Outside of the arcades this will be the first time in ages dende has looked so good. Looking forward to this in December bring on my second job as a train driver in japan Choo choo
It does look pretty great! I'm hoping that there's at least some modes that are a bit less arcade-y / intensive, so that I can just chill the choo out and take in the scenery without having to worry too much about the pressures of y'know, getting to places in time, and not fatally derailing a multi-carriage beast.
Super excited about this tbh. Densha de GO! FINAL was a game I got for the nostalgia at the time - like a souvenir but it is actually a very good game anyway with the chain mechanic. Not sure about how the gameplay works on this edition (though have been following it as an arcade title a little).
They mention other lines as the Saikyou and the Narita Express. As much as I hope that these will be well featured, these lines do share some routes (if not actually lines) with the Yamanote so it may only be those sections. I really hope not as they go quite far. I think both lines have been in other versions too.
SO I was going to order from yesasia (not used in ages as not imported in the last two generations much) but I see people are using Nin-Nin. Is there a reason to prefer that?
I don't think I'm going to be able to ignore this.
I'm no densha otaku but the sound of the train on the rails and the announcements / station jingles gives me a warm, fuzzy feeling as it brings back some great memories.
There’s no rhyme or reason that anyone’s found with amazon japan it seems totally random what they restrict. Maybe check again once released as sometimes the exact same item ends up changing to allow international shipping I swear they spin a wheel and blanket restrict a bunch of random items.
Same here. I think one of the main attractions for me has been the Japan factor. Thinking about it, it seems a bit mad that I have a bit of unconditional love for Japanese things. Like, my wife will show me something and on first sight it may seem boring, but if she then says "it's Japanese", I show an interest lol. I'm an idiot.
It stems from the Mega drive days. Amazing box art on my imports. The "best" games were from Japan as far as I was concerned Look at the Strider boxart for goodness sake!
Then we get Shenmue, and later the ultimate Japan simulator, Yakuza.
Densha De GO!, Tokyo Bus Guide and more offer a slice of Japan. Those green JR Yamanote trains are cute. Haha.
I have learned how to play it now, thanks to the brilliant Densha De GO! FINAL.
Next, I hope to be flying over Japan in MS Flight Sim. Jet de GO! isn't the same.
