Shiny Festa is complete shit. They'd be ripping you off at five dollars. Why you people want this in English is beyond me, the threads are bad enough. Just learn Japanese.

Maybe they're just joking. Tomorrow they'll be all like "Oh ho ho you silly gooses. Here's a translated Idolmaster 2 for your PS3 and/or 360." or something right? right?

Bamco truly is the EA of the east. Probably more evil. Remember, this is the company that has nearly $2000 worth of dlc for one game.

>>84062172
They're looking for excuses not to release this series in the West, so they're going to use this knowing it's just going to flop.

Did you know that the devil is only referenced three times in the Hebrew Bible? And one of those times isn't as the snake in the creation story. That connection wasn't made until much later.

Anyway in at least one of those instances (the book of Job) it is implicit to the text that the devil is not actually opposed to God but a member of the celestial court whose purpose is to test the virtuous on God's behalf. Or something.

Also all three of the devil references in the Hebrew Bible are from postexilic writings. Isn't that fascinating?

>>84062826
Yes, please cuntinue

>>84062660

Same. Hell if they released iM@S 1 or 2 translated for the PC I'd pay plenty for it. Because if they only released it for a console I'd have to seriously consider buying a console just for it.

I haven't seen a lose/lose situation like this since Valkyria Chronicles 2. Either it does well and only comes over on iOS or it fails and we never see idol m@ster again.

>>84062826
The devil of the Hebrew religion as I know it isn't exactly the opponent as it is in Christianity. I believe it was something along the lines of an angel whose task was to test man's faith and virtue

has any Japanese company released a dialog heavy, non-dubbed game over shores before?

Agarest 2.

I own an iPad, a Macbook Air and an iPhone

I will enjoy playing this

So, can you like emulate iOS on a PC? Mite bite the bullet and buy one if I can.

>>84063132
Most get licensed by western companies I think like Agarest

Just jailbroke my iphone last night. This and Phoenix Wright HD Trilogy will keep me busy for quite a while.

>>84062979
I can't remember what the other two devil references are.

Oh and the devil does appear in the book of Tobit, but that's apocrypha. To the Jews at least. Roman and Orthodox Catholics include it as part of the Canon of Scripture for some reason.

Anyway once you get to the New Testament the devil is referenced all over the place.

>>84063250
How do you jailbreak as I have a ipod touch that I dont use that much but might as well do it.

Is that so? Hmmmm maybe what I meant is that he's only referenced in three books then, but his name appears 13 separate times.

By the way, did you know that Jesus' name is referenced more often in the Koran that Muhammed's name is? To Muslims, Jesus is the second greatest of God's prophets, and Muhammed talked about him much more than he talked about himself.

> It can also be used on iPod touch (5th generation), however when downloading additional data you must use a Wi-Fi connection.

I have a 4th gen iPod touch, am I fucked? Will it not work at all? God damnit.

>>84061982
You mean it's all three games in one? If so, that's not bad.

>>84063366
No, I got the iPad for a birthday present. I paid 200 dollars for my iPhone (same as any Android phone) and my Macbook Air was 1000 dollars on sale during Black Friday which is no more expensive than an ultrabook.

>>84063462
No, it's 55 bucks per version. Three versions.

>>84063413
That's because the Koran is just Mohammed's mistranslation of the Bible, and thus he has caused 1400 years of misinterpretation.

>>84063476
Why not spend that money on something good?

>>84063502
T-that's too much. Maybe if it was like $20 each game, that'd be passable...

Read the site, that's all the help you get.

>>84063413
It's actually more like 5, but we typically interpret several other passages to refer to him.

As for what Satan is, he is indeed made to test man. He tempts men, but only on Yahweh's order. He can't act with Yahweh ordering him to.
We don't actually have a "Devil." Satan's name is הַשָּׂטָן (Ha-Satan), which we usually translate as "adversary."

