Just recently, SEGA has updated their site regarding both the Project DIVA game on the PSP and also the Project DIVA Arcade which was announced quite a while back.. Well, to all who don’t know what is Project DIVA, it is a rhythmic game done by both SEGA and Crypton Future Media featuring the stellar cast of Vocaloids like Hatsune Miku, Kagamine Rin&Len and much more.. Well, lets move on to the Project DIVA Arcade first~
Project DIVA Arcade:
Due to the success of the Project DIVA game, SEGA , known for making alot of arcade games these days, decided that making an arcade version would be a great idea.. Well, their dream has finally paid off and with the help of TRIPSHOTs; well-known for animating the “Nebula” 3DPV, they were able to get a final design for the machine itself (below)..
Before I carry on, here is the Promotional Video to the Project DIVA Arcade which was released a day ago.. Enjoy~
Project DIVA Promo Video:
Now, with the Project DIVA Arcade soon to come out by next year, they bound to have some songs to test out.. Well, they do; they asked everyone to submit a song entry, and there were like 100 applicants. After that, they picked out 10 finalists and some of them are “-disruptive diva-”, “片想いサンバ” (Kataomoi Samba) and “ZIGG-ZAGG”..
So as for now, lemme show you the videos to these songs, hope you like them.. XD
“-Disruptive Diva-” – Hatsune Miku:
Project DIVA (PSP):
Now moving on to our next topic at hand, the Project DIVA PSP game itself. As you all might have heard it, SEGA has decided to release a Down-Loadable Content (DLC) titled 「Additional Songs Deluxe Pack Vol.1 – Hatsune Miku: Miku Uta, Okawari (Tentative)」.
What will be featured is 9 new songs to download from the PSN (Playstation Network) store… The Songs and artists that have already been confirmed are:
* 「Uta ni Katachi wa Nai Keredo」 by doriko
* 「Nisoku Hokou」 by DECO*27
* 「Puzzle」 by Kuwagata-P
* 「SPiCa」 by Toku-P
In addition, a mini-game known as 「*Hello, Planet.」 will also be available, the song you hear was originally done by Sasakure-P (Sasakure.UK)… Here is the music video itself~
” *HELLO, PLANET.” – Hatsune Miku:
Here are some of the screenshots from the game itself.. ^^ Moetron mentioned that there would be custom themes for your PSP..
Miku looks very cute in the mini-game~
The DLC will be released by 2010 next year.. The pack itself will be priced at around 1,890 yen or at around SGD$30.. Abit expensive but who knows, it might be a good deal when you get to play the mini-game as well.. Thats all I have for you today.. I will continue to keep you updated on both the Project DIVA, both the current and upcoming sequel, and also on the Project DIVA Arcade..
Take care~
