I think I saw a used copy for DC in the trading section for $45, and I have a new copy for GC for $50.

ummm, I remember seeing that gamefaqs had Radirgy Generic as one of the upcoming releases for the gamecube. I saw this about a month ago, but now it appears that the US release is no longer on the gamefaqs website.

Which bears an uncanny resemblance to the way you are passing judgement on Playstation.

Actually I've played PS1, 2, and 3(at a demo kiosk) so you have no point whatsoever. You talk about me disliking Sony which is very true but I haven't really talked up any other systems. With each new day you sound more and more like a Sony fanboy.

Contemplating getting this. I already own the jap version though, so probably won't.

Glad to see that others find my Recap Attack image amusing. I should modify it so he's throwing an MVS cart or something.

Anyway, the Radio Allergy site is, er, live. Sort of.

Looks like they changed up their server domain recentaly (the website has a lot of filler content at the moment). But at least this counts as official word on distribution.

Hey, I resent that. I'm a pretty big Touhou fan, and I've never looked up any Touhou porn. I'm more of a realistic porn kinda guy, ya know? -_^ I also however, haven't gotten around to playing PCB seriously... YET. I still want to 1cc ESPGALUDA, then it's straight into PCB for me.

*ahem* anyways... I have Radirgy on the DC and I really like it. The invuln shield system makes the game a bit easy, kinda like once you know what you're doing in Psyvariar2 and can invuln for entire chunks of a level. But score attacking the game is tons of fun ^_^

The only reason I'd pick up this title if it is out or gets released here, is to simply support the genre and encourage it being brought over more often.

I'm pretty sure I stuck a "most" somewhere in there though I'm getting old at the ripe old age of 19 so my memory might be hazy

Speaking for SNK fans, even with the 'most' your statement is still wrong, old guy.
Just because some hackneyed hentai guy does most of the art for SNK's games doesn't mean we all like it.

Can't speak for the Tohou group, however.

You did indeed say "most." And I don't know many Touhou fans well enough to be able to speak for them. All I know is that while my roommate has strange tastes(I wonder if he knows I know? hmm), but I haven't found anything Touhou on his computer... yet... It HAS been a while since I've looked... Hmmm...

At any rate, Perfect Cherry Blossom is easily the best "buzz shooter" I've ever played, and could contest high up on the broader donmaku genre scale. At least for me, remember people, this is all opinion ^_^ The characters are all pretty cool too, which is why Immaterial and Missing Power gets so much attention from me. Very strange, yet very awesome fighter/shooter hybrid thing, done by the same people who made Eternal Fighter Zero.

And as a note, I thought I was just matching the seriousness of your post with my own ^_^ Maybe I got the wrong kind of sarcasm out of your post though... Tis very possible with text based language.

*shrug* I had more fun with Raji then any other shooter that I tried this year. Which for reference is: Ibara, Under Defeat, Pink Sweets, and Trigger Heart Excelica.

I thought the graphics where very stylized and clean, the music catchy and fitting, and the scoring system was really fun.

Ok, I lied... ESP Galuda 2's probably better then Raji, I just didn't have enough of a chance to play it.

BTW: The Dreamcast manual refers to a "Radio Allergy" in the profoundly retarded story section. And the name, is a concatenation/abbreviation of those two words. ラジオ・アレルギ=ラジルギ。(rajio arerugi -> rajirugi, or radio allergy -> radilgy)

Touhou fans are a strange bunch, at times exhibiting ZUN-like randomness, except sometimes it can lead to hentai-related content, but most moderators there are sane enough to warn people of NSFW material when posting a link, while being all-around nice people at the same time! The randomness stems from 4chan itself since a lot of Touhou fans also frequent that site, and they even have their own imageboard to post Touhou-related images (worksafe, of course), some of them quite YEAH at times. In short, check out their IRC channel. =D

Just like the personalities of Touhou fans- random stuff put together somewhat coherently and the end result is awefulsome!

No, no no! You got that all wrong! You're supposed to say Shoot the Bullet!*

Back on topic, I only played Rajirugi once. Then Senko no Ronde arrived and I stopped playing my Dreamcast for a bit.

EDIT:

At least they have it listed now... middle screen-shot nabbed from the INH super-play DVD. They appear to have augmented the original Radirgy Generic logo in a really cheesy manner.

Radio Allergy is an action packed Adventure for the GameCube from O~3 Entertainment. The game is a modern day revival to the original Gradius. Radio Allergy suits the demands of the hardcore video game fans but is easy to learn for the casual players. The game’s subtle strategies become apparent after several plays and is hard to put down.

I'll be picking this up mainly for the same reason as I already have the DC version.

Wow... You'd think they'd at least pick something... Vertical at the very least for comparison. I guess they just figure that Gradius is going to be more immediately recognized than say Raiden or 194X or whatever.

Well I would buy one just to say I found another shmup that will play on my system. I know it's pathetic i would probably buy a game from infogrames if they made a shmup- that's how pathetic i am.
Some of the best shmups don't actually end in a vowel.
No, this game is not Space Invaders.

Infogrames is now called Atari.

Radirgy is as far as I know a merge of the two words: Radio Allergy.

Holy shit, 03. Compare a vertical shmup to a horizontal one. Go fuck yourself. I'll get this game if it's good.

If its $20, I'll do the same. I already own the DC version, but niche publishers like O3 need a little push in the right direction. Besides, being able to play it wirelessly on my Wii is an added bonus.

O3Ent. Coming Soon
Says there February.

O3 also sorta hints that Karous will make it out as they refer to Radio Allergy as the next game in Milestone's shooter series, making it sound like there are more games after Radio Allergy, if this is indeed a series...
And then in the Community forum an Administrator posts a link to the official Karous page and suggests "Look forward to this."!

O3 Entertainment looks right to stand as my favorite publisher of '07!
Just simply for Radilgy alone, but you'll notice in the Coming Soon page they use a shot from the Illegal Function DVD. Could O3Ent really be so awesome as to include a translated Super Play DVD with their $20 release?!?
