what the fuck lol
Oh dear
>>740678337>EoSDWhy?
OH FUCK
>>740678337Didn't ZUN lose the source code?
>>740679210Presumably he either found it or finally took up Nintendo's offer for them to help him rebuild it.
>>740678337I can't believe they showed Touhou in the Japanese direct but not the English one
>>740678337Legitimately how? I thought he lost the source code for all the old windows era games. But this is some sort of remaster for switch? Not sure what is even going on here. I wonder if the rest will get the same treatment for the classic windows era.
>>740679618I can easily believe that
>>740679210probably just stole the decompilation code
>>740679210>we lost the source codetranslation: nah we’re not fucking porting it to X system (until we get paid more), go FUCK yourself
>even touhou is turning into remakeslopThe reclining has accelerated...
>>740679618That's why I never watch the troonglish direct
>>740679768It's a remake
touhou is relevant again
Zun is just whoring everything out now.
>>740678337Wait what
>>740678337Based finally a way to play 2hu on the go
Is it exclusive to switch?If so ZUN can go fuck himself
But 7, 10 and 11 are better than 6.
Maybe 2hu fans will finally play their favorite game this time around.
>>740681076Everyone else already has the original so no shit sherlock.

Hopefully they remake 7 and 8 and put it on steam too
>>740682780They're just the publisher, moron
>>740682780EOSD's script is so barebones that I have to wonder how they're going to fuck this up.

GLORY TO THE CCP IN HD
>>740683052Publisher making an official English version of a Touhou game where they're going to make Reimu say trans rights are youkai rights
>>740678337Finally i can finish the game.

>>740683254which ruins my headcanon of it being being more of a black braceleti guess that means patchy is getting her stripes
>>740684181meant for >>740683569
>>740680467Looks the same to me just some updated sprites, UI and touched up portraits with some qol like being able to see your hitbox while focused. Patterns look the same and so do backgrounds. I'd consider it a remaster rather than remake. I wonder if easy mode will let you go to stage 6 this time seeing it's trying to be casual friendly. Also curious to see if ending slides got anything too.
>>740684053If this does well the team getting PCB and IN is basically guaranteed.
>>740684181They botched Flans ponytail too so yeah expect the worse
>>740681930Yes. Congrats on your 1CC anon.
>>740678337finally EoSD gets the attention it deserves
>>740678865most popular entry
post flan
>>740679618The actual games are still pretty niche in the west, fangames are probably played more
>>740684970msgk flan...
>>740684782Based, only cost me 1900 yenhonestly cheaper than a prize fig
>>740683416For that matter are finally getting clarification on what ZUN meant with English Beef.
>>740686138We've known for years that it was a joke about mad cow disease (big in England) and freezing it was thought to kill the prions in the meat, except it didn't. So it was Cirno giving the wrong treatment because she's an idiot.
These portraits look like shit lmao. Looks like AI upscaled shit instead of ZVN SOVL. How is anybody here excited for it?
>>740686672He later said that wasn't the case when asked about it though.
>>740686959have you not played the newer games? that's just what his style looks like now
>>740681379Fuck this shit, this is opening the gate even bigger to let even more westoid cancer in
>>740680458>>740683818I have both open to see what's shown in one and not the other
>>740687212I have, these look nothing like what he's drawn in the last 10 years. Hence why I suspect it's AI upscaling.
>>740681719Does this not have online leaderboards? So the only selling point is the arranged track and it's like any other release? I guess one point in it's favor is that eosd was originally clearly made for a crt and the background and bullets look like badly cropped heavily artifacted jpgs on a modern monitor but idk I still don't really give a shit and there's like a ton of other better shmups releasing this year.
Touhou is a game?
I 1'cc'ded 2hu 4,6,7 but I never came close to beating any of the extra stages
>>740687619Well he already admitted he used AI for the Spellcard backgrounds in Fossilized Wonders so it may very well be AI upscaling, also looks like a dirt cheap port so I wouldn't be surprised.
>>740686959It's more just bewilderment that this is something that exists. I personally won't actually get it because I dislike eosd.
>>7406890256 and 7 extra stages are easy as fuck m8
>>740687298Touhou is already infested with cancer; I know a guy who only plays Soku, jerks it to /jp/ and reads the manga for the "lore." It's genuinely INSUFFERABLE.
>>740680081>stole decomp code of his own gamesasuga
>>740690347Soku is great thoughYou have to admit the OG games are not exactly the most fun games ever made, shmups are a dogshit genre for autists even worse than fighting games
>>740690347Did you time travel from 2010 to poast this
why was the other thread deleted what the hell
>>740678337Why did the hyper nigger Jannies delete the last thread? Are the marketing threads struggling with traction?
>>740679768It's a remake, the classic version is meant to replicate the original as much as possible meaning it's probably from the ground up mostly. Also I was going to post in the other thread, but I hope this means some cool fans give 4 and 5 similar treatment because those are good games. 5 especially would benefit from a Windows conversion.
>>740679618Maybe just maybe Touhou isn't popular in the west as fans think
More EoSDtoddlers yippee At least no more excuses to dodge playing the game even if there is this new not pointdevice looking thing.
