Konami Tells Retailers To Stop Selling New Love Plus

Company says it's looking for a fix to bugs.

35 min. ago / Anoop Gantayat

A major retailer is reporting via Twitter that Konami has sent out instructions asking that retailers stop selling 3DS girlfriend simulator New Love Plus.

The retailer, national chain Sofmap, says that it will be following Konami's instructions and will even stop handling buyback and used sales for the game until further notice.

It's likely that this move has something to do with some bugs that players discovered following the game's release on Valentine's Day. Konami made official comment about the bugs yesterday, apologizing and saying that it is currently looking for a fix.

While the game does apparently have some general freezing issues, some of the bugs are more specific. The game is supposed to trigger a White Day event for players who received chocolates from their girlfriend on Valentines Day. A bug prevents the White Day event from happening. However, players will still take part in followup events where they will receive additional gifts over the following days.

Visit Konami's FAQ page for additional issues.

This game is doomed to fail. The girlfriend simulator would tell you to turn the game off and take out the trash or something like that.

Well they already sold a ton! So they can afford this stop in production.

To they offer new ones to those effected -- or sell the "Director's Cut" (this one works!)

Whether you're joking or not, it stands to educate that in Japan, the girl/girlfriend/wife gives chocolates on Valentine's Day, and the boy/boyfriend/husband returns the favor on White Day, only having to give chocolates to the women who gave to him in the first place. Sweet enough gig, takes the burden off the guy.
