Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
Return to PopoloCrois: A Story of Seasons Fairytale was the best-selling game in Japan for the week of June 15. In Media Create‘s latest report, the sales tracker shares more information about the game’s performance.
Return to PopoloCrois: A Story of Seasons Fairytale managed to sell 46,000 copies in its first week. With that, it sold through 58.99 percent of its initial shipment.
When compared to previous Harvest Moon (Bokuj? Monogatari) games on 3DS, the first week sell-through was lower and the game got off to a slow start. Harvest Moon: A New Beginning had a 74.23 percent sell-through rate and sold 81,000 copies in its first week in 2012 while Story of Seasons had a 73.07 percent sell-through rate with 131,000 copies sold in its first week in 2014. As Return to PopoloCrois: A Story of Seasons Fairytale is strongly derived from the PopoloCrois series, it can be said that the game hasn’t brought in many Harvest Moon fans yet.

Senran Kagura producer has thought about different genres – dodgeball, pinball, water-shooting
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 2 Comments
The Senran Kagura games have typically focused on action. However, producer Kenichiro Takaki is “constantly thinking about different genres” that the series could be involved with as well.
Speaking with Kotaku, Takaki shared some of the ideas that he’s thought about in the past. He brought up a dodgeball game, a pinball game, and even a “water-shooting game”.
Below are Takai’s full comments:
Yeah, as the series goes along, there are a lot more unique characters within it, so I’m constantly thinking about different genres. I always wanted to do a dodgeball game where you hit them and it just rips everything off. A pinball game, or a water-shooting game where they get drenched. I always think of something different. I always want a challenge.
