I basically never heard of Riviera when it was on the wonder swan.. I went to gamespot and heard about good reviews for it but Nintendo gave it a 6.5 out of 10, outraged I trusted on gamespot.com review... I liked the way that:
1) It's an anime game
2) Japanese
3) I need a decent RPG to pass the time, Golden Sun or Boktai's art didn't catch my attention as this did.
4) Finally a unique battle system!
5) On the back it said sexual content, drug use, ESRB: Teen, and wow, I said to myself this is the game for me, as I've heard of bathing scenes and pervertedness... I'm glad I bought this game!
Although after 2 weeks after it's release I've been contacting EB Games, Walmart etc... if they had it.. anyway I bought it off amazon.ca because I couldn't wait and now I simply love it!

Although there are some quite a few drawbacks...
1) Training takes up time, but it helps in later events when confronting a monster...
2) You use the D pad to manuver only...
3) No multiplayer connection...
4) Quite linear...

Now the good points :)

1) Brief anime skin showing!
2) Selection of girls!
3) Humor of pervertedness
4) Extra Contents! This drew me into the game more, because there were extras and a face collection, the cgs are simply amazing!
5) You have a sense of accomplishment when you beat the game.
6) 6 Endings
7) Lots of replay value
8) It's so damn fun! I love Riviera!

I FINALLY COMPLETED EVERYTHING IN EXTRA CONTENTS TO 100%! BAMN!
