I really didn't want to have to buy a bloody JP360, but it looks like I'll need to now.

Bugger.

I feel I need to jump onto the 360 train as well. Too good titles to pass up.

I really hope the rumors of esp2 and dfk are true. I don't see why they wouldn't come but for now they are just rumors, no?

Yeah, I just imported a PC-Engine Duo RX. Hopefully this won't be out for a while. I'm broke for at least several month's now.

Crazy. Just the other day I was listing out the next big pcb purchase I'd have to make, and Futari 1.5 was at the top of my list. Thanks for saving me $1000 Cave!

I do have to wonder at this point, with Cave picking up steam on its own ports, can that mythical "Classic Cave Collection" be that far off? All the late-nineties classics ported to work in HD like Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection...

For now though, Futari 1.5. Hell. Yeah. What a gift.

The reasons to own one are slowly stacking up at this point.

At least the Raiden Fighters collection is coming over at a discount price for those who do not yet own one.

Sweet, another cave shmup going to 360! I wouldn't have imagined that platform would have all the JRPGs AND shmups for the current hardware generation. :p

Some might argue that a crappy port of an awesome game is better than a perfect port of a shitty game ;)
Oh and BTW this one isn't done by 5bp, so i wouldn't say it's a crap port per se.

If they released them on ANY console that wasn't made by microsoft I'd buy it in a heartbeat to play Ketsui or Futari.

Also I still don't understand how this makes any sense. Japan in general hates the xbox. It would have made much more sense to release japan-only shmups on the PS3. Also why the hell do they region-lock these things on the xbox? They are only losing sales by doing so, right? Am I missing some financial reason for doing it? If these came out in the US I'd buy the games just to play them on friends' xboxes, but still, no, they have to be friggin region-locked...
Back when I shat on the PlayStation and flamed Sony fans on the old Nintendo forums, my mom used to tell me, "Son, you need to get a damn job."

Anyway, sweet, sweet news, if only because this means an exponential increase in Reko hentai on the internet.

Also, seconding/thirding calls for ESPGaluda II. Take that, you bourgeois PCB owners with your top hats and your more money than me!

Well for me, an elitist PCB collector bastard, those ports are always crappy. It wasn't meant as an offense against people playing those.

I like the sound of this.

And yes, there is Reko hentai, but even if we were to double the number of images on the internet we'd still have like only 30 or so, a good third of which would include tentacles.

Man, I am really excited about this. The first time I played Futari, I was disappointed that it wasn't bug themed and was visually very different from Mushi, but I've been eager to sit down with this game again so it's nice to see I won't have to shell out for the PCB.

Best news this year. Back in December Futari was the number 1 game on the wishlist, so this a late Xmas gift.

With all the shooters for the 360 coming out this year I will be rather busy. Maybe I'll even be able to put my ps2 away for a bit.

I've already resigned myself to the belief that this will never happen, but it's still exciting to fantasize about, heh heh.

Anyways, I quite liked what I played of this over at bay's place, so I'm definitely snagging the port.

I am quickly running out of reasons not to get a J-360. See how Ketsui turns out, I guess
