Studios or Prodution?

[edit]

Really the name is * Productions, not Studio *. Change? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.73.251.67 (talk) 21:41, 12 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Ace Combat 6

[edit]

Just a question to see how everyone feels about this, but should the references of the Idolmaster skin packs for Namco's Ace Combat 6 game be given within the Character section, stay exclusively in the Other Games section, or should it be given a section of its own? I've noticed each skin featuring the girls comes out roughly around the chracter's official birthday, and would venture to say that all of them will most likely get one eventually.

Gameplay

[edit]

I came to this article to find info. on THE iDOLM@STER because I know nothing about it... yet the article never describes the gameplay of the game. What do you actually do in the game? How do you play it? What's the goal? None of the basic information of the videogame were available...Gaming otaku (talk) 22:48, 1 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm planning on adding that info. For now, I can tell you that half of it plays as a typical raising sim, while the other part of it is full of mini-games. It'll be described in detail on the actual page. Benpc91 (talk) 23:38, 1 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks.Gaming otaku (talk) 19:13, 5 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Since no one's added any info on gameplay, I figured I'd informally lay it out really quickly for anyone else who came here to find out what the deal with this game is. Basically, it's a pet-raising simulation. The core of the game focuses on scheduling your idol, dressing her up, and then more or less playing Taiko no Tatsujin to the songs.

UDATE ALREADY!

[edit]

Come on, iM@S SP has been out for months! surely somebody here has heard of it! Hibiki Ganaha! Takane Shijou! 961! PSP! Any of this ringing any bells? On top of that, they've made an announcement that there is going to be a DS spin-0ff called "THE iDOLM@SSTER Dearly Stars". I'd edit the page myself, but I have nothing to show in terms of "reliable sources" to pull information from.

Due to the nature of the series?

[edit]

"Due to the nature of the series, there were no releases outside of Japan."

I don't really understand this line. I'm sure if they were to translate the game it would sell enough copies to be profitable. It isn't really clear what this "nature" is which would make it unprofitable. 202.134.236.14 (talk) 11:27, 11 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

That is correct. The statement is not of a NPOV, or is original research. It has been deleted from the article.--Animeresearcher (talk) 08:33, 15 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Pangya Season 5

[edit]

one of the characters from iDOLM@aster is the main character / feature of the latest Pangya game.

Character list move, gameplay details?

[edit]

I'm surprised there is no gameplay summary for this game. There's tons of character information, but barely any information about the actual game itself. I have never played the game and am hesitant to contribute, but shouldn't the long list of characters be placed on a separate page, similar to anime series with many characters? — ThreeDee912(talk/contribs) 13:27, 8 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I added in an empty "Gameplay" section which others can add to. I guess it's a start. — ThreeDee912(talk/contribs) 13:42, 8 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
There is the Project im@s wiki - along with numerous gameplay footage on youtube and nico nico douga - except I can't understand Japanese unfortunately.  :( The Project im@s wiki should help a bit though. http://www.project-imas.com/w/Main_Page Nublet765 (talk) 20:39, 21 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The character list is still really long, and is taking up too much space in the main article. It would be hard to shorten it, as pretty much the characters listed have have had a major role some point in the series. I think it should be moved to List of The Idolmaster characters, similar to List of Hayate the Combat Butler characters or List of Neon Genesis Evangelion characters. — ThreeDee912(talk/contribs) 01:53, 11 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Story

[edit]

The story should be cleared up. It's stated in the article that Hibiki, Takane and Miki left 961 Pro in Imas 2 and joined 765 Pro. But the stories of Imas 1 and Imas 2 are not connected. Imas 2 can be seen like a parallel universe in which the events of Imas 1 never happened. The Imas 1 producer never joined 765 Pro in it and Project Fairy didn't even exist. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.56.39.194 (talk) 00:04, 20 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Infoboxes

[edit]

I'm getting really confused about how infoboxes for the various games/manga/anime seem to be divided between this article and The Idolmaster 2. For example, the infoboxes for Puchimas! and Dearly Stars are on this article, but the ones for the anime adaptation and Shiny Festa are on the Idolmaster 2 page. I find this particularly odd since most of the actual information pertaining to this media is on the Idolmaster 1 page. I think ideally, given the lack of actual information on the Idolmaster 2 page, the two articles could be merged, as having the various infoboxes split into two articles due to some loose connection to Idolmaster's 2 plot is just gonna cause confusion. Wonchop (talk) 20:13, 29 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • I think i do some research on the Idolmaster series. Maybe we could create a main article for the series with the title: The Idolmaster (franchise), and create different articles for some of the games like The Idolmaster (videogame), The Idolmaster: Live for You, The Idolmaster 2, The Idolmaster: SP, The Idolmaster: Dearly Stars and The Idolmaster: Shiny Festa since each game is very different from the rest (eg. The player character in Dearly Stars is one of 3 Idols in the game while Shiny Festa is more like a Visual Novel Rhythm and Dance game)--FonFon Alseif (talk) 15:26, 30 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
