We've got submission. "About 'Zettai Zetsumei Toshi (Disaster Report) 4 - Summer Memories' which had announced a postpone on Feb 10, would the launching day or the release itself be affected by the recent earthquake? Zettai Zetsumei Toshi is about disaster, don't know if it is good or not that it had not launch on Feb 10. How do you think?" (Submitted by: KURO) |

Here is the announcement made on Feb 10. The original launching date was Mar 10. "PlayStation 3's 'Zettai Zetsumei Toshi (Disaster Report) 4 - Summer Memories' scheduled Mar 10, have to delay the launch. We cannot finish the develop to present the game in its best form within the development period. As a result, we can't fulfill the promise with our customers. As the project leader and game designer, I bear full responsibility. I apologize for this postpone. We will do our best to present the game to you as soon as possible."

How about the influence of the recent earthquake? |
 |
At least the game can't launch for a while. |
 |
They had not announce a new launching yet, but it must be affected huh. |
| Should it be launched on Mar 10 then? | |
|
As a maker, they would hope they could launch it on that date. Because they don't know when they should launch it now. You made a game and you must launch it, otherwise it would be total loss. |
|
But if it had launched on Mar 10, people would blame it for the Mar 11 earthquake. |
 |
Who could ever predict such a disaster? I should say the postpone is just a blessing. |
|
|
But there must be people blaming it if it had launched. |
|
That game is not making fun of disaster. It is a simulation. I should say you can learn the fear and how to act during disaster in that game. So not as bad as people said. |
 |
That's true. |
|
Please try not to be hysteric. I can understand the victim would connect the disaster with such product, but that would make the mass media to attack those who are not really responsible. Someone would say they should never create such game, but that just preventing any creation to be made. |
|
|
Just like the Tokyo non-existent youth bill huh. |
|
This situation happened before. It is hard to launch now. Let see how would IREM deal with it. |
