So I was away from this forum for awhile and had no idea until today that Dangun Feveron was even on the PS4. Can anybody give me some help finding it with the Japanese interface? I can read zero Japanese. Usually I just blindly stumble through the store until I see the thumbnail of the game's cover art, but in this case I have no idea what to look for.

Is this what the icon and/or text will look like?

Yes, that's what the cover art and name look like on PS4. I'm not sure what would be the best way to find it via the PS4 store app's navigation, though.

If you have enough money in your PSN wallet, I think you should be able to buy it via the web store as long as you log in with your Japanese account: https://store.playstation.com/ja-jp/pro ... FEVERONPS4

Assuming you've gone through the hassle of making a Japanese PSN account, use a PC/Mac to access the store through Google Chrome and just enable the translate options at the top of each appropriate webpage. I do this to shop the Japanese PSN store all the time and it makes cruising through it almost as simple as the USA version.

Again I'm assuming you have a JPN account... AND of course that you are familiar with obtaining yen in your wallet by buying PSN cards from Play-Asia or wherever.

Thanks for the help. I got it to work. Using the website would certainly be the easier route. Unfortunately, I didn't know how to customize my language settings without going through the English site first, and once I was logged into the English site, the Japanese one kept reverting to my English log-in and I couldn't change the language settings. But after a few thrown controllers and choice words, I've got Dangun Feveron.

If only I knew how to disco.

Dangun Feveron's coming to XB1 on April 4, in Japan and internationally (the same countries as Garegga, I presume).

The PS4 version's getting an international release as well--maybe same-day, maybe a little later.

edit: same day for both, $34.99

I've never been a huge Feveron fan, but this is welcome news. Now, they just need to port Batrider to consoles and I'll be able to die happy.

I hope they release a physical version like they did Battle Garegga.

Good news in regards to the international release. I'll definitely be picking it up.

Yes, that & Bakraid.
Wouldn't mind seeing M2 make something of the Aleste series later. Super Aleste is one of my favorites on SNES.
Kinect? KIN NOT.

How "international" can it be when the price is $ only... :?

At the very least, it'll launch in the US/Canada/Mexico and a few other countries like Germany, Hong Kong, etc.

They know from the Garegga release that there's a big demand from countries that weren't covered, like France and Brazil, but I don't know if Feveron will launch there.

Either way, buying out-of-region games on both PS4 and XB1 is not terribly difficult.

I cannot understand the pricing on this. It's insane. People would balk at a physical copy of this game, at that price.

I bought the JP version, and I'll probably buy this one too (gotta support the troops), but that price...who in the hell other than US are going to buy this?!

I doubt many more would be interested in it even if the price were lower. Probably better business for them to try to make more money off the small audience they can count on.

I guess the release is aimed at the hardcore fans only. It also seems like contrary to the Sega 3D classics the M2 Shottriggers series is completely financed out of M2's pocket.
Let's be honest, the price really doesn't matter here...hardcore Cave fans would buy even at twice the price while the ordinary gamer - with a certain interest in arcade style gaming - won't see the reason why he/she should buy this over Nex machina, even at half the price.

What’s the chances that the Japanese PS4 release will be updated to include English text similarly to what happened with Raiden V on Xbox One?
I may double dip Dangun just to get English menus.

That didn't happen to Garegga, so I probably wouldn't count on it.

$35 is a reasonable price point for a digital game.

More like $35 is reasonable for a port done by M2. I would never even consider spending this much money for a digital-only game by other companies.

Those of you unhappy about the price, and planning on buying via PS4, do this:

1. go to live.playstation.com
2. sign in to your playstation account via that page
3. click on the quest that'll give you a 20% off coupon for watching the Far Cry 5 trailer
4. watch the game trailer to get the coupon
5. this coupon can't be used for preorders, but is good until the end of April.
6. use the coupon to buy Dangun Feveron on 4/4.
7. $$$

That, and the ordinary gamer isn't even buying Nex Machina which shows the sad state of affairs "arcade" style games are in right now. The hardcore fans need to suck it up and deal with the prices, or wait for a sale.

Yeah, any other developer and I'd be like "man, $35 for a cash-in port." With M2 I know they're invested in each game and won't go halfway. I mean, I'd probably still buy an expensive port of Battle Garegga, but probably not most other games. It's kind of the rare exception of "holy shit, somebody ported Battle Garegga?"

Still haven't gotten Dangun, but I intend to... at some point. The fact that I haven't yet is bizarre, considering I have a whole rack of Cave 360 STGs.

There's no official soundtrack release, but the game has a built-in music player, so...you could get creative if you really wanted.

The launching rocket in the bottom right corner is a nice touch. Hoping for a physical release, even if it ends up being LGR or something like that.

I hate to say this, but conditioning for digital/retro downloads to be $5 or max $10 started all the way back at the beginning of the Xbox 360 generation. Even as part of the target audience I have a hard time accepting this kind of pricing.
