As someone who can only shmup on Novice modes, I'm a little sad about the naming of Super Easy mode and what it might mean. Obviously any easier mode is going to not matter to a real shmupper's skill, but "Super Easy," makes me feel like it will be one even I can clear on my first or second go, like DFK or Espgaluda 2, and not something that's a bit crunchy, like Mushi's Novice modes.
Machine translation is getting pretty good, almost making knowing Japanese obsolete lol. A couple minor quibbles: it's really saying "includes super easy mode that anyone can clear" and "of course, contains M2 gadgets to help clear the game and arcade challenges [implies there are other features like this but does not list them]." The sc looking text says "now comparing..." etc but that doesn't really change the point.
My daughter, who is 8, loves to watch me play shmups, but they're too hard for her. She really likes the Super Easy modes on the M2 ShotTriggers releases because it lets her play the same game as dad
Awww, that's so sweet! ❤️ I love how M2's releases make it clear that shmups can be hard if you play them seriously, yes, but that in the end, they're for everyone to enjoy!
That is a fun use ha. But I still maintain that super easy is much too easy. I bet it won't take your daughter long to beat it, then the divide between it and arcade is very massive. A tougher easy mode would be much better in the long run
@RNG Gamer: Agreed. How does the community expect the genre to grow if all the games are inaccessible unless you're an teen/adult or a savant? Imagine the genre in ten years if kids cut their teeth on shmups when they're 5, 6, 7...? Also, the genre is so daunting to those teens/adults who have never really played shmups. Easy mode is a great utility. I love this channel but his comments about easy modes being a waste of time are pretty myopic - sorry for the criticism!
@@esperago I love this channel too, and I feel like your comment about being myopic is well warranted. A lot of people, including myself, look at a game and feel that it has a fair or balanced difficulty, only to then see someone struggle with it immensely. One tends to forget that the average lay-person can't even beat the first level of Super Mario Bros. on their first try. My daughter has difficulty holding a cup full of milk without spilling it, so asking her to grind out a shmup without an easy mode is a big ask. It is easy to forget the lack of fine motor skills that children possess.
Thank you for the info and video; in my country, once again, this kind of Shmups announcement gets lost and i learn about those M2 shot releases thanks to you. So i'll pre-order this 1 from Japan as soon as it's possible, i can't wait to play this DaiOuJou i never had the opportunity to try. May you have a merry Christmas 🎄
@@TheElectricUnderground i can't wait 😋 i ordered Ketsui Deathtiny and Esp RaDe after watching several of your videos (especially your Cave games ranking), i was expecting great games and i was surprised that the experience was even better than what i thought it would be (despite the Japanese only texts); Hence my disappointment that some recent Nintendo Switch releases haven't been ported on the PS4....(yet ? 🤞). For sure, M2 have done amazing work, so i trust them to release an other great port 🙌
I've been a fan of shmups for all of my life but I've only just found this channel and it's amazing! Thanks for all your hard work, merry Christmas and a happy new year dude ✌️
This announcement got me mad hyped. One of my favorites alongside Ketsui. The fact that M2 is making it is reason to party. Shame that other platforms might not be getting it but my PS5 is ready.
Yeah I m totally fine with it being on the PS4. PC version would be cool but the PS4 version performs rock solid so there s no drawback to it really I don't think. And at this point they have made enough of a reason to own a PS4 just for their games
@@TheElectricUnderground For sure. I’d rather them focus on a legit PS4 port than split their time and end up with a lower quality, less accurate port.
@@TheElectricUnderground yeah, also a used ps4 is dirty cheap nowdays so if you dont have one already, its pretty easy to get one even if just for shmups
@donhimesamadaifutari maybe the arrange (whatever it ends up being) will have something like deathtiny's die-death where you can switch to loop 2 patterns
M2 is insane. Seriously the artwork for this particular game is what makes me wanna play it so badly. When are they gonna start porting everything in English over to us?
Legit your "Top 30 Shmups of All Time" video randomly stumbling into my UA-cam recommendations one day is what got me back into shmups; I haven't touched the genre since the Mega Drive before then. And DOJ being at the top of that list always was a sore spot for me, since Garrega and Ketsui had modern versions I could play, but not DOJ.....until now!! Even though I know I'm never gonna be good enough to clear it, I'm excited as hell to get my hands on this. PS - Happy holidays my dude!
How the hell did I miss this announcement!? I swear, whenever I start forgetting about the ShotTriggers series, they announce something new. Fantastic choice for their next port - my personal dream would still be a port of Ibara Kuro, but there's a reason DOJ has its legendary reputation for sure.
The PS2 port is called White Label, that port has also a gamemode called Death Label, which is the bosses, but way harder, aaaaand has a Double Hibachi at the end (literally, 2 Hibachis)
Gonna be awesome. I look forward to see what gets added in. I would love to see some DDP and a Batrider/Bakraid combo release from M2... Hey - a man can dream. But I'll be very happy to play a new port of DOJ that doesn't suck.
Looking forward to it a lot as well. Though I do think they should keep adding the super simple modes. I truly believe this is an awesome feature for people new to the shmup, and the ones who still suck at them after years of playing, but still enjoy the easy modes like myself 😉
This will be an insta-buy on the ps4.The hård drive has plenty of room as it's basically just an M2/ACA machine! I thought I was nuts when I bought it just for that, but I don't regret it one bit. BTW Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year and thanks for another year of superb content.
