Posted on 8 years ago by Jake in News | 0 comments
Capcom has provided new details for its free-to-play Japan game, Megami Meguri. These showcase important characters, the Seven Pillar Goddesses, as well as the exams that main character Tsukomo must take to become a full-fledged goddess. Gematsu has provided a wealth of details, but here are some of the more key details, starting with the Seven Pillar Goddesses:
-Ame no Uzume, the goddess of performance and leader of the goddesses, she is calm and intelligent and is known for dances
-Sotorihime, the goddess of song, who showcases her power as a rock star
-Kukurihime, the goddess of binding, is known for trimming and grooming, taking care of the goddesses’ guardian dogs
-Konohana Sakuyahime, the goddess of flower, acts like an idol, seeking and adoring fans
-Toyota Mahime, the goddess of cooking, suffers from stage fright and is often closed off
-Ishikoridome, the goddess of manufacturing, is a builder who can be very aggressive and strong
-Ame no Sagume, the goddess of fortune telling, she actually has a rational personality that doesn’t see fortune-telling as the answer to everything
To become a goddess, Tsukomo must undergo Divinity Exams, where she will need to exhibit certain abilities: will-power, strength, wisdom, kindness, and beauty. To take a Divinity Exam, players must first find offerings at certain station squares, and then go to specific stops for the exams. Completing these exams will progress the story. Completing the exams will also unlock new outfits for Tsukomo, based on the seven goddesses.
For more details, check out the full run-down at Gematsu. You can also see screenshots of the features and watch a new, short trailer below:

One of the big items highlighted in Nintendo’s new post is a photo of a working Famicom Disk System Disk Writer. This was used many years ago to print games onto blank cartridges. Other than that, Nintendo opens a Famicom and the Famicom Disk System expansion, showing it all in mint condition.
