(CriticalIndieGamer) Despite being a Japanese phenomenon, Hatsune Miku, the entirely synthetic vocaloid pop sensation, has only recently set her sights on conquering Western shores. Landing first on PlayStation 3 and Vita, and later hopping over the Atlantic for a performance on Letterman, she appears to be enjoying a surprising amount of mainstream success. With her colourful aesthetic, bouncy synthpop and blue hair rivaled in length only by Marge Simpson, one can only wonder why it took so long to bring Miku’s delights to the rest of the world. Project Mirai DX is only the third Miku game to be released in Europe, following up from the Project Diva F games on Playstation 3 and Vita, but it brings some strikingly adorable changes to the series and is sure to cement its popularity outside of Japan.
Hatsune Miku has become an international icon. What began as a singing synthesizer turned into a character recognized around the world that stars in multiple forms of media. In the realm of games, people recognize her as a rhythm game star. But what else do people need to know about her?
The venerable Nintendo 3DS is entering its twilight years. After a rocky, uncertain launch, the system built a following and a library that allowed it to become one of the most successful systems released, and it certainly has the top-tier games to show for it. Before [people] put the handheld into long-term storage (or if [someone is] just now getting one), check out [Michibiku's] guide for the best the system has to offer!
The PlayStation 4 version of Hatsune Miku: Project Diva Future Tone will be playable at Snow Miku 2016 from February 6 to 7 at the Sapporo Factory Room, Sega announced.
