For a game about game consoles transformed into hot women, Hyperdimension Neptunia wasnât very good. Thatâs why there are sequels!
Compile Heart, the studio behind the first game, is back with another Neptunia title. This time the game wonât focus on female personifications of home game consoles, but rather, female personifications of portable game consoles. The game features a new battle system and new characters: the âpurple sisterâ is Nepgear, the âblack sisterâ is called Uni and the âwhite sistersâ are dubbed Rom and Ram.
In the game, there is also a real time Twitter parody as everybody in the game world is so into tweeting. According to images running in Japanese game magazines, there are images of avatars for the Twitter parody that look like Mario, the Sony cat Toro and former Sega mascot Segata Sanshiro.
This time, the game machines arenât transformed into women, but, what appears to be young girls. Perhaps the rationale is that portables are newer than home consoles. Thatâs the rationale, at least.
Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2 will be out this August in Japan on the PS3.
