They were gunning for strong sales from the start, and were hoping that Koihime Musou would be the title that would bring it for them. No way is sitting at 667 copies making them satisfied, especially with how frontloaded these games are, it's probably going to hover around there for a long time, if not forever.

(dramatic enactment that may not represent reality)
NEXTON: We can't afford to pay the voice actor royalties for this game, considering current sales figures for other games from MG.
MG: Okay, so how many sales would you need for this game to consider paying for the voices?
NEXTON: How about 2000 units?
MG: Okay, so how about we release them unvoiced and add the voices back in when we hit 2000 units?
NEXTON: I seriously doubt you'll get that much, but if you do, that's great for both of us, so let's do that.

Is this legit?

[Moogy]

Yes, it's legitimate, albeit using an outdated plugin that is prone to random crashes.

There are currently investigators working around the clock to solve the mystery of whodunnit.

The whodunnit is unimportant. We must figure out the whydunnit.

[Moogy]

I think that's obvious.

This is bad in two respects:
a) It will lower the chance of age ever releasing something official here.
b) And much more important it has a high possibility of disrupting the group dynamics of Ammy. In the worst case they never find out who was it, which can't be good for group cohesion.

Umm... I can think of 3 Houston VA's who would fit very well: Maggie Flecknoe, Brittney Karbowski, and Monica Rial. Maggie was great as Shiori in Kanon, Brittney was cute as Ayu-chan in Kanon (and has really been showing her acting abillity with Section23's recent releases) and Monica was our dear sweet Misuzu-chin.

If I had to choose one of the three, I would go with Monica. Maggie would have the right stoicism but be just a little deep for Kanade. Brittney I think is better suited for Yui (if it doesn't go to Hillary Haag).

And they better give Iwasawa-san to either Christine Auten or Luci Christian! Or by stroke of a miracle get Caitlin Glass!

... and if they give Ooyama to Greg Ayres... I swear I will slap them silly >.<

I think the area of my dub education is starting to show ^^;

Harem☆Party = “sexy tale of swords and magic from Tactics”

Mashou No Nie = “dark fantasy from Liquid”

Goshujin-sama Daisuki = “Funny Game from SCORE”

Sometime in the future:
Unnamed Da Capo title

Also HGamez.net updated their website slightly

2010 changed to 2011 and Mangagamer revealed that they are not related to HGamez.net, except that one of the founding members of MG runs it.

Apparently theirs more announcements from MG tomorrow, not sure if they're april fools or if their serious.

[Magedark]

I hope 0verflow does an April Fool's.


Just saying.
