iAX: "Don’t be fooled by the packaging: Go! Go! Nippon! from OVERDRIVE (Kira Kira, Dengeki Stryker) is much more of a narrated tourist guidebook than the visual novel it claims to be. It’s a game with a mission, and that mission is to take the (non-Japanese) player step-by-step through a visit to Tokyo. It’s very focused on that goal, and everything else is merely a sidelight. The girls, Makoto and Akira, are essentially tour books with faces, so if you’re going into the game expecting some kind of emotional response to the contents, you’re going to be disappointed."
iAX: "We at MangaGamer are proud to announce Go Go Nippon!
Have you ever thought of playing a Visual Novel, but didn’t know what’s best to start with? Or didn’t want to spend a lot to find out? Have you ever wondered what it would be like to travel to Japan? To spend a week there with two beautiful girls? Then Go Go Nippon is the perfect game for you!"
iAX: "MangaGamer officially announced on Togetter, that the production of the project has begun and will be called Go Go Japan. With a hopeful release date set for Anime Expo 2011 and a relatively low price range between $10-15.00, the game will focus around a male protagonist who has decided to study abroad for one-week in Japan and gets a guided tour of the place by a pair of sisters."
Err...good luck with that.
It'll be interesting to see how such a visual novel sells over here.
