Tokimeki Memorial Switch Release Date Set in May 2025

Konami has announced the full Japanese release date for Tokimeki Memorial: Forever With You Emotional. It will release the remastered version of the first-ever Tokimeki Memorial entry for Nintendo Switch in Japan on May 8, 2025. The company also explained the new features it teased previously during the game's reveal at the Japanese August 2024 Nintendo Direct. One of them is the EVS (Emotional Voice System), which lets the game's characters call the player's name in a more natural way, but originally only appeared starting from the 1999 sequel Tokimeki Memorial 2. Konami will also gradually add more callable names to the list via internet downloads. The other feature shown in the new announcement is a new option that will let players choose between the original and remastered versions of the character graphics and user interface. They can even mix and match between the two choices, so one can even opt to have the original character graphics with a remastered user interface, for example.
