Finally arcade-perfect on console, only took three decades! :o For anyone who is stuck in Britfordshire, make a Japanese PSN account and get on that! It sounds crazy not to do this, I know, but I have seen chaps on other forums complaining "WHERES MY BUBBLE BOBBLE" :shock: It's on Japanese PSN you frickin noobs! Do like Vigilante by IREM says and take the law into your own hands!
Huh, you don't need a Japanese account to get BB. Or did they remove it in the west due to the upcoming game?
Speaking of that.... (jumping to appropriate thread)

Oh yeah, it is on there - I must've been looking at some old posts. :o Seems Ninja Spirit's still off the table though. Lots of missing stuff. :sad: I know somebody was in a huff specifically about getting cucked by Water Ski, while another admonished him saying that Water Ski is a fine and worthy inclusion! I remember because until the ACA release, I didn't know WTF Water Ski even was! Makes me want to try it out! Image

One small thing i really hate :
The "save replay" has no time out.
It keeps asking save replay, else you have to automaticly overwrite a replay,
even when all replays are locked, it is still overwriting ?

Normally if i cant win i throw away the controller, and let the attract mode run, not on PS4.
I dont want to overwrite all the time.
The overwriting goes faster then canceling the overwrite, sometimes i think the PS4 is hanging crashed,
i dont know why saving score would take that long.

Very expensive version. I'm happy with my humble copy for PS3.

Awesome port as others note, although it drives me insane every time I'm doing practice stages and die, because the rewind function is basically useless. If your death was simply caused by a failed dodge, there's no reason to repeat because the problem will fix itself as your practice. If it was caused by a poor path through the level, odds are rewind won't take you back far enough. Especially in the later levels it's very jarring, and the animation is prone to get on your nerves.

That said, it's just a small thing. I like the global leaderboards here, they'll be fun to try and climb like I did in Ikaruga. Currently #769 with my death at the stage 4 boss, I wonder how high I could get. Non-Japanese are pretty rare on the leaderboards but it shouldn't be a surprise.

??? I paid $40 for it on Play-Asia.com. I'd say that's more than fair for such a solid port.

It's back up to $64 or so on Play-Asia right now. About the same on eBay. I wouldn't call it "very expensive", but yeah, it's probably more than some want to pay when they already have a version of the game.

Yes very expensive, worth the money, i can not get past the 3rd boss yet, i need to practice more.
You know if more people buy they will release more games faster, also worth something.
You tell me any better game for PS4 ???, its not there.

I hope they release donpachi and dodonpachi all versions on 1 physical disc!!!
I dont like waiting.

That would be awesome but I don't see it happening sadly. A port of SaiDaiOuJou would be my dream personally.

Also as of now I can get to stage 4 on one continue without much trouble. The full-powered way shot makes things a lot easier when it comes to huge crowds, so the difficulty mainly lies with the stage 4 boss for me right now. I love the infinite re-playability this game has.

I bought the digital version from Japanese PSN, and thats only 35$ or so.
No need to switch disks between games is good.

You need to make a japanese account, but then it works on your other accounts too.

As i read somewhere in this forum, that person told :
Imaging you have all your games for saturn digital downloads,
the servers would be offline, and your 35,- is gone.
