I'm eagerly waiting for Grand Bazaar, but I am indecisive between that and Twin Villages.

So, your opinion?

Grand Bazaar in English?
or
Twin Villages/Village of Twins in Japanese?

Note; I don't speak or read Japanese, but I'm sure I could figure my way around...
Thank you~!

I personally don't think it's a good idea to buy a game when you can't understand it. You can figure things out with guides but you'll be spending more time looking up translations and FAQs than actually playing the game.

I mean, Grand Bazaar is still a fun game...

Go with first Grand Bazaar, play through it and buy Twin Villages as soon as it is out in America. Twin Villages is a nice game, but you really need understanding of Japanese to fully enjoy it. Plus, why missing on Grand Bazaar when it's coming out so soon?

I'd go with Grand Bazaar... It can get a little repetitive, but overall I think it's a really fun game and definitely worth playing. I had a great time on my first play through of it, and it's still one of my favorite handhelds in the series-- and like Fin said, the game won't be as fun if you're constantly looking through FAQS or just trying to imagine/struggle to figure out what the characters are saying

I would say twin villages!!!

I agree with Nurse Fin.

It gets boring if you don't understand what they are saying. Since Grand Bazaar is coming soon, buy that one since it's unique in it's own way. Then save up for Twin Village.

I'm getting Grand Bazaar now, 'cause it's coming out in English pretty soon, and I'll just get TV when it comes out in English whenever that happens xD

Twin of Villages is better than Grand Bazaar

I have TV even though I don't understand Japanese, and I have spent no more time looking at FAQs for this game than I have for any other. I'm just kind of going with the flow, and letting what happens, happens. I'll start worrying about the plot when the game comes out in English. For now, I'm having fun just doing random stuff.

As to the thread, if you'd rather know what's going on, wait for Grand Bazaar. If you're fine with farting around and hoping you'll accidentally do something plot-related, get Twin Villages. I haven't played GB yet, but TV has the most entertaining foraging system in any HM game I've ever played, which is a huge selling point for me (though, judging from the whole one gameplay video I've seen of GB, it has the same system).

Why not both?

I'm going with both.

I think Twin Villeges looks better, honestly. i just ordered my copy, still waiting for it.
and ill get Bazaar when it comes out of course.

So when TV comes in English you'll get that too? You'll only be wasting money.

Getting it in Japanese is all cute and fun and all that... but in the end, if you don't understand a thing you're only cheating yourself. You'll miss out on the enjoyment of playing and instead dedicate your time to reading a FAQ.

Go with Grand Bazaar.

I'm using it as an opertunity to improve my japanese. i know hirigana and some katakanna. i dont know kanji at all, but i'll get there eventually, i hope. I like challanges.

You're an exception -- it seems like a lot of the time, people who try to play a game without knowing the language can be really annoying about it, and ask for help with every little thing.

The ones who are like, "Here's a screencap I took, what is it saying, what button do I press I can't even get past the intro" "no matter what i do it's still in chinese help this game sux because i don't get it " Maybe I seem harsh, but if people are going to be like that they should not be playing the game, and if they bought it legally, they wasted their money because I do not want to help them.

I would go with Grand Bazaar since the game is going to be released and it is actually very calming game. I have both Wind Bazaar and Twin Villages. I have knowledge behind the language but I am still studying. But if you have no knowledge behind the language I would wait until Grand Bazaar is released.
