In the Japanese version of today's Nintendo Direct.

Yes, this was important enough to make a separate topic about rather than posting it in another Direct topic.

Why? Because, without having even seen any gameplay, I can tell you that this will be GotY. Not Zelda, not Nier, not Persona 5, etc. Girl's Mode 4.

I wish it was on the Switch, but maybe we will see an enhanced version of this ported down the line. I'd buy both.

So it looks like like it's being called Styling Star in Europe where it has a release date of November 24th.

No word on a State side release yet. I hope it doesn't take them nearly a year to bring it over like it did last time.

I also hope you can be some sort of idol in the game, hence the title.

Do you people not understand the magnitude of this announcement?

It is at least an 8.7.

I knew PotD had no taste in games, but this is just insulting to my sensibilities. I hope all of you are ashamed of your selves.

I hope you're ashamed for making me watch that. What does this mean? What am I supposed to be thinking about a game called Girl's Mode 4 after watching that trailer / demo? I know Japanese people are good at coming up with stuff that isn't easily understood, but what kind of stuff am I supposed to be thinking after watching that preview thing?

Nanda kore wa?

But no seriously I am just wondering what the game is about.

Well in the States the series is called Style Savvy, and in Europe, Nintendo Presents: New Style Boutique. In each game you become the owner of a clothing store where you coordinate outfits for customers based on their requests and use the profits to improve your shop, buy new clothes, or do personal things like go to the hair stylist/buy furniture for your apartment. There are also side activities like fashion contests/modeling and in the latest game working at the hair/make up salon yourself in addition to running the boutique.

They are fun and highly polished games, as Nintendo helps make them (there is even a trophy and song remix for the series in Smash Bros. 4), and the main devs aren't bad either with games like WWF: No Mercy and Def Jam: Fight for NY under their belt. Between all of them I've probably sunk 600 hours + trying to collect the 20,000 odd different clothing items and other accessories.

I'm not being ironic in the least when I praise the games, but unfortunately they do pretty poorly in the States, so I guess not many people have heard them.
