Ride this bitch 'till the wheels fall off D:

all hail the rise of Qute

They sure aren't any replacement for Cave.

I agree with you, Cave is unbeatable.
I just meant that if they indeed go under, by the looks of things Qute is likely to reign (at least) for a brief while.

Hey don't forget M-Kay who is going to be the next Ikeda-San. I wonder who'll play Asada's rol in Qute.
You know, someone has to take care of all the prop shit.

Qute and Cave merging on Summer as Quve

BELIEVE

[TrevHead (TVR)]

I would be gutted if CAVE went under, but then there would be a good chance that some of key staff members would form a new company from the ashes.

I've always felt that if CAVE could make it to the next gen and the Wii U they would have a good chance of reasonable sales selling to touchscreen users. Ninty need to get more consoles in homes for any of that to happen.

Anyway I'm expecting CAVE to drastically change their shmup design as they move away from arcade shmups in the new gen.

Imo the worst thing that would happen is for them to go exclusive to handhelds and phones, that would royally suck

Qute and Cave merging on Summer as Quve

If they drag Moss in with them, they could form M'Quve

[pestro87]

Looking forward to seeing a SDOJ matsuri version where every enemy says "DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DAAAA".

I personally wouldn't want to see Cave merge with Qute (or Moss for that matter) as I like the fact that each company has their own take on shmups. But if it comes down to either a merge or bankruptcy then I'd gladly welcome a merge.

Cave Matsuri Final, such a party pooper name.

Nah, Qu.Rev is where to put the money. Maybe cave might merge with 5pb? More seriously, g.rev and treasure should merge already and make more games (kokuga, strania are very treasure and have staff from both, etc.)

[GaijinPunch]

For those attending the event: don't forget to leave your dignity at home!

There is a fuck pillow that with a hole that leads to Ikeda's ass that is filled with the thoughts of Yagawa that have been thrown into the garbage repeatedly since Ibara.

Considering Ibara is the best cave game I'm going to have to say no.

I'd buy that just to intoxicate my mind with Yagawagite

All right, I think I know what's going to happen. Remember when this all occurs, you heard it from me first.

-CAVE holds the final Matsuri event.
-Every previous Matsuri game variant is available for play, as is DoDonPachi Special Version, revealing that they've always had the source code available for everything, ever.
-The final new Matsuri game is SaiDaiOuJou Arrange, which is incomprehensibly beautiful in its gameplay design, having ships similar to every CAVE game ever released, balanced so that all play styles somehow overlap without flaw for this one game.
-Asada will walk on stage afterwards and thank everyone for their support over the years.
-He will then reveal that he is carrying a wakizashi and that he will commit Sudoku.
-Ikeda and the other CAVE staff will then join him on stage, all of them carrying similar suicide gear.
-Yagawa will be the last staff member to walk on stage, offering to show the team how really to suicide.
-He will take off his jacket and reveal a grenade vest underneath. He will then pull all the pins connected by a string, screaming, "Banzai!"
-The grenades will then explode into confetti everywhere, with the rest of the staff following suit. Asada's wakizashi is made of licorice, Ikeda's handgun is actually a beer-loaded squirt gun, etc.
-Out of fucking nowhere, Hiroshi Iuchi descends from the ceiling with an entourage of luchadores, as well as Hard Gay.
-Various audience members will then tear off their faces, revealing that they were shmup developers in disguise. Every relevant company that is still alive is represented. Qute, Moss, Konami, Treasure, G.Rev, even some pseudo-defunct guys like IREM, Compile, and Eighting/Raizing. ZUN, Yotsubane, and other doujin staff are also represented.
-Asada then reveals that they've all been working in cahoots to determine what kinds of shooting games people actually like, diverging in multiple paths over the decades to create as much variety as possible.
-The Matsuri officially turns from a gaming event into a six-hour press conference detailing what everyone has been doing secretly.
-It is then revealed that Konami acquired and killed Hudson so that they could resurrect the company later and restart the once-glorious caravan concept, gathering all the shmup developers under one banner.
-Yagawa is working on another complex rank-based game, supported by the Eighting staff.
-Konami has Treasure and G.Rev building Gradius VI, specifically incorporating feedback from each game of the franchise.
-Moss reveals Raiden Fighters Neo, incorporating every ship variant from every Seibu Kaihatsu/Moss game, including KOF Sky Stage and Caladrius. The sheer number of ship and stage combinations is massive.
-Compile Heart reveals Sexy Aleste, which is like MUSHA with anime girls. Thankfully, the game includes "classic mode" which replaces all the moe anime shit with robots that have grotesque faces and radical nonsense like that, so that fans of both aesthetics have something to enjoy.
-Various other devs showcase their stuff, all of it looking remarkably solid.
-At the end Asada reveals that everyone has partnered with Sega to handle their new universal arcade system, who has funded it with all their pachinko money.
-The system is similar to Capcom's MT Framework, but designed for shmups specifically.
-Its porting platforms include PS3, 360, Wii U, 3DS, Vita, iPod devices, Android, PC, Linux, Mac, and damn near everything else, Facebook included.
-Sega also reveals that if you buy a physical copy of a game, you can play it on any device you own using a revolutionary card system. Each supported console has a corresponding adapter with a small but fair price. Think Skylanders minus the clunky toy interface.
-In short, if you can dream it, someone involved has found a way to implement it and make it profitable while also being affordable in one fell swoop.
-The press conference ends with Hard Gay yelling "Hoo!" and everyone riding motorcycles off into the sunset.

[AntiFritz]

And then we all woke up.

[KAI]

Bring Milestone 2 da party or GTFO.

-Yagawa will be the last staff member to walk on stage, offering to show the team how really to suicide.

True to himself til the end.

[Squire Grooktook]

I lost it reading that whole thing. Well done.

A man can dream, at least.

[trap15]

Crying manly tears of awesome.
