A teaser site for "next39" appeared from SOJ.

"Apparently" is something related with a release coming next month (-.o)

Quick like a ninja.

Basically if you divide what they have its obviously 1, / <== means Divide. This imo will be the Yakuza Studio game they are working on that we wrote about before, that won't be related to Yakuza. They stated before that they hired more people, currently have 200 workers under them.

Here is the article our cutie forum goer and tight butt extraordinaire Aki-At wrote about that Yakuza Studio game tease:

I heard its Miku

[George]

Yeah its Miku


Sigh...

39 means MIKU in Japanese, the timer on the site ends minutes before Hatsune Miku's birthday and the color strands in the teaser = each Cryptonloid.

So... yeah a Hatsune Miku game. More SEGA Japan licensed games.

SWEET

[Berto]

Now I don't know whether to laugh or cry...

[George]

Sorry this is now the future. This is what SEGA of Japan now considers 'their fans'. Phantasy Star Online 2? LOL. Yakuza 5? After years of asking for it they needed Sony to bring it over.

No offense, I'm sure Hatsune Miku games are great for the people that like them. Should probably not place the blame on them doing more of those, because if SEGA never did a Hatsune Miku games it wouldn't' change their stand on PSO2 most likely.

[Radrappy]

oh


BOY

[Aki-at]

Oh nice, hopefully it's coming to the Playstation 4. Would love it if they attempted a full scale Miku game with the Persona Dancing Through the Night art direction, thought it suited her well.

You had me really interested until i read that it was another Miku game... The fuck?!

[Bit,]

Hopefully this is being worked by SEGA themselves and is not associated with Yakuza Development Team's game that was announced. I also hope there will be multiple game announcements that will also be revealed at TGS because I don't really see the point for going and just showing off One or Two Games, especially after Haruki Satomi said that they would want to win back fan's support.


After all, SEGA does seem to make most if not all the liscened Hatsune Miku game's themselves.

[Nirmugen]

Why many of you are worrying about an anual series' new release?!

Chill out for a moment.

[Bit,]

Wait a second, how do we even know this game is coming to the west on release?. Almost None of Hatsune Miku's Games have been released to the West at the same time as Japan's release date. They usually take year's to come prior after Japan's release date, my point being Hatsune Miku is always released first in Japan then hopefully month's or year's later in the West. So with this information and SEGA having a known record for developing those game's themselves, I am confident to say that this has nothing to do with Yakuza's Development Studio's game and is probably not the game Haruki Satomi was talking about.


Also note that the teaser was mainly focused to the Japanese Fanbase with no other word from outside of the Japanese SEGA Twitter.

[TimmiT]

It really is disappointing that SEGA is continuing one of their best current series of games.

[George]

Hey if you like Hatsune Miku, that's great. Their fine rhythm games but you gotta understand why fans of a company won't be thrilled about this being the only thing coming west?

But that would mean you'd have to actually like SEGA games.

I'm pretty sure we would have gotten the same complain in the Dreamcast era of Phantasy Star Online stayed in Japan and only Space Channel 5 was brought over...
