Eh, I may pick it up later if it gets really cheap. It sounds like it doesn't have any KB+M support.

There's no reason beat 'em ups couldn't provide decent KB+M input, aside from the fact street fighter audience is autistic and refuse to believe a button masher could possibly be played on anything besides a nintendo controller. You have 4 buttons and a directional pad holy shit there is NO REASON a keyboard + mouse can't easily blow that controller the fuck out of the water.

I don't have a console controller and don't feel like spending $33 to buy one from Valve. (At least with the Gabetroller I'd know those shitty, weak little springs in a controller's directional pad wouldn't wear out and then you'd have a useless lump of plastic. I had an original XBAWKZ and the controller ended up permanently veering because the shitty little directional knob's spring wore out on one side)

I have to disagree. Steamspy isn't very accurate in general and first weeks even less but it's a good approximation and it doesn't dramatically change 2 weeks after. If something sells 100k, it doesn' suddenly go 200k 2 weeks after.

it's a port from a handheld that took very little effort to produce and is a niche title from Japan.

I'd say having that many players is actually a decent amount. It's not impressive or anything, but it's certainly enough to make them a nice little extra bit of profit.

I doubt it'll be enough for them to bring a bunch more games over though.
>>
>>339898527
Don't be delusional, porting a game to pc isn't very costly and it almost always gets you some profit, though it's pcoket change.

I agree on the second part though, the PC community is a meme and has been so since around 2008. Why on earth would you whore your franchise to that cancer, you end up hurting the whole series in the end. Publishers/developers should have higher standards. How about you make a fucking new game instead of giving scraps to entitled underage faggots?

I don't have anything against the games themselves but you're beyond deluded if you think they're not the nichest of the niche. Combine that with the biggest normie game distribution platform and what's the result?

And also, the models don't make the artwork justice, they're extremely shit and unproportionate in comparison. They all have the same ass and tits are just variations of the same balloons.
For a man that claims to be the biggest lover of life and hometown, the models in his game sure are bad.

I don't care about the game, but the numbers are bullshit and the guy just uses it to get Patreon money. That's that. One developer came out and said the numbers were "within 10%" for one of their games, and completely off the mark for the rest. The fact is that Steam Spy cannot pull up backend data for private Steam accounts and Friends Only accounts. Only public information.

Oh, and Valve officially stopped supporting the API Steam Spy uses to pull data in March because it wasn't accurate! Whew.

Steamspy is slow to update its numbers in general. He's saying that looking at the numbers usually just plain aren't accurate on the site until about 2 weeks after release. Doesn't have to do with more people buying the game, has to do with Steamspy getting a more complete list of all the users who have purchased it.

The first Neptunia game sold really well for what it is. Though it's mostly because japanese games with a budget on steam were a novelty and it was a way for all the cancerous ironic weebs on steam to show how much of a "such a weeb xD" they were. Basically the game sold well because it quickly become a meme.

What's sad is that because of that the community became shit and the series went from being a niche little game with a dedicated fanbase to steam shovelware for meme audience. I'm not even a Neptunia fan and I noticed this shit.

It's a port of a 2-3 year old game. That's it. The hype, what little it may have had, is dead by now, and this appeals to an exceptionally small group of people. If this was a simultaneous Vita/Windows release, then you'd have a point. But Japanese corporations operate exclusively on bullying and threatening smaller companies, I wouldn't doubt that Sony employs tactics that would make Yamauchi's Nintendo blush.

There is no smoke without fire. If consolefriends complain it's because they are noticing the whole thing going down the shitter though I agree they bitch too much about something that is basically inevitable.

The big problem is that PC users come out as ignorant, casual and entitled and tend to shitpost alot which creates friction when they flood en masse in tight established niche communities.

But yeah you're right, what the fuck, the threads were about which senran's butt would you sniff, it was already trash, how do you even ruin that shit?

Funny how this happens almost exclusively to Japanese games. I've never seen this happen for western games, then again, most western games have day 1 PC releases.

Or maybe niche japanese games have different audiences and their communities are made of different people? Maybe it's not "le evil sonyggers" and it just happens that these games come out on sony consoles because sony is popular in japan and it's more or less just a coincidence?

$30 is just too much on a platform riddled with good F2P games and cheap but amazing games like Terraria and MnB:Warband

They literally have a fucking monopoly in Japan. The Wii U is dead, the Xbox is dead, that only leaves the PS4. Of course the Japanese would make games for the only relevant console. Plus, all Japanese games sell better in the West than they do in Japan, anyway.

I bet you think Persona is popular and mainstream too. You people are fucking retarded holy shit
>>
>>339903041
No. Call of Duty is mainstream. Angry Birds is mainstream.

Dark Souls is a difficult Japanese role playing game.
Even if it's popular for its niche, it's still very niche.
>>
>>339903164
>Plus, all Japanese games sell better in the West than they do in Japan, anyway.
That's not a hard thing to do 50k-100k is considered good sales depending on the game's budget.

Nigger, literally every normalfag is playing this shit. Souls games stopped being niche after the PC release of DaS.

You can't go and call a million seller franchise "niche". It might not be as popular as CoD or Angry Birds, but it's far from being niche.

Japan is more populated than any European country besides Russia. Japan is about a third of the size of America, but doesn't get a third of the sales for Japanese home consoles. Japan is mobile as fuck.

Funny enough I always see mustards come into threads about games not on their consoles and shitpost either with an article or something saying "we'll get your games soon fucking cucksoles" or something like that.
Don't blame the people who actually own and play the games for not wanting you people.
>>
>>339903583
If niche isn't refering to a small group of people what does it mean then? Genuinely curious.
>>
>>339903521
And? That proves that Japan's mindset of "make games only for Japan" is their own undoing. I'm not asking for CoD type games, just to release their games outside their region. Plus, Japanese games can still have a worldwide appeal and succeed, though some were purely regional appeal (New Zealand Story and TwinBee were huge in Europe but not USA, for example).

PC is only relevant in the west, the west has more buyers, ergo it's not unlikely for the west only PC version to outsell the Japan only console version.

>it didn't take too much manpower and effort for this to port

The game does not support 4:3 aspect ratio, which is Windows' default "safe" ratio. It shouldn't be hard to make the renderer draw a wider or narrower screen, but apparently it is.

It's also called application.exe. Literally fucking application.

Japanese numbers. They're tracked by two different magazines.

Senran Kagura SV launched at the same time as the anime and a Vita price drop. It was a flash in the pan though. They overprinted Senran Kagura 2 then both the Vita and PS4 versions of Estival Versus sold the same numbers as Senran Kagura 2. Still respectable numbers but nowhere near as high as it was for SV
>>
>>339896152
Steam is no longer a healthy marketplace for releasing these kinds of games without any marketing.

Steam is now basically another App Store where you can only find success if you're 'noticed' and 'blow up'.

Even with only 7000 sales at $27 each, they already made a profit.

The cost of porting a game like this to PC is very small, and the publisher will see 75% of the money from each sale on Steam, rather than the ~25% they would get from a physical sale.

It's not unheard of. Just usually those levels are reserved for popular anime or Miku.

SK2 dropped to 46,000
Then 45,000 for EV Vita

Fuck it, why not have the game for free then. The truth is, is that developers spend a certain amount of time and money on games and they need a return/profit. If you think that all games should be $5 and that the industry will survive like that you are mistaken friend. Of course we have the AAA devs go over the pendulum and overcharges for garbage, but come on son, some developers do deserve the full price on their games. Whether it be this game or not.
