Sega is set to bring Hatsune Miku project to PS3

A good chunk of you are probably entirely confused as to who Hatsune Miku is, but you’ll be shocked to know that this girl is quite the internet sensation in Japan. Not only that, but just entering the name into YouTube will bring up thousands of videos of girls pretending to be a pretend character singing. It sounds like a ridiculous scenario (and it is), but who could deny the kawaii that is Miku? Nobody.

At a recent concert event, SEGA announced that it has plans to release a downloadable software application for the PlayStation 3 in order to make the PlayStation Portable title playable on the big screen through your big machine. This is a great announcement for fans of the game, but unless they plan on porting the title over to North America, it’ll mean very little to the rest of us.

According to some sites, the visual quality will be on par with the arcade version, but nothing has yet been confirmed. This is just something you guys will have to sit on the edge of your seats to wait for.

    I think I’ve seen her in a vegetable juice commercial. Would like to see more of her.

    God I hate Miku and all the other vocaloids. Pretty much embodies everything I hate about ‘otaku’ culture.

    Awesome! I love Hatsune Miku. I didn’t get into Vocaloid till this past summer but all the songs I’ve heard, I have enjoyed.

    Hot damn! Can’t wait! OK, maybe not. I have no idea what this is, but I guess there’s always someone who cares about something.

    I love Project Diva, shame this won’t be on a disc though (would have imported it). I highly doubt this will ever be on the US store.

    @Dr. Moogle, it’s not an anime. From what I gather, Vocaloid is 95% fan-made.
