So remember back when I was playing through Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors, and I pretty much didn't want the game to end, despite running into numerous bad endings and just wondering where I was going wrong? I can't remember if I ever did say that I finished that game. The way that the story finally crystallized was a real mind-bender, but it works on so many levels that it really needs to be played to fully understood. As well, they left the game open with a few unanswered questions.
I won't go into any spoilers about the first game due to its incredible storyline (and multiple twisting plotlines) - unless people want to in the comments.
In the past few months, the sequel to 999, titled Good People Die in Japan, with videos, demos, and even a short OVA, all used to hype the game. Finally, it was just announced yesterday that Good People Die will be released in North America under the name Zero Escape: Virtue's Last Reward. Seeing that they're rebranding the series, I wonder if this means 999 will be seeing a re-release to coincide with the sequel.
I guess this means that I'll just have to get a 3DS now. (or at least the game, until I finally succumb to "VLR" and have to buy the system to play it.)
While I'm talking about games and their sequels, I find it interesting to note that Aksys Games was able to release the sequel of 999 (a game which I would think to be rather niche), while sadly, XSEED's release of Retro Game Master has a sequel but hasn't seen the light of day in the States. Sad. :(
