I think that the 3d graphics won't help the game and are an unnecessary luxury.

@grimTales1 True, however, if you consider hexadecimal and extend it to the letter K = 20, the digital root of 20 is 2, corresponding to Snake. While hexadecimal doesn't use K, it was used in the Librascope LGP-30 which was an early representation of the current hexadecimal system. Of course, that's a bit of a stretch.
It may also be the robot's controller is acting as the role of a receiver in a separate facility, meaning the robot is a shell. It is the year ~2030'ish, after all.
All I can say is, please come to Europe. I know the Vita is region free, but IMO it seems a pain having to get a Vita for just 1 game, and Aksys dont have a European arm so won't publish for the UK. Someone else has to... could they just use Aksys' script/translation and everything?

I'd be more excited about this if they didn't drop the ball on the ending to 999 so thoroughly. After several straight hours of powering through to the end I was completely unimpressed with the true ending.
@CheesyGranola I personally think they did get Snake. I'm just theorizing, but K might be Snake. He emerges from the same cell as Clover. He protected Clover from whatever happened in the cell. In the anime promo, K playfully shuts his robotic eyes in a similar fashion, as Snake would. Then in the Clover flash mini-game, a picture of K pops up hiding Clover's exposed breasts while K looks embarrassed.
Of course, maybe this is what the developers want me to think.
I will so iport this if you can play US 3DS games on a PAL one from Germany! I played 999 just now and it was really thrilling and exciting! Great game! (-^.=.^-)
I wonder if Junpei or Akane will make a cameo here. Since Alice and CLover are in it, it looks likely. I dodn't like the way 999 ended, leaving Akene and Junpei apart, and a "Junpei will search for Akene for the rest of his life" won't cut it.
Holy crap Morphogenic fields between humans was Physics bending enough (Telepathic communications across space and universes) but now they are adding Schrödinger's cat as well and "I will be You, You will be Me" which ties into Schrödinger's theories... and the Chinese Room theories and the Rules of Robotics, Atom Splitting, Prisoner's Dilemma, and Carbuncle of the Sun the Green Lion. I seriously fear for the unlearned... and the Translators... Should their be any.
I just wonder wtf is Alice doing there a long with how much time has passed since the first game..clover seems to have matured and took style advise from Yoko of Gurren Lagann.
Why wouldnt there be a True Ending? How would we know which one is "right"? Maybe not all of them are full endings like 999 had. Not long now til its out in Japan, so I live in hope of localisation (and the game being made Region Free). I'm not sure I want to buy one console (the Vita) JUST for this game.
@gamereviewsss I've been wondering that, I wonder if its because they just havent started talking to anyone yet and want to wait til its out in Japan first? As far as I can see, it would be pure madness NOT to localise this, considering how well 999 did in the West compared to Japan. They know the demand is there, the split of Westerners-Japanese looking at the GPD website is something like 70-30!
The 2D characters looked more realistic. Even so, I'm crazy enough for the first game to buy a whole new handheld and get this game when it comes out!
GUYS Aksys Games HAS NO PLANS TO LOCALIZE THIS GAME TO AMERICA!!!!!!! this is not a joke! this is a real claim from an employee! THUMS ME UP SO PEOPLE CAN SEE AND TRY NO GET THE GAME HERE!!
I absolutely enjoyed every bit of 9 hours, 9 doors, 9 persons. What captivated me was mostly it's dark, witty, mature setting that it took place in. I had always yearned to know more about the characters and seemed to have a connection as to what they were going through, trying to find the truth. Hopefully they don't water down the language or make puzzles easier for the sake of trying to get wider audience, because it would totally ruin this next game, which is definately on my wish list :).
My first reaction to the 3D sprites was definitely negative. They seem sort of oddly rounded, or something... but I'm definitely impressed by the snippets of animation here!
not really digging the look of the game, but hopefully the plot and gameplay will be at least as good. goddamn the devs are mean to clover though, this is her third nonary game!
@jdemonp It comes out for the PS Vita as well. You can buy the vita and still play the game. I'd still suggest getting the 3DS as good games will be coming out later, but they don't come out quite yet. So I'd wait on the 3DS, and buy the vita first, and if your good at saving money, you'll have enough money to buy the 3DS when all the good games come out for it.
Ah hell yeah, I cant wait to ham it up again with a set of all new characters. I'm to play this as a nocturnal drone again, relapsing in psychological security, as I seize from the terror of mid-day shadows. And if there was one thing that is certain, I'm going to bone up my first playthrough. And then I'm gonna have skim through all that juicy text until volition reemerges in its gameplay! YES
I effin love that there was enough support for this to be made!
@BeastOfTheEast07 On my first playthrough of the original 999, I got the coffin ending. I guess I'm just lucky, but when it said "to be continued..." I was thinking WTF is this ending. I then looked it up, and found out I had to do the safe ending. I did that, and redid the true ending. I didn't get a bad ending at all.
