    Newcomers and people who haven't played any games since PD extend because of a lack of hardware. The early games had like 20-30 songs, so by those standards 111 is an awesome deal.

      sadly won't happen as much as i would love it. Sakurai has stated time and time again that its video game characters only. She's a mascot of a voice synthesizer program. (she existed long before the Project Diva games). It's the same reason why anime characters won't ever be in Smash. Smash is about the celebration of video game characters (as Sakurai stated himself)
      Plus the legal hurdles between Yamaha and Sega.

Ask if there’s one on the switch when i gave it a try, we found out yeah and it was this one with the mega pack bundle with the game for 48$. She instantly got it cause she loves Miku and playing handheld. I even got the game cause i love rhythm games 😂

      Seriously? Dang... Glad I'm looking around and didn't buy anything yet. I still have my psp and Project Diva 2nd (69 songs) and unfortunately fully in Japanese so I still sometimes forget what the menus mean if it's been a while. I thought about it and love having the handheld option which is why I would think about the Switch version if I do get it and not Project Diva F (70 songs only but a full 60 bucks). 100+ songs for 40 or 50 is definitely worth it cause old and new songs.

    Really can't justify buying this... I have ALL the previous games, including Future Tone with an arcade controller. This game only has about 10 new songs, and doesn't add anything else that is significant... They are just milking the series at this point.
    Neat for newcomers, but not worth it at all for longtime fans. It's not the first time it's portable either, the Vita had 3 games, as wel as the (admittedly aged) psp, but still.

    • @callumdointhings5
      @callumdointhings5 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      You're not wrong but im not gonna lie I got more into this one for some reason aha. Though PSA It still does that trash where you have to beat Hard to unlock the fun difficulties and the new touch screen mode is also trash
      The joy con buttons are just so good since they're all separated, and portable play is amazing. I have it on Vita too but who really carries that with them anymore lol. I think the pick up and play nature of it is just better on Switch lol it's easy to just quickly pick up and play for 5 minutes. Ps4 you have to commit a little more lol
      I set the icons to be arrows that are the same colour as the PlayStation buttons which is a super nice touch aha playing with ABXY was beyond frustrating

    Thank you for reviewing this game without any bias, but as an aforementioned veteran to the Project Diva series, I found it distracting that you didn't have the song's on screen audio playing sync'd up with the note chart that was being played... if that makes sense whatsoever. Pretty much the entire time it was "Catch The Wave"'s audio.
    Another somewhat small nitpick is that you didn't show off any "HARD" mode charts, and I'm aware that not everyone is a veteran like myself since game 1 on PSP (I'm assuming you guys at NL aren't), but it would have been nice to represent some gameplay above "NORMAL" vs just showcasing "EASY" and "NORMAL".
    Lastly for the nitpicks, the game indeed does run smoothly with all the decisions Sega made when developing the game, but there are songs where the framerate is both 30 fps and 60 fps at the same time. What do I mean by that? Well, in some songs, like "Senbonzakura" for example when and where there are several characters on screen dancing around, the PV (Promotional Video/Background video) runs at 30 fps, where as the actual note chart pattern runs at 60 fps. It doesn't really deter from gameplay, but that's just a fun fact in case you didn't know that.
    I've had this installment since its Japanese release (I got the 10th anniversary edition/limited edition bundle from retailer AmiAmi.com) back on its release on February 13th of this year and I admittedly haven't been playing it super much, but when I do get the mind set to play I enjoy the living *ahem* out of it. It's quite literally yes a sister game to the PS4's and Arcade's Future Tone, but I also consider it to basically be a slightly watered down port of Future Tone from PS4 to Nintendo Switch. You can argue with me on that if you'd like, but that's how it feels for me. Lastly, I'm sad that among the 135+ songs available (with DLC factored into that number) it doesn't have some Future Tone staples like "High School Days -Diva Edit-" or other fan favorites. Anyway, thanks again, and thanks again for reviewing this game with no bias.
