Senran Kagura 2 sells through 49% of initial shipment, Dragon Ball Heroes: Ultimate Mission 2 sees 43% sell-through rate
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 3 Comments
Senran Kagura 2: Deep Crimson managed to sell 46,494 units in its first week on the Japanese market. Unfortunately for Marvelous, that’s the lowest debut for any Senran Kagura game and it’s about half of what Senran Kagura: Shinovi Versus did at launch. Deep Crimson also sold through only 49.13 percent of its initial shipment while Shinovi Versus, the series’ last entry, sold 94,324 copies at launch with a 93.37% sell-through rate.
Dragon Ball Heroes: Ultimate Mission 2 also hit Japan last week, but the game performed quite a bit better. It had a low sell-through rate (42.89 percent) like Senran Kagura 2, but the game moved 81,584 copies. The title is currently on track with Ultimate Mission 1, which sold 88,386 copies in its first week and went on to sell 290,000 copies.

Etrian Odyssey II Untold: The Knight of the Fafnir director shares more details
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 1 Comment
Famitsu recently published an interview with Etrian Odyssey Untold II: The Knight of Fafnir producer and director Shigeo Komori.
First, here’s what Komori said about changes from the previous game:
“Our thought was to make an Etrian Odyssey game that focuses on the characters and story that many people can enjoy, and that development concept principle has not changed. Also, the subtitle of the game, ‘The Knight of Fafnir’ is about the protagonist.”
“Last time it was the subtitle of ‘The Millennium Girl,’ which revolved around the heroine’s story. However, this time it will be about the player’s role as the protagonist, and how his friends overcome obstacles in the fantasy RPG you’ll get to enjoy.”
Komori also shared the following details:
– “Fafnir” is the name of the protagonist’s power that allows him to transform
– Komori states that it will completely transform his appearance while giving him a big boost in stats
– It also brings about a variety of different skills he can use
– Using this transformation ability can easily change the tides in battle
– It’ll also have its limits
– The heroine Arianna is of the “Princess” class
– The game’s character designer Yuji Himukai put quite the effort into her design
– Himukai included roughly 20 different expressions for all the other characters
– Arianna will have over 50 different expressions in the game
– There will also be animated scenes and voice acting like Etrian Odyssey Untold: The Millennium Girl
– There’s about twice the volume of voice-acting
– New still-frame event styles
– Supports up to 8 save slots

Etrian Odyssey II Untold: The Knight of the Fafnir character details
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
The official Etrian Odyssey II Untold: The Knight of the Fafnir website has details about three supporting characters in the game. You’ll find information about each below.
Flavio
– Protagonist’s childhood friend
– Currently a member of the Mizgarz expedition group
– Always-cheerful, talkative, and the life of the party of the guild
– Straightforward, so he’s often the guy who keeps others in check.
Chloe
– War Magus
– Traveled alongside Bertrand
– Strange deadpan girl who doesn’t talk much
– Only budges when she finds something interesting
– The few times she actually speaks, she can be a little outspoken, but never means any harm
Bertrand
– The protagonist meets Bertrand at the Ginnunga Ruins
– This is where a certain ceremony takes place every hundred years
– Bertrand is a feeble and irresponsible guy
– This kind of goes against the ideal image of his class as a paladin
