I dunnoooooo. How do you use two fingers on an iPad/iPhone for two characters? Seems like either pointer and middle with one hand, or pointers on both hands. Seems... clumsy.

Redrawn graphics..? I personally don't like. They look pretty blurry and unappealing. But the High Quality Music I'm looking forward to.

The twitter integration and Tinpin wifi thing are definite positives. I loved Tin Pin.

Overall though, for 20 dollars... I don't know... It doesn't seem worth it for such little new.

A) The battle system is different.
B) How do these look blurry? Is your eyesight fading? They look a lot more crisp than the DS version. The iPhone has more power and it shows.
C) How much were you willing to pay for the original? Or did we all pirate it like I did?

Seems like something that would work better on bigger screens.

Because there's definitely not a device in the market right now with a 9.7in screen that runs iOS.

I'm hoping they're not lazy and make all th graphics "retina" for the iPhone/iPod touch with said screens. Same for the iPad.

If that's the case, it'll look way better than the DS counterparts

People who are annoyed about the countdown only have themselves to blame.

It actually looks like an improvement on the original game, I'd personally won't buy it as I've had my fill of the game already but then it wasn't targeted at those like me.

A) I know the Battle System is different. But as far as I can tell you control both characters with the touch screen. That seems odd considering you have to consistently attack with Neku and then do other stuff with Beat/Joshua/Shiki. I could be completely wrong, but as for how that goes, I just kind of think that'd be a bit clumsy with the iPad if you have to use two fingers that wont reach across the whole screen, forcing you to use one hand and switch back and forth or use both hands, which doesn't really work well when you're on the go all the time. Your fingers covering most of the screen on the iPhone is... meh? Granted, that's figuring you have to use 2 fingers, you might not at all. Maybe I'm thinking about it too strangely.

B) Alright, maybe not blurry. But they look... bold, with no added detail? (Edit: I had the wonderful Idea that not clicking on the pictures would let me see how well they are actually drawn, I'm a moron and I feel extremely stupid.) They definitely look BETTER than the DS graphics, but I'm just saying it looks a bit strange. (To me) And yes, I do have eye problems actually. =P

C) I payed full price for the original. Even if I didn't though, 20 dollars for a game that's been out for years and came out at 30/35 is a bit steep, In my opinion. I personally wouldn't pay that for mostly the same game again. And I loved it.

They can improve the game as much as they want. The thing is, people who already played the original game, played it to death and thus any replay value of the iOS game is gone.

So wait let me get this straight:

>This countdown shows up that ends up being a port of the game for the iOS devices.
>A tweet from a NA localizer says that we should wait until the end, teasing us even more that there's something else
>Ends up being a $20.00 port

And yet people bitched and made a campaign to get the ending of Mass Effect 3 changed but nobody does anything for Square to get their shit together, after they've been trolling us and been turning to crap ever since the PS3 came out...? Weird.

TWEWY was one of the best games on the DS and I loved it, if the game was getting a re-release on another platform like the 3DS, PSP or Vita, I would understand the 20$ price, however I'm not a fan of digital content so I'd never buy a game for that price for an iOS or Android, I'm not a fan of this price for a rehash of the game (same goes for most of the rehashes that they put for those prices).

Post it on the other thread, ought to post it here. Mods, please remove this if this consider a violation.

Walkthrough in english.



I wish iPhone would die. It ruin the gaming industry. I remember seeing every little child holding a DS. Now it's either an iPhone with Angry Birds or iPad with Fruit Ninja. I don't hate Apple, but I hate their iOS products. This is why Microsoft Surface + Macbook Pro w/ Retina + Nintendo 3DS is the ultimate bundle. Gaming and power together. iOS so-called "Gamers"... just back away. I got my values... so you can keep yours, alright?

1. a flat slab of stone, clay, or wood, used esp. for an inscription.
2. a small disk or cylinder of a compressed solid substance, typically a measured amount of a medicine or drug; a pill.
3. a writing pad.

Are you referring to an iPad? Or an Android? Or an Egyptian's Tablet?

On-Topic: Japan's Solo Remix is already on the App Store.

No. Chinese Android tablet. Her parents would never buy her an iPad even though she asked for one.

Why did Square Enix port it to iPhone. I don't get people.

Square Enix could have done multiple platforms, and they should have. It would have been much better to play on a PC with an actual controller and a larger screen. I need to say, Square Enix, get Outta my face!!!

Remember when I talked about how everyone disliked that trailer? Well square has shamelessly disabled opinions on the video, so that red bar is history now.

Almost, if you look on your youtube video and look at the listing for a video, even if its ratings are disabled, you can see its ratings.

That trailer got 280 likes and 2,779 dislikes before they disabled ratings.

A $20 port is horrendous? But we see a cavalcade of HD re-releases from all sides and shameless ports with no enhancements thrown across every platform for much more money than they're worth and we're complaining about a $20 port.

If this was the same news but you swapped iOS with any other device (PC, 3DS, Vita, Xbox 360, PS3) then it'd be a huge sea of applause. But it's just a bunch of generic Square Enix hate and a bunch of generic iOS hate rolled into one lump of whiny, self-entitled gamers.

If the Square-Enix fanbase weren't such pussies maybe Square-Enix might actually put out some quality games. Punish Square-Enix by not supporting their low-quality shit and then they might actually give a fuck.
