I think you will find that SDOJ would immediately become empirically and inarguably the best game/thing ever made if every VA was replaced with the guy who did DonPachi.

Fucking IMAGINE IT.

Of all the Cave games on 360, DFK is easily my least favorite. I'd say it's actually my least favorite Cave game overall. I only put it into my 360 to play arrange A or to verify that I still hate it.

Glad SDOJ is a return to form. The Pachi series isn't my favorite, but it should definitely be kept simple imo.

Hmm, I don't think they'll have it. Eurotaku as mentioned in a different thread, don't have stock on hand all the time, and often contact you to say the item was unable to be acquired and offer a refund.

Ah, okay. I'll be expecting that then. Thanks for the heads up! I didn't get my hopes up, since I wasn't familiar with the store, and am still keeping an eye out on Amazon JP and Amiami. I usually still keep an eye out on Amiami after they sell out on stuff because once in awhile, they usually have stuff back in stock/available. It happened with past LEs I wanted to preorder before.

Well nothing is guaranteed, Eurotaku could come through for you. Let us know how it works out either way. ;)

Could someone elaborate on the three different prices and what you get?

From what I can tell its some poster or cell sized poster with a soundtrack and the game.

Your correct. Y-A has both LEs, which both have art books. Regular LE has a B6 sized book, while the Ultra LE has a A4 sized book. 8)

Good thing I recalculated the price because the LE comes out to about £65 shipped and not the £90 I thought it was.

Pre-order booked :)

That listing has only gone up in the last hour or so, and the pre-orders were never open. Same for the standard limited edition.

When they open the orders properly those two will be available.

I hope so. That never showed up searching om P-A under DDP proper either. I don't need sites being super sketchy with the Ultra Limited. I'll happily give them money. :-\
Although rather get it from NCS, so I don't have to sign for it in case I miss the mail lady, and guarantee I get it for that weekend.

Is this 100% confirmed to "bee" the last CAVE port for the 360? or is it their swansong just as Mushi HD was supposed to be?

Remind me, are they getting out of the arcade business or simply switching hardware? If it's the latter then porting to consoles is always possible seeing as coming up with the game concept/artwork/PCB is probably 95% of the total workload, even when a port is in the pipeline.

If they are going to mobile games then I guess it's the end, but if there was a console out there to receive any scraps being thrown from their table I see the 360 as a more likely candidate than any future MS console (or even Sony console considering their current stance on non 16:9 games) Selling the next-box in Japan would be like trying to sell doughnuts to an anorexic. It's only through these niche shmup ports that the 360 has managed to garner even the remotest share of the market. I'd be surprised if they attempted to adopt a strategy of trying to sell a next-box off the back of the output from a single studio who are hardly able to churn out titles fifteen-to-the-dozen.

Even if they said "We have no more money to make games" I wouldn't be 100% sure about anything Cave says.

Yeah, Cave said Akai was their last game ever for 360 yet here we are.

On another note, really hoping the Super LEs aren't sold out, but the pages aren't being updated... how could amazon.co.jp/Yes-Asia/Play-Asia/amiami/etc sell out within hours :cry:
