Yup, still has it.
Cheers.

Doesn't every Cave game from DDPDOJ onward use different hardware than their previous games? I don't think this or any Cave game from DOJ and newer will be emulated for a looooooooong time. But hey, what do I know? Maybe I'm wrong.

Would've been nice to have a console port...

I would like Guwange, Dangun, Esprade and Ketsui on the PS2. That would indeed feel really nice. And oh, Progear of course. And Dragon Blaze (from Psikyo) on a DESCENT PORT. Heard bad things about Psikyo volume 1 and 2 so I'm kind of keeping my expectations low.

yeah. the older games were on a 68k based board. doj, ketsui, and espgaluda are on modified igs pgm hardware. mushi and ibara are on a sh3 based board.
more info:

no page up for the new hardware though.

i saw someone mention work was being started on the cave pgm stuff, or was delayed. or something, i forget. but it was mentioned for one reason or another. personally dont care other than for playing on my notebook away from home. course i have to wait a few years for game prices to come down but whatever, theyre worth it.

and i havent seen the copyright warning in a long time, by the time my screen displays an image its past it. only time id see it is going into the test menu and resetting, which i havent done in a while. which reminds me, whats the 'number of chutes' option in cave games?
