New DS Adventure? Osawari Tantei Ozawa Rina - Page 2

Starflux · 02-09-2006, 09:47 AM

Oh my god, that style is absolutely adorable! I'd buy this on a WHIM! I love Japanese wackiness permeating their design.

A "soft porn" (you probably mean Hentai) game for the DS?
Are you sure you're not mistaken, I follow most Japanese releases and I don't believe I've seen one that even remotely fits that description...

Anyway, I too hope Osawari Tantei Ozawa Rina gets an English language release, it looks quite interesting. I love the graphics style of the game.

Love the visuals (seem to be saying that ever more frequently lately...) Reminds me again how much I need a DS.

All gaming platforms in Japan have some hentai games. They are propably not that much advertised so that may be why you haven't heard about it.

An AG.com exclusive: screenshots from the English version of this game!

Okay, well, not exactly from the English version... but definitely an AG.com exclusive, as I translated these myself and will only be posting them here.

And introducing some of the characters:

You might notice the name Jii for the butler. This is pronounced like the "jee" in "Jeeves", the famous English butler from novels by Sir Pelham Grenville Wodehouse. The name has lent itself to countless manservants since then, and even the AskJeeves website.

Oh, how the ordinary man looks completely bored out of his skull. Lovely.

I'm pretty sure it's not quite hentai, but it's about oggling near-naked anime chicks.

Thanks for putting your time into this.

Thanks, doroposo! It's cool to be able to understand what they're saying.

Kolzig · 02-13-2006, 07:40 AM

We salute you doroposo. Nice job.

I really want this game to be released in Europe/US.

Everyone's welcome, it was my pleasure. After spending a little time with the screens, I think I'll have to pick up this game myself. Seems like a cute little adventure. Who knows, maybe if it doesn't see an international release, I might put together a companion guide to the game text for adventurous importers.

Veovis · 02-15-2006, 04:18 AM

Looks nice, but as someone said, there's several adventure titles out or on the way for the DS which may or may not be translated.

Tantei Kibukawa Ryosuke Jiken Dan: The Masquerade Lullaby for example. http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-13-71-9g-49-en-70-h1u.html

Also, for those of you who cannot find Phoenix Wright in the US, try Play-Asia.com. They have the japanese version (Gyakuten Saiban: Mask Vision Murder Case) for sale in the US and say it has options for both english and japanese language.

Karmillo · 02-15-2006, 12:39 PM

There are so many games I wish could be translated, like jump superstars

Heard that since different publishers hold the rights to all the shonen characters then you couldnt translate the game under one publisher...

So whos the publisher and developer for this game? Is it any big ones?

I think the game is actually coming out on that date!

All online retailers have now changed the date to 31st of March!

Funktion · 03-16-2006, 06:53 PM

Great news. The official website for the game has now an English language section, which probably means the game will have an English language edition.
Check out the English section of the website for some info on the game (and some cool desktop themes):

The DS Lite is out in japan already, you can import it for $200 USD.

Should be out in the US in may or so (not sure about other countries). I'm waiting patiently for it so I can play Phoenix Wright, which looks amazing.

Oh well, better learn Japanese, then. Or maybe Niko could come up with an online course here on the forums? :p
