DoDonPachi Saidaioujou coming to Xbox 360 (REGION-FREE!)

[e_tank]

psh, i knew it

[hwl]

Mushi HD & SDOJ PAL ports please!11111

[BPzeBanshee]

psh, i knew it

Beat you by a few months.

Glad to hear it's getting a port after all, regardless of whether it ends up region-free or Japan-only with hopeful region releases later down the track.

[Op Intensify]

It'll be region locked. Microsoft Japan doesn't allow region-free games anymore, and Cave will want to keep the possibility of an overseas release through Rising Star open.

[matrigs]

not to start a anti-piracy-whatever discussion here but is it really that immoral to jtag / reset glitch hack a ntsc-u / pal console to make it region free and still buy the original games ?

i mean in case you really want to play the game and buy the original.

[trap15]

I don't think there's any question that hacking a console for region-free and still buying the games is ethical.

Second part seems legit, but just to make sure you're not honouring your bad habit of construing hearsay again, I believe you're referring to something G.Rev mentioned about it on Facebook?

EDIT: There we go, took a few pages filtering you talking about the 'ban' to find it though: http://www.facebook.com/notes/grev-ltd/ ... 4294252251
Doesn't exactly sound like a 'Microsoft Japan stopped us' sentence to me, but I digress. They'll want Rising Star to give them extra sales via America/UK distribution methinks which is probably the best way to go at this stage.

On another note I really thank the people out there who bought the PCB and played the game in the arcades relentlessly and thus supported CAVE and made this miracle happen.

This is fully acceptable! It is your console and you can do with it whatever you want. And let noone tell you anything else. And by buying the original copies of the game you are doing the best thing you can do: supporting the developers directly by giving them money. It's not your fault retarded and discriminating region "protection" is out there. But as always you have to consider the risks of hacking/Jtagging/etc. for yourself.

And here... we... go.

Interested to see what they do for an Arrange Mode... sadly, Extra Doll D will not be some revamp of Piper.

Same on this side... but considering that all of the new element dolls are completely different from the Dai Ou Jou ones, it's not surprising.

Anyway... a short hair one... wonder what kind of voice she will get

PD: Do you guys think that the PCB sold that well that only after 3 months they have already made a decent profit from it?

Best news I've ever received while sitting on the can.

I would be much more excited if I didnt have to wait till 2013 though =[

[SuperSoaker360]

Best news I've ever received while sitting on the can.

I bet you had one hell of a time in the shitter after hearing about it.

Doll D will be a loli, I can feel it.

You already have an schoolgirl-swimsuit character... God, this reminds me when we were all speculating about the element dolls when SaiDaiOuJou was announced.

We will probably get a middle schooler with Seerafuku (?)

im laughing......but I know you're right...

[KAI]

New Soundtrack, please.

[Illyrian]

I am forced to eat my words regarding the chances of this getting ported.

Can't really blame me, though, all the evidence from Cave was pointing against it. Perhaps the Vita project was the sacrificial lamb needed to get this out.

If someone at Rising Star wants to localize this, though...the higher-ups are probably going to say "the last two games from this company sold like shit, we're not going to give them another chance."

I guess you were wrong, eh Estebang?

Unsurprisingly, the amount of new posts in the STGT ESPGALUDA thread is much lower since the creation of this thread. Less F5 people, more Kakusei!

It's still friday... let the people who writes from their work get to their houses and have some free time on the weekend.

[Kollision]

My body will be ready.

[ReSe2k]

These are really great news!

[trap15]

tbh, kinda looks like Exy to me.

[O. Van Bruce]

We have 2 options then...

[Zengeku3]

See that's some great news. That means I have till' Spring of 2013 to save up for a japanese 360. Shouldn't be too hard.

[kid aphex]

What? It's morning and the trailer hasn't been posted online yet?

[Jeneki]

Hmm, it'll probably be OVER NINE THOUSAND pennies with an arrange mode preorder only. But I'd take it. With a smile on my face.

[Tokyo-J]

We knew this was coming why act surprised?

Cave has nothing else to milk for money. Why not go out with a Bang?!

[Friendly]

Well, they could release a couple of shmup compilations for PS3

(I know it's not going to happen, but I for one would buy their games a second time, even though I already imported every 360 release).
