It's pretty nuts that literally one of the pioneers of dating sims and a culturally important milestone in complex social systems in games just never made it here. The only way to play it in English at the moment is the shitty SNES version that got translated. But it's missing so much compared to the PS1/Saturn versions such as voice acting, more events, and more. Tim Rogers described playing the SNES version as "like watching a movie for the 1st time muted with subtitles on".

Seriously, why doesn't Konami just throw this over here, especially with that Switch remaster that is about to drop? They dont have to rerecord voice lines in English or anything. A ton of modern games definitely owe to the innovations from this mid-90s PC Engine game and it's kinda wild we never got this in modern times. I heard people are trying to translate the Saturn version now at least but it's probably still a long way away right now >_>

If you want to know more about it, watch this super quick video on its history and impact I guess

My favorite was Yuko (although Yuina, Yumi, and Nozomi were all very cool too) but yeah, it's a shame we never got the mainline TokiMemo games

It would be god-tier if a TokiMemo Legacy Collection with all 4 mainline games translated in English came out

Yeah that video review is pretty legendary at this point. I kinda want to see him actually cover the supposedly superior 2nd game or perhaps the inferior 3rd game but at this point, it'd be nice for him to release anything at all.

It's one the IP Konami revived and gets Switch remaster alongside Suikoden, MGS, Castlevania, SH, etc.

But even with that, Konami still refuse to localize it. It's really just stupid at this point. It should be easy money for them because they are just porting old games to modern console.

The 10 hour review of Los Angeles Noire he just released on Sunday wasn't enough?

Wait why the hell did this not show up on my feed, goddammit

Also I swear LA Noire is not a long game lol. 10 hours is probably close to the game's length if you don't go for every scouring of the world
