Re-evaluating Princess Maker 2
The title say's it all. A popular abandonware title which I want back to the game roster, and the main reason is because there's no way anyone can buy this.
This is a unreleased english beta, which is clearly not available from anywhere unless some jackass burned it on cd and sells it as a genuine copy, which still doesnt count. EDIT: http://www.abandonia.com/en/games/18...s+Maker+2.html Last edited by TheChosen; 19-10-2008 at 05:02 PM. |

This is Gainax's official site, translated from Japanese of course, there is still a support page => Link.
Also, accordingly to wikipedia there's a refined edition of P.MakerII => Link, which was released on 2004-09-30 for windows, it has improved graphics, sound quality and various other things, but basically it's the same game. It says you can buy it by mail for 2480 Yen...Gainax isn't an ESA member, but Princess Maker is still an active brand (PMaker4 is for Nintendo DS) and they still care about the old titles, it's not abandoned. |

OBJECTION!
I restate my point: Yes, Princess Maker 2 is supported. But the english beta of Princess Maker 2 is not supported, sold or even approved by Gainax. Therefore, its not part of the Princess Maker product line and therefore is abandoned! Same game yes, but different product. Last edited by TheChosen; 20-10-2008 at 06:40 PM. |

Explain me better the nature of this English Beta, is it a fanmade remake or a translated version of the original?

There is no actual information about who removed it, or for what reason.
Some digging shows it's status was changed to Protected in in September 2006. |
