Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
SEGA sent out another update pertaining to Hatsune Miku: Project Mirai DX today.
First, we have a look at the launch edition – pictured above. Pre-orders and a limited number of launch copies will feature a collectible outer box, Hatsune Miku wallet chain, and 19 double-sided AR cards.
We also have news about how StreetPass and SpotPass are supported in Hatsune Miku: Project Mirai DX, along with screenshots. Here’s the latest:
Hatsune Miku is full of content beyond just the rhythm game, and among the ones we think people will spend an inordinate amount of time with are the StreetPass features! Our personal favorite is being able to create your own Miku tune using a variety of instruments, including vocaloids, traditional instruments, synthesizers and chiptunes! Use the sounds and the keyboard to create a four-bar tone that you can share with anyone you StreetPass.
The best part? As you change your individual tune, the friends you’ve StreetPassed with will get an update over SpotPass!
The same goes for your profile card, which you can design by selecting a variety of backgrounds and looks, change character poses, create a tagline, write your own message, and more as options are unlocked by completing the rhythm game! Show off your Mirai DX prowess!