I hadn't owned a Mac since the 90's and I wanted to get one to play around with it so I did. I don't get what the big deal is really, it has the same internals as an ultrabook, cost the same as any ultrabook and it is aesthetically pleasing...it just happens to run OSX.

>>84063629
Well perhaps some of those references are sort of ambiguous, because the book I was reading explicitly said that he was either referenced three times or in three places.

That book was edited together by a Catholic Bible scholar, for what it's worth. He had enough fancy degrees to be taken seriously as a scholar, also.

Anyway the Christian interpretation of Satan is that he's ultimately playing in God's hands, as it were, but he thinks he's being rebellious by acting against God.

I'd been meaning to ask the religious studies guy at my university when this whole paradigm shit in regards to the devil took place.

>>84063890
If you aren't willing to learn moon, you're undeserving of your aidoru.

>>84064018
A few of them are fairly ambiguous, but we still consider them to be Satan usually.
There are a few more instances of him in the Book of Job, but after the beginning, most of the references are fairly ambiguous and there are still arguments over what means what. Job refers to an adversary several times, but nobody is sure if he actually means Satan or if he just feels as though someone is out to get him and calls them an adversary.

I know virtually nothing about Christianity and its related religions. I actually don't even practice Judaism anymore. It's an interesting subject, though.

>>84064257

Not even are the songs subbed. There is no reason to pick this up if you have the PSP games. Hell, there's no reason to pick this up.

>>84062559
Basically. They're probably tired of Im@s fans asking them to bring the games over, so they did this as a way to make it fail, milk out a few dumbasses (like yours truly), and then go "Well, no one bought it, so it must mean they don't like the games as much as they claim."

>>84062826

Disney is a big company, and they know how to do kawaii when they want to. Wreck-It Ralph even has AKB48 in it.

>>84064356
The OVA and dialogues are all subbed. OVA and song lyrics both have fan subs out there you can find. But not the game dialogue.

>>84061486 (OP)

>people buy overpriced iDevices of $800

Prepare yourselves for the swarm of /v/ermin who are going to buy it and come here to talk about it.
I guess I might as well quit perusing those threads.

>>84065236
Most of /v/ either despise iOS, or have their iOS devices jailbroken. Trust me, interest over here is almost nonexistent.

>>84063769
hahah fuck you man , you make my night

>>84064876
It's pretty obvious considering how little they are spending in the way of advertising. It wouldn't be hard at all to make a profit off of the console IM@S games. As there is a fairly good following in the west. It's like they hate money.

>>84062172
More like there are way more fucking Apple devices than PSP's in the West, and they know Im@s fans here are probably willing to pay, they just aren't sure how many, so they're gonna test it out.

That's not to say I condone submitting yourself to ass rape though.

>menu translations only
So far so good.

What in the literal fuck are they doing.

>>84065783

Actually, they translated all in-game text, including all the little story sequences and they subbed the OVA.

Yeah and the height of the Miku craze didn't spread retards everywhere right?

iM@S is huge in Japan, so I give zero fucks about it coming to the west, I get to enjoy it without worry because of those jap sales, with the added benefit of no retarded entry level weaboos who either couldn't bother to hunt the translated games down or learn moon.

The US Vocaloid fandom largely originates from youtube, and the vast majority of chicks who cosplay Miku don't give two shits about Vocaloid they just wanted to go as something recognizable. You will regularly hear them utter such phrases as "Miku is my favorite Anime character", "I don't like the music I just think she's cute" and " I just like her outfit".

>>84066930
You do realize that the people who cry and bitch and moan about CG are far worse than anything else, right?
You can have a bunch of people talking about CG idols with no problems, and then some fucktard comes along and does the whole "Stop liking what I don't like" routine and sends everything to shit.

YOU are the cancer. You're even worse than the contributor-haters.

>>84066727
CG and ML are huge horseshit and the fact that a shitty obvious otaku pandering konata tier faggot "idol" like anzu can get a figma before the main cast makes me want to die.