>>740690347It will get even worse. There is no barrier whatsoever now against normalfaggots of the lowest calibre.
You don’t understandWe absolutely NEED the 5 stellar blade threads filled with AI softcore pornActual video games have no place here
>>740690773There are mods that for some reason can and will delete any touhou threads, and the don't care about off topic threads.
>>740687741>there's like a ton of other better shmups releasing this year.Like?
>>740691364Stellar Blade is a Video Game tho
Any chances of a physical release?
Touhou is just a vehicle for futa doujins.
>>740682780Zun remade the entire game, along with music, from scratch. It's why he's at comiket, so he can promote it.
>>740690756>>740690773Frankly I'm shocked that they're letting us have any thread. Enjoy this one while it lasts boys.
>>740691558Takorin...
I'm expecting the entire collection to be released on the Switch 2, along with a limited complete collection physical release.
MoF when
>>740678337We ruining the fandom further with this one bros
>>740691521no it’s a shitty moviegame for closeted trannies to drool over
This is it this is opening the door for 2hu in smash
>>740691992Zun has been a fucking jew since he started putting the games on steam, you will have to purchase them individually at full price.
>>740691807>>740681719
>>740692002Retards in the fandom don’t play mainline games
>>740692306>a fucking jewIt’s like 12-15 bucks per game, how is that jewish?
>>740690756>>740690773If this was announced during SoP, jannies wouldn’t even let this thread stay up.
Flan's Flanchise btw
11 is the better game though>better cast>better difficulty>better patternsPeople STILL seethe at Cat Walk to this day
>>740692306wasn't EoSD freeware from the beginning?
>>740692776No? None of these games have ever been freeware

Lifelong touhou fan excited to play it for the first time
>>740693265No shit anon, anything's freeware if you pirate it. My point is they were never made to be released for free - even the demos costed money at comiket/reitaisai.
>>740690756I want to believe the janny fatfingered the delete button, otherwise I see no reason.
>>740691814Lost
>>740693409we actually play the games here, say that to persona fans or danganronpa fans
>>740692934I misremembered, it's not freeware but you can't legally purchase it anywhere except jimmy's yard sale. So it's abandonware in all but name. Zun is gonna make trillions.
>>740682780Oof. Dropped.

It's been a dream of mine to play touhou on the go ever since I played that really crappy DS homebrew version. I'm getting this day 1
>>740692210Anon-kun what you're describing...
Realistically, will this make Touhou popular again?
>>740681379I beat it at normal.
>>740691364>>740692210I've never seen posts like this in the god of war threads.
>>740693971>this yearAlmost certainly yes. Also remembered that cotton game is getting ported as well. Plenty of actual decent games to be excited about.
>>740694168Nope
>>740694168No. I don't think they even put it in the english version of the Nintendo Direct.
>>7406942061cc right? right?
>>740692002Literally how could it even get worse, most people already don't play the games.
>>740693512Of fatbrained and thought touhou is an anime so this would be offtopic for /v/
>>740694168No and that's a good thingI get what i want and the mainstream normalfag goycattle don't come in and ruin shit
>>740694292no shit? I only beat mystic square and EoSD in normal.
>>740694168The only way to make touhou popular again is to release a mainline game with Mima again
>>740694292It's not really relevant for normal. Normal isn't like "standard arcade difficulty" its more like normal as in "your mom could probably beat it" so I don't really consider normal clears to really be clears.
>>740679618NA Direct didn't show ports of Trails in the Sky 2 remake and Granblue Relink but instead covered absolute slop like DayZ and Tomb Raider lmao.
>>740679618What other Japan only announcements did this Direct have? I ain't re-watching the whole thing again.
>>740694209>i’ve seen the truth posted elsewherewoah, shocker
>>740694168Touhou is still popular within its own fanbase.
Why did touhou stypped being popular...
>>740681719>Touhou 5>4GB RAM requiredWhat the fuck has this world come to?That shit ran on the fucking 32MB toaster I used at the time.
>>740694104Oh, my bad
>>740694261>>740694275But consider the following: now all the retarded zoomers that can't into icky things like patches can play the game
>>740694775>5
>>740694057>really crappy DS homebrew version
>>740694775>STORAGE: 1 MB available spaceHow did they do that??????????????????
>>740694168It'll increase the amount of Japanese toddlers who'll maybe play it in between watching hundreds of yukkuri LP videos and draw Flandre, until TH21 releases next year and it's about the same as its been. Bonus points for having an excuse for not playing the rest (besides AoCF & SFW but lol spinoffs) because its not on the fisher price tablet. The humiliation Ariya, Yuiman and Nina will suffer at the hands of Koakuma and Daiyousei in August's popularity poll will be hilarious. At this point, it's not about whether the above 2 will get more points, it's about guessing how many spots under the 2 they'll be. People may have forgotten since last poll happened as FW released and Toyohime even got bumped because of it, but this is the 1st year for the 3 girls mentioned above.
>>740694928Okay, after checking: 6.For some reason, I distinctly remember it being the 5th one.
