**This review is for the "Day One Edition" itself. Not for the damage that occurred during shipping**
tl;dr - Fun visual novels, cool packaging & pins. Support official releases, weebs!
Well, what can I say... If you're familiar with the Science Adventure series, you'll probably already know how you're going to feel about these Visual Novels.
It's great to see these finally released officially in the west. I'm sure a lot of you have already played the original R;N through less legit methods, like myself, but wanted to show your support. That way we can get more/quicker releases in the future(For example, just look at the simultaneous release of the Haruhi Suzumiya LN in JPN & USA.)
Anyways, the packaging looks awesome, the pins look really good (minus the shipping damage *SEE PICTURE** but that'll be fixed easily with some 5 Second Nail Glue.) Haven't personally played DASH yet, but the original game was very fun & I'm looking for to playing R;N Elite.

An excellent addition to the SciAdv series, Robotics;Notes Elite is really fun
Reviewed in the United States on 23 February 2021
As someone who has played steins;gate elite, steins;gate 0, and chaos;child I have to say the robotics;notes combo is excellent. It took me around a week to finish elite and I really enjoyed the endings, the coolest thing is they’re all canon and fall into a linear fashion. The music is fire and it’s got a great slice of life feel until the committee of 300 get involved, and it branches in a direction I did not expect (in a good way). I’d say elite is just as good as S;G or C;C.Reviewed in the United States on 23 February 2021
Now onto robotics;notes DaSH, this one had such a different vibe it really caught me off guard. It’s got a fan service Daru vibe going on for some of the routes, there were a lot of funny moments. I haven’t laughed as hard through any of the SciAdv games as I have DaSH. Just know it has more of a lighthearted feel to it. The endings aren’t linear like elite and some are hit or miss, but mostly hit. Some routes felt kind of satire in DaSH but I still enjoyed myself a lot even though they didn’t have a serious save the world vibe. All in all it’s worth the play, and I enjoyed seeing Nae and Daru interacting with the R;N crew.
I’d say it’s a 10/10 for R;N Elite and an 9/10 for DaSH. If you enjoyed any of the SciAdv VN, you’ll enjoy these as well. For those not acquainted with the SciAdv series I’d say elite is still playable as your first entry, DaSH has a lot of S;G references so it’s best enjoyed after having experienced the S;G VN or at least the anime. Highly recommended.
I won’t spoil the ending, but the ending makes for an exciting future, and if you’ve ever wondered “why is Daru involved with these robot club kids? Why couldn’t they just keep the focus on the regulars in R;N?” You’ll know what they were going for by the end of the final phase.
If you purchase it on PS4 it comes with one disc for both games. And it didn’t come with the pins as it’s been so long since release, but to be fair I wasn’t expecting any. Support the official release so we get more!

The pin box is annoying
Reviewed in the United States on 25 October 2020
Ok, first off, never played these games but I am excited to play these games. That's why I gave the item four stars but there two things that hold it back from five stars and that is the fact that neither of the games can collect gold points for you Nintendo account (this part I don't mind too much) and whoever created this pin box must love annoying people because it's so frustrating to get these pins out without harming the box, this part really annoys me. Oh yeah just mention both games come on the cartridge.
