I don't know about others but Psyvariar MU/R has no music, more input lag than on other emulators, and impressively bad rendering.

True, still not as bad as mame with the right settings.

And what about Demul emulating naomi version?
That option is only available for Psyvariar 2, that game is very playable performance-wise on Demul or NullDC, it just has some ugly glitches, including one where display priority gets broken and bullets appear behind enemies, also one where your buzz radius display becomes a transparency mask or something, overall you could still make an (ugly) superplay with Psyvariar 2 and NullDC, but I don't like that game anywhere near as much as Revision.

Cuz that would be great :)
Love me some revision.
Had a mess with this last night. Pretty sweet :)
It's probably worth keeping an eye on ore808's twitter for hints of this, he posted development pics of reassemble before any details of what it was iirc.

^^^thanks man :D
edit: regarding mame emu, I have only miserable memories of emulating psy on ps2. And yeah the tunes in psyvariar revision is an equal selling point as the gameplay for me, so no music = no buzz (excuse the pun haha)

I think eschatos and the mushi games are the only games on the same level as the soundtrack on revision. I always choose the easy route just so I can buzz off the centipede and listen to that track.

I love the buzz of that centipede boss so much. Absolutely up there with my favourite shmup moments, it's just so fucking cool. Also the space level where you just shove your ship all over the enemies and level up for the whole stage. That Shit is just the kinda stuff that makes me love shmups so much.

I really hope they nail this new game with a steam release and it's even half as awesome as revision.

If that happens and so does ubusuna. I am a very very happy man, only gradius 6 developed by treasure can match that event for me haha.

Cmon success release a masterpiece sequel worthy of revision!!!! Do it!!!!

A proper Psyvariar release on PC would be such bliss. I pray to the powers above.

Wow, it's really gone. There's no single player or anything, just "error".

Yeah, the iOS port of PsyRE proceeds to do an update -- gets to about 80-90% downloading with the status bar readout and then get the dreaded "Error" message as well. Doesn't bode too well.

At least I've got my trusty Taito G-Cards of Psyvariar Medium Unit & Psyvariar Revision to play with on the G-Net motherboard setup indeed. I like how cool the G-Card of Psy-R already has a superplay of the final boss stored on it for posterity/to watch at my leisure. Can't get any better than that, folks.

From what I know it's the company of ore808, the main man behind the series.
And the project they do is some video streaming platform for east asia

I wonder if ore808 will ever do something game-related again

This game had really nice art, I hope this rumour is true.

Interesting !! Probably won't be able to play it of its console exclusive but this is still hype to see.

Hope Restoration doesn't have a bullshit criteria to reach the true final boss... If there is one. I just beat Psyvariar 1 and 2 about a month ago. Also, will the game be physical or digital?

I hope it's not gonna be a straight up port of the first two games. I'm hoping it's a new game.

Is Psyvariar 1 considered as good as 2? I've only briefly played the sequel on Dreamcast. I remember liking it, even if it was... strange.

I would say Revision is better than 2, whereas Medium unit is worse.

More or less general consensus indeed looks as follows, sometimes putting Psy 2 last even:

Psy Rev > Psy 2 > Psy Med Unit
