Lots of new and familiar faces.

Hyperdimension Neptunia V, the third game in Compile Heart's PS3 series, brings back characters familar to fans of the series and of course, some new ones. The title, which harkens back to the 1980s era, will feature Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2's Nepgear, Ram, Rom and others - and if you remember characters like IF-chan (Idea Factory in character form) and Compa-chan (Compile Heart), there are similar ones based on the likes of Marvelous AQL (Marvelous-chan) and.. well, whoever Broccoli-chan is.
You also get parodies of known game characters like Mario and King of all Cosmos, supposed jabs at big names in the Japanese game and game journalism industry, and an even more bizarre appearance by Keiji Inafune. And that's not getting into the new summons, other strange enemies and allies - and all the other kinds of damage you can do.
So after all that, here's the game's fourth trailer. Hyperdimension Neptunia V hits shelves in Japan on August 30th. When and if the title will be in English remains to be seen.
