Ketsui X and Daioujou Black Label X - Ports for Xbox 360

[vercimber]

Please don't bite me, but for the hell of it, I asked NCS straight on whether they were aware of the fact that April 22 for Ketsui has been deemed "unconfirmed." In a nutshell, they said they were aware that Mihara had suggested this, but that, and I quote:

"Two of the largest Japanese software distributors started what they call "Re-orders" for the Xbox 360 version of Ketsui a few days ago and the date is listed as confirmed for April 22, 2010.

Unless the publisher changes the date again, the release dates from the distributors are generally solid and come from the publishers themselves. Vendors in Japan need time to gather together their preorder numbers and it's the duty of the publisher to ensure that their dates are accurate so that we and other sellers can begin accepting reservations."

Now, I KNOW that we need to take Mihara's, etc. word over NCS's, but I thought I'd post this so that everyone could gauge the vendor's perspective.

Preorded this, but will still wait like a crouching Guile if need be when April 22nd rolls around.

I'm considering 1. hacking my 360 2. selling it to buy a jap60 because I rrreally want to play Ketsui before I go out in a blaze of glory, ten-thousand miles an hour into the sun. It'll happen, trust me.

Something tells me the port's still going to be half-assed :/

[Special World]

Jesus god 5pb sucks ass.

Like holy lord.

Like goddamn.

Like fuck.

...Shit.

Don't be so pesimistic, trust in Mihara. You know he will never let down the fans

[TLB]

He let me down when he couldn't magic the Ketsui PS2 port into working.

There's a limit to what can be done: reason why we didn't get a full ketsui un DS but just a watered down (but still hard as hell) EVAC Industry. Unless you're willing to solder an extra bank of RAM to your PS2, that is.

[BIL]

If Mihara's involvement in the Ketsui port results in work of Arika's DOJ & Galuda PS2 port's standards, enough fucking said. Better a great port now than a compromised one back then.

well, probably the biggest "bug" ive seen in a cave port to date is when the screen freezes for a moment in mushi futari black label..forget 5pbs so called misnomers seems like people just jump on the "bad port" bandwagon sometimes.

HE'S NOT REALLY MAGIC

Hey, maybe is taking so long because 5PB are copying the code of the unreleased PS2 Ketsui port from Mihara
But this time around they won't be a plagiarism

They'll probably just write a PS2 emulator for the X360 and slap a "porting" mark over it.
Emulation of a porting... hmm.

+1

The biggest bug I've seen in a CAVE port so far is that level 4 boss in Futari. It's an angry one as well.

new sofmap preorder slips for Ketsui ltd edition have 22nd April date.

Doesn't confirm things per se and things could obviously still slip , but i'd assume they get the same distribution notifications as NCSX.

[Kron]

Play-Asia have just updated with the April 22nd date as well, Maybe Mihara is the one out of the LOOP

[Udderdude]

It's a distribution date, required for taking preorders. It can change at any moment. Don't expect it to stay that date forever.

They've had it up for pre-order for over a year now and its gone through 3 different stages. You've been able to order it from there even with the date as tba.

[Phellan Wolf]

I think that Mihara just wants to be center of attraction. You know, he is god and nobody can be like him

[Udderdude]

I think that Mihara ... he is god and nobody can be like him

[drunkninja24]

Yeah, I went ahead and preordered the LE from NCSX. We'll see what happens to that date in the near future, I suppose I've been waiting for this one a long time, I guess I can go a little longer.

I've only played the PS2 port, so I couldn't make it out to be a bug.

Heh, the first time I played Futari on Original, my first reaction was, "Oh, so that's what I'm shooting at!".

Maniac and Ultra just cover the screen with so many shots, you can't even see under it (Or pay attention to anything else!)

WTF, MAN!? This is OLD news. *shakes fist*

Edit: Ran DOJ-BLEX a bit today as to see if there was any patching to do, but alas no. Also downloaded an X-Mode replay that I couldn't playback properly.