As long as the digital manual still has the baka joke it's alright with me.
>>740694168Very probably.From the outset Touhou hysteria was buoyed by the strong presentation and easy accessibility. As a shmup they're nothing special, they just look and sound gorgeous and were easy to buy if you're japanese.The decline was driven by ZUN taking longer and longer between games, and those games declining precipitously in quality pretty much after SA. It became harder to buy ad play the games and so the whole doujin scene because a fanwork of a fanwork of a fanwork of a 20-year-old game rather than engaging directly with anything new or exciting.The fanbase is still there, smaller and less active but still every bit as talented and enthusiastic as they were in 2002 making UN Owen Was Her memes with Ronald Mcdonald, but with a generation aging out of fandom and no new eyes on the series there's just not much of an audience. This game will almost certainly generate a new audience, and in doing so it will whip both still extant touhou fans and retired ones into a frenzy. Expect a deluge of Cirno memes and high effort music covers to flood the internet. The whole producer/utaite infrastructure that's settled around the vocaloid and vtuber boom is going to shift gears practically overnight in a carnival of nostalgia.
>>740695193I expect this might be the first time in years that we see the few non-EoSD characters pushed out of the top ten
>>740694485Anyways, I was about to start streaming, and then the bastard beside me goes "want to see a pacifist run?" Who in the world plays pacifist nowadays, you moron? I want to ask him, "do you REALLY want to play the whole game without shooting?" I want to interrogate him. I want to interrogate him for roughly an hour. Are you sure you don't just want to try saying "pacifist run"? Coming from a /jp/ veteran such as myself, the latest trend among us vets is this, lunatic no bomb. Lunatic no bomb means you give every spell card all you've got. But on the other hand the difficulty is a tad higher. This is the key. And then when you clear, it's delicious. This is unbeatable. However, if you attempt this then there is danger that you'll be marked by the score-runners as a survivalfag from next time on; it's a double-edged sword. I can't recommend it to amateurs. What this all really means, though, is that you, 740694485, should just stick with your one credit clear.
>>740695101Yes.https://gbatemp.net/threads/touhou-ds-v0-7.116748/
>>740691995MoF has been on steam for awhile now.
>>740695226>tfw you can't post maru-kyuu on 4chins anymore, because it falls victim to the emoji-blockWhat the fuck was moot thinking?
I got my ass beat by EoSD ten years ago and gave up on shmups forever. This isn't for me but I'm happy tuhufags are getting something cool.
>>740692223Have you learned nothing after all this time.
>>740695212I really hope so, Mystic Square is the best classichu along with PoDD and LLS
>>740695691UFO kicked my ass on EASY but I persevered and shmups became my #1 favorite genre
>>740694057The decomp is getting ported to Android (hopefully playable with a controller), and will likely be ported to switch before the main release (I wonder how will that work out).
>>740692223lol. nah.Not even in the English direct
>>740695691But we already got EoSD 24 years ago
>>740695445I wouldn't go that far but I still expect some pretty silly things
>>740678865Kaguya owes me rape.
>>740696004cirno got so close
>>740694168If it's a good port, the music is iconic as fuck.
>>740690558Soku is awesome. My problem is that he is BORDERLINE OBSESSED with Touhou and /jp/ but hasn't even touched the shmups, not to mention he is extremely religious and only likes touhou because of fanon, denpa songs mainly iosys and ALICE
>>740691189Touhou is very popular in the west with the secondary crowd, but those people don't care about the games.
the japanese are shitting and crying tears of joy at this news, they really like EosDZuns stream on YT got like 15k live viewerswhat is it about pic related that makes the overworked, dead inside japanese man do cartwheels of joy?
>>740696364it's never been remi, it's always been flan
>>740679210it's a remake and the game has been thoroughly reverse engineered and the assets extracted, it's just the matter of making a new engine and making it compatible with the original decompiled bullet scripts.The patters could also have been completely remade from scratch by looking at the original, it's not that hard for a paid developer team
>>740679210What's up with gooks not making backups??
>>740694168>againWhat the hell are you talking about?I'm only looking at Touhou from the sidelines (despite having been on /jp/ the day it was created as the Touhou board to get that shit out of /a/), but the doujin-output has been consistently high over the years.If you are talking about overseas: Who the fuck cares? The less brain-wrecks are involved with your hobby, the better.
>>740696881the doujin-output has been consistently high over the years.It's now less popular than blue archive and getting less doujins every year, it's over bro

>>740696467you FUCKhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UAc9NvI5KqY

>>740693000apparently he did find an old backup of the source code, also the original game is includedi think, i can only go by what the auto translate says
>>740682184I love this meme.
>>740696795But EoSD shames you for playing on easy and kicks you out after stage 5.
>>740695691I started EoSD for the first time a week ago and it genuinely felt like I was going through a lobotomy for the first few playthroughts until I finally understood what was happening in the screen. Maybe you just needed more time to get it
>>740697379The Steam page says that it's a recreation of the original, so we'll find out when it's out
>>740685361For me it's mesugaki Koishi.
