Watch as PS4 IM@S will feature various Cinderella Girls, Million Live, and SideM characters to produce.Or, you know, it could end up being horrifyingly expensive day-1 DLC.
Come to think of it, when I think about the possible time when PS4 Im@s will be released, two things just kinda stick out. The tenth anniversary is what... next year in July? And there's a Cinderella Girls anime coming out in winter that year?... Will any one of my conspiracy theories be right some day? ^_^;;
I can imagine it now. iDOLM@STER ALL FOR ONE- Comes with one idol randomly selected idol; the rest are DLC. 500 yen each. [spoiler]Oh yeah, and costumes don't carry over between idols. [/spoiler]
2-3 years? Do devs in Japan that aren't Square-Enix even work on development cycles that long?
I should have added Nintendo in the exceptions list, but haven't most of the recent Sonic games been developed in the west? I know for sure that a couple of westerners penned the script for Generations.
