| N-Forza:
I hope ZUN's still interested in the overseas market too because this could be a good way to bring all these games to English speakers, translation or no. |
| Gpop:
This is a pretty interesting development, though I'm very sure this is ZUN mostly doing this for the doujin game creator's sake of getting themselves out there more, and not ZUN wanting Touhou itself to be more popular. If he did I'm sure he'd put his own games as well. Good on him anyways. Good Guy ZUN. |
| Colticide:
Speaking of overseas, if these games do end up available on the US PSN then do you think they would get translated or end up like some Wiiware games and stay in Japanese? |
| teefa85:
Wow...now this was unexpected news. But might convince me to get a PS4 mattering how things go forward. |

Some additional notes: - The most important compromise ZUN has made for this project, is that he's creating an opportunity for people to be introduced to Touhou from fan games that necessarily contain fanon cliches and high budget voice acting. Back at the time of the Musou Kakyou "Touhou Animation Project" controversy, one of his major points of contention was that by employing high-profile voice actresses, fan works run the risk of making people mistake them for official works and think those were the official voices of Touhou characters. - Details in the trailer (please use the Mediascape site for reference): 1) At 19 seconds, it says 今後も東方や同人タイトルが続々参戦！ The particle や implies there will be more titles other than Touhou. Here the wording of the trailer differed from the text of their announcement. That's why I think they have plans for publishing non-Touhou doujin games. 2) The trailer on their site has a new segment at the end. It shows a mock dialog between Sony Computer Entertainment and ZUN where they exchanged some greetings, which ended with this: --- Quote ---SCEJA: ZUN-san, you should also release [your games]! ZUN: If I have the free [time/energy/etc] (laughter) --- End quote --- Will the official games be ported? He gave a typical non-answer. |
