Why don't they ever bring dating sims to america? There are a bunch of them on DC and some on NGP.

Um The Sims anyone? They even have a "hot date" x-pack.

Newgrounds.com has 2 of them.

I'm talking about the console/handheld ones like "Pocket Love" or whatever it's called. Stuff like that.

Those 2 at newgrounds was fun. Id buy one if it wasn't real expensive. I wouldn't give more then $30 for one new though.

Simply because, it won't sell well. Some dating sims are rubish anyways. I think they should add dating into more rpgs.

I've been thinking that for years! Wow, great minds think alike.

I mean I just find it totaly unrealist to travel with a group of girls all over the world and not go on date's with them. I mean in most games the love stories are weak and the devolope out of no where. I mean Squall dated Rinoha like once in the game and now she's the love of his life. Totaly bullist.

Cloud and Tifa/Aerith/Tuffie/Barret had a date in the Gold Saucer in Final Fantasy VII. But it doesn't last long.

I got your "Pocket Love" right here

The love story (if any) in most games are weak. But dating sims are pretty weak themselves.

We already have crappy love plots in most Eastern RPGs so I don't think we really need to go through the whole dating procedure too

If I have to spend time trying to get into a womans pants then I would prefer she was at least real
