Umihara Kawase Just Won’t Stay Dead, Coming Back to Steam from

I guess most people didn't buy it the first time because failed to notice this was the whole trilogy, not just the vita port. Looking forward to shitposts complaining $30 is too much and the japanese can't into good programming (the game is locked to something like 720p).

>>2947324
>(the game is locked to something like 720p)
Well that is undeniable that it is retarded, are all the 3 games like that?

Still, I want it, was already self-flagellating for not getting them when I had the chance so I'm jumping on it as soon as I can.

>>2947327
Umihara is the waifu/mascot for /vr/. She has been here longer than you.

>>2947338
Just don't bother replying dude

>>2947338
No, our mascot is Arino, not this gay moeshit.

Why do you say that?

>>2947306
been on my wishlist for a while but I just never got around to buying it

>>2947345
If you weren't so gay you'd know the GCCX Umihara Kawase episode is one of the best.

>>2947708
You're only saying that because you're a fan of the series, fuccboi.

>>2947330
If you're buying this for graphics you should just kill yourself.

Its good to hear, Degica has been a great publisher of niche japanese games, especially in bringing over shmups.

>>2947861
The fuck are you on about

>>2947338
I thought Princess Sevenleaf was our mascot.

>>2948801
Pretty sure it's Popful Mail

>>2948801
I thought our mascot has four leafs?

>>2950508
Did we ever figure out just why Mail is so popful?

The wacky physics in this demo look very fun. Wish they released it.

>>2950508
Yeah I think Popful is the one true /vr/ waifu

>>2948801
>having a tripfag for a mascot

>>2950641
>not imagining tripfags and namefags as cute little girls

>>2950563
It's probably her Mail

Finally, I decided myself to buy the games the very day they got removed from steam.

bretty nice. Managed to buy the SFC version and Shun before they got blown away but still nice hearing they're back.

>>2948801
>giving any attention to tripfags
get the fuck out man

>>2950641
>>2951545
Eh? I thought Princess Sevenleaf was just a board mascot character, like Vivian James or Christina White, and the tripfag is named after the character.

>>2951789
even if she was our mascot, a tripfag pretending to "be" "her" is ultra-retarded.

If we absolutely need a board mascot, it's pic related. I don't get how any tripfags fit to the equation.

It's the 28th and no games in sight in the steam store.

It's because Hardcoregamer is full of shit. Degica hasn't said a single thing about them rereleasing Umihara Kawase

Is there any of her on sadpanda? Asking for a friend.

any way I can fix this, besides upgrading?

Good. Pedos don't deserve to feel happiness. You're lucky we allow you to feel anything below the neck.

29th and still no games on Steam, and HC still aren't saying who their sources are.

I guess they really are just clickbait
Shame on them

>>2947897

I hope they will do a good job with the localisation of the visual novel trilogy of Muv Luv.

Spoiler because released after 1999 and it doesn't really play like a game.

>>2953674
Hell, it's about time.

Doing God's work, anon.

>>2953672
Will this work with Steam version or just with the sfc rom?

>>2947306
For a moment you got my hopes up, OP.

>>2954265
only the SNES ROM for now. The level formats are identical in all versions (SFC, Steam and NDS) so it would be possible to make the editor compliant with all versions pretty easily.

Let Umihara rest in peace, Steam faggots don't deserve true gaming bliss.

>>2954705
Agreed. We Steam users don't want any more of your weeb trash on our superior platform. It's bad enough as it is with Neptunia, Final Fantasy and countless VN's shitting up the store.

>>2954714
I don't like the games either, but I'll never understand people asking to have less choices

They just issued an update to the article and posted a new one regarding missing the 28th deadline:

http://www.hardcoregamer.com/2016/01/29/umihara-kawase-return-to-steam-delayed-still-happening/190094/

>We reached out to a Degica representative who told Hardcore Gamer that “due to unexpected delays Umihara missed our intended launch date, however, rest assured that these delays are not permanent and the launch of this beloved game will be soon.”

I still don't get why Degica aren't putting up something as simple as a fucking tweet about acquiring the games, we're forced to take on the word of journalists.

>>2947306
And now I have to get it.

>>2953006
Whoever made Youkai watch sucks at monster design but they can make some damn sexy lolis.

>>2955220
Yeah, I'm still not believing anything about this unless Degica says something publicly themselves. Just seems so strange several places are reporting that Degica's rereleasing it yet they haven't said a word about it on their site, etc

>>2954735
anyone could play those games through emulation since age.
Being niche in a satured genre without any advertising in a holiday/steam sale period didn't help either.

I'm making a pokemon hack right now. I recently got into Umihara Kawase so I made a GSC sprite. She's brown and pink because GSC sprites are only allowed to have two colors plus white and black for some reason, but I think I managed to make it look alright.

Now here's a question for you guys. Would you rather catch her as a wild Pokemon or fight her by replacing the Fisherman trainer sprite?

>>2955970
Better quality.

>>2955970

I'd like to fight her honestly. Since she catches fish and stores them in her backpack, it'd make sense that she'd then use whatever creatures she catches as Pokemanz.

She should be the water gymleader.

I've decided to go both routes so I made a separate trainer sprite for her with the blue jacket.

Here's the back sprite.

>>2956191
Just tweeted something at them, if they ever respond I'll put some update here

>>2957313
Godspeed Paul

lol whoops, I almost never use twitter so I forgot I had my name on there

>>2957948
Paul is a nice name.

>>2957229
Kinda getting Dora the explorer vibes here.

>>2953674
IT'S HAPPENING

SFC version is still my favorite

>>2955126
gets kinda dull pretty quick though, the ice platforms look like silver too, its kinda annoying but the game itself runs fine so I can't really complain

RIP
it was all a dream

Umihara has humongous boobies.

>>2962738
Speaking of which, anyone know where I can find Umihara doujins in Akihabara? I'm in Tokyo right now.

>>2962845
What? Nobody fucking knows about UK, not even the nipponese. Good luck trying to find one that isn't digital.

So now that Degica has the rights to Umihara, does anyone want to join me in emailing them/contacting them on twitter and asking for Umihara Kawase Shun to make it to NA/EU PSN as a PS1 classic so we can play the full trilogy on american accounts?

I want to have all three games on my vita already.

>>2966983
First you need to contact them on twitter and ask them to publicly announce that they have indeed bought the rights to the games, because there's no public announcement by their part, not even a tweet.

So don't jump the gun yet.

>>2955970
better hack would be inserting her into Legend of the River King.

so comfy.

and the pack itself is on sale, so $20 instead of $30.

Are the first two games emulated? How's the emulation? Did they add any new PC-exclusive features?

The first game emulates well. I personally don't like how shun emulates since it was hit or miss for me.

The pc version has a practice mode for the first one(already in the second) and they run faster then the originals along with leaderboards, workshop and maybe something else.
