![]() ![]() By the way, the story was deeper, with more characters to manage with and more locations to visit obviously, there were also more situations, such as the swimming, and new daily events. ![]() But surely something had caught the audience in their hearts, in fact the following episode showed a great performance on the market.Įxactly two years later, Boku no Natsuyasumi 2 was released for PS2 this game acted as a sort of reboot: the same structure of the prequel (the same protagonist as well, Boku) but a different setting, an island town instead of a farm in the country. I’ve played this game later on with the remake on PSP and I can assure that the feeling created is very special and the reproduction of the Japanese culture is perfect within an experience which makes the players remember the childhood in every of its aspects.Īt that time, the game was a sleeper hit: it starts with just 27.757 copies the first week but it ends with slightly over the 200.000 mark ( Famitsu data), becoming a cult game among Japanese videogamers the result is particularly meaningful since My Summer Vacation was out almost 5 months after the PS2 launch so it should have been overcome by the new console and its line-up but this didn’t happen, also because PS1 still run well with important releases ( Final Fantasy IX, Dragon Quest VII). The game simulated a Japanese boy experience during his Summer holidays in late 70s players had to organize his days and activities, such as make friends, collect bugs and explore the countryside, while observing the rules of the uncle where the boy was a guest. ![]() The series started 11 years ago on Playstation as a tradition the subsequent releases maintained, the first chapter was released in Summer, on June 22, 2000, in order to fit better its atmosphere with the period when videogamers should have played it. I’m obviously referring to Boku no Natsuyasumi, literally My Summer Vacation, developed by Millenium Kitchen and published by Sony on each one of its consoles. ![]() Therefore, it’s the right moment to talk about a delightful series made in Japan, which has put the Summer as the absolute protagonist of the affair. Summer has almost come in Italy maybe it’s too early, but the thermometer cannot lie and reads about 30°, a perfect temperature to enjoy the sun and the beach. ![]()
