The one console to rule them all…

<span class="bold">Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth1</span>, the satirical JRPG series finally takes on Windows computers everywhere, available now, DRM-free on GOG.com with a 50% launch discount.

Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth1 takes place in the land of Gamindustry, it's a story of four goddesses also known as Console Patron Units, or CPUs, locked in a thousand year struggle, called the Console War, in which they fight each other for shares. Yup.
If that wasn't blunt enough - the Hyperdimension Neptunia series is a spoofy JRPG take on the gaming industry. The world, the characters, everything here is a little nod, a gamer-friendly meme, or just unabashed satire. But don't be mistaken, the game is far from a one-trick pony - there is plenty here for fans of the genre. Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth1 brings a novel fighting system which combines free movement with classic turn-based RPG combat, as well as many other huge improvements in mechanics and presentation over the game originally released on the PSP.

You can also pick up the <span class="bold">Additional Content1 DLC</span> pack featuring a much higher level cap, new quests, battles and Plans.

Is the Console War worth fighting? Find out with <span class="bold">Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth1</span>, DRM-free now on GOG.com! The launch discount will end on November 10, 1:59 PM GMT.
Wow the "Console Wars" have finally made it to GOG! :P
For people wanting to see some gameplay, here's some footage from the Vita version:

Aside from that, I think GOG discovered they could sell to the anime crowd so we can expect more of these type of releases.....

InfraSuperman: So, was this the subject of that enigmatic hint about "console wars" from a while back?

JudasIscariot: Yes :)
Dare I ask why it took so long?

...

Scratch that, I do dare.
Why did it take so long?

Dare you answer? :P
Not what I was expecting, but I'll take it. Been hoping this would make it here after that console wars hint a while back. Time to play it and get ready for 2 and 3.

We expect big things even if you don't speak at all like yesterday! ;)

It was actually a matter of principle and I am not being facetious about it, either :) Just...guess what I mean, ok? :)
With the game's clear message against pirating, I always thought the Neptunia series would be tied down with DRM. This is so crazy!

Now to patiently wait for Re;birth 2 and the recently released Re;birth 3 :)

No worries, 2 possibilities pop to mind, though I'd have guessed that the enigmatic hint had meant it wasn't either one. Thank you for the replies either way.
Hm, nothing for me but still a nice release. Holding fingers for Mini Metro release on friday.

Erm, no. This is a port of a PlayStation Vita game that itself was a scaled-down remake of a PS3 title.
Nice release, been waiting for this to come and glad to see it finally arrive!
