Nobody would really play it though. Besides, most of the stuff SEGA export over here usually ends up doing pretty bad.
I didn't even know SEGA was still in business. I thought they've gone bankrupted or something.

I thought Japan is one of those very few countries that are still enthusiastic about their Arcades.

I saw some of the gameplay and it looks pretty neat. At least no more RNG-sama's BS in dodging enemy's shelling, and the home port really looks lively as your girls loitering around the halls.

So... what is it, exactly?

Do you steer to dodge stuff, then... touchscreen tap to shoot?

Apparently, but that gives you a better feeling over the situation, since if you fuck up its your fault and not RNG's whip on your face

Man this thing is evil. All the arcade cost with the cards you apparantely have to buy or earn.

Is there any word on the cost per play?

The wheel is to steer your girls, the blue button under it is to fire their guns, and the lever on the right is to control your fleet's speed. There's a gauge of whether your girls will be hit by enemies' shelling or not, you need to control the speed and the wheel so it's within the gauge or your girls would get hit. You can shoot back, but there's a certain amount of power gauge that determines the max damage deal, so you need some time to cool down and dodge stuffs before you can attack with max power.

It seems there's no nodes, but the map has determined amount of battles. After the first battle, you go on to the next. You need to send out scouts and avoid the LOS of the enemies' scouts to get the advantage of surprise attack. If you got noticed first by the Abyssals, a pop-up will appear for you to dodge the initial shelling phase. There's an duration for each battle; if the time runs out, you can go to the night battle phase. So in this, you can invoke the yasen node if you like it.

Each player need prepaid card to save data and GP (in-game currency). The GP used to sortie into maps; first and second map 100 GP, third map 150. To get new cards, you have to win battle in one map and feed a credit to the machine. There, you can scout your home port for some girls to get the physical card of and to use them in sorties. Beside from experience gained from sorties, you 'modernized' the shipgirls by having a lot of their card. Their stats stacked with each card. Don't know the clear calculation for that, though.

Yeah, sounds expensive...

The Shining series would like to have a word with you.

Oh, and the Sonic series.
