Sega Ages Panzer Dragoon...this is a joke, right?

I don't see them getting excited about selling 10 sets of games for $19.99.

They didn't put that many on the last Sega Classics Collection, and, unless that one was a total bomb over here, I don't see any reason why Sega wouldn't do another Collection.

And, at any rate, I'd still really like to hear some feedback on Sega Ages Memorial Selection.

By "the last Sega Classics Collection" you mean the only one?

Cos there were 10 games on that one.

Ok, my bad, but, again, I still don't see why Sega wouldn't put out another one, unless the first one sold terribly.

The bottom part says what I mentioned earlier in this thread, that he'd love to do the whole series if it were possible (IE, if sales were good enough and Sega gave the go ahead).

Well... his profile is wrong then. Play through Panzer Dragoon if you don't believe me.

Yukio Futatsugi was the "Director" for Panzer Dragoon and Panzer Dragoon Saga.

Tomohiro Kondo was the Producer for all 3 games (and probably PDMini as well), but he was only the "Director" for Zwei (he might have been the Director for Mini, I don't know).

I guess they should fire the editors at sega.jp then.

That stinks that you can only use the D-Pad for this game. Although, with a PS2 Saturn Controller, it might not be so bad.

Seems everyone likes the second game in the series a lot better. I actually really enjoyed Mini on a GG emulator, although, like most GG imports, it's next to impossible to track down.

At any rate, I wonder why Sega didn't give Zaxxon the Ages treatment? Perhaps because of all the other isometric shmups that have come out since then?

Right now, I'd kill for a Virta Cop 3 home port; I played a lot of it at Dave & Busters last night, and that game ROCKS!
