So, About That Aksys Otome Game Survey…
Games from Idea Factory are examples of the genre.
I was hoping to come back with a definite yes (or no), but that’s not the answer I received. "You should come to Anime Expo, maybe attend our panel," Aileen Viray, Assistant Marketing Manager, teased.
Aksys is just one of the video game companies with an Anime Expo panel. We hear there is another company, one that has dabbled with the otome genre, attending. Of course this does not guarantee any otome games for North America. Just sayin’.
Stay tuned because next week we’re going to run our fan powered interview with Aksys.
Wow, that’s so weird! I just posted a topic about this to Aksys to!
I really hope to hear a confirmation or denial sooner or later. This is killing me!
I wonder if it’s going to be for DS or PSP if so. Gah, if PSP looks like I’d have to buy one. Was hoping for Growlanser taboot. Think you can make that happen to Aksys? Pretty pwease? =3
I don’t think it would sell great but I do think it will sell well. I know a forum dedicated to Tokimeki specifically, there was a whole team working on the translation of the second one. So many supporters on there. If they targeted anime watchers and other women/girls in the right way then I think it would sell fairly well.
Besides, no one thought 999 would sell well when it was first localized so I think otome games have a chance!
They aren’t the same, though. Otome games are closer to dating sims than dramatic visual novels. Not to say, of course, that otome games aren’t well-written (I wouldn’t know), but they’re ultra-niche.
I don’t Tokimeki would sell well even with a passionate fanbase. Sakura Wars doesn’t seem to have sold well at all and it also has a passionate fanbase.
True, Otome’s are closer to the dating sim genre than anything but some are actually more visual-novel games with a hint or romance (Yo-Jin-Bo for example). It also seems more and more Otome’s are even taking a more visual novel adventure feel to them and adding in the option of finding love instead of just making them full of optional love patterns.
True, Sakura Wars didn’t take off so well but I think that was because of the platforms they were released on (PS2/Wii). If Aksys localizes the DS dating sims I honestly think they’d sell. Many girls, who aren’t very big gamers, have DS systems (my sister and cousin are prime examples) and are always trying to find new games that fit their genre.

If you really think about it there are dating-sim elements in various series too; Harvest Moon, Yakuza, Heavy Rain, Lost in Blue, 999, shoot — Hamtaro even has some things in it! I really really want to play Tokimeki Memorial someday,
