The doggos finally finished moving into their Japan house earlier


They'll be talking about it more tomorrow but currently, they're doing an 800k Suika Game "endurance."


"Endurance" because they reached it in only 40 minutes.

I'm very doubtful about how successful the prospective Holo card game will be.

The first problem is that the card autists are already heavily invested in their crack of choice already. They've invested so much resources in collecting cards as well as learning strategies, combos and practicing the game. Childhood nostalgia is a hell of a thing, and so is the sunk cost fallacy. Some of these TCG fans might be Hololive/Holostar fans and might buy some packs or a box of cards for something different, but more in the view of a temporary fad they'll try before going back to their main TCG money and time sink.

The other problem is that it will have a very niche appeal. You have to specifically like Holo Vtubers and want to spend hundreds of dollars to want to get invested in the card collecting. If you just want cute anime girls and/or cool anime guys, games like Yugioh, Weiss-Schwartz, and Pokemon are already taking care of you pretty well. And that very niche appeal means you're going to struggle to do the other part of a TCG, which is playing a game, because that's a two-player activity, and you'd need to find someone else who fits into that autistic venn diagram that you do. Without many people to play against, I don't see the game lasting long-term.

They should have just stuck to the Weiss-Schwarz collabs and raked in the licencing money instead.

easy solution, online game/client as a joint publishing deal between Bushiroad and Holo Indie, like the Cardfight!! Vanguard Dear Days game

if licensing fees are a bitch, they could follow a similar DLC model for individual idol themed accessories, card backs, deck holders, play mats, coins/dice/tokens - and that's before actual expansion packs, theme decks, and A.I. Opponents

the monetization writes itself, and since it's digital, it's an incredibly high profit margin for the niche userbase that would buy in

The new setup is also much better from a practical standpoint, since she no longer needs a VR headset with cables, so that means she won't be breaking headsets anymore

Integrate it into HoloEarth as a Triple Triad style thing like FFXIV did.

Nijisisters at it again. Guess that fake ass Scarle and Aster collab wasn't enough to fix their frail ego.

But in reality, Korone is just a very weird person when it comes to collabs and is rarely the person to make the first move. Her and Watame have constantly talked about collabing for years, but since they're both averse to making the first move they're always at a stalemate.

Nobody that buys Holo Cards from Weiss plays the game
They just collect it
One signed Suisei card is worth more than a box and one of Coco,Mel and Rushia is even more

Bob from accounting said:

I have no idea how the game will play or if it will be good at all but I am all for card games.
I just want to summon a bunch of holomembers while shouting
"I HAVE NO NEGLIGBLE IDOLS RIKU"
