I know the PC version of Hatoful Boyfriend has been down to $2.49, but the PS versions include another route. Amnesia: Memories is part of the Steam sale here for only $2.99, so it’s up to you whether playing it on the original system and having it portable is worth three times the amount. As a Vita owner, I’m torn about which version I’m getting. I’ll also probably pick up Hatoful Boyfriend for the updates.

So, are you picking up anything during this sale? Or have you played any of these games before and have an opinion on it? Let me know in the comments!

Game Summary – Idol Route from I Doll U

I Doll U Completion Bonus CG

This is part of a series of summaries for the PS Vita game I Doll U. For a brief introduction to the game, go here. Heavy spoilers for the game ahoy!

This one covers the Idol Route. Start with the main route to understand the story. This route should be read last. Read all the guys’ routes first.

My Japanese is limited, so apologies if I misunderstood anything. If I got something wrong, please feel free to tell me.

Warning: long post ahead! Line breaks correspond with the end of a track or segment (chapter).
