hey Tollmaster, you seem to have quite a bit of knowledge running Japanese games. For some reason I cant get Super Cosplay War Ultra to run. Even though i’ve done pretty much everything to get any japanese game to run on my pc. I’ve gotten almost every other japanese game to run, but that one just doesn’t want to work.

Doing a Google Search for “Microsoft Applocale”, and then getting East Asian Language support on your version of Windows will solve a good 75% of the problems with getting Japanese doujin games to work.

Another common problem is that the path name might be too long; if you’re used to extracting files into a folder with the original rar or zip’s name, you might run into a problem where there are a lot of nested folders inside, and if you’re in, say, C:\Documents and Settings\… already you might reach a character limit for the path name. Usually not a problem with original Japanese packaged zips and rars, but sometimes if an English speaker decides to store a freeware doujin game, he’ll add developer name, what Comiket the demo it appeared at, the game’s full title, etc. into the file name, which makes the problem even more likely. All because the archivist wanted to make sure the original author of the freeware game/demo got credit!

Well, you could use an xbox 360 wired controller or any other controller which is dual sticks with a usb port. Setting it up is quite easy. as soon as you switch the option to “twinstick” all you have to do is set the stick and buttons configuration how ever you like.

Heh, neat! But…yet another “how the hell do I use Twinsticks with this game!?” conundrum.

I suppose you could figure out some kind of Dual Shock solution.

Mmmm….mech girls and 3D combat…yum!

Seriously, though, yeah, it is a VO clone, but it is done well, and while the character designs might not be 100% original, they work, and they’re nice to look at.

Looks interesting–might check it out. Thanks for this!
