And yes, it's definitely Clover. I can't read Japanese, but the kanji characters next to her picture read 'four-leaf' in Chinese. Poor girl can't get a break.

The only problem I've got with her outfit is that it's hideous. I mean, just look at her shoes. Those are the ugliest shoes I've seen in my life.

Eh, we'll see.
Oh wait, 999 was M, wasn't it? (I forgot xD) Then there really shouldn't be any problems with the sequel being M, too. And if they allowed Lotus just fine in 999, I doubt they'll have problems with Underboob.

Perhaps when it is released, then Aksys can think about localisation.

I saw that, but I don't know how reliable it is, since I've seen other sources with full predicted launch dates from Famitsu, which indicated "good people die" as a WINTER release. Not that it matters too much, as February is pretty much a worst case scenario in "winterness" anyway.
Blah!

Given how the first news report said that the game was about half way done, I'm not surprised that it would be released late in the Winter season, rather than in December or early January.
Even so, it would be better to have a more reliably sourced release date anyway. It could still be too soon for one to be declared.

Am I the only one who can't see them?
EDIT: Nevermind, fixed it. I... don't really like those 3D models, but oh well. They always look better on the actual console, anyway.

Time to ask Aksys about localising it? I'm sure they or someone else are on it but Aksys did such a good job with 999, it makes sense IMO for them to do the sequel.
I hope for multiple endings in Good People Die as well.
I can't see the screenshots either?

So... does this mean you can get a game over this time? You couldn't in 999 (well, you could get a bad ending, but that's not quite the same).
Also, I kinda like “Sigma and Phi and Tenmyouji and Quark and Alice and Yotsuba and Dio and Luna and K are All Trapped in Weird Place! Oh No!”, lol.

In 999, the "game" had you opening numbered doors, if the digital root of the players bracelet's matched the number on the door. If you entered a door without being a part of the group with the correct digital root, or if you didn't get to deactivate your bracelet within the next 81 seconds after activating it, you would die.
I think the same will apply in the sequel: although there's a lot of ways to die in the ambidex game, the players will probably work together most of the way, and then at the end, some of them will start to betray each other, which will lead to various endings. But I don't think that you can die until that point.
But perhaps you'll get the chance to eliminate some other players yourself, which will then lead to additional endings.
I'm very curious as to what number the players will have when the game starts. Will it be the same number on all the bracelets, or will they go from 1-9 like in the nonary game? If the latter, then we might see an early kill like in 999. If the former, well.. what will the starting number then be? 5?
Before I read this new information, I thought that you had to land on exactly 9 to open a door, which opened up a lot of potential. For example, if you then had an even number on your bracelet, you would have to betray someone at least once, which would make the betrayal-option a lot more tempting for some... but if the bracelet number just needs to be higher than 10, then wouldn't it be possible for them to just cooperate until all of them can escape? Or perhaps there's a limit as to how many times the players get to trust/betray each other?
Either way, the ambidex game sounds awesome.

But either way, expect something you won't expect 
Why am I the only one who's so psyched about the ambidex game?

For a second I thought Luna (that's the red-head, right?) had a super-manly speech style, but then I realized that it was Sigma speaking xD (CUZ HE'S MANRY)
If the "cooperation"/"betrayal" is part of the game system (I noticed those keywords) then I can definitely see where Prisoner's Dilemma comes in xD
I like the models :3
Mid-february, eh? I reaaaaally wanted to wait until v2 of the 3DS to get one, but I reaaaaaaaaaaaaaaally want to get this, too............ Hmm, maybe it won't get localized until 3DSv2 is out? (Because then it'll solve the problem I was worrying about with getting this when it came out in Japanese, and then not having anyone to discuss it with xD)

I mainly skipped over the rules of the Ambidex Game :D
I like the idea of "Beating the game on Hard gets you a nice prize". I hope thats more than just a video or whatever, and means potentially even more replays besides "Multiple" (?) endings.

Chunsoft arent talking with Aksys yet
Aksys themselves arent localising the game
It won't be localised?!?!!!
I just havent heard anything yet and even on Neogaf one member who works for Aksys probably isnt sure ("I hope some nice publisher localises this") Also we don't know whether they'd sub or dub it (I hope sub).

999 sold well in the West, didn't it? I'd think they would release the sequel too, then. Considering the long lag in localizing 999, and how long it'll probably take to localize 999-2, I don't think this means much. They also might be waiting for the 3DS to sell a bit more before they want to localize it.

999 indeed sold better in America than Japan (150,000+ copies Vs ca. 30,000...?)

Huh, a year. This is going to be problematic. I enjoy this thread, but that spoiler button is too tempting to not click once the game is released. And it's not like you can put the devil back in the box once you've opened it.

As for localization, I'm not sure how much Akselziys (the Aksys staff member on NeoGAF) is just teasing. They've made it very clear they'd love to translate the game, and I get the impression that at this point they're just waiting for Chunsoft to make a deal with them.

And I noticed that Alice's name is shown as "Allice" in the website and Zero III is shown as Zero 3.

Ask yourself this: Is it better going into 999-2 having no preconception about the characters background and personalities, other then by their artwork and what can be gathered by 999-1. Or having the cryptic yet telling bio known?
Honestly, I don't know myself.

I dont mind reading the bios TBH, I doubt theyre that spoilerish.
I'll probably have forgotten by the time 999-2 comes round anyway.

I doubt it. Japanese people sometimes get their l's and r's mixed up when writing in romaji, and I think that's what happened here. Besides, qualk doesn't mean anything, while quark is a Physics term, and we all know how much 999 loves its (pseudo)science...
The bios don't say much, so I'm fine with reading them. Besides, it's not like they're going to reveal major plot points; at least I don't think so. After all, most of the fun in 999 is in its plot, so I don't think they want to reveal too much.
Besides, we don't actually know much about the plot at all. We know the new rules (which isn't even plot-related), and we know the identities of two of the characters (which is something anyone could see coming just from taking a look at the first scans that got released), but that's about it.
