Someone change the thread title to "Spring"

Looks like the Saturn version too with all the FMV in it.

Great news, I've been waiting to play this for years

Great news! Who needs expensive games, we just need great ones!

Wonderful; in truth it's the only game I miss from not having a Saturn any more, so this'll fill the gap nicely.

not necessarily. it's already dropped to a reasonable price level (around 100 Euro) because a digital release was long anticipated by fans. the demand might even increase due to the game getting more popular and - after all - this is just a digital release and might not please everyone.

i will keep my mint copy at least until it's clear how truthful the remake will be. also, selling it now with maybe hundrets of other panic-struck owners will surely drop the price even further!

This is great news....... I remember playing this like 5 years ago or something, at the house of someone I used to know, and he shelled out top skrilla for it. I was actually quite shocked at how much more I enjoyed it over Ikaruga (which I assumed would be a better alternative to the original). So it will be great to finally sink my teeth into this! Radient Silvergun, is a gem I should have picked up when it first came out on the Saturn, but I chose to get Guardian Heroes at the time. MEH! Oh well......... decisions decisions..........

You know, I collect videogames like everyone else in this forum but I can't really understand why someone should sell his/her games because their value might drop due to DLC.

Radiant Silvergun as a DLC is great news, but I really wish that Treasure will do a brand new shoot'em'up rather than re-releasing old games in HD or going the sequel way as they did in the previous years.

I agree, but will they ever do one on the PS3 or 360?

I, for one though, would kill for a Gradius V re-release!

PSN and XLBA, they both have their share of shooters; the X360 has been chosen by Cave for their releases. I don't know how many copies the US version of DeathSmiles sold, but the market is big enough to avoid a complete monetary failure.

Great! I never got to play this, so being able to pick it up cheap is awesome. I still think the "original" will be sought after for collectors though, as there is nothing like owning the original and playing it on the original hardware.
