Press Release Hyperdimension Neptunia: Producing Perfection
Santa Ana, Calif. (October 23, 2013) NIS America is proud to announce the acquisition of Hyperdimension Neptunia PP (working title) for the PlayStationŽVita system for both North American and European markets in 2014. This title has a planned release for both retail and PSN formats. Developed by IDEA FACTORY and COMPILE HEART, the fan-favorite Hyperdimension Neptunia CPU goddesses are back, and this time it is your job to guide them to become Gamindustri’s most popular and up-and-coming idols!
About the game:
The player takes on the role of the main character, who happens to fall into Gamindustri and is immediately hired by one of the four CPUs—Neptune, Noire, Blanc, and Vert—to be their producer and manage their idol careers. Get your training wheels on, ladies, because a new producer is in town and the fate of Gamindustri hangs in the balance! Will you be able to properly raise these CPUs into idols, or will their citizens be stolen away from them by the popular idol group MOB-48!? Teach these girls to sing, dance, and properly promote themselves to the general populace thanks in part to your expertise in training video game idols back on Earth. As the girls’ popularity rises, they will be able to join one another in singing duets, or maybe even come together for a full ensemble!

Story
Gamindustri: One of many parallel universes protected by four goddesses known as CPUs. Long ago, these four CPUs engaged in a war for supremacy known as the War of the Guardians. However, this war weakened their protective hold on the world inhabited by their people, and in turn it was flooded by monsters under the influence of an individual known as Arfoire.During the War of the Guardians, one of the CPUs—Neptune—was defeated by the others and hurled down to the world's surface from the heavens. The drop caused Neptune to lose her memories, as learned by Compaand IF, who happen upon the fallen girl. A mysterious book containing knowledge of all Gamindustri'shistory suddenly speaks out to Neptune, Compa, and IF. With the assistance of this sentient book, the trio embark on an extraordinary journey across four different nations on a quest to save the entire world!"
Key Features and Differences from the PlayStationŽ3 version
An overhauled battle system! HyperdimensionNeptuniaRe;Birth1 takes the original game and equips it with the battle system of HyperdimensionNeptuniaVictory! This gives the player a more in-depth gaming experience!
New scenario, new ending! The main story and event scenes are renewed from the PlayStation3 version. The core storyline will remain mostly the same, but the conversations between characters are all new! A new ending has been added as well! This will allow players returning from the PlayStation3 version to enjoy the game anew!
New “Remake System”! A new system has been added to HyperdimensionNeptuniaRe;Birth1: the “Remake System”! It lets players customize and make changes to the game system itself by obtaining “Plans”!

So besides looking like a child porn simulator, and nerd masterbatory fantasy machine, what else does this 'game' have going for it?

Re: Hyperdimension Neptunia
Its better then a video game about killing people like "Assassin's Creed" or some other crime like "Grand Theft Auto", just to name two of the biggest game titles.

Which of course are the only two games we play here.
Perhaps instead of just bombarding us with press releases and videos that any of us could find on the web, you tell us why you're excited for this game, what you do and don't like about it, why we should consider plunking down some of our hard earned cash and spend some of our limited time playing it.
Just a thought.

Re: Hyperdimension Neptunia
I don't like that "Hyperdimension Neptunia: Producing Perfection" is only being released on the PS Vita and not on PS3.
I bought my PS Vita for this game and "Hyperdimentional Neptunia re;birth1" If it wasn't for the Hyperdimension Neptunia series I wouldn't even own a PS3.

Re: Hyperdimension Neptunia
I can't really answer that because I am new to playing video games and have nothing to compare it to.
As for everyone else at least I know now why non main stream games are not talked about here, everyone gets chased away. I will never make that mistake again and start threads in the video game forum.

Re: Hyperdimension Neptunia
Nobody is chasing you anywhere. You still haven't answered Supermallet's question. This is a discussion forum and we all like different games. Why is this one special to warrant 10 sequels? Why is it worth buying a PS3 for? Pictures, vids and press releases are a good start but share your own thoughts about the game and why we should care.

Re: Hyperdimension Neptunia
Sorry that we expect you to engage in actual conversation. We talk about all different kinds of games here without a problem, so I highly doubt we're chasing anyone away.
Is this how the Anime forum works? Everyone just posts data dumps and nobody discusses it?

Re: Hyperdimension Neptunia
The issue isn't whether the game is "mainstream" or not...there are some serious questions about the content of these games. And I find it very telling that you haven't even attempted to correct any of the assumptions being made here.

Re: Hyperdimension Neptunia
I was curious enough to look into this series. It seems it's only notable for two things. First, it parodies the console wars with four factions meant to represent Nintendo, Sony, Microsoft and Sega, supposedly with a fair amount of in-jokes and references. Second, it lets you put custom skins on the characters, which seems to be popular for making all the pubescent girls naked. If you're new to gaming, the first doesn't seem like it would hold much appeal to you. So, is your above argument that games that let you ogle nude renderings of underage girls are morally superior to games that let you virtually commit other crimes?

Re: Hyperdimension Neptunia
b) Look at the original videos, most ofthe girls are definitely drawn without the assets you describe.
Never played the original PS3 games, since I heard the first was super repetitive and there's a ton of JRPGs that I still haven't gone through. I'm intrigued by the Vita version (though I don't need earbuds and whatnot). So what the difference between the original version and the new Vita one? Did they at least eliminate some of the grinding?
