Awesome news. That Dangun Feveron announcement was unexpected. DOJBLEX patch supposedly due out next month too, but I'm not holding my breath.

Weird as Esprade was the most requested game next to Guwange. Perhaps there are more XBLA releases coming next year.

Didnt they also announce DDP DOJ BL patch as well? Dangun Feveron is awesome! Wonder how much MMP and Pink Sweets kits will drop after these are out.

I'm just hoping for more region free a la Futari and EspGaluda 2. Dangun Feveron on XBLA would be great though.

Every old-school 360 I've gotten dies.. I've been through maybe 8 or so now since they came out. I got one of those fancy new slim ones, maybe I'll save up and snag a J360 slim from NCSX next month.. Not to entirely derail, but how's the JP XBLA for shmups?

This is very good to know.

Bah, hardly. Been saving for another cab for a while, expecting to pay at least double. As for the 360, just need to save up a few weeks :).

Might be about time to pick up a J360 if none of these are going to be localized or region free. I've been wanting to play pink sweets and DDP DFK. Those with Ketsui are finally pushing me over the edge on the J360.

You just are not a modern shmup player if you do not own a Japanese 360 IMO.

Not necessarily, there's quite a number of people here that own the PCBs of recent Cave games. The US 360 will be fine for most who don't feel the need to own every shooter.

lol. I own most of the newer cave PCBs so honestly it takes a lot of ports to make a J360 worth it.

It's funny seeing someone acting like an elitist based on ports.

Not trying to be a elitist.

Just saying the cycle has gone in that direction. Most if not all modern shmup releases are on Xbox 360. Not everyone can afford $1000 dollar pcbs although we would like to. I bought a Japanese PS3 thinking that would be the next STG console boy was I wrong. The Japanese have stuck with the 360 like flies on shit despite a poor sales record.

Fair enough. Not sure why i was so cranky in my initial response. My apologies. Back on topic, the J360 and (who would've guessed this) the iPhone/Pad of all places are good places to go for the shooting love these days. I was really suprised at how well 'luda II turned out on iPhone, and am looking forward to DFK.

I would like to own a Ipad. I am considering parting with my classic console collection for one perhaps. Would like to try it out first though :)

JP Deathsmiles Arcade mode is nearly 100% accurate to the PCB, pretty much as good as it gets. Lack of scanlines and true 240p output do make it a hair inferior, I'll give you that. But most people aren't going to pay $500+ for scanlines in one game.

Nice, the only thing with playing these games on the new consoles is that they have been re-done, and aren't the same. I have a hard time growing to like any of the systems. I currently own an xbox 360, ps3, and wii, but I couldn't tell you the last time I even turned them on??...
