Go! Go! Nippon!

Go! Go! Nippon!: My First Trip to Japan is a 2011 visual novel game developed by Overdrive. The game features a male tourist excited to travel to Japan for the first time with the intention of visiting two male friends. On arriving, he finds out his friends Makoto and Akira are actually two women he is set to stay with for a week. During his visit, the two sisters act as tour guides of cities and sightseeing locations around Japan and offer details about their history. Depending on the choices made in the game, the player has the opportunity to fall in love with one of the girls.

The game was developed by Overdrive, who previously had created more Japanese adult-oriented games. One of the staff members at Overdrive created MangaGamer in 2008 to expand a worldwide audience for these types of games, and created Go! Go! Nippon! to feature elements of these types of games, such as interacting with cute girls while reading text and making choices. MangaGamer initially reported poor sales in 2011, with a representative of the company discussing the difficulties of releasing successful visual novels beyond their niche audience to Western markets. After submitting Go! Go! Nippon! to Steam's green-light program, the game was eventually accepted for release by Steam. It went on to sell over 30,000 copies by 2014. A MangaGamer representative said along with their release of Higurashi When They Cry (2002) in the early 2000s, it allowed the service to be more open to releasing visual novels. Go! Go! Nippon! was reviewed from RPGFan and Siliconera, who both found the game functioned better as a virtual guide to Japan than as a virtual novel.
