DOJ on PGM2

[sven666]

hey, big words deserve a tall order!

[lilmanjs]

I really would love to see some pics and vids of this. if its a DOJ2 then cool. DDP2 is really fun.

you should buy it and get the WR before anyone else starts playing

bam!!

he is never gonna live that down....its mentioned pretty much everytime he posts now

have at it folks. ya'll think you're so funny

I emailed IGS directly, asking why there was no info on their website. Here was their response:

"Sorry to postpond to update game information on our web site. I will inform related staff to keep this issue.
Reagrding to the most different feature between two versions is one easier game mode for beginner in PGM 2.
More game mode provide players to know our game soon. "

Given BL is easier than WL, maybe this should be considered Mega Black Wussy Label?

Mega black wussy label means I might get to see stage 6

I am 100% certain you will never reach stage 6.

Hmmm would like to see this running .

There's always Simulation Mode....

[neorichieb1971]

Googled this and its called Dodonpachi Dai ou jou Tamashi = Soul

Also rumours are starting to circulate that Ketsui might get the cart treatment. Perhaps thats worth $900

[Jockel]

To play a stage that doesn't exist?

[ncp]

maybe if you noobs were as good as SIN

Isn't SIN the guy that scored 2 Bil with both Expert ships?

It doesn't seem like you all realize that DOJ, Ketsui and ESPgaluda 1 were all on PGM1. They just weren't as carts. In fact, a reasoning for Bee Storm's existance is that Cave had IGS make a shmup for the PGM1 to get an example of how the hardware could perform. They found it good enough, and made some games for it, although not as cartridges.
The mere fact that it is on PGM2 means nothing aside from what hardware it is on. Considering IGS and Cave have some sort of relationship, I doubt IGS would produce another "Cave" game, since they would likely not want to piss off the people who helped them (though they are Taiwanese, so who knows )
Actually, there is no real information on the PGM2 available, as far as I've seen. So if someone does buy this, please take some high quality pics of the PGM2 board for me

Please tell me you're joking by thinking most people don't know this...

[Jockel]

Awesome, we have Kotaku editors at this board?

[Ganelon]

Uh, quite a few folks already have a PGM2 motherboard...

Just sounded like most people were associating IGS and PGM with Bee Storm and nothing else. Maybe they did and I just didn't know

Who? Getting some pictures of the board would be highly appreciated.

[Ganelon]

Me for one, but I don't plan on disassembling the plastic. You can find some external images here just by using the search functionality.

Understandable. External images don't really help, I was wanting to see pics of the board to get an idea of how much of a bitch it'd be to emulate See the CPU and sound chip(s), and if it's high enough quality: all the traces, and maybe figure out how it's all routed.
Understandable to not want to take disassemble it though, since I doubt they're cheap at all

[kernow]

Thats some skill just looking at a PCB and trying to emulate it, the graphics hardware is going to be custom for a start, you're going to have to actually buy one and then decap the chips or something.

[trap15]

Decapping is too much work. Very little in MAME was done with decapping, mostly MCUs were decapped.
Usually what is done is they look at the board to see what's on it and where it's all routed, and add that stuff. Then they write up a trojan or disassemble an existing software for it to try and probe out the information.
Just with a pic of the board, code can execute on the emulator. Sure, no graphics or sound, maybe not even input. But unencrypted code execution at least, which is a critical start to emulation

That & shmups feedback.

[system11]

Just received an advert for this - now $700 - has anyone tried it out yet?