>>740697046blue archive would've been perfect as a shmup. the girls are using FUCKING GUNS. there are mechs and aircraftsi think i'll make a ba-inspired shmup one day. just cute girls and a scifi setting

>>740696740They unironically pump and dump their mediaLeast Nintendo thought ahead of themselves
>>740693971>Fox Flare NightThis looks like a Burunyanman spiritual successor.
>>740693000Thanks for posting.
>>740693391I really hope the DFK demo isn't fully accurate to the final game because the demo showed very little that was actually new
>>740694168How do you TURBO NIGGERS still think Touhou is reclining when it's still doing well and still extremely popular with young people getting in all the time now? Does nobody here pay attention to 例大祭 anymore? I hate all of you fags
Remilia stays on winning, mountanl gods, lunarians and ghosts can stay seething
>>740684876underrated post
>>740697185Wonder Stones' bullet cancellling and de-emphasized modern stage tropes like bulky fairies or excessive streaming make for some of the most fun stages to play & improve in series historyBosses are a bit more of a mixed bag including the bullet vomitting pyramid midbosses, Ariya's weak visual presentation especially for her early spells, clashing with competent enough, fun bosses like Toyohime and her weird duck and cover style spell. Shot customisation is ultimately undermined by cheevos only caring by the most insignificant of the 4 stones you get to customize. The game fails to offer incentives for messing with its variety. It does feel good to play a Marisa that doesn't suck ass but she is doing so by blatantly stealing Sanae's frogs. Your mileage may vary with it as it is still there. Looking forward to 21 assuming ZUN does shit all this year as EoSD remake steals attention and lets him get away with it, which isn't necessarily a bad thing.
>>740698465Comiket numbers are waaaaaaay downLike 3 different gachashit are above 2hu nowadays
flan's rights are human rights
>>740698745nta but the thing he posted is literally Reitaisai, which has gotten more numbers last time in comparison to pre-covid numbersComiket getting flooded with other shit just made 2hufags flock back to Reitaisai, Kouroumu, and the 10 bajillion other 2hu conventions.
>>740698672the final spell is just PDH with different bullet sprites lol
>>740699326>pre-covid Now compare it to the heyday
>>740698045ATFBooru, nigga. All the lolicons use it.
>>740697185Best overall patterns ZUN has made since 15. Bosses are generally fun to dodge and pretty expressive/unique from one another. Gimmick is slightly overblown but not as badly as beast spirits were, much less shopping. Still happy to see one of the moonbitches make a canonical in-game appearance.
>>740678337I will play it.
Touhou is somehow gigantic but still not mainstream among normalfags
Is the uncensored version of Memories of Phantasm basically lost media now? I heard some anons talk about a collection of OPs and EDs that had visible nips and pussies however most I could find were sketches from the onsen scenes.
>>740700037Ever wondered why?
>>740700037It never will be. Normalfags don't care about STGs and Touhou's setting is too Japanese for them too.
>>740699787nigga if you combine all three of the forerunners of Comiket today, it won't surpass Touhou circle numbers in the late 2000's, and even those numbers will pale in comparison to Reitsaisai's peakComiket and how circles work is just different now that there's more than one thing people are interested in
>>740700037That's good.Why the fuck do people want this shit to be infested by fucking normalfags?
>>740700286Online distribution is also bigger than ever
>>740700037The most mainstream touhou has ever gotten is fumofaggotry to the point some faggot posted himself in the army with a fumo
>>740694168Raped by ship slutsRaped by Blue Archive
>>740700037It's pretty normalfaggy already to be honest
>>740700443>The most mainstream touhou has ever gotten is fumofaggotry https://youtu.be/OeEIteQmpHE
>>740700610u fukken wot m8?
>>740700352I don't, but with this remake I fear the worst.
>>740700717To be fair normalfags have no idea Bad Apple is from Touhou, at least with fumos they are aware of the characters.
>>740700748nta but he's right to some degree
>>740682780oh no no no no no they're going to replace the jojo references with something about fascism or some bullshit
>>740694057I can now play all PC touhou games on the go on my ayn thor and steam deck but I just... don't
>>740682780aight', dropped. I'll see how it goes after release.
>>740699804I don't like it because of all the roleplaying trannies
>>740697185I tried it on Lunatic just yesterday actually, here's some thoughts >Stages are pretty fun actually, I don't mind bulky fairies as they are clearly meant to be like the big enemies in a traditional shmup, they just don't look the sort>Patterns are ridiculous however, and some feel untested, the game plan is to skip those with a bomb or hyper which is just Nu-hu tradition but FW probably does it the best, even better than LoLK because I hate having to graze for resources and having a shield just feels wrong >The shot customization thing is very fun even if there is a clear meta pick>Ariya's spells in particular are mostly lame as shit, that final one is "Random Bullshit Go" >Music is pretty good, Stage 3 is amazing>Toyohime + the fortune thing + EoSD remake kind of tells me ZUN isn't afraid of looking back which is exciting. No this isn't about Mima, other characters have gotten the shaft even in the print works for the longest time>Bullet cancels are funny and chaining the yellow hyper which basically gives you invincibility ala Otter is extra funny>Extra is back and it's good, great music>ZUNpets breaking was maybe a blessing in disguise because it let ZUN get a little more experimental. I actually like Stone Goddess as a song>Characters are great, but those weren't a low point in 17 or 18 either. 20 just has a cooler overall story, while 17 has the MUCH cooler final boss fightIt's a fun game but not perfect. Maybe one of my favorites anyway, it felt like ZUN put his heart into it and combined with EoSD it feels like he's sort of treating it as MoF 2, a blatantly new era
>>740678337>WEEB SHIT: THE GAME
>>740683070they're gonna make Remilia a Hitler allegory, the fog will be a metaphor for the oppressive force of the proletariat and Reimu will be revealed as sympathetic to communism. Meiling will convince her.
