Karous to 3DS?

[Despatche]

For the record, Milestone is ex-Compile. They're also quite aggressive and they seem to be good at it; good for them. Last I checked, k.h.d.n. also worked for Compile shortly before their closure.

Nobody remember Vertical Force on the Virtual Boy?

I used to have that, it was alright, though a bit too red for my taste.

The depth effect was fairly good though.

But not nearly as good as my beloved 3DS

Oh god yes, a Rayforce remake on this thing, that would be the port ever

Hey Milestone, how about a new game?

[Zeether]

I'd like to see this come out here, but given the track record for Milestone shmups here...it's probably not gonna happen. And on a region locked system no less.

Unless we beg XSeed.

Oh my god this is amazing.

I will be very sad if this doesn't show up on the NA 3DS eshop though :/ 3DS region lock is super lame.

G.Rev Talks About Senko No Ronde Sales, Making Kokuga And Under Defeat HD

For companies like us that only have a presence in Japan, releasing games abroad on our own was extremely difficult, if not impossible. The advent of being able to sell your game as a downloadable title has removed that roadblock. It terms of the difficulties we’ve faced, we had issues with the localization process and local laws and regulations. But despite that, we were somehow able to release the game.

Reading between the lines it seems to me that dividing the proceeds between a localizing publisher and the developer simply does not work for fringe titles in this day and age when publishers have enough higher volume titles to choose from. We'll have to see whether G.rev will declare the (almost) worldwide digital release of Kokuga a success and whether that will inspire SFL to attempt (and accept the hassle of) a global eShop release.

G-Style's Chain Blaster broke unexpectedly out of Japan - maybe the same will happen to Karous: the Beast of Re:Eden. If it does, I suspect that it will be entirely based on SFL's efforts.
