Idolmaster Shiny Festa

[Accoun]

That's the whole OVA right there in the beginning.

Oh well, don't really want to skip. Guess I'll have to wait until I have more time... :-/

So basically we have a music game with an 25min long intro. That shit's MGS-tier...

Downloaded all 3 games off PSN for my Vita. Not bad i guess. Not as hard and fun as project diva though. The graphics also look a bit bland 'cos of the quality of the videos.

Wish they had made this for the Vita. The graphics would have been a lot better if they did. No need for pre-rendered graphics if that was made for the vita.
And you could have had Augmented Reality with the Vita camera. Imagine the Idolmaster girls singing on your desk! Just like the case with project diva f.

Is the intro lengthy or they have just put the episode in the beginning?

Its the episode. Press start to skip it

Anybody have any idea on the story between gameplay are? Im playing Honey Sound and it seems like the in-game story has somethin else goin on. A translation or a quick summary will do plz?

[Squallff8aus]

I'd rather go with the prerendered video with no customization than the realtime rendered garbage in Project Diva.  You know there's a problem when your rhythm game drops frames.  I'm running Shiny Festa on my PSP-1000 and it runs fine even on factory clock settings.  Runs even nicer when overclocked.

You say that because you probably don't own a Vita yet
If they made a vita version it will be really awesome. I'm sure Namco Bandai can make idolmaster 2 run on the vita just fine if they wanted it to.

Anyone who know or have a translation of what hte items do that you can buy. The only categories of interest is the first and last secion, the others is just changing the look of things.

The temporare powerups ( first section ) I got no clue what they do LOL, And the last section got expensive things that you unlock over time, yet again no clue what theese do at all ^^.

If anyone know it would be really nice if you could let us know.

Anything on how to claim the backstage passes? bit lost atm

[mallory627]

Does anyone know how you actually play the game? Do you use the control pad or the buttons?

Also is it region free??? I hope so. I WANT IT!!!!

[Scotty]

PSP has no region lock, or certain other security measures, if you catch my drift.

As for controls, dpad and left shoulder controls notes from the left, face buttons and right shoulder controls notes on the right.

You can't access backstage? Just follow Kotori's forced tutorial. Go to the shop, buy the item, use it.
