Christmas comes early again!
Hello all
I found this :
www.bang2busters.com
can someone have any information ?
This is fake ? or real ?
OMG !!!!
GENTLEMEN!!!
I couldn't resist. Oh yes and out of nowhere! This is so sweet!
And in only 1 years time back to back! (2009 & 2010)
As Ironclad arrived on 11/24/2009
This is great news! Who cares what carts are sacrificed! Who cares what they charge for them! Let's stay focussed! Another neogeo proto is made available!
Ok, so here are some initial observations that I made:
-- The video is of emulation quality, so the game is clearly already dumped, but then we already knew that, as Xacrow's emulated shots from January of 2005 were also from an emulator.
-- The 2000 copyright on the title screen is nothing to worry about, even though the original is 1994. The game was considered for re-release by SNK in 2000 (as was Zupapa in 2001 although that one actually was released then) so all that means is that the dump from which they will be making the carts is the newer 2000 version. (just like Zupapa the differences are sure to be minimal)
-- It only stands to reason that hey...if these guys have this game...then they may very well have others...!!! So therefore this release may be a "test the waters" to see if they sell enough copies to make it worth doing the next one!
-- If indeed they scored this romset from Xacrow, they may be involved with the project at a "middleman level". Perhaps like a distributor. So if all parties involved get what they want out of this (whatever they feel is fair to compensate them for all costs involved) then it will ensure additional titles!
Either way, I am very happy and very thankful to anyone and everyone involved that has made this possible. And as I have said over and over, slowly but surely...eventually...all of them will make their way out and become available.
