Difference between Banshiryuu versions?

Post by Mischief Maker »

I recently picked up the Banshiryuu disc off Rancor's site and found that it has 3 different versions of the game, c67, c74, and version 3.00.

I remember hearing somewhere that c67 is better than c74. What are the reasons for that? Did 3.00 fix the problems from the c74 version?

An oligarch walks in and grabs nine cookies for himself.

Then he says to the white dude "Watch out for that black dude, he wants a piece of your cookie!"

There's a new disc with 1.0, 2.0, and 3.0? I thought 3.0 was just a bug fix.

There are a ton of aesthetic changes, but v2.0 also changes how the game is played; specifically, you now have even more reason to abuse your bomb stock. I don't know what because I don't really care about this game. LtC can tell you more.

The C67 and C74 versions are pretty much completely different games.

C67 version is more solid game and imo better although C74 has pretty cool Extra stage. From what I remember the older version is more clear with visuals while the newer version has parts that seem like a complete mess.
