Portables would be a better fit for VNs IMO.

But holy shit if it's MG's shitty translations. Why do all these companies think they can release VNs written in substandard English, full of typos and grammar errors, and actually have people buy them? I thought we were past this stage of rampant Engrish in Jap-English translations. Don't they remember what happened to Hirameki? Do they not have enough money lying around to hire a real translator? Proof readers? And now they expect to release this shit on consoles?

They're the only ones on the market and they dont need to be quality because no one else is.

Theres no competition, no nothing.

Someone clearly hasn't been supporting JAST USA's official localizations of Nitro+ games

With this level of quality there isn't going to be much of a market for VNs beyond a small niche. MG will collapse just like Hirameki did.

They'd make some mad money if they kept their "transfer to our format" system and did PS2 to PC ports.

Well, they'd get some mad piracy, but since it is hard to get PS2 translations I think most who has money would support it by buying.

>Bawwww the VN I pirated doesn't have perfect english

Seriously, shut the fuck up already. Don't like it? Don't play it.

And Hirameki collapsed because LOL STORYLINE CUTTING and far, far worse translations.
Oh, and that shitty DVD Play format.
