ddp blue label

Ha ha, not even Shoutime with a suitcase full of gold bars could make that happen.

[Giest118]

Every DDP.

DonPachi
DoDonPachi
DoDonPachi DaiOuJou
DoDonPachi Die Fuck Cats
DoDonPachi MAXIMUM
DoDonPachi SDOJ

and all arranges of all of them

window.ub.page.name = "Cave Announce DDP";

Seems like a lot of hoopla for the announcement of a port of an Instant Brain unlockable.

Someone uploaded a slowdown comparison of the Ice Palace between the PC and 360 version of Deathsmiles MBL:

Looks like the PC version is the way to go for speedrunners.

Hi Degica, you guys have sucked at communication and marketing since Blackbird left. Get your shit together, please.

Too perfect to be true.
I'll keep my butt clenched anyway.

Just watch, it's going to be DFK.

[pandoraXhunter]

Inb4 all our guesses and wishful thinkings turn out to be wrong and it turns out to be Maximum Steam port + Dodonpachi SaiDaifukkatsu

[GSK]

My guess would have been a DDP game (DFK with Ketsupachi) but since M2 has announced they'll be at the Cave Matsuri, I wonder if it's actually Futari.

Then again, Degica also announced they're bringing Koihime Enbu to PC, which M2 is also working on, so maybe they have a broader deal to work with M2 on more ports going forward... or maybe it's all a red herring.

I can recall seeing DDP played on a Vita on Cave's twitter a while ago. It wouldn't surprise me if they'll bring DDP as an emulated port on Steam along with one of the newer games.

edit: The tweet.

M2 does have a history of making emulators, and I believe they did the Guwange port, so bringing them up can't help but make me think of this...

I can recall seeing DDP played on a Vita on Cave's twitter a while ago.

That was just the "PSOne Classics" version from PSN being played, I think.

[ctr]

Ah yeah, it probably is. Their twitter also contains a bunch of random stuff so I guess trying to take hints from that isn't going to end up very well.

Just curious, in what way?

Something tells me Degica is going to port post-PGM CAVE games first since they are not perfectly emulateable on MAME.
My bets are on Ibara (Kuro)/Mushihimesama Futari/Akai Katana/DDP DFK
although I have a faint feeling it can be Espgaluda I

[Satan]

Anyone know what the game is being released on May 12th that Degica just Tweeted?

Ref Rain (RefRain?), a little chalkboard write-in just posted on that pic, lol. X3

[d3vak]

Akai Katana

[cave hermit]

I'm hoping for Ibara at some point (of course that will never happen ).

In all likelihood this will probably be DFK or SDOJ; I have a feeling cave is just doing games with existing 360 ports since they would require minimal work to port over to PC compared to doing a port from scratch.

DFK would be nice since they could make Ketsuipachi and Black label DLC much easier to get.

[EmperorIng]

SDOJ. I want to play a bright neon mess. I want to be there.

Voted DaiFuck, not because I want it, because I expect it.
I'm feeling they're releasing titles from 'series' that have had Android/iOS ports first, because they're assuming these are the ones better known in the west.
Galuda II would be my second bet.

Hoping for

Muchi Muchi Pork with better slowdown accuracy than the 360 release and separate leaderboards for 1.00 and 1.01

or

ESPGaluda II


Expecting

DoDonPachi Daifukkatsu

[KAI]

Hoping for:
New DDP

Expecting:
a bad port of DFK

[Bananamatic]

has DLC compared to sdoj
emulation still sucks
ketsuipachi is still region locked
doj port had some issues over stolen code I think?

there's a chance it's the instant brain DDP port but everyone has played DDP already

could be sdoj considering the recent ichimen bancho update and it's new, anime and stuff (and dfk already had a western release)
plus the 360 sdoj port sucks balls so there's a real incentive to buy it again

[Chaos Phoenixma]

I wouldn't want original DDP unless it contained the campaign version.

[Shepardus]

What Bananamatic said, also DFK has an iOS port so they can do their whole "retweet to make the iOS app free for a while" promotion again. DFK already had a western release, but that didn't stop Deathsmiles.
