Miku Hatsune Virtual Idol Dōjin Game Approved
posted on by Egan Loo
The Ejin Kenkyūsho asked Ejin Kenkyūsho and another dōjin circle, Murder Kōbō, to cease distribution of their Tatakae! Ore no Hatsune Miku ver.1.2 (Fight! My Miku Hatsune ver. 1.2) fighting simulation adventure game two weeks after its January 25 release. Crypton has now aproved the game, although Eijin has to rename the game as Ike! Miku to Mikurobo Kenkyūsho (Go! Miku and the Miku-robo/Microbo Laboratory). Eijin says it will change its game's logo and packaging (pictured at right) to reflect Crypton's request, so it will release the revised game after a short delay.
Ejin notes that Crypton has also changed its guidelines and online Q&A page. Crypton no longer explicitly forbids unofficial releases based on Miku Hatsune, as long as those releases do not damage the image of its products. There are titles based on Miku Hatsune, and an unknown number of unofficial dōjinshi manga.
