Question about Ibara PS2 Taito Best release

Post by dementia »

Is this still coming out or is it in limbo due to Square-Enix's EAing of Taito?

The Play-Asia date changed from mid-January to "TBA" and I'm curious.

No, it's definitely cancelled. P-A.com is just hoping it will be released later, for some weird reason.

yup, NCSX has a bit about it. Apparently, not enough interest was generated when it was anounced.

Those full kits have just gotten even more desirable

Damn Tim, you know there are quite a few Americans out there who still lives in tents due to this shitty economy, and you're dropping loads on a single game which only last 20 min. Do you think it's fair? How much did you spend this time?

You're talking about the full factory Cave arcade PCB kits of Ibara, right?

And none of this filtered & interlaced Taito PS2 Ibara iteration... ^_~

:shock:

Glad I got mine while I had the chance.

Oh, how I wish I could log onto a company's website, paypal them some money, download an image, burn it to disk, and play away.

As it stands, I can do all of the above minus the paying anyone any money part.

So crazy. Good work, industry!
