Cave titles confirmed for 360

[Super Monkey Balls]

Crikey. Didn't realise the Death Smiles port was being done by Cave themselves! I am super-hyped for that.

[Geezer]

It looks great, I'm glad to see so much effort going into the graphics.
Btw, from what I can make out via a translator tool the blog mentions they showed the limited edition to Microsoft recently, so hopefully they will confirm its contents soon.

I want a release date right now.

GAH, all these CAVE Shmups. Christmas can't come soon enough. I've decided i'm going to get JPN 360 for chrimbo.

I have a question. I know this isn't the right place to ask this but is the Ketsui Death Label on the DS just a boss battle only game?

Yes it is.
It's basically a High Score game.

Not played it yet but I'm dying too

That new Death Smiles character selcet looks awesome.
I think I am in love with Casper

Loli characters FTW

Odds of these being region free?

I don't much fancy the idea of luging a Jap 360 back in my hand luggage next February!

[Geezer]

Little to no chance of them being region free. However the 5pb guy mentioned them possibly being released in the west at the TFVI/DOJBL event.

Pretty muc zero I'd expect.

I dont think most publishers see there being a market for anything 2D anymore that isnt on a copilation of classics or on the Live/PSN store.

It's a shame but to be fair I wouldnt expect them to sell well even if they did...they just wont compete with the latest 3D malarky thats rammed down our throats every month.

EDIT - Just read that link Geezer posted, sounds hopeful then for western release.
Fingers crossed for you all...will be a shame if you do miss out on these titles.