>>740701852That would make the game good and zun doesn't do that anymore
Stop doomposting, the ones to actually translate the game were thcrap people, they just made a tweet about it.
>>740701709>WEEB KINO: THE GAMEYes, chud. Now present your balls so I can crush them.
>>740701709>Angry zoomer pisses himself at sight of game with gameplay.
>Touhou 6 with a visible hitbox markerWowow weewow
>>740702235holy based Kaguya
>>740694168No it needed to be an UE5 extraction shooter
Why unlimited lives but no auto bomb?
>>740702186True, Dragonbaby was not involved with Marisa on Liartop Mountain, and they are not involved with this one. Alliance Artd is just the publisher. Also, this game should have been shadowdropped. No shadowdrops in this direct, right?
Clearing EoSD with the hurtbox dot is didn't 1cc the game tier.
lolis: the game
>>740682780Actually they are just borrowing the THpatch translationDo you really think they'd have like 12 languages otherwise?
>>740702436>unlimited liveswhere
>>740702714Explain to me why they couldn't release this on ps4
>>740702780because ps4 sucks ass like all consoles that have been made obsolete my PC
>>740702675im in it for the hags
>>740702731Its literally says right there in the trailer. Forgive me /v/ but I suck at touhou and will use this feature
>>740702886Ps4 is only 5 years old
>>740695925Shmups are all about patience and perseverance they serve as a natural filter for shallow impatient faggots
>Unlimited livesas if touhou isn't casual enough already
>>740702675EOSD is a maid fetish game
>>740702908probably won't give you the true endings, isn't this just the continue system?
>>740702908>Forgive me /v/no, your 1cc will be revoked if this game allows unlimited lives and gives you the clear status
>>740702714I guess that means the decimal system is safe.
I stopped playing after Mayumi's game. What are some good in-game music that came out since then?

>>740681379I've never actually managed to get to Flandre cause I suck too much to beat the game on normal. I love bullet hell games but I just don't have the eyesight for them.

>>740700748Well, I wouldn't necessarily assume some Westerner is posting on 4chan anymore, on the basis of him being a fan of Touhou, while you could absolutely still do so just 10 years back.It's a series of fun games and the variety of derivative works is mesmerizing. It would be odd, if there were no normal people enjoying it.
>>740704964Zanmu makes me go zamn...
>>740705001I think it's not (and never will be thanks to the games being shmups) mainstreamI have seen multiple franchises become mainstream and I specially noticed it online or even by my friends discovering them, 2hu never did that 20+ years later
>>740705684normalfaggy != mainstream
>>740705950mainstream is even harder to achieve than thatBA is king in comiket and that is still not a mainstream franchise
>>740706131>mainstream is even harder to achieve than thatWell, that was exactly my point.Thanks for your understanding.
>>740683489What was stopping you till now?
>>740693671You're thinking about the PC98 games.
>>740706624no infinite lives
>>740706887Anon, you just need to play again and try not to make the same mistakes, then again and again until you git gud enough to beat it.It's a 40-minute game, the actual fun is in getting good enough to beat it properly.
Why do you want 2hu to appeal to normalfags?
>inb4 remy doesn't show up if you use intinite lives and you get the ex modo endingPlease tell me ZUN still has a sense of humor
>>740696740Hard drive space used to be expensiveOr just bad dev practices of saving new shit over the old shit (Squeenix)
>>740706887continues?
>>740707270this remake being real is a pretty morbid joke if you ask me
>>740700931>at least with fumos they are aware of the characterslol nope
You're welcome, anons.>>740690689
>>740679480nigga this is on steam as well
I feel like the series has lost a bit of its magic since coming to Steam, wouldn't even say it's become more accommodating to normalfags, just that it feels differentBut there'll be EVEN more EoSD porn after this game comes out, so I still welcome it
>>740690756Touhou is not allowed on /v/, and neither is it allowed on /jp/
>>740703049>they call it "Challenge mode"japs fell off
20 points to EoSD
>>740708228>he made ZUN sell his soul to corporate greedare you a satanist, cuz that's an impresive judaic spell
>>740709120It's challenging you not to fall asleep.
>>740709230Greed such as collabing with other doujin circles
>>740709046/jp/ is for EN vtubers only
I've never played a 2hu game but ronald mcdonald insanity is the first meme I saw on the internet in the 00swhich game has that music in it?
