DS virtual schoolgirl relationship simulation Love Plus has sold over 100,000 copies, with highly positive buzz having pushed sales on from the 45,000 copies sold in the first week.
Fans of the game are adamant about the worth of their virtual girlfriends, with “who needs real women when you have Love Plus” being a commonly heard sentiment online. Others have branded it “social poison,” saying it robs men of the opportunity to date real women by enthralling them with the charms of a virtual relationship.
In one key aspect the game differs from most dating simulators or visual novels – much of its appeal is based on cultivating and maintaining a “relationship” based on the games “real time clock” system, and on simple voice recognition, rather than pursuing a set-piece story or chasing specific characters, and it seems this element has successfully captured the hearts of many tens of thousands of ronery men.
That it is cheaper than a real girlfriend and significantly less risky than an actual schoolgirl must also help…
In any case, with 100,000 copies sold the game is a spectacular success for a dating game, and sequels and ports seem inevitable.
Love Plus ita-DS are now a common sight thanks to stickers being distributed with gaming magazines, and of course the efforts of lone craftsmen:






The game is available now.
Via New Akiba.
ah with these guys outta the gene pool life should make more sense now
Life makes more sense now?
Life is going to make sense some day?
What is sense?
Must be somehow related to the gene pool. Dunno.
Nah, cloning will be popular long before those guys die.
What is this 'sense' you people talk about?
Spider sense anyone?
Do they have out guys and stuff for girls?
And...by what I'm reading from this place....men aren't being "robbed" from dating real women. Sounds more like they're being saved?...
What is love ?
is common sense...

baby don't hurt me
Love= Love plus
Yeah there's a general attitude that women are all lying cheating money-grubbing whores. This belief is even stronger in Moonland than in the US. I can see why guys might percieve this and feel hopeless about dating. Mostly, though, it's probably a sort of "You can't fire me, I quit!" response from social rejects.

Sadly for you I don't think there's much market for a girl version of love plus but if you ask for it it might get done.
Since it supposedly women only want money a game boyfriend wont give you that. It might be part of the reason girl versions of these game don't exist.
But I'm curious, why don't you get a boyfriend? Is because guys are jerks? Because they are poor? Because they are ugly? A combination of above?
Maybe you are not confident in your own appeal?
It would be interesting to get an answer from a real girl.
In my eye's, I'm fuck ugly. But people tell me I'm average or above looking. Idk. When I was 7 I was told I was ugly by this older man and it completely destroyed my self-confidence.
I went from care-free, energetic kid to self-concious hika-....whatever. I'ma shutin. I exercise and keep in shape though. Last thing I need is someone saying "look at the fatty." God. I'll die.
Dating real guys? Guys aren't jerks. And if he's poor. I'll just get a job. If I can. But I just don't think a guys that patient. I'll cook and clean and all that stuff. But showing interest or any emotion at all? I can't. I guess I'm afaid of getting hurt. He'd have to wait and push the right buttons to get that fun-loving side of me. Which only comes out when I'm alone or with my dog. 'Cause she won't judge.

That is what cosplay is for. We all may be emotionally damaged, but temporarily being someone you are not gives you an excuse to not be yourself with all the baggage that comes with it. Someone most likely will take notice and just maybe get to know the real you.
Plus, cosplay sex is awesome. For both sides.
^ QFT, the whole comment, not just the last sentence.
There's always the simple paper bag if you don't have enough money for cosplay.
I hope no one will mind...

i wish those anime vaginas are fuckable, cuz i hate using hand... so I prefer fucking real women
There actually IS a version of this for girls. :/ it doesnt have as huge of a following because it doesnt have a lot of the features this has. It's also completely 2d anime style. It is also for the DS.
"Tokimeki Memorial Girls Side 1st Love Plus"
Female protag, bunch of male characters. Same old song and dance but not as advanced as this Love plus.
fffffeeehh!!! I DEMAND A MALE VERSION! that is even better <3 because why would you need real men when you can have virtual ones?
This is just sad ;_;
Less people, moar space for gaems and figyas!
You keep people in your room. Are you a slave master?
define slave master
No More...whoa whoa
who needs life when you have Love Plus
"ah with these guys outta the gene pool life should make more sense now"
The proper response would be
with these guys out of the gene pool we'll have more faggots and douches reproducing. Wtf is family values?
Don't forget the assholes... and jerks, too.
and rich people
seems their the only ones with a chance of getting laid nowadays
Actually the rich people die always alone because they have to high standards.
Don't you mean women?
Anyways, don't worry people. We still have whore houses. Soon, becoming a hooker will become a respectable job. MARK MY WORDS!
Soon? Come on men, there are HOOKERS that reach important goverment positions all over the world. Hookers rule the world.
By the way, prostitution is the ONLY work some women can do right.
Then gogogogo, say your mom she should become a prostitute since that what she cant do everything else right.
Congratulation son of a whore!
