- The titles are still tentative.
- The price for every release is 3,500 yen (tax included)
- The double catalog numbers make me believe that every release includes a DVD. This is not (yet) mentioned on the e-hon site though.

Title: Re: [12/10] Hello! Project Mega Best releases
Post by: kingthaking81 on October 03, 2008, 08:18:09 PM: I wonder if there will be new material like remixes. why bother getting old stuff which has been released couple of times? the special unit one would be the only interesting because i didnt get the pucchi best albums. Uhm, where is kaori iida 's best???
Title: Re: [12/10] Hello! Project Mega Best releases
Post by: shirenuファクトリー on October 03, 2008, 08:37:24 PM: Sometimes people want to buy the 'old hits' that they remember from 90s and such, maybe a part of the reason for these releases is that... Or also new H!P fan generation who might be interested in checking out the past units... Still, can't be a large target audience, but whatever :lol:

I know if I was rich I'd buy at least the Tanpopo/Pucchimoni & Melon Kinenbi ones :3

Post by: SomethingWild on October 03, 2008, 10:32:05 PM: I may be interested in the Country Musume or Special Units one, depening on the DVD content.. if there is a dvd included (:.
Title: Re: [12/10] Hello! Project Mega Best releases
Post by: coachie on October 03, 2008, 10:39:40 PM: The T&C Bomber one is total rip-off! Only 8 tracks, booo UFA.
Title: Re: [12/10] Hello! Project Mega Best releases
Post by: mr.niigaki on October 03, 2008, 10:40:28 PM: I'm rather sad about these, as I basically own everything I want in singles or albums so I won't need to buy any of them. I love spending my money towards H!P. :cry:

Country Musume seems a bit overkill as they have 2 best albums, and the 2nd one had songs from the 1st.

If there are DVDs it makes this worth it a bit more but it's still kinda sad that there isn't anything new, or at least having new groups or reformed groups doing new versions of the songs. I'd kill for a updated version of 7AIR. XD

Well, at least this is good for people that don't have much of a collection.

Title: Re: [12/10] Hello! Project Mega Best releases
Post by: Kirigirisu on October 04, 2008, 03:44:28 PM: Hrmm I own quite a lot of what is available on all of these albums, I'm somewhat tempted by the Country Musume and T&C Bomber one. Just because I love Country Musume and don't have everything by T&C.

All the tracklist are edited by the blog
Title: Re: [12/10] Hello! Project Mega Best releases
Post by: DHG on October 05, 2008, 07:20:54 AM: I'm a bit worried by this. I hope this isn't the last for Melon Kinenbi. I'm probably gonna end up getting both the Melon Kinenbi one and the Tanpopo/Pucchimoni one.

Post by: Masabi on October 05, 2008, 11:24:06 PM: what the crap? there's no new content for any of them.

When an album is a "Best" type of album, it's usually not expected to have new stuff.
Title: Re: [12/10] Hello! Project Mega Best releases
Post by: shirenuファクトリー on October 06, 2008, 10:09:56 AM: And how could they have new material when most of these groups are long defunct? :lol:
Title: Re: [12/10] Hello! Project Mega Best releases
Post by: mini*wheat on October 06, 2008, 03:21:01 PM: I was kind of hoping for maybe a remix or two thrown in there. And Nacchi's does have one "new" song.

I think they should make a W Mega Best and give us that single that we never got... providing it hasn't already been used for another H!P group.
Title: Re: [12/10] Hello! Project Mega Best releases
Post by: Linus on October 06, 2008, 08:46:07 PM: Nacchi's album has a new song because her album is not mean to be a wrap-up-and-goodbye Christmas-gift like all the Zetima's MEGA BESTs. Nacchi's has the tentative title of "Complete Best", it's a hachama release, and it happens to be on the same day Zetima decided revive all their hiatus acts, which I find kind of ridiculous. Morever, Nacchi has not only one new song in the album, but also a new single coming out a week before with the solely purpose to make people buy the Best, in which the single will be not.

Post by: shurastriker on October 07, 2008, 03:35:38 AM: mega best needs some remixes

isn't this the 10 years anniversary of H!P? maybe that can explain (kinda) this releases... but i'm worried about Yuulo and M.K. >.< hope this means nothing and is just part of the H!P 10 years activities or whatever.

btw: reading mega i can't avoid thinking in this combo you can buy at KFC XD
Title: Re: [12/10] Hello! Project Mega Best releases
Post by: lil_hamz on October 07, 2008, 11:53:51 AM: I always get a heart attack when I see a "best of something" release. But thankfully this time it seems purely that. Just a best of special and not disbanding or axing anyone. Hmmm the shuffle and special unit ones seem quite alright -goes to think about it-

I'm pretty sure they don't have the rights to releasing Kago's stuff anymore, seeing as her picture isn't up on the site and everything that she's been in has been removed.

She's still listed as an artist in Minimoni and Sakuragumi, her picture's just not there because she's no longer a member of H!P. Same thing goes for Mika, Ayaka, Miuna, and Asami. And I think there's no hard feelings between Aibon and UFA anymore. They are releasing the cancelled 2006 Winter concert DVD to fanclub members afterall.
Title: Re: [12/10] Hello! Project Mega Best releases
Post by: Kirigirisu on October 10, 2008, 10:19:46 PM: I think they're more likely releasing it just for the sake of earning some extra money. Since Kago's comeback her fanbase has most likely been somewhat restored and releasing an old concert that features her might cater to her fans.

Post by: tiny on November 06, 2008, 03:10:08 PM: Natalie is reporting that the Melon Kinenbi best album will be called 「MEGA MELON」. There will be one 'new' song on the cd, a cover of 「GIVE ME UP」 (original by Michael Fortunati) made a big hit by female duo BaBe (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BaBe) in 1987.