@TheMegasword123 I did the same, except I didn't look it up. I thought I did something wrong, until I got the other 4 endings and tried the coffin one a second time.
This can't live up tot he last one. :( and the 3D was a mistake. they really should have kept to animation. : / They won't be bale to make the characters as expressive :(
They need a freaking voice-over for the opening of this in Japanese. Especially in Japanese. How those people make their voice sound awesome, I don't know.
Most anticipated game of 2012 for me.. PL vs AA looks good, but this is going to be incredible. Had to import 999 from the States, not even sold in the UK, travesty... :/
To be honest, I don't know if the "real" Zero will be the Zero from the first game or not.. in a way it could be a let down if it is. We don't know who it will be.
@grimTales1 Most probably won't be the same person. Zero already accomplished what he intended to do in the first game. If Zero III really turns out to be the same as the previous game, then he must be freaking bored. -_-
@WREQUIEM No, to answer your questions the robot is a character, he was supposidly knocked out like all the rest, and when he awoke he was in the suit. Zero is the original zero from the first game, not sure if its akane or the one that set it up the first time, The characters of this game are all counter parts of the first, except for clover. Sigma is the protagonist and is a college student just like junpei from the first game, so i can only infer he has the number 5 bracelet.
0:22 I actually took this from a comment in Japanese but it's important to note that it isn't written with kanji so it could be read as "They should all die instead" OR "They should all trust in each other instead".
As continuation to my other comment, the points are given by the following rules:
If both participants choose "cooperate", both get 2 points.
If both participants choose "betray", points remain unchanged.
If one chooses to "betray" and the other chooses "cooperate", the betrayed person loses 2 points and the betrayer gets 3 points.
Your partner won't know what you chose (I assume there'll be a "checkpoint" after every few rooms to check the current amount of points?). Sounds interesting to me.
@Dialgadude Too bad it seems like digital roots are not at play in here, since the "Ambidex" version supposedly has the participants wear bracelets, which shows the number of points the wearer has. The goal is to get 9 or more points. If your points end up being zero or less, you die. Each participant starts with 3 points (my guess from the promo anime trailer).
You explore places in pairs, and you can choose to betray one another. You're given points depending on what both of you choose.
@Dialgadude as far as we know, the Ambidex version works in an entirely different way than the original version of the Nonary Game. The players do not have only a number through all the game, but they can obtain or lose points. If they manage to gain 9 points, they can escape, if they reach 0 points... well, they will go BOOM. So, everyone can be a 9, this time (if they don't kill each other, obviously).
@KyrieFortune Keep in mind that I read about the characters and made an assumption before I read about the game's mechanics. If this game followed the previous game similarly, I'd have no doubt Sigma would have the 9th bracelet.
But that's not the case since this game follows different rules.
@zHILLP it most likely will get a north american release someday seeing that its "prequel" or just similiar games 999 (9 Hours 9 Persons 9 Doors) did :P btw if you have a DS,DSi, or 3DS that is a must have game :D
yeah cant wait for it *o* the first one was just epic... the 2d design was really pretty too. and the puzzles and dialogs were just epic, it made me think suspicious to some of them xD hope this will have about 9 or 10 endings (zero)...
I loved the first one, kind of wish they kept the 2d art, but you can tell with the 3d, this is going to be major gory. Hope its just as confusing as 999
@teacuppu If you count the speculated Lord Gordain one and not the Egyptian ones, This is actually the 4th Nonary game. If you think of Zero III as the 3rd and True Zero as the 4th that makes her [Zero IV]! [4] Leaved clover, [4] Bracelet.... Clover=4/ 4=clover/4=IV thereof [4] = [0] Clover = Zero....
@Hikarianotsuki Heh. I had a feeling that Junpei was a part of it. 2 people in it look like Akane a BIT but the other guy looks like Junpei ALOT. Man I can't wait for this game to come out.
my only concern is what the character's personalities would be like. The ones in 999 were so believeable and almost real to an extent that i was sucked in, i felt like I was Junpei (it helped that i had my hair cut kinda like his and I during grade school my best friend was a girl)
@CyricZ I think the same Zero as not much people do such a thing. As there are just some many people who let people play psychopathic death games where the survivors may have some psychological problems picked up on the way on survival.
Does anyone else love this music? I love the range from pretty melodies to dank horror beats. Brings back fond memories of the original and gets me pumped as shit to play this.
I think that the 3d graphics won't help the game and are an unnecessary luxury. I haven't seen the whole game yet so I can't judge properly, but it seems to me that 2d graphics was the way to go. 3d doesn't look so real and it may detract from the atmosphere of the game in the same way as the 2d graphics enhanced the atmosphere of its predecessor(which is the best game I've ever played).

