Pier Solar: Official Thread

[nathanallan]

um...

I couldn't resist.

[NeoVamp]

Time for some positive messages!

I can't wait till i get my hands on this, I'm totally in the mood for a good rpg right now.

[Doktor D]

Really looking forward to this. Have been for some time now, but it looks like it's finally getting reeaaal close to release.

At this point, I keep going to the Pier Solar news page hoping to see "Pier Solar has been shipped!" as the headline!

To all you WaterMelon folks reading this (by which I mean Zebbe), good luck with the bug crackdown and can't wait to see what you've got in store

Pier Solar Forever

[o1s1n]

I really can't wait for this. Seems like an aeon ago when I placed my order. Think it was two years last month?

Even had a new LCD put in my Nomad so I can read the small text

[Zebbe]

Thanks for the support guys. Good news coming later this month. Here is a brief report of the Retro Gathering visit:

I'm laughing at the thought that people still might believe that this game is never coming out, based on some of the replies in this thread.

You guys need to chill the fuck out. I'm pretty sure there was a damned good reason why the Japanese language was dropped. Stay tuned because this will probably be revealed soon, if not some time after the game releases. I'm sure it might have to do with quality reasons, maybe not having proper manpower/time to perfect the translation? I'm only speculating here. Things like that happen with projects all the time, even mainstream game companies. An example would be Modern Warfare 2, when they dropped dedicated Server support for the PC only a month before release. Decisions like that happen all the time.

I think some of you people who are bitching about why this game is taking a long ass while to be released, are simply grasping at straws at this point. I understand a while back when not much news was coming out, for people to be anxious about it, but we are in full beta testing swing (if not practically done by now), shipping addresses confirmations emails have already been sent, and if you follow their twitter messages (watermelongames) you get even more updates like news of their prototype last month.

Just keep holding on, and stop acting like children. If you are a child, no insult meant.

[Bramsworth]

Actually I already posted on the Pier Solar board why JP was dropped(since it was my responsibility after all). Look here:

It's been over a week and no new complaints in this thread so I don't think anymore posts telling others that they complain too much are necessary. Heck, that's how complaints start all over again mostly isn't it?

[NeoVamp]

Yeah that was a really stupid move of Xonticus, things were finally back to a
positive attitude in this thread and he starts talking about old shit again.

In some cultures thats considered trolling Xonticus!

[Zebbe]

Yeah, don't wake the trolls, they are so pretty when they are asleep .

[NeoVamp]

I have a couple questions, so i hope you don't mind answering them.

1 - from where is the game being shipped? USA? or Europe?

2 - If its from the USA then can the post package be made inconspicuous? as in no big "WATERMELON GAMES INC - AWESOME NEW GAME INSIDE" labels?
Because my wallet is still hurting from the import fine they hit me with after i bought that Snes PowerPak flashcart.

[Zebbe]

1. China .

2. I don't know how the packaging will look like. I can try to look it up tomorrow.

[Zebbe]

OK, there will be nothing on the package, just plain Kraft stuff. So you can hopefully be safe, there is no special envelope.

[Dark Sol]

Hey, i demand special envelope.. and a candy!
Actually i want game to be shipped in a STURDY BOX. Envelopes are shit. Genesis case can be broken easily.
