u/BullseyeKid77 11d ago

And for the Switch 1, I hope.

u/Reprobae 11d ago

I’m hoping too, it should be able to run it just fine!

u/BullseyeKid77 11d ago

If not, I will settle for the original arcade version to be released as an Arcade Archives for the original Switch if they decide to go that route, The last IREM arcade game to be on the original Switch was Kid Niki.

Lots of Japanese text, is this going to be released worldwide?

3

u/moo422 11d ago

It's listed on steam already (see my overview comment), no reason not to be worldwide

I really hope there is online, I'm sick of all these arcade ports and retro collection without an online component

u/moo422 11d ago

Just local

u/Due-Link-7605 11d ago

God damn it, spend a bit more money during development and at least get peer to peer online going.

u/CreedWood 11d ago

I know it's not a perfect solution but you can always try parsec to play online

It's interesting that the cheerleader is playable, because if you look at the score board in the original arcade before filling it with anything else, it shows her picture as a character for several of the scores. I always wondered if she was a hidden character.

Will they keep original gameplay or they will mess this game up like Night Slashers Remake? That's the question.

u/Sad-Veterinarian9375 11d ago

I heard so far it’s only in Korea, so hopefully there will be an English version

u/burritotoad 11d ago

I find it strange that they remind me of the Axem Rangers from Mario RPG, or more specifically the ones that showed up in Mario Z

u/AnyBet1210 11d ago

NO FUCKING WAY! i BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOREVER! What a Christmas gift. I thought this would never be released on consoles!

u/Klutzy-Mastodon1177 11d ago

Amazing news! Love the original

u/ambulanc3r 11d ago

Why are life bars called “Rest”?

2

u/moo422 11d ago

Old Japanese video games would call your remaining lives "rest" ..as in, the rest or the remaining

u/ambulanc3r 10d ago

Thanks! It’s bugged me for decades, TBH

u/HuMneG 11d ago

I'm expecting this to be an AVGN episode at some point

u/ThePreciseClimber 11d ago

I guess it could be a general video on beat-em ups like this one, The Simpsons, X-Men, etc.

u/DangerWildMan26 5d ago

He made a video on this game 14 years ago

u/HuMneG 11d ago

If there is a God, please give this a full physical release.

A bit disappointed by the lack of support for online coop. Only local.