If one chooses to "betray" and the other chooses "cooperate", the betrayed person loses 2 points and the betrayer gets 3 points.
Your partner won't know what you chose (I assume there'll be a "checkpoint" after every few rooms to check the current amount of points?). Sounds interesting to me.

The main character's name is Sigma. Sigma is the eighteenth letter in the Greek Alphabet.
18
1+8=9
I think his code number is 9, meaning the player can go into any door with a group of people without changing their digital root.
Dialgadude 3 months ago 5
@Dialgadude Too bad it seems like digital roots are not at play in here, since the "Ambidex" version supposedly has the participants wear bracelets, which shows the number of points the wearer has. The goal is to get 9 or more points. If your points end up being zero or less, you die. Each participant starts with 3 points (my guess from the promo anime trailer).
You explore places in pairs, and you can choose to betray one another. You're given points depending on what both of you choose.

@MrPoniator They could still find a way to incorporate digital roots into the puzzles :P
I sincerely hope digital roots make a comeback somehow, since I have been obsessed with them since 999...
I swear, if this doesn't come state-side, I will learn Japanese and import this, and brute-force hack my 3DS to allow region-free, or get a Vita.

@Dialgadude as far as we know, the Ambidex version works in an entirely different way than the original version of the Nonary Game. The players do not have only a number through all the game, but they can obtain or lose points. If they manage to gain 9 points, they can escape, if they reach 0 points... well, they will go BOOM. So, everyone can be a 9, this time (if they don't kill each other, obviously).

@KyrieFortune and so this story will be even more confusing.. ugh... but at least when you understand everything, you enjoy the game the most.
Cherryripe25 2 months ago
@KyrieFortune Keep in mind that I read about the characters and made an assumption before I read about the game's mechanics. If this game followed the previous game similarly, I'd have no doubt Sigma would have the 9th bracelet.
But that's not the case since this game follows different rules.

If this gets a North American release I seriously will consider getting a 3DS or Vita O_O,

@zHILLP it most likely will get a north american release someday seeing that its "prequel" or just similiar games 999 (9 Hours 9 Persons 9 Doors) did :P btw if you have a DS,DSi, or 3DS that is a must have game :D

I'm on the fence about the 3D art style. But from what I can see in 0:44 it looks like it'll allow for some more suspenseful scenes and events.

Hikarianotsuki 3 months ago
@Hikarianotsuki
I think Clover is Zero.. or at least have some connection to Zero.
It's pretty suspicious for her to be in nonary game a 3rd time isn't it. =w=
Something I found out recently: the robot (K) who resembles Seven... also has amnesia, just like Seven did in the first game. Also suspicious!
teacuppu 3 months ago
@teacuppu If you count the speculated Lord Gordain one and not the Egyptian ones, This is actually the 4th Nonary game. If you think of Zero III as the 3rd and True Zero as the 4th that makes her [Zero IV]! [4] Leaved clover, [4] Bracelet.... Clover=4/ 4=clover/4=IV thereof [4] = [0] Clover = Zero....
Hikarianotsuki 3 months ago
@Hikarianotsuki
It's also been confirmed that "[Zero III] gets its instructions from "the true Zero", who appears to be one of the 9 players."
If the True Zero is one of the 9 players, we know it isn't Junpei.
It has to be Clover. Seriously.
teacuppu 3 months ago
@Hikarianotsuki :O!
And remember Clover also surmised Zero was one of the group in 999. And she was right.
Does she know something we don't?
grimTales1 3 months ago
@Hikarianotsuki Heh. I had a feeling that Junpei was a part of it. 2 people in it look like Akane a BIT but the other guy looks like Junpei ALOT. Man I can't wait for this game to come out.
gavin80001 3 months ago
my only concern is what the character's personalities would be like. The ones in 999 were so believeable and almost real to an extent that i was sucked in, i felt like I was Junpei (it helped that i had my hair cut kinda like his and I during grade school my best friend was a girl)

@CyricZ I think the same Zero as not much people do such a thing. As there are just some many people who let people play psychopathic death games where the survivors may have some psychological problems picked up on the way on survival.