Let me clarify: law wasn't improved with women lawyers, and neither bussines with bussineswomen, so if they are good looking, let they be ho's, if they can cook, so be housewives, and if they are ugly, fat and retarded; then let women be Equality Now activist!
Why su butthurt everytime someone writes the word "whore" or "hooker"? It is related in someway to your line of work? Do you preffer to be adressed as a "call girl" or "escort"?
People that don't work as that, shouldn't be named that. Or should we call all men garbageman now?
garbageman are better than you Ayu. I generously tip the ones on my city and I'm really glad we have that useful people to take care of our shit.
You do anything for society besides pee standing?
If you don't count software development, fashion design, medical attendance and organizing protests against hentai bans, no.
If you do all that shit, them I own fuking Dubai.
But ok, not all are whores, there also bitches. Happy?
You own Dubai? Poor you...
Software development did I learn at school (and in my free time, I wanted to become computer scientist first), fashion design is my hobby (I even win always at the clothing design contest by the famous japanese brand Bodyline), medical attendance was I needed to learn for my future job and the protests are just because I love hentai (not all thought).
C-C-C-Combo breakeerrrr
I don't know about that. Seems we have plenty of other detriments to the gene pool that will still be present.
What is Sense of Life?
PERTAMAX !
Nice info... it seems the world is really at an unstable condition if they really say "Who needs real women"
Just wait for the Sony Sexbots with Realistic Love Plus upgrades to come out in about 7 years.

Seconded... I get an orgasm just thinking about playing this!

TBA means it doesn't exist yet
A patch for it exists.
no it means they are working on it if go to the translators website the nearly done hacking the rom so maybe a year or two max for them to fully translate it
Losers... just learn japanese.
Loser. Spend your time doing something more meaningful. Like cultivating your relationship with your 3D girlfriend. Who needs to learn how to interact with other people when you can get your own significant other made and mass produced for you?
lol spoken like a true anon.
Do they have hentai scenes?
Yes they do, they even make use of the camera to take a photo of your package so the in-game character recognizes how small it really is.
Neat.
TLWiki is working on it already.

Who want to date with a real bitch ?
real bitch got real pussy D:
wtf would I want to do with a cat D: ?
Petting her?
And, if it is a kitty, girls will swarm around you!
Actually, that happens at all kinds of cute animals. Bunnies and hamsters work best.
a cat is fine too
Bunnies are a delicacy, I will buy some rabbit meat next time I do shopping!
Persocoms would be better. Customizable to your peverted beastial needs. And unbitchy.
Agree
A cat is fine too..
Tohno Shiki guarantees it!
What about simply dating someone that's NOT a bitch...
"What about simply dating someone that's NOT a bitch..."
Good looking finding that.
"real bitch got real pussy D:"
So do whores.
Whores also have the advantage of being cheaper and without any emotional baggage you need to deal with.
Laugh at moron who think all women are "bitch"
Japanese men prove their worthlessness again, still how much does this game cost?
Also, the girl in the last pic is my waifu now. :)
Still I find it sad that Japanese women are losing their attractiveness to freaking Pixels? Does anybody see how funny that is?
still 2D>3D, prove me wrong!
the 3D one is too expensive :P
Actually 3D costs you nothing... Nobody says that you have to pay them if you don't want to, but people don't think that far.
True, you have to pay ~49 dollars for a cartridge to get the game...
So S.Valentine gifts, b-day gifts, anniversary gifts, rings and jewelry even before making it a truly serious relationship isn't expensive? Sure, there are girls who do realize materialistic demonstrations of love aren't really the best, but seriously said, how many?
Nowadays not being dressed in a certain "cool" way already means being cut out from that "real dating" game youngsters learn love from.
Established relationships are then costly for obvious reasons, not to speak about wives and families.
Overall, whether you date a girl from your high school or propose your best friend and work colleague to marry, the expense is never a trivial thing.
So whatever the case a 2D girl can give far more emotional satisfaction for a far lower price.
Xbox 360 port using Natal please...
Actually, woman prefer stuff made from heart then jewelry and they don't anything besides the materials you need...
Also like I always say, the most woman aren't materialistic, only teens on those who think they are paris hilton.
You might be one of those exceptions here then, Ayu. Of the women who want things made from the heart as opposed to outright buying it. I mean.... if one news report is correct, 65% of Japanese women want to marry men who make OVER a set amount... no lower. How can that *not* show materialism? o_0
I'm betting many guys here (including myself) would've wished to have met someone like you already and been in a fulfilling relationship with that special girl/woman. But sadly, that's not the case. Most of us here are disillusioned with REAL women. And seeing the way the media molds the minds of young girls these days, as they have over the past century or so, how can men NOT feel depressed about their chances at Love?
Actually it is more that way, that woman of that kind prefer to stay at home and don't seek attention outside, what is also the reason why you find them in a high population in polls like that.
