Sounds neat. It's nice how another game will be supporting the Arkanoid controller. The movement of the invaders being tied to the sound track sounds promising too. It makes sense since, in the original SI, the invaders movements were tied to the invader sounds.

I'm not sure if an Extreme form of Space Invaders could really be called Space Invaders.
Of course, that's just an opinion.

I'll buy it... if only because I'm a complete Space Invaders whore.
I dig the one thats already on the DS though. So... hopefully this one will be cool too.

Indeed. I thought it'd became Gaplus.
(but hey, looks cool and I'm sold to pretty much anything from Q)

IGN's impressions:

Sounds like this will be one very solid shmup for the DS!

I like the list at the bottom of the page for "popular games of this genera."
Of course, that's just an opinion.

Has it been confirmed that Q? is actually making this or is that just speculation at this point?

I'm guessing it could be a from a misunderstanding of that article that compared the visual style to Q?. I haven't heard anything solid about the game being designed by Q?.
