Here's hoping another option to use GameCube/Classic Controller.

I don't get much of the title but by the looks of the screenshots this could potentially be like Protöthea for Wiiware (or how to destroy a PC Xevious clone in one single port).

So is this supposed to be a japanese development? Please enlighten me, I'm confused.

Yukes development with High-Voltage's support, I guess. No descriptions about the relationship between the two companies yet.

I still don't know if I can trust this rising developer, High Voltage. I'm still waiting on The Conduit. Didn't they also develop that tempest game, Gyrostarr? Was that any good?
Of course, that's just an opinion.

I think just about all the High Voltage Wiiware games have been crap so far and I doubt this will be any different. I'm still looking forward to The Conduit, though, but that's not exactly the same sort of "shooting game" we're talking about here, is it?

Well, we still don't know yet what part Yukes has in this game development. For all we know they're just borrowing High-Voltage's graphical engine just to make sure it looks impressive.