Women want a penis made of chocolate which ejaculates money.
Come on Ayu, we know you are a bitch, we judge you because of that, but we understand its in your nature. Snakes are supposed to be poisonous and a Caucasian girl in Japan is supposed to be bitchy. So be it.
-German girls scares the shit out of me, because they’re stronger and taller than meee-
You should know there are many caucasian-asian mixed girls these days in japan.
Yes, it's called the decline of Japanese civilization. So you are half yellow? ught
Kind of, my father is half-japanese but my mother isn't it in any way. I wonder if it is the decline of japan, why ones like Ayumi Hamasaki and many others are the most famous "japanese" people? There are no pure japanese existing anymore since a long long time, special since many chinese, korean and american people mix with them.
Oh fuking shit.... Hamasaki is mixed? Who else? ;-(
Gonna shoot me in the nutsack now...
Just search for ハーフ (hafu) which is the word for half-japanese people or Wikipedia [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hafu].
'Actually it is more that way, that woman of that kind prefer to stay at home and don't seek attention outside'
Almost all modern women deviate from society these days though.. or at least immerse themselves in other things such as art, literature, and the internet..
and to the 'chances at Love'..
most Japanese women/modern women are content with staying single because of the fact that they want to meet their 'fated' one..
men and women both have unrealistic standards.. loving 2D or at least wanting a beautiful wife is the same as women wanting a Mr Right..
and.. in the end is it really that surprising women are content with staying single and that some are materialistic..?
most women have no real reason to marry for the sake of marrying anymore.. they are financially independent, educated, and the social pressure for them to get married has vanished..
meeting new people after education for most is difficult, being raised in an over-sexual environment doesn't really do much good for how they perceive us men either.. and the fact is that most are raised in a apathetic and claustrophobic environment, where money means everything..
love can only do so much..
those who say money isn't important, merely have to little money to care or have never had problems with money..
in the end I blame ego in general..
tl;dr
'We look at each other wondering what the other is thinking but we never say a thing.'
and.. forsaking reality solves most problems..
"men and women both have unrealistic standards.. loving 2D or at least wanting a beautiful wife is the same as women wanting a Mr Right.."
Men having given up on the monstrous existence that is called Woman is not the same as Woman having absurd standards to justify their love of "Mister Right." We just want to be loved, and if the only feasible way to get that love is with two screens, a pointer, and a snapshot of my penis, then so be it.
@ Ayu: Oh Dear Lord, I feel for you now.... -_-
Guys? How about cutting her some fucking slack? If your gonna fling shit around, might as well get nice and dirty yourselves.
Me? I'm 6' 4", 300lbs, and of mostly Germanic descent. Doesn't make me a better person for it. Just makes me really REALLY big. But there are people bigger than me, so I feel at least -somewhat- normal. :D
So, does it -really- matter that that Yamato Nadeshiko in a seifuku you're currently drooling over isn't pure-blooded Japanese? NO. It doesn't. Your dicks are *still* gonna be shouting to the Heavens, " OH YEAH, LEMME AT THAT ASS!", as you whack away crying tears of regret that you will never ever meet her in real life.
@ Anon 05:33: Dude.... I don't want to see a snapshot of your pants. Hell, I don't want to see a snapshot of *my* pants. I see it every day, so why take a picture of it?
I agree, Ayu. I don't know if my opinion counts because I'm 14 and brazilian nerd girl lol but I don't really care about gifts... well, if my boyfriend wants to give me something I want like a figure, I would totally accept.. but it's not necessary at all /o\ I wouldn't stop loving him because he doesn't give me gucci bags (I don't even want shits like this), but I really know whore women. And they are large marjority
I agree with Miroku74. What on earth is wrong with people on this site....the way you're treating Ayu here is totally uncalled for. Ayu, I hope you don't think all guys are like these assholes. Some men are nice.
Annoying Anon: And you know how many RL women or teens?
You probably don't even go outside and only hear about people from the internet. GTFO.
(Well, yes, there are many people like that, but I think that you're overestimating.)
ppl shouldn't talk to Ayu like this, but this is Sankaku, that's why I'll not complain
And lol, Miroku, you're very tall.. I'm just 5"
Come on Ayu, don't rely on this faggots, if you want to be "one of the boys" take the shit yourself.
@Brazilian loli: congrats, your country got the olimpics; you will have thousand of foreing clients ;)
^
^@Anon 14:28: Look.... it was just her getting dog-piled by a bunch of (very likely) *male* anons that forced my hand. Far as I can see, she's covering herself in glory without my help, or the help of others.
-------------
Even so, do the rest of you pull this shit on women YOU disagree with IRL? I'm betting the answer for the most part will be 'no'. THIS would be one reason why women won't date you, and your mothers (if they care at all) would smack the taste out of your mouths for even *thinking* of them as bitches.
