That really wasn't a Die Hard though, now was it? One could argue the same thing about Daifukkatsu not being a Dodonpachi... other than the chaining.

There's nothing like a good mix of slow pink bullets & butch men in dirty vests

Don't mean to be asking any questions that may have been answered already, but...

Anyone know if this will be getting a console port ?

It's barely even finished, wait at least a year before asking for a port.

Good thing there's a Phoenix mod so that when the suicide battery in your Japanese 3DO dies you can revive it.

that's great news, my friend sent her 3DO to MS and they phoenixed it for her for free.

the 3DO version loads better, but the CD-i version has better explosion effects

i'd rather play the Death Smiles port to come on Pippin.

True, but if you can't afford either of those versions I highly recommend going with regular old Donpachi for the Casio Loopy. The d-pad is close to the quality of an SS controller which makes easier getting those higher chains.

The Grandstand port will have the edge - utilizing two panels at once will be the ultimate Pachi-Etch-a-sketch Danmaku experience.

yeah, but undamned, asking PC Engine Fan X! not to wink is like telling a kitten to not be adorable and actually expect results.

This may have been posted already so apologies etc...

I was in Mak the other day and they said the DDP5 is due to be the last SH3 board to come out of Cave. After that they are moving to a new board. The board is going to be 15hz (or is it khz?) anyway Low Res.

I tried to ascertain if there would be more pixels on screen but this was lost in translation. They did not know if it was a sequel or original game.

Oh finally! They're moving from 10 year old hardware to, like, 8 year old hardware. :D

9 year old if they move to the SH4

Nice scoop Will. You know I was wondering if the time was near because loke test reports say DFK has a lot of slow down. It sounds as if they've pushed the bullet count to SH-3's limit.

Interesting that they still dont fancy high res. Everyone else is moving on to HD

Doesn't bother me though.

moozooh · Post by **moozooh** » Mon Apr 07, 2008 11:37 am

They've pushed it past the limit back in Mushi Futari. Watch any superplay, almost all the bullet-heavy patterns slow the game down to 30 fps (20 fps in Futari BL's God mode when the screen is covered in numbers after successful bullet canceling).