>>740709386Don't forget about the 3dpd idol spam
>>740681379Still won't play the games but I'm at 1200 doujins read cover to cover and growing.
>>740709667This one
>>740694485>its more like normal as in "your mom could probably beat it"Nice self report that you're so NEET-maxxed that you think normal Touhou is normie tier.
Finally we can correct some mistakes now that there's an official english translation.× Cirnoo Chillno× Flandreo Flander
>>740709667>binging Nico Nico Douga MAD rips on YouTube when the video algorithm actually did its fucking jobgod take me back
>>740710197Fuck it, why not Frandoll
>>740710197>Chillno*Chiruno
PC-98bros....
where to find translated versions of the old games?
>>740710197It's Frandle, not Flander.
>>740700037What about in japan?
>>740694295>official English translation If only you knew how much worse things can get.
>>740710347Chiruno-chan!
this will make me boughting a switch 2
>>740710718cute
>>740710551We already know it's just the THpatch translation.
>>740710872But it's on Switch 1, PS5 and PC too...
>>740711051ok wellll =w=
>>740709230no , but I started playing when I saw some Touhou Diablo videos. Maybe there are greater forces at play here.
Bullet Heaven is the superior person vertically floating through magical crossfire game.
>>740710525Maid Cafes, Idols, red light district, girls on the street wearing prostitute outfits asking for dates are mainstream there. Touhou is pussy shit by their standarts.
>>740678337Reimu for Smash
>>740696740They don't want to lose their reputation of being the foremost experts on creating lost media.
>>740693384I wasn't good enough back then and wanted to put more time in other games but now, I will beat this damn sexy brat this time!
>>740711759I actually did 100% Bullet Heaven 1. 2 is a different beast, but there are ways to cheese it, otherwise getting Star rank on every level on Epic difficulty is genuinely insane.
>>740711981Dunderhead poster is scared...
>>740708228i guess i helped you a little by playing EoSD for the first time this week and putting this on loop almost all day longhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tc8iu0XFUQc
>>740712036The character pixelart looks overengineered compared to the lazy traced sprites
>>740712036If you've never beaten Flan, you never had any right to have fap, much less have sex with her
>>740713038I've never fapped to flan, her sister is superior.
>>740707128This.
Least expected thing ever, but kinda coolI pray that eventually PoFV is remastered with working online multiplayer
>>740710197>Flander
>>740713202Battle of the mids.They are not even half as good as Satori and Koishi.
>>740713663>KoishiShe's Flan's only competition when it comes to non-characters that have a ridiculous following.
The goat mogs flan
>>740713663
>>740713663>>740713859
I wish we got 1-5 remakes.
>Reimu in smash intensifies
>>740714150lmao imagine
>>740714150would be peak
PoFV remake with online play in 5 years, surely.
I have jacked off to touhou porn for over a decade and I still only know the bare minimum about the setting.
>>740714353Reimu is a violent jew is all you need to know
>>740714353To be fair the doujin, manga and fangames have done more to the setting than the mainline games themselves
>>740714353I have played all the mainline games, but know jackshit about the story or 90% of the underage girls names.
>>740681379EOSD was good but I'm more looking forward to PCB and IN, I fucking love IN so much Mokou was my first ever extra stage boss clear
I already have this game
I haven't played these games since 17.Have I missed out on anything if I considered that game and the one before it to be bad?
When does this come out? How much is it?Is it only going to be on the japanese eshop??
>Says this>Makes remake which overshadows the youngsters’ games
>>740714758I think I will donate to the Hakurei shrine after seeing this image
so how are they handling the ost? if this goes well, then it would be cool if they remade the other un-rereleased windows games
>>740714758There's an English video on their youtube so I think it's an international release
>>740714747A bit, 18 and 20 are actually pretty fun.
>>740714758>reimu after she reads about sacred prostitution
>>740714758get it on steam
>>740714907https://x.com/10431033_65/status/2064381225553506345It seems ZUN himself is remaking the OST.
>>740714353>>740714512I have 1C'd all the mainline games, did plenty of Extra Stages and I have a very vague understanding of what's going on in every game.Stuff like Scarlet Devil and Nights are easy to get, more or less, I don't get most of other Touhou plots nor do I try to get them.Thinking about Touhou's lore and plot is frustrating and takes fun out of it, it's much funnier if I just turn Gensokyou into my playground, I think a lot of people do that.
>>740713663Good choices, but I present:
>>740714758What I'm hoping for is the same price as the other games on Steam, which is 10 bucks for the oldest ones, or like 15 for the newer onesBut yeah, for some reason, I'm expecting it to be more expensive; they're probably gonna milk that TH6 hype as much as they can (especially since it's releasing on console too)
>>740714150>dunderhead poster when Reimu gets confirmed
>>740715080>I have 1C'dIt's 1cc, it means "one-credit clear". Japs call it "no-con clear", referring to the fact you haven't used a continue.