You don't have to be a rich or suave motherfucker to Get the Girl,but you DO have to prove you're DEPENDABLE. And again, I'll lay good money down most of you are not anywhere near being remotely dependable. So.... that leaves you with just Rosie's company most nights, doesn't it?
In closing: If you really want this game, don't let anyone else stop you from investing in (what you would consider) time well spent. But to resort to shitflinging at other who disagree with you? That's just fucking juvenile. That's another thing women don't like in a potential mate. Plus, you look twice as pathetic ganging up on a lone female poster who disagrees with you.
The tl;dr portions mean GROW THE FUCK UP!
@Miroku74: u want to throw some shit at me? Try better.
First: nobody asked Ayu personal stuff until she began to comment it. I don’t know, it looks like she enjoys to get attention. Obviously, the more you expose, the more you get trolled.
If you really want/need to troll me it’s really quite easy: why not begin with my grammar or spelling? I mean, it’s quite obvious that I’m not a native English speaker and half of the shit I write makes no bloody sense at all.
But, if you need something else, I may add:
I’m a white pig 1.8 mts tall, and 130 kgs fat (you do the fucking math I refuse to use the primitive English system). If that’s not enough I may add…
I live in a country were nobody cares to flush the toilet after using it. I live in a country when you have to walk 5 kilometers to take a bus. I live in a country were you buy food from a bus and you then eat that food in another bus. Enough?
I'll give credit where credit's due: your English is a lot better than the kids *I* grew up with.
Who knows? Maybe she does get off on the attention. I wasn't focusing on that aspect of it. I was focusing on how badly others were treating -her-. If I'd seen another anon..... how the hell am I supposed to tell the lot of anons apart, goddamnit?!...... getting their e-teeth kicked in, I'd jump to their defense as well. Yeah..... I'm a dirty white knight in rusty fucking armor. 'No good deed goes unpunished' and all that.
I'm at a point in my life where I don't feel the need to prove anything. I state my opinions, plain and simply. That's it. If you took it as trolling, then sorry. But I will not stand by while I see bullshit going on. This isn't 4chan. This isn't 2chan. This is a place to comment on news articles that the site admin and moderators post. That doesn't mean we need to drag things into the mud to make our bones about a particular subject. FUCK. ><
There's only so much time to each day. I can only spend so much of it here online.
LOL: You forgot to say that you got the “we’re having a private party” welcome on nightclubs.
Please, Anon. Your materialistic thinking is a shame for those who love 2D girls with all their heart. You don't understand it, IT'S NOT ABOUT MONEY!
You must be new here
THE HEART WANTS WHAT THE HEART WANTS!
Its pretty much about how guys don't want to get up off there fat asses and do a little bit more work now and then.
3d one gives you aids and syph
2d give you muscular right arm
Or left arm, for our 'unique' friends out there.
you're forgot foot.
Tried to do onanism with my left arm and I just cannot come =/
I use my left :P
I'm black, so naturally i use 2 hands
As long as you live you'll be spending money one way or another and yes relationship cost money. But I don't see much of a problem buying something for your love ones, of course you can't buy all the thing she want but from time to time should be alright.
For instance when I go to visit my mom she tell me not bring her anything,but I still buy her a bag or something and yeah she "gladly" accept it and be happy. But in my book paying for the movie or dinner may cost you a little but spending some time together doesn't.Unless you are one of those people who strongly believe she should pay her bill or pay "our" bill, then you should know you are a cheapskate. You should play this game for fun not because you want a "fake" relationship.
"Japanese men prove their worthlessness again, still how much does this game cost?"
You do realise you just insulted yourself?
Yuu're so close as well.
Keep trying. One day you might even understand how jokes work.
OK I'm worthless shit? And SO what? Douchebag...
That it is cheaper than a real girlfriend and significantly less risky than an actual schoolgirl must also help…
i lold so hard because its so true
This needs a fucking translation so badly (*´Д`)ハァハァ
more like, you need your fucking head caved in for even wanting to play this otaku BS
And btw why are YOU here, fellow anon?
Anon 21:51 GFTO!
^ Butt hurt XD
UH My samefag sense is tickling!
EN agent lurking for comments.
Hey I like these kinda games as well but to replace real women with fake women is just sad.
HARD Dick Slap for you all!
Not "replace", "suppliment".
Invest some time in learning Japanese and stop wishing for Dubs and Translations. With Feminist groups on the prowl in most English speaking countries, you're not going to pick this up at your local Game stop any time soon.
Without the need for translations, you'll have much broader access to the world of 2D schoolgirls.
BTW, all of you stop salivating over games you know you're not going to buy.
SOME of us have to do things like.... I dunno.... -take care of families and pay heavy bills- rather than throw hundreds of dollars at something which will only prove useful to watch/read/play Japanese multimedia.
And no, I refuse to pirate that shit off of torrents. Like I NEED the possibility of lawlsuits keeping me awake at nights. :/
Next?
Haha! You can study and get a Bachelor degree in Japanese for free in Norway,since we don't pay for our education. XD One of the best things about this country imo.
