J-List and JAST USA have enjoyed helping create the modern visual novel industry, and nothing brings a smile to our face like selling a physical copy of an awesome game to a fan at a convention. However, it’s a digital world we live in, and there comes a time when physical games have to fade out. As JAST USA’s digital sales and Steam sales increase, the sad reality is that some visual novels have to go out of print in physical form. So fans of physical visual novels should probably Sonicomi: Communication with Sonico or YOU and ME and HER: a love story (aka Totono) quickly!
Super Sonico has been a great title for JAST USA, and the support by fans was so great, we sold more copies internationally than inside Japan, which made Nitroplus very happy.
This is the limited edition of Super Sonico, which is about to sell out in San Diego. We currently have fewer than 30 copies. The set includes the game, Steam download code and a cool acrylic figure of Sonico for your desk! One of the best limited visual novels published!
Sonicomi is an “idol management” game in which you become Sonico’s photographer and manage her schedule, outfits, and career, helping her become the top idol in Japan, or something else…there are 18 different endings to explore, including some where she ends up marrying you! The visuals are great, as we went out of our way to license the PS3 CG models of Sonico to port back to the English game for Windows, making the English version better than the Japanese original.
The best part of the Sonico game is the photography segments, where you have to take the best photos of Sonico as you can, to help her career move forward.
You can even take upskirt photos if you want! But Sonico won’t like it, and this can lead to one of the “dark” endings…
You can order Sonicomi: Communication with Sonico via instant download from JAST USA, but if you want one of the last physical copies, you’d better hurry. Fans of physical visual novels should not delay!
Another game we’ve loved selling has been YOU and ME and HER, aka Totono, which has been a long-awaited game for many years. It’s by the same artist as Sonico, Tsuji Santa, and our version is 100% uncensored, naturally.
In Totono, you play Shinichi, a normal visual novel main character with a childhood friend named Miyuki who he’s drifted apart from in recent years. One day he meets an odd girl named Aoi, who seems to think she’s a character in a visual novel, or something.
Miyuki is a great character whose route you will definitely enjoy.
And you’ll undoubtedly love Aoi’s route, which breaks the fourth wall in ways no game before had done before. Definitely an experience every lover of visual novels should have!
While you can buy YOU and ME and HER via instant download from JAST USA, we’re down to 100 copies of the limited edition at J-List, which comes with an acrylic panel of either Miyuki or Aoi, your choice.
If you’re a fan of physical visual novels, hurry! Once these titles are gone the games will be digital sales only!
Great news! The super large-sized oppai mousepad from Senran Kagura are once again up for preorder, for a limited time. Which character do you want to have on your desk, in all her glorious full-sized oppai glory? Browse our mousepad now!
