GhostSeed was already talking about it here.

This game is actually the 2nd Pocky & Rocky in the states for the SNES.

Great game.

A little more longer gameplay video

 

[SignOfZeta]

That looks pretty great. It’s nice to see that Natsume and Taito still exist in some form. Not too many of the good OGs left...

Will this be a limited run?

 

[GhostSeed]

New characters! Release Date 04/21 in Japan

This looks like a lot of fun. I’ve been a fan of the series even though I’m pretty terrible at it and do have a few of the games.

Natsume remakes are an easy sell. Ninja Warriors Once Again is tits awesome.

The more videos I see on this the more I can’t wait to play it.

I would not have guessed that Sankaku Complex would still be around after all these years.

So, there's less cleavage on a single character? Who gives a shit?

 

[Ajax]

Looool waste of energy getting sad about this instance of egregious censorship. Game looks pretty dope though.

If I have the SFC cart, do I need this?

Edit: Is there a physical version available from Amazon Japan?

This legitimately looks great, they obviously put a lot of effort into it. Nice to see a remaster/remake that isn't just a nostalgia grab. And thank god they did the graphics properly instead of that soulless 3D in 2D that is often adopted out of laziness, or even worse shitty mobile game 2D.
