You can buy a JP360 arcade and just stick in your US HDD. Original Deathsmiles with proper slowdown, Ketsui, Deathsmiles 2, and DDPDF coming out. Don’t bother with DDPDOJBL, it’s fucked up
and a US hard drive works on a JP system?
If I hadn’t already had a JP slim before, I would have bought one the night they announced Dodonpachi Daifukkatsu for console release.
Suda 51 working on a new hori-shooter for PSN/XBLA. Features some sort of time dilation mechanic.
Grasshopper Manufacture Developing Shoot 'Em Up for XBLA, PSN
Hopefully, this slowing down time thing means he gets to put out twice the usual number of bullets at twice the speed.
Still playing Ketsui DS. Finally made it to DOOM on Very Hard mode and I cannot win! I barely lost any lives up until I fought Evaccanier and he wiped the floor with me, then DOOM finishes the job. ugh.
I wonder if we’ll ever get to play Radiant Silvergun. At this point I’d go for a remake if the game is too hard to port.
Thanks man! The current version is up on Stencyl for anyone that would like to try it out.
With all of the next Cave releases and Suda 51 hopping on the wagon, shooters are making a strong comeback.
Damn, the arcade version of Darius Burst is looking sexy. Some of the enemy patterns in that video remind me of TG16 Galaga.
Ugh, Espgaluda 2 is harder than any other Cave shooter I’ve played.
I tried to get it to work over here, but my computer is being a pain. I’ll try later when my brain is fully functioning.

More on DoDonpachi Resurrection
DOJBL on 360 really isn’t that bad IMO. The only real problem I have with it are the loading times on the menus. In game has like 2 seconds of loading between levels, I think I can deal with that.
Anyways, I’m personally quite excited to pick up DDP Resurrection for my iPhone. I have Espgaluda II on it, and it controls wonderfully and makes for a great on-the-go shooter fix. Come on Thursday…
Bouncing around the various Parodius games. Konami was clearly on acid when they made these games. Oh and I love how the Super Famicom versions let you turn off that stupid roulette. That thing screws me more often than not. And man is the music from these games AWESOME. Whacky remixes of classic tunes FTW.
I know some of you have already played the goodness that is Soldner x-2, but I just started getting into it hardcore. Not too bad. I like how the difficulty raises or lowers depending on how well you’re playing. Finding those secret keys is a pain right now, but that’s part of the deal. Gotta unlock the extra stuff now.

Yeah, I like being able to switch weapons on the fly. Getting a real Vic Viper vibe from the Mexxus II. Otherwise nothing remarkable about the game. But it is fun & more than competent, especially since there’s not much else to choose from on PS3. Hopefully the Suda 51 game does well on PS3 and encourages more devs to go multiplat.

As long as you can still use your music to generate levels this game should be the shit all over again.
Looks like dodonpachi resurrection recieved an update. The damn thing is 500 mb for the whole thing now from what people on twitter were saying.
Took a quick glance at Major Nelson, they had a list out for up and coming updates for xbla and I didn’t see Guwange in that entire list through October 20th. Surely he would have mentioned something if it was coming out in that time frame. Disappointed!
OMFG YES. Love this game, and I don’t know if I’ll ever get tired of it. Unless it’s EXACTLY the same as the previous game lol
Well at least this way it’ll be easier to share levels
Yeah… yeah! Raki we can play co-op!
BACON AND SHOTGUN SHELL HIGH FIVE!!!
On the real, this game should be the shit. It was, the shit, on the DS. Now, with no cumbersome controls (I’m assuming it’s going to be twin stick with the shoulder buttons and triggers for attacking and dodging.) and easily traded levels and easy to do multiplayer…maaaaaaaaaaan. Treasure blindsided us.
EDIT: OH MY GOD! No multiplayer? Treasure…c’mon.
EDIT 2: Damn. No baseball bat or sword? I mean yeah they were kinda pointless but it was still cool to have. I hope Treasure has plans for dlc.
