What's your opinion on Tokimeki Memorial?

Uses the old anime style which immediately makes it superior to generic modern soyboy ironic moe weebshit.

Japanese, so it is automatically good, even if it is not a favorite genre of game for some.

Never played them but the Neptunia games include an enemy type that is literally, a floating VN screenshot that whacks you with its dialogue box, or breathes fire on you, and one of the variants is based on that series. I was curious about whether they're worth playing.

I don't think any of them have been translated outside of the Girl's Side ones, so unless you know moon, you're out of luck.

I remember seeing the PS1 and Sega Saturn CDs being sold in an old import shop, also fairly surprising that IGA worked on this, guess his idea of Maria Renard worked on his subconscious.

The 2nd one was a masterpiece. Too bad it never got translated and I don't think they'll ever make a dating sim as good as it these days.

Kind of reminds me of a game I played where the strategy guide for it showed up as an enemy.


4d24dd (2)  No.15693188>>15693447

>>15692779

Can you by any chance remember the name of it? I don't think Neptunia does that but some of the major villains are based on pirating devices, and most of the enemies are based on well known vidya enemies (their mascot of sorts is a Dragon Quest slime, but a dog).

Haven't played Tokimeki 4, anyone has? how is it? Did Konami release more? i am afraid with current Konami being complete shit the series is dead.

>>15692295

You sir are a true connoisseur

>>15692271 (OP)

Also check Tokimemo 2, third game is also good but i think emulation is fucked up, only real PS2 master race.

Yeah, Wild Arms 3. Series has a type of recurring enemy in the form of floating books of various sorts, with a bonus boss variant that are "Adult Mags". I was just kind of surprised to suddenly run across one that was an apparent strategy guide (named "Strategy Guide") of the game in question; doesn't match the western strategy guide cover, but might have done so for the Japanese one. It's in The Abyss bonus dungeon, because of course something you'd think of as possibly helpful would try to murder you down there.

I wouldn't call the book enemies "representative" of the series though; and in general it's a bit hard to pin one down in general as what the most direct "Slime" analog is. Closest I can think of being Gobs (goblins, but obviously a lot of RPGs have those), Critters (faced steel balls on springs; they like their "16t/32t" bouncing slam attack), Pillbugs (rolypoly looking things, but spiky), and Balloons (type of weak undead spirit that looks like a wad of tortured faces).

Lots of old jap dating sims absolutely need fan translations.

This one in particular.

Are all translators faggots? Why the hell are the otome games the only translated ones?


63345b (3)  No.15697656>>15697668

>>15697643

If I remember correctly the otome versions are actually quite a bit more popular. For whatever reason disguting fujo's like this shit better.


0bef2a (2)  No.15697668>>15697676

>>15697656

Fujos usually are not the ones translating shit though. It's usually trannys.


63345b (3)  No.15697676

>>15697668

Remember translators do this shit for e fame so they're always going to go after more popular series. They're also probably thirsty fucking nerds as well who want some yeast infected fujo pussy.


9632f0 (2)  No.15697744

>>15697643

I think it's mostly because the otome games are newer. The originals are classics in Japan, but relatively unknown everywhere else. That said, if that one fag is doing Sakura Taisen despite its age, then you'd think someone could do the first Tokimeki game at least.

Daily reminder Tokimeki 3 is an abomination

>>15692295

That's a shitload of buzzwords for the sake of shitposting, but I do agree the old anime styles had their charms. But there is still a good amount of modern VNs with an art style (Watanabe Akio, Sugina Miki, Sumeragi Kohaku, etc) that makes them noticed above the sea of moe

Using a modern artstyle doesn't make it bad, and just because it has an old art style doesn't instantly make it good, retard. Why did I even respond to this weak bait?

Fun series, containing 3 decent games and one amazing one.

Tokimemo 1 is a comfy, fairly realistic game in which you enjoy innocent romance with a variety of cute anime girls while trying to keep your grades up and get through Japanese high school without dying of stress.

Tokimemo 2 is hands-down the best in the series. Gameplay-wise it's very much like the first one, but instead of being in a sweet slice-of-life anime, you're in a crazy comedy. Your girlfriend might turn out to have an evil twin, or be hit by a truck on the way to school (multiple times) - but she's fine. The school play during the culture festival one year is a parody of Lone Wolf and Cub. One of your potential girlfriends is an obnoxious rich girl who brings her butler along. There are a LOT of different girls to choose from, and all of them are cute in their own way.

Tokimemo 3 was kind of a step down; they switched to 3D graphics instead of 2D drawings, and as a side effect the number of girls dropped enormously. The previous game had over a dozen girls, while 3 has 6. Also, they added this horrible system where you had to choose what to wear on dates, which greatly effected the girl's impression of you: all the clothing items names are written in kanji, so unless your Japanese is a lot more advanced you'll have no idea how you're dressed or whether it's "right" until you arrive on your date and she makes a face at you. I've still managed to finish the game multiple times with a lot of saving and reloading; the girls are still cute even if they're 3D, and some of the story elements are fun. (The apparent "delinquent" girl has a plot twist so crazy it feels like it belongs in 2).

Tokimemo 4, so far the final entry, fixes everything wrong with 3 by bringing in features from the parallel Girls' Side series, turns the graphics back to 2D (though they're kind of Live2D animated), and gives you a much better idea of what you're doing. Unfortunately, it also goes back to the storytelling style of the first one (a lot more realistic and less crazy/funny). And worse, the art style is "modern". Gone are the adorable showa-era designs of the previous games; everyone has Kyoani looking faces and bland, realistic hair colours. Still fun. Haru is best girl.

There's also a parallel series, "Tokimeki Memorial Girls' Side", that's the same kind of game but intended for girls, where you have a variety of boys to try and win over. They're, again, more like the original game, less wacky. Cute art style though, especially the weird chibis that look like something a Japanese schoolgirl might doodle in her notebook.
