I just played trace memory for the first time and

[shadowboy]

My birthday is the same as that of Ashley Robbins. July 15th, 1991. Even the year is the same.

What are the odds of that date being chosen out of all the possible dates they could have chosen?

Anyway, I was wondering if anyone else has had something like this happen with another game?

My birthday is Girl's Day in Japan...does that count?

Actually the game uses your birthday information from your DS

Ashley is also born on the same day as me

:/ You ruined the magic opium.
I feel stupid, curse trace memory!
Still, love the game, and that is a neat idea that they added that.

Well, in my case, the "girl" is 25 years old...

I'm thinking maybe, just maybe, they could have adjusted the looks according to age, because that was one underdeveloped 25-year-old, I'll tell you that

 

[shadowboy]

Haha, I just stated a new ne on my DS Lite, and she's like 93, cause I didn't put my real info in my DSL XD.

That is a flaw though, and the fact that it still says she is 13 going on fourteen no matter what her birthday is XD.

 

[iori-kyo-k]

Yeah, too bad the didn't implement some kinda fun sentences about her age if it really is strange for her looking.

"93 ?!? But you just look like a teenager ready to wear a bunny suit !".

This kinda...but more funny ok

(Sensible answer) They should've left the year out
(Fun answer) ...but it's more fun this way

Mmm... if I recall correctly, the girl is always around 13 or 15 in the game. Only the day and month change depending on your birthday...

Yep, she's always born in 1991, but the birth month and day are yours. They also were smart to use an island where the climate temperatures / seasons don't change much, even if you were born during the winter or so.

So essentially, the storyline always takes place in 2005 (a day before your technical 14th 'birthday').

You were born on July 15th? I was born on July 14th!
