I enjoyed the Japanese demos of Mirai 1 and 2 so i'll probably grab this. Hopefully it ends up getting a retail release but I wont be complaining if it ends up being digital only aslong as the price is fair.

The JP source I referenced in my post about it just says it's a localized version of "Hatsune Miku: Project Mirai."

(Edit: Dengeki says its a localization of the Hatsune Miku Project Mirai series.)

But I'm pretty sure it's a localized version of the second game.

Just look at the logos. Remix is pretty much an exact copy of Mirai 2's logo:

Well, they'd have no reason to localise just the first one, and the Remix is there just to say it's not the 1st one (and they couldn't really call it Project Mirai 2 when the first one didn't out in the West).

It's a bit like Senran Kagura Burst, in a way. Wonder what the new stuff is... probably just a couple new songs and modules.

How is the challenge level compared to Project Diva f?

Easy enough that you might never see a "failed" screen. You could perfect a 6-star song (max is 8, with one or two exceptions) the first time you play it. Button mode is a bit harder since it can use all 4 buttons with some d-pad combinations while touch only uses 3 and no combinations, but still nothing like PDf on extreme. Also, timing isn't nearly as strict.

It's clearly targeted to younger audiences, but fun nonetheless. It's another earworm collection minus some of the frustration from PDf gameplay, so I ended up liking it a bit more.

UGH always Miku and never Yakuza! Sega is really the worst.

I fucking love Miku, and imported Mirai 2. Mirai series < Diva series tho.

Meh. Kinda takes the hype out of this for me. I wasn't expecting PDf style craziness, but I don't want to pay for a non-challenge.

FUCK YES!!!!!

I literally JUST wanted to make a thread about how the Project Mirai series needs to come over to the west because of it's EBA-like gameplay.

Now that we get this I am happy beyond believe.
Fuck yes!

EDIT: Everybody saying that this is actually Mirai 2:
Maybe it's some kind of "Append" version, like they did with Project Diva 2 on PSP?
Same base game but more songs and stuff.

Probably a better indication of pricing would be that the Vita version of Project Diva f came out for $30 (though it was digital only, and had a $10 DLC song pack available).

Uh oh... Looking at those gifs, I'll be terrible at the game. Being used to the 360 button layout, I ALWAYS press the wrong button on the Wii U or 3DS when prompted on screen, since A and B, and X and Y are switched.
Though, maybe this is just the thing I need to train my brain to tell the difference.

Nice, so it's Mirai 2 plus extra content.

I bet it's digital only though. I'd pay $30.

Project Mirai 2 is definitely a fair amount easier than Project Diva F, though to be honest, that really just means that I saw the "Failed" screen on the hardest songs on Extreme in PDF compared to never seeing it at all in PM2. I actually ended up liking the difficulty balance in PM2 more, though, because getting Perfect/All SP in Project Mirai 2 felt like a much more attainable and less frustrating goal (albeit with sufficient challenge, there's still a good number that are out of reach) than getting Perfects in Project Diva F. But, I mean, if you want a game with songs that will totally kick your ass like the hardest stuff in PDF, you won't find it here.

Wow, if people buy the games, Sega will continue to localize them. Something Yakuza fans should have realized!

15 years of Dreamcast and Xbox controllers are probably going to make this game unplayable to me though. I know it's wishful thinking, but if they could even include the option to turn the buttons into arrows or something that would make sense to someone used to Xbox controllers, that would be great.

This is a pleasant surprise. I didn't expect this to be localized. I'm curious to see what the extras added in are going to be.
