Front Wing and 0verflow at AX 2010
July 8th, 2010, by in Conventions, Translation
We had the chance to have a nice chat with two of the new companies present at Anime Expo 2010 this year with MangaGamer — Front Wing (known for their Jibril and Time Leap games) and 0verflow (of School Days fame). It looks like Front Wing hasn’t really considered an overseas release yet, but they’ve started thinking about it. On the other hand, 0verflow, who released an English translation of the trial version of Summer Days for April Fool’s Day one year, seems very interested in releasing English versions of their games, although they do outline some issues that are impeding progress in that area.

MangaGamer at AX 2010: The Booths
July 7th, 2010, by in Conventions
MangaGamer occupied two islands of booths this year in the exhibition hall, instead of having a totally enclosed 18+ booth like last year. They brought a lot more companies this year, and this can be seen in the variety of booths they had. However, the main feature of their booths was probably the live stage, where they held a total of six miniature concerts over three days.