Sucks to be *me* then. Even with a state or federal grant, it STILL doesn't cover everything you need to pay for college/university here. :\
There is NO such thing like "copyright". It is the same shit saying "belive in God".
May dog flush you
And not to say that, according to the recent articles here, you'll also get a chance to score with real schoolgirls, as everyone now knows that in Japan, you can get a loli threesome for 50 bucks. The only requirement being able to use a mobile phone dating service.
PLEASE FOR GOD's SAKE can someone write a tutorial explaining how a tourist can reach that enjo kosai crowd.
AND be able to fly under that police radar, while they're at it.
Don't care for police, I'm a lawyer and I know how to deal with them ;)
Deal or no deal? Like in using the money from hookers to bribe them.
do want
always fucking schoolgirls with the japs
I'm willing to bet everyone of those men who bought this will never father children, which is a good thing.
But Agnes-chan said that games like this makes men rapists...
Angnes-chan is gay.
AMEN
I am not surprised
japanese men = fail
anyone who wants to play this = fail
you all fail
:o
More then just fail, epic fail! Its just like a female tamagochi.
You don't know anything about love!
More then enaugh, I have a boyfriend and I am actually the one who buys him presents and not otherwise. ;P
Having a 3D boyfriend = fail. Having a tamagotchi = win.
Nah, tamagochis are just disturbing. They walways want you to go earn money so you can afford food for them or they would die, besides that they wake you in the night because they are hungry. Also you can't have sex with them. :x
You just discribed the majority of japanese females.
want money, no sex etc.
And they are always nagging at you.
Not if you show them who is the boss.
So men should be the boss? You sexist pig.
At Ayuu Jochuu: you probably buy him presents of HIS money.
Not really, he doesn't even earn money since he is still in school and the money I use is from making 3D products for a 3D messenger.
EPIC POWNAGE!!! for the LULZ
Ayu Jochuu has a toy boy.. xD
No bitch!
You're suck that's why We prefer Love-plus than all of real girl like you!
Or if U're a man Just try it before said like this!!
If woman suck, your mother sucks badly.
Who claims to know what love truly is? At least I´m sure that most 3d girls don´t even begin to comprehend what a relationship is. I heartily support anon @21:48. I mean, girls have no feelings, (not that a machine has them), however, games can get much closer to emulating feelings than most women IRL.
2D girls have no feelings what 3D ones have, they are only programming.
moe programming
Good programming.
Programming by men. Behind every girl in this game and their personality is a male. Don't you feel gay already?
oooh sweet traps <3
Aya Jochuu was programmed by a male.
Hmn, not really.
Programmers don't really do anything slightly related to the story.
Also, #310260 is a troll.
Takes a guy (programmer) to understand the needs of a guy gamer...
I'm a poor programmer because I don't know what my client wants lol! They ask for the impossible...
I LOL every time I see these kind of comments about real woman. I wonder how distorted these people minds are about reality. You know guys, sometimes it is good to get out of your dark and isolated world (your room) and talk to real people. ^^
@Ayu Jochuu: I don't play eroge/sims as a substitute for talking to real women. It's an upgrade.
3D girls have no feelings what 2D ones have, they are only hormones.
@Ragefat: I would pay good money to have my room converted to a dark and isolated world.
No, that aren't hormones... Special since I am female and lack hormone activity but have feelings.
It's called dead feeling.
Since the creating is never really alive or existant in 2d.
@AmbientMoralityVictim: a lot of people would do that, the question is: can I really take for serious the opinion of someone about the outside world when this someone is enclosed in his own? That's what I meant in my comment above, don't get me wrong I love games and anime, subsequently I like 2D girls but like 3D ones as well, both of then have their good and bad sides (as almost everything in this world), so I wouldn't neglect one over the other. ^^
PS: having a dark and isolated world of your own is not bad as long as you don't forget that there are other places to go. XD
@Ayu: "I am female and lack hormone activity but have feelings." Are you retarded, death, a zombie or all of them? While being alive you secrete hormones all the fucking time!!! Without them you won’t be able to digest food, maintain your body temperature or sleep and awake.
Don't say that to me, say that to my doctor. :x
If you have troubles with your menstrual cycle (thanks for the horrid image) that it's not because you lack hormones, but MAYBE because a misbalance in the fucking hormones.
I think it's funny how a lot of these guys are so jaded over the opposite sex. I bet if a girl who was normal looking or less so gave them the time of day they'd probably take the chance at it.
i'd love to date a girl with a male personality. and no, i don't feel one bit gay about it.
you know why? because my personality is remarkably female. even if it wasn't so i wouldn't bother much.
wangs (except my own) = no thanks. the rest is open to taste. so, even a girl with a girl personality can be fine.
by the way, visual novel kind of games are quite nice for improving your japanese skills. those with complete voice acting (including the protagonist) are the best!
