eventually it's a simple card game for ios/android based on Japanese prefectures, www.konami-digital-entertainment.co.jp/en/news/release/2013/0214/now i've visited the Japanese Gree website but the game doesn't seem to be up even if it says that the game was released this Thursday.. product.gree.net/jp/ja/maybe I'm doing something wrong?it says you need to install/register to GREE first and maybe download it through that system instead but since there your world position is not optional it will be nearly impossible to download this Japanese game also Gree is now releasing most of their games to the US too so maybe we could see a US version of the game available soon(but based on the prefecture nature of the game i guess downloading the JP version is probably your only choice)

Guess it's a good thing the games are so different, so I don't have to commit time to this new game

Found a scan of the new character. Too bad it's a phone/card game, but it's good that there's something new for the series I suppose.

yeah most of the "games" created for iphone/ipad/etc are terrible and their only purpose is to make you spend real money in ridiculously silly in-app purchases of something that they hardly spend any time or any real skills creating///O__O; so this "loveplus collection" is a card-trading game, again ughh but it might be something worth it since it's based on our beloved characters also it seems that the girls will "React" but from what wwe can see they will not be 3D in this installation but 2D and entirely based on minotaro's artwork.. maybe/possibly the new style of what is called "LIVE2D" that konami also used for Tokimeki Memorial Girl's Side Premium ~3rd Story~?: loveplusenglish.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=games&action=display&thread=400

not bad looking but how will the gameplay be? it's a card game so we can expect the weiss type game since that TCG is the one that uses animes/games as their base characters..CHAOS is also another TCG that uses anime characters..

I HATE microtransactions on mobile games, that`s why i never game with my phone, this short of business should be condemned to hell. I wouldn`t mind to churn out full $70 (almost $100 with tax and customs on my country) like when i buy NLP, but i get a FULL, playable games from the start. Also NLP is a very personal game to start with. The idea to share with your friends to unlock "memories" or CGs is not somehing i want to do with my "friends", hell Nene IS my GF so to speak i wont share it with you guys My rants aside, the 4th girl is very cute, if Mino himself said that he have difficulties to create this character, then this may be a bad sign on the next LP series.. hope he can overcme his difficulty.. such a stressfull job a character designer is... But again, if this game is "just" a card game, on top of the stupid social aspect and micro transactions, then i wont buy this, even though i always want more interactions with the LP girls..

yes, i have no idea how this sort of "in-app purchases" thing became so popular..
personally i don't see a reason for a 4th girl..MinoTaro said that it was hard to create cause he wanted the girl to not look/feel similar to the other girls yet be of the same world, it's not 100% a thing that this girl will become part of the project.. personally new haircuts and new cosplay/regular outfits would have been more exciting for me that a new girl..
also the fact this game is available through GREE is a bother to me, wish it was offered as an individual app in the itune/android store instead..
however this statement by konami is very hopeful: "Konami will continue to provide LOVEPLUS across a range of platforms, to deliver the romantic fun of the series to its ever-increasing fan base."

Honestly, instead of pumping money into new developments for "a range of platforms" Konami should at least fix the mess they introduced in 1.2 for NLP...

What's wrong with 1.2? It works perfectly fine for me.
But I agree, they should make a new LP game for the 3DS, not those crappy smartphone games.

Well they introduced quite a few new bugs, like the girl holding her umbrella in Love Plus Mode when its raining, or the girl switching to "sitting at table" mode at the end of the dialogue when having bento with her, or the girl standing up in the middle of drinking a cup of ... whatever it is in Love Plus Mode.

Oh, I haven't encountered any of those bugs yet. Still they're nothing compared to the ones we had at first.

from interviews that are out there it seems Uchida had a lot of miscommunication with the 3DS team so in a way it isn't that strange that Uchida and MinoTaro alone came up with this new 2D animation app.

I just read that they will end the "girlfriend mail" service at the end of this month, but no information whatsoever about 1.3 patch, so i think it may be the end for NLP 3DS..
I`m afraid that if Uchida mean across a range of platforms is targeted to phone/tablet market (not vista or wii u), because it`s really a limited platforms, i mean in terms of limited capability, like limited disk space and battery performance. You can't make a full games on mobile platforms without facing these issues.. NLP for example has 4 GB (cmiiw) of data, not including the patches and save games. Even thought that phone/tablet processing power has increased dramatically in these 2 year, the limited storage and battery performance still hinder it to become replacement of true mobile game experience..
It`s hard to digest if Uchida want to create a "new" NLP full games outside 3DS, because it succeed there and the game platform is matched beautifully, and i surely will think twice if i have to invest on new gaming hardware just to buy the new NLP. Vista and wii u still doesnt have much fans base as 3DS, even thought their console capabilities is outmatching 3DS on many aspects.
Bringing a new full games of NLP is hard work and can take years to complete, and with the abyssmal result of NLP surely they have much to think about.. so maybe they will create a lighter games based on NLP. I dont think they want to create additional content for NLP given the state of this game now (they even stopping the gf mail program), so the logical way out to create NLP related stuff is to create a lighter, spin-off NLP based game that`s not hard to do, doesnt have much development time, but still can manage to capture the NLP fascination..
My bet will be a flash/vector based app game with Mino's wonderful 2D artworks as the selling point. It can be an interactive , touch-based mini game on phone/tablet, it can be a card game or jankenpon or whatever they choose..
