According to a GAF post, only the novel parts on VLR are fully voiced (maybe there are cutscenes as well?)
The "escape" parts have bleeps and blips, just like in 999. So in those parts I'll be imagining what they sound like in English I guess :D

Um... yup. If you check out videos of the demo (even the Japanese ones that have been there for a while xP) you can see that.
There are 'cutscenes', but they're usually only a few seconds long and don't have anybody saying anything xP

It's actually been known for month, this is nothing new, really... though as Akolto said, it hardly matter anyway, there's very little dialogue during the escape scenes anyway
I really wish my local Amazon would just go and put VLR up for pre-order already. They don't even have a product page for it
Funny how they actually have a page for Kid Icarus Uprising for Wii U, but not for VLR, which has already been announcedd months ago, and was even showcased during the latest Nintendo Direct

Do you think this week's website update will come with both Zero III's profile and Clover's profile, since it's the final one before release?
Also, it seems like Aksys was teasing the promo anime "later this week" a few days ago. They are still localizing the anime, right? Even if... Yeah.
Oh god where are my legs

Not only that, but the last section and many subsections of the media section are still missing as well.

They should already have finished the dubbing of the promo a long time ago.

It'd be cool if they did like the game itself, and actually had an officially subbed version with the original VA.... or I could go and watch some of the fan translated versions out there :p

Oddly my delivery estimate is October 29 (or Monday after release) even though I have 2 day shipping on it due to Amazon Prime (which on preorders means it should arrive the day of release). Even though I pre-ordered it way back in April.
Either the date is off on the estimate or they have a huge number of people on preorder. Or the preorder special edition comes out slightly later for some reason.
I guess I'll see next week.

Yeah, that's what mine says too. But that can't be right.
Especially since there are some people saying theirs is saying it will arrive today.
Amazon probably just borked the release date. Especially since on the game's page it says the release date is September 1st.

Really? The Amazon page says it'll be released on October 24th to me.

I think overall a German version will help VLR to sell better in Germany, because there are quite some people who prefer such story heavy games to be in German.

That's a little hard to quantify. Most of the "technical" or scientific terms they use don't differ a whole lot because they're referring to established concepts that have terms in English (or sometimes they're just using the English term in Japanese.) There are a few game-specific terms and names that we changed for several different reasons, such as: They sound silly in English, they rely on sounds/wordplay that doesn't work in English, they tie into the plot in ways that won't work (in English) unless we change them, etc. The stuff that diverges the most is probably the jokes, which frequently just don't translate at all. There's one, for instance, that revolves around confusing a train pass with a watermelon (yes) that I had to completely re-write because the direct translation was utterly nonsensical. Most of the major divergences are going to be for that reason. Others are minor things like not using names in lines (Japanese writers like to have characters refer to each other by name all the time, but it sounds hella awkward in English), or shuffling the order of information in a set of lines around a bit so it feels better in English.

Anyway, man, I missed all the jokes, it seems ;_; Either because I never saw the actual conversation (cuz of doing things on hard mode?) or because they all went over my head >_>

Ah, Japanese. The way words can be easily confused continues to amuse me, especially when alternate meanings for the same (or similar) pronunciation are so different.
Makes me wonder if they bothered to develop something during WWII to reduce potential confusion over radios, like how the US military uses words for numbers and letters.

The way I understand the manual hard mode only disables the hints you get, when you constantly fail and quit the minigames/puzzles.
E.g. in the demo level on hard you wouldn't get any hints from Phi, when you fail to imput the code, but you would still have the conversation with her about the poster.

I've only been studying Japanese for 2 1/2 years, but I've been studying Mandarin for going on 6 years, so that's kind of helpful. But it's also a little detrimental, because I always mix up the pronunciations of the Kanji and Hanzi.
Edit: BP, maybe you understood the last route a little better than I did, though. Because you're probably better at Japanese than I am. (I kind of just import games to help me learn Japanese, since I don't take as regular of classes for it as I do Mandarin)

Strange, it says 'Koch media' is the publisher, it doesn't make any sense... Oh, and the price seems really low for some reason. Besides, the latest Nintendo Direct had the november release date, I doubt they'd take the decision to have a German localisation afterwards.
Personally, my local Amazon still doesn't have the game up for pre-order, even though the release date is less than a month away. I really hope it won't be in January, as whoever decided this is a Class A m*ron : / (Though I supposed it would help sales a bit, having it translated).
Anyway, just gonna pre-order on Amazon.co.uk just in case, especially since I have zero interest in playing the game entirely in French, and having to wait 2 months for that, no thank you very much kthxbb o_O
That reminds me of the Wii U version of Epic Mickey 2, which apparently got delayed to Spring only in France for no apparent reason. Like, they decided to have full translation (text and voices), even though the other version will also have that. That was the 'WTF Moment of the week, last Friday o_O).

I think it'd make a lot of sense. It would mean that Koch Media bought the exclusive rights for Germany and decided to do a translation of their own. But I don't know how trustworthy amazon.de is. I found three other sellers of the German version and two listed november release dates and one listed the same date as amazon.de.

But yeah, even though I don't care about reviews at all, I just can't stand those embargos. At all.
That's an absolutely despicable practice in my opinion, especially when it goes right until a few days before release.
It looks so much like the publisher is scared about people suddenly cancelling pre-ordere all of a sudden. That, or they're ashamed of the game they're publishing, which doesn't make any sense to me.
If that was true, I'd be quite disappointed by Aksys if they really went with an embargo on reviews. I'd expect better for them
Especially since the game has already been released in Japan, and reviews readily available for someone actually interested in them.

I haven't played the game, but it's probably just a reference to SUICA, the IC-card of JR East (Tokyo amongst others). With SUICA also being a pun on the Japanese word for watermelon (suika). IIRC, the logo of SUICA is also designed after a watermelon.
