I doubt this'll make PCB prices for the games go down significantly. Everyone thought the same would happen to Ketsui, but it still goes for around the same price now as it did before the port was released.
Unfortunately it's taken a bit of a hit actually. Probably not anything write home about, but still there.
I'm expecting the Pork to fall though, it's been at $DUMB.00 for a while now.

I really want to try these next year!
It's not too bad. With a Japan Xbox and a few used japan 360 games you'll probably be around $500. Some of these games by themselves go for that much in PCB form o.o
the announcement for this year is mind blowing ...
so many great games in the next 6months !
cant wait for it
@indutrial
if you know someone who is taking a vacation in asia/japan you can get one pretty cheap ...
my parents went to hong kong before the 360 slim was announced and i got a new one for less than 200us$ (msrp)
now you can get them for 150us$ msrp (360 arcade phat) or 200$ for the arcade slim ...
if you have to use a domestic import shop you are looking for at least 300us$ without shipping for the console alone (this is a rip off but for most persons the only possible solution)
and if you want to import it from asia/japan you have to pay at least 100$ shipping + tax + customs.
Heh, I feel the opposite, though a friend of mine is pretty hyped for MMP. I've wanted Pink Sweets for a long-ass time though, especially since I loved Ibara.

Don't get me wrong -- I'm planning to buy them because they probably are actually great... I just have no idea why...
Aside from the fact that they are arguably both great games that nobody expected to see ported? Also aside from the fact that relatively few have played them and the kits don't grow on trees.. Nothing special at all.

Great news, but the only thing I'm not too impressed with is the cover art, especially MMP/PS's is a hot-pink mess, but also DDP DFK's... wish it were just the kanji, or something less loli. Can only pray for better art on the limited editions... otherwise, I'd have to explain to anyone finding these in my collection that they're not hentai dating sims, and they'd be like 'yeah...right, you dirty perv!'.... sigh

I dont think these are the cover arts just some temporary draft I mean come on...

Umm where do you see me saying they are/could be temporary? They look final to me, thats why I mentioned the Limited Editions. Cave usually has alternate covers for their LEs with a few exceptions, and are on a streak this gen with releasing LEs.

I know that these are the arcade posters but was there not some 2nd version or something the Daifukkatsu one imo is one of the most unimaginative bland arcade poster I have ever laid my eyes on.
I'm mostly looking forward to DFK, but the other announcements are good to hear. MMP and PS were inevitable, like I've always said.
Feveron also has my interest as an XBLA release. I'm pretty surprised that they rolled out so many announcements at once, I mean, considering the first Cave game to be released on 360s was only last year.
So, by the screenshots, Guwange looks to be done by M2, so I'm willing to bet that Feveron will be too. We haven't heard from M2 since Futari, and I had a hunch that they were working on something Cave related. I get the feeling that MMP/PS will be Asada and Yagawa directed, following the same styles as Galuda II and Deathsmiles. Does anyone know who DFK's port is being worked on?
U crazy, DFK art is the Bomb - mechanized floating limbs + schoolgirl uniform = win
besides, the whole "explaining these games to friends arguement" is pathetic - when my friends look at my games they simply ask "get any new shooters lately?" I've been importing games from japan since genesis era and watching anime since before that - I have no shame about the kinds of shit I am into, robot babes who transform and blow shit up are absolutely a-ok in my book!

Some idiot friend: *pointing at DFK* "wtf is that?"
Me: "It's a shmup."
SIF: "A hentai shmup?"
Me: "No! You've got it wrong! Let me prove you wrong!" (1 stage later...)
SIF: "So where's the hentai?"
Me: "There isn't any."
SIF: "Yeah right, you sick fuck."
Me: "IMA DA! HIROW!" *boom*
Lets say merely hypothetically that Dai fukkatsu gets released in PAL/USA it will be called DoDonpachi ressurection probably am I the only one who pretty much foresees this scenario all over the damn place
"Some discussion about Dai fukkatsu"
"What is Dodopachi dai fukkatsu you mean Ressurection right?"
This shit will continue forever proven with TurboGrafx/PC ENGINE, MEGA DRIVE/GENESIS etc

Well "Resurrection" is just the English translation. I doubt they will release the X360 version outside of Japan so you don't have to worry about that. Only for the iPhone users.
What about if Mushihimesama got released in USA? It would be called "Insect Princess". That's certainly alot worse than "Resurrection"
