Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA Mega Mix (Switch) releases May 15th 2020 for the west
- Thread starter ggx2ac
- Start date
I tried to wait for this release but cracked and bought Mega 39's instead. It's a solid game and feels every bit as fun to play as Future Tone. It's better than the Vita games, and has become my new go-to music game for air travel (whenever we get back to that). Ya'll are gonna like it!
Can't wait to pick this up, been waiting for Miku Switch for forever. Game looks fantastic, I really enjoyed the demo.
Downloaded the demo, and looks to be pretty much a portable version of the Future/Colorful Tone game on PS4, and that is perfect for me! Looking forward to this.
It shouldn't be on any other way, if anything, Nintendo should fix the amount of coins it gives.
As huge fan of rhythm games but never having a console that Project Diva was on, I loved Project Mirai DX for the 3DS. I'll definitely be picking this up. For a more recent Miku game fan, do you veterans think the Mega Pack version is worth paying $20 more for? Are there like some killer tracks I'll be missing out on if I don't go for that?
Wondering this too, I'm interested in the game from the demo and 100 songs seems like a LOT already, do I need to spend another $20 for another 35?
Just tried the demo. Don't think I'll be getting it since I already have future tone and I prefer the ps4 controller to the joy con. I probably would get it if I didn't, though.
Also, are the beatmaps just the same as future tones? Arifureta sekai seifuku at least feels exactly the same.

Are a lot of the songs repeats from Future Tone? I was going to get this, but I already played the heck out of Future Tone...
It appears that the DLC packs have some of the most memorable songs from the past games - just in my opinion.
And to add on to that, all of the new songs are going to be added to Future Tone as DLC.
Do you know if there's any possibility of there being more DLC packs after this? A couple of my faves from Project Mirai do not appear to be included :(
Honestly, it probably will. The PS4 game still gets updated with new content and that came out years ago.
So this game is like $30 for the Mega Pack with all the DLC on the Mexican eShop. Is there a list comparing the songs missing from this game compared to Future Tone? I've never really gotten into Miku.
Has anyone who is Pretty Good at Project Diva played the JP release?
I'm concerned that duel-wielding in extreme songs will be awkward on the offset-analog-stick Joycons.

I'm torn on whether I want to get this game. This'll be the first Hatsune Miku game I buy because, whilst I've always had a 'desire' to play the games, I've never actually picked one up. However the fact this is on Switch really makes me consider it. I've got two hours to decide, though, as I'd want to get that pre-order song.
For a complete beginner would people say that the regular version is worth it?

To be quiet honest, game is a rip off compared to FT. FT has 227 songs while Mega has like 170+ give or take. Not to mention a good majority of the DLC is some of the most popular songs from the series. Like I want to buy it, but going from FT to this is bothering me.
Not JP copy, but I got a review copy and I've played every game since f on Vita, and even went backwards to play Extend on PSP.
Dual wielding is fine, I haven't had a problem with it. Only thing that's notably a pain is hold notes if you're used to using macros on bumpers.
The song list is way less than FT but youre still getting a lot of songs and plenty of the newer more fun charts too.
Get the regular version if you dont want to commit too much. Theres easy and normal mode charts for most but not all songs to help you get used to the game. I chanced on FT as my first miku game randomly too and it really stuck with me.
I played JP Megamix for about 20 hours and dabbled with extreme and ex extreme songs quite a bit.
Handheld mode honestly is almost impossible to get perfects on extreme. The switch just isnt comfortable enough. It's alright for normal play but dont expect much on handheld mode.
In table top mode with the joycon grip it's much more manageable but still cant compare to a dualshock 4. Dual wielding is okay but slides are a bit weird and hitting bumpers/triggers for macros and holds is still terrible even with the grip. Playing with a pro controller or similar controller is also a non starter because while you get good triggers and bumpers you get stuck with a cross style d-pad which will definitely get you misinputs when dual wielding unlike with a DS4 or Joycons.
Overall DS4 is still the best way to play this sort of game but Joycons in grip mode is more than fine especially if you forsake holds and macros.
been working on my review on this... its a rhythm game alright.
Dual wielding is done well too, but as Theswweet said, wrist pain does eventually occur holding notes for a long time.

Does anyone know when it will be unlocked in Europe? I bought and preloaded it and it's past midnight already, still not playable for me.
Thanks! My only worry is that the music packs are all £6 each with no Season Pass option, so if I do end up really liking the game and wanting more I'll have to pay £36 extra to get everything instead of the £17.50 extra it costs bundled.
Are the 100-or-so songs already there a good value? I don't know.
I felt like of the 100 or so base songs they got a lot of really good ones, especially the newer one. But as far as value goes, my opinion was skewed by future tone which has ridiculous value so I might be bias.
For comparison past games would be around the same price but have 30-35 songs and some other elements like virtual interaction with the idols. So I guess compared to games pre future tone it's great value since it's way more songs
Damn, I'm really not sure. I feel like I might like this game but I just don't know lol I've always had this problem with these games because for some weird reason I'm not 100% sure whether I want to buy them or not.
Fuck it, just pre-ordered the Mega Pack (in the nick of time). Sometimes I just need to get over my purchase anxiety and just buy something lol
In the end I figured that if I'm gonna get into this series I might as well get something with as much content as possible (and on a console I'll actually play it on lol).

Maybe midnight tonight EST? Anything I've preloaded has tended to unlock then.
Nothing announced yet.
Posted some brief impressions if anyone is interested: https://retronauts.com/article/1520/dont-avoid-the-vocaloid-hatsune-miku-project-diva-mega-mix
That would be great if it did, would be easy enough to import the physical release from Japan. There are menu translations here, but it's not the same.
Have fun. If you need gameplay tips, dont be afraid to ask. My learning process with Project diva was so messed up as I ended up going through multiple control schemes before finding out the best way to play lol
Having played the demo, I feel this is a bit weaker compared to the last miku vita game. I do not like having to press all four buttons at the same time thing they're doing in this one. I much prefer the last vita miku game with changing visuals based on how well you're doing and the controls were IMO better as well.
I'm still gonna play this since it's more Miku rhythm game though.

I'm already 13 hours into the 15th of May and the game still isn't available on my side of Europe-Land, what gives?
It seems like I always run into some funkiness whenever I pre-order stuff from the Nintendo eShop, it's like each title has a life of its own. Does anyone know when this should be available?