>>740713663>They're not as good as purple Remilia and green Flandre11 is my favorite but we can all see what ZUN tried to do with those, and it worked
Does anyone else not find any Touhou characters attractive in a sexual way? I just like the gameplay, music, and characters. Maybe I haven't seen the right art but I don't look at say Flandre and think "PLAP PLAP GET PREGNANT" I just see the hard bitch I can't beat.
>>740715182NOOOOOO! CIRNOOOOOOO!
>>740715225Also known as a 1 Credit Clear
>>740714758>>740715137They've shown a pic for the steam release, 2k yen for the game and 3k yen for game+downloadable OST.It's probably gonna be 20 and 30 bucks respectively for us gaijin.
Japan is going apeshit
>>740715080>I have 1CC'd all the mainline gamesOk, NMNB them all
>>740715312ZUN's art is the least sexualized stuff ever and I think a similar thing has happened to me where since my first genuine interaction was playing the games I just associate the characters with the game art.I don't like jacking it to 2hus. They are pure maidens, meanwhile gacha sluts are easy to jack off to because that's what they are for, you know?
This remake might be the best thing to happen to Touhou in years. Super hype for the inevitable IN remake.>>740682514>>740682702Classic Mode won't have these things.>>740682780They aren't translating the game, ZUN's working with fantranslators.>>740687619>>740686959They're different artists recreating ZUN's EoSD art in higher res.>>740692510For 10+ old games $15 is way too steep, shit like MoF should be $5. Especially if these games have 0 changes.>>740694168It may help, especially if PCB and IN are given the same level of care.>>740697379Nope, recreation as close as humanly possible.>>740700037Need Easy Modo replaced with Infinite Lives>>740697185AI slop
>>740715489This is the first time Nintendo ever acknowledged Touhou too. Kino.
this is how touhou beats gacha in one step
>>740715042i don't want to play it on my steam deckI want to play it on my switch 2
I don't get the excitement, it's literally the same EoSD game we have played decades ago but with updated art. Nothing new
>>740715091Shion is great, but I don't like Joon that much.
>>740715225>Japs call it "no-con clear", referring to the fact you haven't used a continueI always say 1C'd, it became a bad habbit. >>740715312I used to feel this way as well until my friend started sending me art of Patchouli. I find Flander and Remilia really attractive personally, I also love vampires so that might play into it.>>740715516But I love bombs.>>740715830I'm mostly really excited for ZUN redoing the music, even years later it has some of my favorite ZUN's tracks.
>>740715312Tsukasa is the only ZUN art that turns me onBut I've fapped to fanart plenty of times
>>740715830You can take it with you on the go now.
>>740678337This reveal will go down in vidya history
>>740715830>updatedit's AI slop
>>740714150The fact they didn't put it in the english direct despite having an english version is the only proof you need it's not happening.Maybe they'll add a costume as a consolation prize though.
>>740715907>But I love bombs.Aw, come on, no miss at least
>>740715574your last reply made your whole post dogshit that isn't worth considering, you should have started with that one
Not showing this in the English direct seems very retarded to me, what's the big idea?
>>740716050Coney is such a chud.
>>740716230Coney is one of our own.
>>740716050LOL
>>740716206Sorry I don't engage in dogshit and have standards
>>740716220japanese release only
>>740716220It'd cause the normalfaggots to have a meltdown.
>>740716220Nintendo didn't want to confuse their western audience. The majority of people who like Touhou in the west don't watch Nintendo Directs.
Looking forward to this in hd. https://youtu.be/01skyPMeeoc?si=zy-N2tw_9gwH0oJU
>>740716658still the most schizo first 10 seconds ever, love it so much
Thank you Nintendo for letting us finally have a thread on /v/ without fear of mods smiting us down
>>740716220the less western secondaries the better
>>740715907>ZUN redoing the musicIs that true? I watched the trailer and it's the same music.
>>740716814This thread is surprisingly chill too. There is no schizo posting or porn dumps.
>>740716814>he doesn't know
>>740716934You didn't notice anything different about Shanghai Teahouse?
>>740716658We only care about U.N. Owen was her
>>740716050Are they reacting to the same thing? It looks edited, fake and gay.
>>740716915This
>>740717048It is, EoSD was only in the JP direct.
>>740717023Meiling's theme is super good. I wish it got more love instead of her stage theme.
This is the 2nd most viewed individual trailer Japanese trailer, behind Zelda, but x2 above the runner ups for 3rd, and the likes of Fire Emblem, Xenoblade, Pokopia's DLC, DQM4, Splatoon Raiders, among others.
>>740717008Ah I didn't watch the full trailer, yeah the re-arrangement doesn't sound bad, it's missing his iconic trumpets.
>>740716220This is the NoA CEO. That should tell you everything.
>>740717192Tell me more about this girl, is she called Eternity Butterfly now?
>>740717178It wasn't look at the reflection on their eyes and glasses and some cut background of the direct, it's clearly not the Touhou Project Trailer.
>>740717315ZUNpets supposedly broke during Touhou 20 so the remake oddly won't have them.
>>740717192>check youtube comments>see thisOh? Maybe perception of Western audiences are wrong?
