The scoop on Vitamin Y and Z!

Thanks to sonnakai, my burning curiosity about the new Vitamin game is satisfied – there will be TWO games; one is a compilation of mini-games and not a new full story, but it sounds like Vitamin Z will have new characters and a story! Yayyyy!! Ahem. I’m very tired and giddy, so please excuse me if I start rambling.

Now, the lowdown!

Vitamin Y:

• Being released this fall on the DS, expected price Y4410
• 26 minigames – one bigger game with the B6 and T6 (and 3D rendering!) and 25 others
• the 25 are split into 2 with each B6 guy, 1 each with each T6, and 7 with a variety.

Apparently the games become available as you move through the main game. It’s school festival time, and though the class has decided on a café, Tsukasa announces that he’s getting his company to take over the whole festival and do everything.
Somehow you manage to convince him not to, but by the school festival, the B6 have still used Tsukasa’s resources to set up a bunch of attractions on school grounds.

Screencap shamelessly lifted from Gamewatch.

Vitamin Z:

• Scheduled for Spring 2009!
• New characters, and the B6 will appear as well – as teachers!! O.o
• It will have animation in it!
• It’s set 5 years after VitaminX
• The new characters are the A4 (aho) and P2 (perfect 2)
• No word that I could find about platform

And I can’t believe, this was announced two weeks ago!! Gyaah, I could have been squeeing for two weeks already! I’ll just quote a Japanese blogger and say, “ギャー！買う、買います、全部下さい！！”

OH, and since I’ve been enjoying the gymnastics at the Olympics, some real-life pics (never thought you’d see any on here eh??) of some awesome athletes that I’m cheering for!

Uchimura Kohei – one of the young guys (19) on the Japanese team – the commentators are driving me CRAZY pronouncing his last name as Oocheemeree – c’mon guys, Japanese names are not hard!! That’s an A not a Y!

And some Canadian guys who are representing us in the all-around competition:

Nathan Gafuik

and Adam Wong.

OK, bedtime!

New Vitamin Rumours?

Just a speedy post looking forward to the new mags this month – I wait until B’s Log is out before ordering Girl’s Style, but I went to the site to get a hint of news and lookie what I saw:

Vitamin Y!! Kyaa! If you don’t know, I’m a huge fan of VitaminX, and would love another title – now I wonder whether it would feature a continuation of the same storyline and characters, or a new teacher. My first reaction is to hope for a totally new title – VitX Evolution had the teacher endings that was all I wanted in addition to the original, so I really don’t need any additional story from the existing cast. But I’m sure if it was done well, I’d still love it – really any more Vitamins will be good for me