05:39 Anon: let me see if I understood: you have a "markably female" personality and you want to date "a girl with a male personality". Gosh, you are the epitome of GAYNESS.
Tell us more, you like musicals? Have any Village People album?
i'm a girl with male personality... XD
To anon @ 02-10-2009 21:37
You are SO damn wrong! I touched a loli jap vagina and touched HARD AND on a pool ! So you cannot say fucking shit about "fail". You are the ONLY ONE who FAIL for real here. GTFO!
I want the case soo badly...
Wow, with the game also hooked up with cables to a 'candy girl' with extra electronics to manipulate the proper places, we would only need someone to go shopping once a week.
I was thinking the same thing
DS does not have an insert penis slot!
How am I supposed to interact with the girls in the game!?
I guess the audio slot would do the job too D:
Tiny penis...
Anon :00 can fit his penis inside the mic of a DS.
Awesome, he can unite with the girls.
I wonder if he can get it out of it again...
I still don't understand how a 3D-girl could be more likeable than their 2D equivalents. They're real and you can touch them, but in ANY other regard they're inferior to 2D-girls.
Real life women can be quite cool, tbh. 2D is just a fantasy, one thats idealistic and would become utterly boring if you had to deal with it on daily basis.
Real people on the other hand have their own qualities and flaws, which makes them much more interesting to interact with.
No, no, no. Your understanding of the 2D is too narrow! The flawed personality is good too....in the 2D world. :D
See anon 21:52 that's your problem. You THINK that 2D girls are equal to 3D girls when 2D girls are just a bunch of numbers.
Everyone is a fucking bunch of number nowdays. Are you married or by any chance are you maried? Do the math, everything is numbers.
See now your just trying to steer the conversation towards me. No I haven't been married but I have had girlfriends. Sorry let me correct that real girlfriends there is a difference. Also like I said in another topic I like sim games but it just gets sad if you pick something that's fake over something that's real. All it really means is you just can't learn to deal with real life women and you just hide away in your cave (your room) all day playing sim games thinking that your actually in a relationship with something that doesn't even exist.
Japanese men have no soul.
They do have a soul... they just redeemed them for the above door prize. ^^
You forgot a "wo" there.
There is no fucking shit like "soul" and "life after death", all that is PURE SHIT.
This seems the right choise for me because I wont ever get a real girl because I fail at actually talking to opposite sex and I never go to places I could even meet opposite sex.
So I want TRANSLATION OF THIS GAME NOW!!!!!1111ONEONEoneone
You're just better off not existing.
If "how many girls you bang" is a measure of your quality as a human, then Brad Pitt must be the greatest human alive.
That he is. God bless him and his multicultural bastard children and Fight Club.
Fuck, I keep breaking the 1st rule.
Zetsuboushita...even! Exit, stage left.
No it only seems like the right choice for you because your a lazy fat ass that wont put down the fork to get out of the house and actually do something.
Leaving more girls for us.
"Leaving more girls for us."
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
Funny guy.
Maybe it was a girl.
I like your way of thinking.
Also it leaves more loli for us. ;D

WINNER AT LIFE
"you will die last"
Why doesn't the producer design a special peripheral which allows players to ml with their virtual girlfriend? With a full-voice version, the virtual girlfriend can react to the player's movement, well, that would be very exciting and interesting!
Critical flaw: movement controls suck. The Wii proved that.
What if it's not only movement, it's a hole with several sensors and force feedback motors in it?
Tried it, and seems bit too laggy.
If I play this + have a real girlfriend, is that cheating?
yeah but it's okay, only the 3D one is likly to break up with you over something so trivial, still keep the cheaper alternative
Like it was said before, 2D is way more expensive since you don't need to pay 3D anything if you don't want but you need to pay for updates, addons etc of 2D...
lies !
Just the hard facts...
Agree with Ayu though...
"you don't need to pay 3D anything if you DON'T WANT..."
People here are starting to go dutch anyway, so it's not about the money...
More like it's easier to get perfect waifu in 2D...
Well, the problem is that parents these days buy their little brats everything so they stop disturbing them. They should better teach their childs that it is a better feeling, if you work for your money so they never become greedy like some woman are these days.
Some men are just as greedy. It's all the same. Seems like that's the usual big city culture, more rural area does not seems to have as serious a problem.
But...
Still many ronery guys.
"don't need to pay 3D anything if you don't want"
You don't need to pay anything for 2D either, piracy does wonders for that. The big difference is that 3D will most likely not be there one day if you don't pay, but 2D will.
DS will spoil, will need to buy new one.
Batteries at least.
I think Ayu's onto something here with the whole 'having parents discipline their kids so they appreciate money more by working for it' bit though...
At least there'd be less whining in general. XD
Totally agree with you there. No one wants to work for the stuff now a days. Its always gimme this gimme that.
30 year old virgins just staying in there apartments waiting for there next allowance from there parents that work there asses off.
So true...
