Sony must've been working behind the scenes for years because Idolm@ster has been blocked from localization for years. That said, soccer managers have also been blocked from PS4 in America.

someone say IDOLM@STER?
Mason Davis
I assume Love Live, since it's the same shit but newer.
Nicholas Torres
>Idolm@ster has been blocked from localization for years
It hasn't been blocked; it's just Bamco being Bamco.
Reminder that they localized an iOS spinoff and charged $50 for it then wondered why no one bought it. They concluded there was no market for Im@s after that outside of the Im@s PSVR tech demo they localized.
Jeremiah Ward
Love live.

Best idol game and best idol group
Love live, Bandori, CG, all are shit compared to the OGs.
Liam Ramirez
It's still alive, they just expanded the IP into the mobile game market.
The reason they slowed down on the 765Pro console games is because each new rendition has been for better or worse the same shit.
Also doesn't help that after that there's not much else left to explore with 765Pro when you're retelling the same story over and over.
I'd expect them to make a brand new game when the PS5 releases.
Charles Brown
I thought it was 3 and each one was $50?
Fucking stupid, man.
Nicholas Green
Cinderella Girls, and Bamco being retarded as usual.
I still miss the OG girls
Easton Cox
They try push same shit as they do in japan, Otakus are dumb to pay premium for some shit but not ironic weebs here.
Console games also having DLCs up to the ass don't help in shit too.
Kayden Turner
I hate to admit it, but Love Live, even though OG iM@S is a million times better in every way.

Bentley Jackson
When was the last release that wasn't a mobage?
Daniel Bennett
Cinderella Girls is the DmC of Idolmaster.
ML and Shinymasu are good and returning it to its former glory

>he thinks im@s is only a mobage
Pathetic.
Leo Cooper
What do you mean? They're still using old idols and just pumped out new ones, and Berserk is still getting delayed.
Henry Harris
They needed to include the new idols with the old ones like in the mobile game. Just improving graphics with the same old songs is hard to sell when you're Scamco trying to rake in hundreds per customer. But that's what you get with Scamco I guess.
Alexander James
This is true, though CG has some good things like Anzu and Sachiko. Seriously I couldn't enjoy much of it though.
Noah Torres
Reminder to ignore ignorant ironic-weeb love live zoomers.
Dominic Stewart
Its funny how LL exploded in popularity and overshadowed iM@S when it came out but then LL does a sequel with a new group, prompting its cancerous fanbase to go apeshit and kill itself with the worst kinds of idolfags
Aaron Martinez
Imagine the smell.
Owen Russell
How old is this. Tiger&Bunny was quite a bit ago and I don't think it gets many doujins now.
Brody Price
It's still growing. New franchise with new girls. Love Live is dying because of contract limits. They all moved to Bandori.
Aaron Wright
Comiket 95 was 4 months ago. Also die fujoshit.
Anthony Peterson
Wait what, what happened? This sounds nonsensical.
Charles Cooper
Gacha.
Why spend all that money making a real iM@S game and make shekels when you can spend a fraction of the cost, and make 100x the shekels?
Also staff changes at Scamco in terms of people responsible for the franchise. It's no coincidence that all we've gotten is rhythm kusoge after the one guy stopped being in charge of iM@S.

Who's the fucking cunt over at BAMCO that thought charging PSP ports on iPhones for 50$ was a good way to test the waters for idoru games?

Caleb Anderson
No prequel OG anime.
No ML anime.
Constant shilling of the gimmicky CG.
Getting into iM@S can be a bit overwhelming at times.
That's what "killed" it.
Brandon Johnson
Both series and the movie were fucking terrible though.
The less they make of those turbo-flanderizations, the better.
Kayden Cox
The OG series was peak idol anime, although the movie could have done without the the weight gain drama.
>The less they make of those turbo-flanderizations, the better.
Fine, if "better" means the franchise continuing on its steady decline.
Daniel Evans
What's wrong with the series? Also what was the mindset behind the movie. Was it done by some non-related company that were allowed to use the idols?
Andrew Rivera
>Tiger&Bunny was quite a bit ago and I don't think it gets many doujins now.
Start expecting a lot more.

Christian Nelson
Pretty much everyone acts incredibly out of character for cheap drama, on top of rehashing the incredibly shit drama in 2 except somehow even worse.
There were a couple of good episodes, but those were few and far between.
Tyler Martinez
It was never alive in the West. It also didn't appeal to the LGBT community like Love Live did, which is a good thing.
Jose Morgan
So who is best SideM and why is it Shiki?
Jackson Allen
The mobage.

Nothing See: Im@s is more popular than ever, problem is, the new gachapon fad that infest japan right now, we get a gorilion of girls but none of them have depth or effort in them unlike in the old times, instead the nu Im@s fans want more girls to collect which every Idol have her own gimmick but nothing more.
Dylan White
Fate is truly cancer
Levi Baker
SideM > OG > CG
If we talk about anime.
Matthew Rodriguez
When are we getting the ML anime
Wyatt Cook
Why bother making anime when the CDs, merchandise, and gacha all make good money as is? Trying to focus on only certain MLs will also feel way worse than focusing on ~15 CGs did since they have much more relatively equal focus.
Aaron Ward
I prefer Love Live personally and I'm not a flaming fag like the majority of the fanbase.
Though Aqours is fucking terrible and Love Live as a series should have died after Muse ended.
Tyler Allen

Video killed the idolmaster
Christopher Harris
Even when I preferred Love Live to idolm@ster I didn't ever believe that im@s was some poverty idol series. Crazy how many western fans actually believe Love Live is bigger than it actually is.
Jonathan Moore
Platinum Stars was shit
But it isn't a dead series yet

OG VAs getting old
Mobage for newer idols
Localization went full retard in price (Something says Japan got involved)
Da-don.
Christian Lopez
>OG VAs getting old
Carter Flores
The VAs getting old is inevitable, but I wish whatever their final full game would actually be another real management game and not just a generic rhythm game.
Kayden Taylor
cinderela girls was a big fat mistake
Joshua Hill
What's age got to do with it? Asami Imai is now making music and still VA'ing. Did they all get married or lose their voice or something?
Lincoln Bailey
Please elaborate

Angel Myers
I never played one but I immediately recognize Iori Minase due to all the porn I see on sadpanda and nhentai.
Also, I heard there's one with milfs. That might be the one I'm insterested in. Whats the game's name?
Carter Thompson
>Home video
Anime? Which anime was this? I haven't kept up with it.
Brandon Murphy
A big draw for the franchise is the live concerts tours complete with stereotypical idol dance routines.
A fair portion of the 765 VAs are also married, and have young children too.
Eli Hughes
Some call it Aqours, the Slayer of Sales.
Brayden Collins
What do you think about Rin 2.0?
Adam Powell
Hiori is not Rin 2.0. She's more like Chihaya 2.0. She's an awkward dork.
Aiden Perez
But every main blue is another addition in the Chihaya Series I.D.O.L.S.
