V6

[TamagirlE101]

Are they coming out with a V6 any time soon????

 

[binary]

No.

Generally, English-language versions are based on Japanese versions, but come out several months after the Japanese version does.

Current status

The English-language V5 came out in Jan/Feb 2008.

The Japanese equivalent of the V5.5 came out today (March 29) in Japan.

Bandai has said the English-language V5.5 will come out sometime this summer (July maybe.)

Future?

Looking back, at Japanse version release dates, you can see a pattern of two releases per year.

2004/ 3/20 Plus (similar to Connection V1 & V2)

2004/11/23 KeiTama (roughly similar to Connection V3)

2005/ 7/23 KeiTama Akai-series

2005/11/23 EnTama (similar to Connection V4)

2006/ 7/22 UraTama (similar to Connection V4.5)

2006/11/23 Suku

2007/ 2/24 Suku2

2007/11/23 FamiTama (equivalent to Connection V5)

2008/ 3/29 RoyalFamiTama (equivalent to Connection V5.5)

If this pattern continues, we might see a new Japanese version being released on 2008/11/23, and the English-language equivalent of it Jan/Feb 2009.
