You know, I had never noticed this before now, but the Zweihander went as far as to add a "Zweihander" logo at the middle of the Rick Astley video, just so we would see that at the preview in youtube, instead of Rick Astley.
Pretty smart

Oh man, imagine if they are making a new Darius game with OGR composing.
Best possible thing that could possibly happen of all time.

Hey, it worked for VOOT. Besides, all of Senko's potential hasn't been tapped yet.
I'm guessing their new game is going to be a Visual Novel based on the Senko no Ronde drama CD and you can visit an arcade there where there's a location test for their real game which also explains to the player that they just released this visual novel so they can get the money to develop it.

Naomi
Naomi cd rom then? instead of GD rom. Which supposedly isn't made anymore.
Naomi is not dead. Naomi is Dreamcast dead which means alive, but just not being advertised for anymore by Sega perhaps.

The title is "Mamoru-kun has been cursed". Sounds like some sort of cute'em up (if it even is a shooter...).
It sounds like a name for a platformer actually. Could Grev be making an arcade platformer? Dare to dream.

No, cartridge. Dynamite Deka EX wasn't released all that long ago as a Naomi cart.
Man, a platformer could kick all kinds of ass.

And it's a gamble since platformers don't make that much money anymore in arcades (unless you can prove me wrong).

Yep. Same deal with Exzeal. I'm pretty sure we can assume that this is NAOMI cart.
And for the last time, folks, Sega specifically stated that any official software released for the GD-ROM drive unit will be in GD-ROM format. There will never be an officially released CD-ROM game for either NAOMI or DC. A small company like MileStone, G-Rev or Triangle Service is still an official company and will head Sega's release guidelines.

Looks like the game is called "Garuchi".
Also, it appears that it uses the same 80 degree forced perspective of Under Defeat (it's really difficult to tell in that one screenshot though).

No, the game is called "Mamoru-kun ha norowareteshimatta!" (Momoru-kun has been cursed), as EOJ said.
"Garuchi" is apparently the name of the co-developer. Nobody's ever heard of them. Is there a clean scan of the article? Then I coud translate it.

Actually, the way I understand it, Garuchi is a new developer that will work with G.rev on this title, and the game's name will be this:
まもるクンは呪われてしまった!
Mamoru-kun wa Norowarete Shimatta!
But but but I could be totally wrong, so GP get in here quick and tell us what's up!
edit: oh well, CIT beat me to it

You're right about the title, and no there are no better quality scans, these are from
http://www.kobayan.jp/ site btw, scroll down a bit to see.

How sad that as it stands Karous will have been the last official Dreamcast game. This would surely have been a much better swan song.

Whoops. :/
So can we just start calling this "Mamoru-kun"?

@Ceph: I sense that the Dreamcast will get a couple more shmups than this one over the next few years.