2D also cost money just look at my room with all these figures
You forget that this is the DS. It costs about $60 for the entire DS library, you're going to have a hard time beating that price. Not to mention marriage, good luck doing that on a $60 budget......
i'm pretty sure your 2d waifu will find out eventually and dump you too, you two-timing bastard.
in fact, i'm telling her right now. she's mine! MINE!
you can go try to get your 3d gf back if you care. i don't.
I play this, you have no real girlfriend.
*If you play this, you have no real girlfriend.
But if you play this and somehow miraculously got yourself a girlfriend, you'll be cheating on your 2D girl... or vice versa...
Just that 2D girls don't mind :D
Try to find many 3D girls who don't have a problem with you having a harem.
Time's up! That's what I thought.
2D > 3D.
But 2D girls have many thousands of other men that fap to them besides you.
Yes, I'm sure that all 3d girls are virgins and has never fucked another man before. Great logic Ayu
Who says that the 2D are virgins? Maybe they have fake hymens and plastic sugery too?
Both can be hookers (2D and 3D) but 2d hookers are cheaper, and can't get AIDS from them ;)
Fuck don't start up with the virgin crap anon 02:58. Just because your a virgin doesn't mean you need to be pissed at everyone else that's actually had sex.
Even if they pay for such sex!
Every time you start a new file, you've just started another thread in that multiverse. In that thread is your world and your girl, which no one else has.
love plus is being translated
http://vndb.org/v2099
This confirms my saying that 3d(real world/real girls) have no worth. If I would have to choose to go date some girl, lets say a good looking one in 3d, or be with my computer/console and play a good eroge, I would choose latter. 3d is not even a challenge, I have no interest in that anymore.
Yeah keep telling yourself that. Its better that your gene pool dies off.
...
I need this game...
Love Plus is NOT a Eroge!
Jup, its ONLY ecchi.
Not ecchi, not a Eroge, Love Plus is the shit man.
I'm excited for this. Because eventually stuff like this will cause the Japanese from reproducing, and then within a few decades there will be no one left to make this crap.
Finally, we eliminate moe otakus one by one.
A much better way of population control don't you think? Instead of enforcing 1 child per family law somewhere, you get people staying single willingly and happily...
Wow I was just talking about this to a friend of mine.
Not looking forward to this, I could barely keep up with the hundreds of hours on Fate/Stay Night, let alone having to respect an in-game clock system ¬¬
That said, I would like one of those DS stickers, mine looks green and all but that is just SO much better ^^
oooo, and even if I don't like it myself, I can definitely see why some guys like to date artificial girls... I mean, after Fate I could almost say I liked Rin and wanted to murder Sakura even with the knowledge neither exist aside from the sick SICK male fantasy that created them ¬¬
Fuck this makes me wanna buy a DS soo badly, i would love to play this game, after all 2d>3d.
There is a fairly good emulator for it.
Really? Please, tell me, I want to know.
should not want
Not if you have an actual girlfriend. Stupid anon is stupid.
only that you dont have one
epic fail part 2
It's so weird because it's such a shitty and boring game after you plat it for a while. I guess you really need to be off the deep end to like it a lot.
Well at least the character art is lovely...
Heh, just did a post over at J-List on this game. Haven't got into a game like this in a while. It's quite innovative, silly but good fun. The art of getting her to kiss you on a date is at least as difficult as a real woman.
some of those skins are nice
Real girls are overrated, this game ftw =D
Only because you can't get a real girl.
Your mom doesn't count
Practicing for maintaining relationships mayhaps of 3D practical use? Kudos to the game maker at attempting to stave off the declining birth rates.
Their next game maybe called $ Love which will help people solve the hurdle of having a large balance account before they can access the second part of the game.
Want to play. And want those ita ds while i'm at it.
"Others have branded it “social poison,” saying it robs men of the opportunity to date real women ..."
Why would anybody want to date a *real* person? /:)
SRSLY?
So you found the answer, why nobody wants to date you too.
Why you are being a bitch so early in the day Ayu? Wrong Anon this time, retard ;)
Stop ruining the mood Ayu Jochuu. You already voiced your opinion that you hate this game or 2D dating in general.
Damn, people can't even fap peacefully here anymore.
Actually I don't hate it, I have games like that myself. But I don't like it when people say 2D is soooooooooooooo perfect what it isn't in any way.
Well I'd have to agree with Ayu Jochuu. I like sim games as well but when you think 2D girls are equal or better than 3D girls it just starts to get kinda pathetic.
Let the man fap in peace!
then gtfo
But, they're 3D! They only love your money!
No, they don't. They have own money so why should they want yours if you don't offer it them?
Have to agree with Ayu. Either you've had some shitty experiences with women or you just don't know what the hell your talking about.
Depends on what kind of girl you're dating with. If you get a girl who pays her own stuff with their own money (or happy to spend their money for you); you're damn lucky, if you get someone who just wants you to be her sugar daddy; your wallet will suffer anorexia.
