Such an early port tells me that things are not all well at Cave HQ.

As the thread title refers to "titles", Cave also announce Nin2-Ninja for XBLA, a platformer.



Peculiar art style, explosions and bonus collection reminds me of Bangai-Oh, though it doesn't look as shooty as Treasure's own.

[edit]Oh, and there's Instant Brain, an adventure game for an unannounced platform, probably with an online element.



Charades is by Iruma Kamiri, better known for his work in the doujin circle Hellabunna.
The game is scheduled for this year.

Absolutely loved the Golden Harvest inspired opening in that Nin2-Ninja video above!

Is Bangai-O on XBL? I don't want to have to set up the DC again to play it, that is a game I seriously enjoyed when it came out, although I didn't play it that much.

Bangai-o HD is coming soon...

Day one purchase! Looks a bit crazy, though...

I wish Sega would pick the right games to release online, though. Completely unrelated, but Daytona and Shadow Dancer are right up my alley.

[Zaki]

They should bundle progear in with katana

When is RSG meant to be hitting LIVE ?. Need to get some points ready for that and SC Pt 2

I don't think a date exists for RSG yet.

Good news about Akai Katana! Can see this being the new poster boy for the genre, what with it being HD, 16:9, and loli-free. I know it's a stupid thing to get excited about, but my word even the menus look delicious. My only concern is the one mentioned earlier; I have no idea what Cave have got up their sleeves next, but you can't help but feel there are some changes due in order to survive.

Death Smiles seems like a curious choice of iOS port too - I know many will buy it regardless (self included), but I can't help but think that what with every territory having access to the superior home version, it's a tough version to sell...

Also I scare myself - didn't realise until yesterday that I had 3 pre-orders for MMP/PS at 3 different retailers. I'm getting old

[InvisibleKid]

When is MMP/PS actually released? Anyone know?
(Also, my DFK 1.5 LE turned up today! W00t!)

Pretty sure it's out on Thursday 24th

Finally cracked the seal on my DDP: DFK last night & freaking love it!!!

I'd been rinsing the iPod version for ages & never really felt the need to whack it on the 360 but was bored last night & got fed up of having my arse handed to me by the CPU on SSFIV so fired it up & OMG it's even better than I'd hoped, just pure shooter joy & I don't even understand the score hook but it doesnt matter...it's just so much fun.

It's eclipsed everything else as my bestest shooter ever...so much so in fact I'm making it my mission to one day own a Cabinet & the PCB, it really is that awesome.

I keep a spreadsheet to remember which games and where I ordered/pre-ordered them...Play Asia is prepping MMP/PS, maybe it would have already shipped if yesterday they didn't tried to charge me exactly when my bank was updating their servers :P

[Soundwave]

My MMP/PS pack was preparing as well but I just realised I'd used a card that expired at the end of December...I'd been meaning to change it but forgot so you just reminded & I've updated the order so expect this will slow it down a bit now