>>740717343>le BBC smile
>>740717472should also mention these are the immediately top comments
>>740716220wasn't nintendo literally asking random anime game devs to change their character head proportions to look older some time ago? the troons at treehouse probably saw the zun designs and started screaming that its literal child porn and banned it off the direct
>>740717601I think jewtube prioritizes your account's language somewhat in the comments
>>740717472Only among Touhou fans which is a specific section of the terminally-online ecosystem in the web
>>740717421He was replying to the second part, anon.
>>740717192And people say 2hu ain't popular
>>740717472They always hide the cool shit that they're too scared that people outside of Japan won't give a shit aboutIn one of the last directs, the Mega Man Star Force collection was only in the Japanese directI guess for this one it 's not Nintendo, it's probably cheaper to have your game featured only in the Japanese direct
ZUN is a nationalist who absolutely hates westerners
>>740717472What do the moonrunes versions comments say?
>>740718069absolutely based
>>740694168>again
>>740717048It's the realest thing in this thread.
>>740718057>>740717472Not just this but I just learned the Japanese direct showed EDF while the american one didnt
>>740680081this made me brain blast for a sec
>>740718097A lot of happy comments I couldn't find anything particularly funny though
I'll draw flanny, any ideas? NSFW is fine
>2hu games are on sale on steamWoah, have they ever been on sale before? I thought ZUN always skipped the big seasonal sales.
What's the point of remaking an older touhou game?They all look the same anyway even the newer ones
>>740718707money
>>740683190If it's so great why was the localization butchered with shitty memes, fascism, and cutting out uteruses?
>>740680081ZUN stole the precious code
>>740714353Try reading Symposium of Post-Mysticism. It's an in-universe publicized roundtable that explains a lot of the core concepts of the setting up to TH13. It also has in-universe bios for a bunch of characters.
>>740718503popping out of a switch 2 or something related to it
>>740718707He's been porting the old ones to Steam for the past few years now and got to the point where he got to games that the original source code no longer exists.For years he just basically threw his hands up and said oh well but a bunch of circles twisted his arm into letting them work with him to remake it.
>>740717384It's just an old fanmade design for a supposed God form for Larva. In the events of Touhou 16, it was Eternity's backdoor that enabled Cirno to tap into the power of the in between seasons, Doyou, the universal shot type used for Extra stage. After beating her and exchanging words with Cirno, Okina suspects this may have been planned by Larva all along, and suspects she may be Tokoyo no Kami. All we know is that she's based off Tokoyo no Kami, a supposed God of the Everlasting World. or rather, that's what the cult surrounding it claimed, before one of the inspiration for Okina's character, king of the Hata clan, took down the clan and the caterpillar. The cult of Tokoyo no Kami spread during 7th century at a time where people were starving, they needed some hope to cling on to. Larva's pretty much a more folkoric, eastern Rumia, born a decade too late to really be popular, but I bet people would have gone crazy back in the day about her. Oh well, it's still an interesting story.

>>740694019that doesn't matter, like not even a single tiny bit. They let it happen, they will let it happen again.
>Aside from OoT, EoSD currently has the most views out of any of the japanese uploads for the trailers and it's not even close
>>740718798How does that affect the quality of the game for someone not playing the game in muttrunes?

>>740722512I care about my games being made with effort and not just slopping backgrounds together.Actually looking for and license checking stock art, plus the manipulation of the stock art in the game like IN turning a stock hotel entrance to an endless corridor of doors, is what makes the magic happen.But keep slupring up whatever garbage ZUN shovels out.
I'm listening to iosys songs to celebrate \(ω)/

>>740714758>When does this come out?Cirno Day, unironically.
>>740725628Nice, thank you
>>740725953I liked this side game
>>740720749How do you even get past this?
The other thread hit the bump limit and this one's about to as well
>>740728665Satori's flat chest...
>>740728665We had a good run
>>740728665you can always make another thread
If I've never played a 2hu game should I get this?I never did actually play them because I didn't like bullet hells but now I've gotten into arcade shmups and I feel like I want to try it now
>>740718707This is what we call Capitalism.Instead making HGSS-like remake, you sloppily retexture the game and sell it at full price to whales who buy anything with their favorite brand logo on it.Add in a few censorships here few new features that no one asked for there (sometimes replacing beloved features) so that drones can justify paying full price for a game that is over 20 years old and you can just pirate or get for way cheaper (of course before they start taking the original off the market so you’re forced to buy the new thing).Not even Pokemon, the series that set the gold standards for remakes, is was safe from the Demake crisis.
>>740729093It's not out until September but you can get the original for free on doujinstyle
>>740728665>other threadLiterally doesn't count as a thread because it was made by an illiterate nigger.
>>740728665Back to the sewers we go, only to surface for the occasional Chen thread on /a/
>>740729093Sure, try it out? Bear in mind that ZUN can't fucking draw.
>>740729271does it work on Linux?
>>740729742Apparently so, with Wine.

>>740694019>fixed itThey didn't. They wrote a completely different script instead of translating, then removed the worst parts and called it fixed.