Because I am ugly and stupid? yeah, thats what I thought .
This game don't have a story? Lame.....
At first it has. You aim for one of the 3 girls available.
But after finishing the game, the story is your life.
Those itas look fucking awesme
I would love an iPhone version
They don't need anymore otakus in Japan because of their diminishing population. Now China on the other hand could use a couple million otaku since most of them won't have a woman to marry anyway.
you do realise there are still some old fashioned people in china that is so sexist that they kill off female babies because its a shame to their family?
i'm pretty sure the reason is not "shame"
It's a good experience for people who already have girlfriends.
But it would be better if they ditch their real gf for a 2d love!
Actually, the game is no eroge so it is only a "dating" sim witout sexual activity.
Still a win xD I'd buy it xD
"it is only a "dating" sim witout sexual activity"
That's pretty much the sexual life of most men from middle school to college. Women are such a bitches.
At least with hookers you got something for your time/money.
Ayu, you seem awfully nice for this site, run while you can.
She's not that nice, is just pretending. Let her be...
So, it's just like what an actual relationship would be like, minus the diseases. :9
I've got a girlfriend and I'd buy the game to be honest. We don't see each other as much so I'd play it so I wouldn't be led astray by 3D women.
Would be great to play. Although I have the old version of the Nintendo DS. I wonder if it can play this game as well.
Dammit, I'm a straight girl and I want this. Translation doesn't seem likely, huh...
has anyone played this game yet?
I have, it's fun.
Seriously worth my 2 years doing self-study of Japanese. =p
If we go by hollyweird standards, in 'Surrogates' the movie. We just jack into a "perfect" body of choice and go to town without any concern.
By that time, every third world country would of out paced the US, europe and china in baby making combined!
Would we give a fuck?
HA!
<3+
2d=win
3d=win
I LOVE THIS WORLD!
This game is a must have...
Is there an english release by any chance? Just asking btw ok ;P
I need one I need one, Ill learn japanese just for it, it is worth it.
I will be the best boyfriend ever.
Manaka is my girlfriend. Realtime mode FTW!
Men have to settle for roadkill in this day and age. If you dated back in 2006, you would know this.
The thing is, poor men cannot afford to marry, while women seek only rich men. Women can get anything they want simply because they have tits and vag.
If I had a tits and vag, I could post a webcam video on youtube and be instantly famous.
go do a sex change, its the trend now
All right this is my new motive to continue learning kanji!
Games like those are very good, it helps us to understand girls a little better, too bad nowday girls aren't what used to be before. And that is VERY sad.
If they release this thing in other language like english, it would sell over a BILLION !
No, isn't a joke.
a billion rom downloads, more likely..
I'd buy it
I would be fucking happy if I can find a good girl who doesn't mind to do sex cosplay with me.
Nene is love.
No, Manaka is love.
An English release would convince me to upgrade to a DSi.
Wish i had one of those. XP
What is a girl..?
A miserable little pile of secrets!
And a cunt.
Don't forget aids. =/
no, that's you.
The future of Japan is doomed (marriage rate will drop even further) if Konami release a LovePlus Girl's Side (virtual BF)...
Konami is already known to have the history of releasing Tokimeki Memorial Girl's Side (for girls) on NDS and PS2...
I tried to play it but only understood about 30%-50% of what was going on.I will play it again in about 1 to 1 and a half year when my Japanese will be more advanced.
Although i have to admit that it looks like a nice game XD
Ayu Jochuu... *trap senses tingling*
If she's a trap then she's got really pretty implants.
Traps don't need implants. Taking hormones grows breasts naturally, and some traps even reach a natural cup size rivaling their mother and sisters.
I will buy a DS for this when it comes to the US.
SO RONERY....but it feels so good.
*Hums the chorus from 'Eleanor Rigby' and walks away*
Why did this have the "Toggle Visibility of Mature Content" on it..
Love Plus is real, true love. If you deny this, you are a both a communist and a heretic.
Agree!
oookay, is it that difficult to simply let other people enjoy what they are doing without having others to shoot at them?
Do you live in the USA? Sheep need fun too since we give our jobs away. Settle for little to no pay at the jobs that ARE around! Sell our families and some limbs for healthcare.
Real girls are acting normally ugly, greedy for money, acting like mens or whatever...
So there is no need for real girls/womans.
-acting
BRING THIS OVERSEES NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
TAKE THAT SONY, can yer Shitty PSP do this!? LONG LIVE NINTENDO, interesting idea too =D
Ahh the last is a sure sign that "Nene ha ore no Yome!" (Nene is my Wife!)
so much hatred towards real women, when the 1 who gave you birth is a woman as well. not all women are perfect and neither r men. oh well, just cross ur fingers n hope u don't get scarred by jerks or whores. when dat fails, then this game wud come in handy... jus 4 fun tho, its not real....
Love plus is pure evil!
