December 31st, 2011, by in Translation
Both JAST USA and MangaGamer have delivered their year-end updates. From the JAST USA end, it looks like Saya no Uta and Hanachirasu will be sold separately, although there will be a discount for buying them together. The two games along with Sumaga are scheduled to be out before Anime Expo. Meanwhile, MangaGamer states that they’re working on a 4th hard copy game from the J-List distribution deal, which will be a game they have already released that they are trying to fix up. Furthermore, they’re also aiming for a end-of-February or beginning-of-March release for DEARDROPS, while the trial version is currently out for people to try out the game. Dengeki Stryker and Harukoi Otome are still in translation, with the former aimed at a release by the time Anime Expo comes around. As for ef – the first tale, it’s still undergoing review by NNL of the latest build from minori, which if it passes, will allow the release to proceed.

Approximately one year after the license announcement, JAST USA has announced that copies of their latest eroge, My Girlfriend is the President, are now shipping. This bizarre comedy featuring spoofs of various world leaders was originally introduced to many people via a Hollywood-style promotional trailer complete with the “movie-trailer man” voice in English. The release will be based on the TLWiki project, with project members having worked with JAST USA on the release. This is the second game to be released in the JAST Densetsu lineup, a new brand JAST USA created for “higher quality titles” according to their Anime Expo panel.
