Thanks to Amazon.co.jp and a brief site update on the Tokimeki Memorial Girl’s Side 1st Love site, we now know that the popular Tokimeki Memorial Girl’s Side 1st Love is getting a special rerelease on the DS. On March 12, 2009, you can pick up Tokimeki Memorial Girl’s Side 1st Love Plus, almost two years after Tokimeki Memorial Girl’s Side 1st Love came out for the DS. Yup, otome games really are that popular in Japan.
As far as new content goes, it looks like Tokimeki Memorial Girl’s Side 1st Love Plus is just going to feature loads of voice acting. It will have full voice acting, plus there will be commentary from each of the “guys” when you look through the omake galleries. There’s no word about any new events or characters. An official site hasn’t opened for Tokimeki Memorial Girl’s Side 1st Love Plus yet, but the original site does announce the forthcoming remake.
So this remake is that it will be packed with voice acting, be out in time for White Day 2009 and will cost ï¿¥5,250 / ~$58. If you don’t already own the 1st Love, and you’re interested, then I could see 1st Love Plus being a good buy. However, I’m not so sure 1st Love owners are going to run out to buy 1st Love Plus, just because of the extra voice acting.
