Yamamoto: As a publisher, we would like to deliver it to PC users as well, but per our agreement with Vanillaware, we are only releasing on console. In other words, there are no plans to port it to PC currently.
Did a PC gamer piss on Itsuno’s mom or something? Even smaller companies like Falcom, Compile Heart and Tamsoft released their games on steam, but Vanillaware continues to refuse to do so. This is so puzzling when you combine it with the other news that they ran out of money as they were developing it.
Weird, considering how low quality Japanese porn games usually are, and how big the porn industry in Japan generally is. But hey, even Sony saw the light, and overall actually does a half decent job with most of their ports.
Though, we’ve heard the whole mantra of the death of the gaming PC for decades in the West too. And if anything, consoles got closer and closer to PCs, so arguably it seems kinda the other way around.
thats just due to market size.
virtually anyone can watch an adult video without context. not everyone can play a japanese game with no context. the latter also takes more time to develop.
thr console pc paragdim imo started to switch around when consoles are no longer bleeding edge tech. although price/performamce optimized, they are no longer considered visually the best experience, and everything outside of switch carts needs a digital connection to update. on the PS3/360 launch, their performance was considered high end. Nowadays consoles release with middle of the pack performance to minimize cost. Consoles are slowly losing their plug and play status and resorting to other methods of monetization.
