iDOLM@STER in the new generation

Here's hoping for allowing Westerners to avail said programs? :3

If it's mobile we're out of luck again.

If we're talking about the recent announcement, then I heard that it's another cellphone game; supposed to deal with GPS location and whatnot. Then again, I heard this on 4chan, so take it with a grain of salt.

Countdown has changed to hours and minutes.

How is that unlike their current game?

Although I wouldn't be surprised for a mobile game, it better be more than just an 'update' of sorts. It seems like they're going a little bit overboard. Plus their use of the words 'new project' make it sound to be completely different.
Although this is not really good news for all us westerners, it still suggests that they're open to the idea of development for several platforms increasing our chances of a future im@s on a system we can appreciate. Also CG and this new mobile game (provided that it requires you to play with other people) make me hope for im@s to once again contain online multiplayer.


Tl;dr: It better not be the 'same-old-stuff' in this new announcemet.

Yeah, I think if it's this major, with a countdown and everything, it's not another mobile game. [they have like... 3 now, right?]

I'm personally hoping for some more of the DS crew, maybe a 3DS spinoff? They have been getting a lot of attention from Namco lately: g4u appearances, some cameos in the anime, and dlc. Whereas... like a year ago all we had heard from the DS series was a mention of Cineria in the rankings.

I also heard something about a big anime announcement!! in April, although that was from a friend.

Although... I'm not expecting much. It's probably a reveal of who's voicing who in the Cinderella Girl cds.

14 hours to go before the big surprise!!

T minus 3 hours and about 38 minutes ...
Say, does anyone know how to code in a countdown function? XD

Lol, my brother does.
Well it should be out by the time I get home from the gym tonight. I hope us westerners will be able to participate in the excitement as well.

[AIDOLU]

now two days left...lol

[zeda12123]

an hour 55 minutes...
I'm a little excited to see what it might be, even if it is just a mobile thing.

[Compassionate Sadist]

I'm pretty psyched about this. I hope it's a new game, even if it'll make my wallet cry.

[animagic4u]

Well it has to be about idolm@ster mobile so I doubt it'll be anything wallet hurting.

[AIDOLU]

Guys..it still two days for this countdown.... since the third day .. countdown has been in hours...you can take a look to the official page.. it still two days ..and it is counting the day in hours

That's most likely (thankfully) true, but since they're making it out to be something big, I'm half-hoping for something more. Even so...I know it's already been said, but I hope this doesn't turn out to be something of a let down. I guess I shouldn't get my expectations up too high.
