Anime Expo 15: Shall We Date? Announces Two New Games

I don't have a lot of info to share with you about Shall We Date? Their booth was busy. Very busy. It took me a while just to get someone to talk to me and then I really didn't get a lot of info other than they're trying to expand the Otome dating games in the US. Right now the percentage is very small, but I imagine that the Shall We Date? brand is a large part of that percentage. If you're unfamiliar with the Otome dating sim genre I'll explain; it's basically a game in which you date multiple male characters which you're probably thinking, "big deal." Well the majority of dating sim games are female based. They actually have a lot of titles to check out that are all out on iOS and Android so if you're curious I would start there first.

So here's a look at the two new games which each have their own storylines that of course involve dating and sometimes saving the world... by dating.

Destiny Ninja 2

The following stories take place in Yamato Island, where the four seasons exuberantly express their beauties -- However, those beauties are on the verge of being lost.

With eight fated ninjas as your companion from the Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter Villages, the journey to save the Island stars now...

Here's the last new game they announced, but there's no details yet. I would assume it's about a love triangle since that's the name of the game, but honestly that sounds like it'll be very different from their other games in which the point is to date several male characters rather than just the two. As for me, I'm going to go ahead and check out the main title and see what's up with this game that really does grow in popularity each year.
