No Leo?
The biggest unanswered question is where is the money? [1CCS]

border down would be better :D, R-Type = more likely

I forgot how fun they were to play, have been sneaking in 15 minutes here and there playing r-type 3 at work on my phone (SNES emu - and dont worry i own the originals) r-type 3 has some fantastic levels and some really difficult sections :D

Cool idea, but Leo needs to be there. I already got all the others (aside from III) to play on my PS2.
No matter how good a game is, somebody will always hate it. No matter how bad a game is, somebody will always love it.

I have added LEO to the update :) The main reason is for the portibility and the ability to grab a minute here or there on the move to slmowly cmoplete and otherwise quick game :)

I don't think there is any chance of anyone at IREM or SONY caring one way or the other about a petetion but I think you would stand more chance of sucess if you ommit Final from the package.

..i say enough with the goddamn re-release compilations already, strikers1945.. gunbird etc etc are bloody useless.. everyone who wanted to play them already have them, strikers and gunbird can already be played on PS2 anyway ffs!!

r-type LEO would be cool tho.. as is dragon blaze... and its a fucking crime not to have included pt3 on that strikers collection :evil:

I actually DON'T want a reason to buy a PSP. Then again, this compilation wouldn't be a reason for me to buy one, since I already have these games.

The cynic in me says no way will we ever see more than two shmups on one comp disc. There seems to be some unwritten law against it. :evil:

That said, a UMD with all R-TYPES including III and Leo, better yet, optimized for the PSP's widescreen would be great. Even if they did separate installements, as long as they gave us III and Leo perfectly converted I'd be happy.

Yeah, these are the only ones I'd really care to see ported myself.

Yes, I'd actually like Leo and Delta if I must absolutely be limited to two... I still hope that there will be a SNES emulator sometime so III will be taken care of (although I'd rather have Megadrive & PC-Engine emulators first)

I'd rather have a port of Border Down or Progear first.

R-Type III optimized for a widescreen? What, you want them to stretch out all the sprites?

Leo would be nice, really, but internet petitions mean zilch. Especially to Japanese companies.

I don't own, nor do I plan to own a PSP, so I'd rather see a comp. on the PS2 or something.

Unfortunately this is very true. Can anyone name a game petition that worked?

Man, R-type III runs great on the PSP. Cybernator and Axelay are totally playable, if a bit slow.

R-type III is a great game to run on emulators that do not run 100 % speed (yet)

Because it runs 30 FPS, I think

Like the SNES emu on the Dreamcast for instance!
