Whatever happened to Air Standard Edition for All Ages?

[GreatSaintLouis]

I thought this was slated for a more indefinate April release after the announcement of the date for the 18+ SE, yet here it is June and no word thus far. Is it still being worked on, or have Key dropped it in order to focus more on Tomoyo After?

I'm not certain an all ages Air Standard Edition was ever announced.
versammeln has nothing listed for it in either future or past releases, and they're usually pretty accurate about this sort of thing. Similarly, Key's site still has the old all ages version up, while every other old title's been sent to the out of production index (though strictly speaking, I can't imagine that they're still making the old Air standard edition, either).

As for what Key are doing, one can only hope that at least Suzumoto, Togoshi, Itaru and Unryuuji are working on the next 'proper' title.

That's the last anyone's heard of it that I know of, though.

Ah, it was hiding in the logs.
Guess it's too early to give up hope just yet.

Sounds like what they should have originally said for Clannad. :D

Ast: Did I hear you right? "though strictly speaking, I can't imagine that they're still making the old Air standard edition, either." Do you mean the new RealLive standard edition they JUST made is already out of production?

Damn Key and their confusingly ambiguous terminology! =P
