In a time where we have simulcast of Anime, why can't the Eroge and localization companies just work together? RIP G-Collections, Peach Princess, Megatech and any other ones that have closed their doors since. Also, was there even any adult or sexual content in the Steins Gate game? VNDB doesn't even include non-Visual Novel Eroge like Metal & Lace, which was a fighting game. Also looking at the CG for that game, it's not even an Eroge. Take a look at this example Hanachirasu (link is also SFW) originally released in Japan in 2005, JAST's localized version came out in 2015. But those were games originally released years ago, just like Shiny Days, which I'm glad is getting a Western Release. It's nice to see that JAST USA is trying to pick up some business with this, looking at Starless and Raidy 3. JAST even went on to re-release G-Collection's stuff. Significant drop in the number of new Eroge being localized. Thats pretty odd too because I see more people express interest in h-stuff these days than before.Ĭheck out the dates of these releases: (These links are SFW, however if you click on the title of any of the games, they may not be) These days? Eroge used to get localized more often before? I had no idea. I think the reason this is happening is because of the laws in other countries, which is why I said I don't know if I should've even mentioned it in this thread. Heck, even to buy an artbook for an Eroge, I had to go through a mail forwarding service. I try to buy them from DL-Site or Getchu, I need a Japanese credit card or address. Not sure if I should put it here since it's not really anyone's fault, but I'm also disappointed that companies won't sell Eroge outside of Japan. Really wish that the Japanese Eroge companies worked with the Western localization companies. Recently the English version of Starless came out, the original came out back in 2011.


We get the non-H versions, but back in the day companies like Peach Princess (link is perfectly SFW), Megatech and such were able to localize titles like X-Change 1 - 3, Cobra Mission, Chain ~Ushinawareta Sokuseki~, Maid Story (not localized by either company), Tokimeki Check-In, Paradise Heights 1 & 2, and so on. I'm disappointed that these days very few if any Eroge get localized.