Good video. I know Switch has more lag but kinda wish it had a version. Also liveWire seems to do a pretty decent job of their ports. Above and beyond city connection at least.
Yeah a switch version would be cool too for handheld :-) also yeah livewire are solid, def better than city connection, but they just cannot match the power of m2 shottriggers, their ports are works of art
Yeah I d love to see that too! I imagine though that the amount of quality they put into their ports is time consuming though, so it s a double edged sword. It takes forever, but the releases are amazing
That's why I love M2 joints. They cater to all skill levels. Ketsui's arrange mode is a godsend for a scrub like me and Esp Ra. De.'s custom mode allows me to tailor the game's difficulty to something resembling a "novice" setting.
The power of save states my friend, plus the custom mode can add in a lot of cool stuff! I d love to see a custom mode autobomb feature for new players
Awesome news. They couldn't have picked a better one to do next. I don't think we're going to get it anytime soon though, because they still have to finish up the Ray-Z collection and the total time between that and the Same! collection was like half a year. It figures that the wait for DOJ will probably be until near the end of the year. But for all the care they put into their ports, it should end up worth it.
M2 WITH THE BEST ANNOUNCEMENT EVER. GOD TIER. M2 said DOJ is coming next year but this video is basically a teaser, with the full details later on (the full title of this releat is still not final lol) They also dropped another trailer for the new Aleste Branch and a Soundtrack EP of their brand new shmup in development God tier announcement and I'm gonna preorder as soon as they make it available
@@serraramayfield9230 yeah the title of this port isn't final it just has the word Dodonpachi Daioujou (temp) written All the cave shot triggers ports so far were given some sorta subtitle named after the new arrange mode (Ketsui Deathtiny, ESPrade Psi) so it's safe to assume the full name, additional modes, arranges and etc will all be revealed some point next year
First, merrx xmas! But you almost got me angry there, Mark. No body gives a shit about super easy mode? Oh, come on man. Not everybody is that good at shmups. I could only play Ketsui and Garegga thanks to this mode. Without this mode, bullet hell shmups would be even more niche then they already are.
Merry Xmas! What I meant about super easy (and I think I clarified what it meant) is that super easy mode is actually too easy and even new players don't like it. There are much better versions of novice modes (like in crimzon clover and gunvein) that are more compelling. I think the super easy modes are the weakest aspects of their releases. Honestly changing settings in custom mode is a better easy mode
@@TheElectricUnderground Merry Christmas and holidays. My GF and I are getting into Shmups together (I've always had an interest) Your channel is our favorite and we've both improved our game from watching your content. Thanks from both of us!
I really wish we could get some more M2 port love over here on Xbox!!! I have Battle Garegga and the Dangun Feveron ports and they are absolutely phenomenal!
goddam it I need to get a PS4 now, how easy / expensive is it to get all the previous M2 ports or are they out of print and stupid expensive collectable now?
Amazing. I will be pre-ordering as well. I have this on PS2 and 360 but I've never played 360 since it's region locked. I'm a huge shmup fan but newer to the genre. I'm really not all that good and I like their super easy modes! I always start with them and can usually get a no death clear using auto bomb, then I move up from there. Or with the Toaplan games I usually just stick with super easy since the auto bomb pretty much negates the check point system. Super easy opens the games up to a much larger audience.
Well, you pretty much hit the translation where you guessed "Super accurate, Omega accurate." The end of the trailer says "Tell Mankind to defeat Scarlet Bee."
Man I was looking up if there was any way of getting "Magical Drop" games on PC and found "G-MODEアーカイブス19 マジカルドロップDX", I checked it on Steam and apparently there is a DoDonPachi DaiOuJou "G-MODE" version, and "G-MODE Archives is a reissue project that faithfully recreates old feature phone games as they were back then." lol
Absolutely love their work on Ketsui and BG, but seriously, start doing PC ports. Really on the fence whether I will purchase specifically because of the choice to avoid pc ports.
Don't know if you seen it already but according to someone who knows Japanese on the Shmupss 11 site, and watched M2s latest stream the Garage releases Super Easy modes have a secret whereby if you survive no-miss long enough then the rank suddenly goes super nuts!Be cool to see what they may have planned göras DOJ.
Just pre-ordered it. I insist on a physical copy for this. I’ll Probably install a light directly above my shelf so there’s a constant beam of light on it. I think some velvet ropes around that bookcase are in order as well 🙌
Been hoping for this ever since they did Ketsui, now they have done a port of Garegga, Futari, Ketsui, Dangun and DOJ. I'm literally done, i don't need anything else.
New fan of your channel here. I'm contemplating taking on DOJ as my next project in terms of modding in some fanmade achievements and leaderboards. Arcade shmups are probably the most neglected genre in the retro achievement hunting/modding community, and I'm doing what little I can to help turn that tide. By the way, would you be interested in giving feedback/suggestions on my design before anything goes live? It's to help make sure I do this masterpiece justice. In any case, keep up the awesome content.
This and Espaluda's perfect arcade ports already exist on PS2. These excellent 1:1 arcade ports even support 240p and TATE modes. Why do we need multiple perfect arcade ports? They already exist and easily accessible. They should do other shooters that until now do not have decent ports. Some worthy titles would be Ibara, Ibara Pink Sweets, Raiden Fighters Collection (Xbox version is not arcade perfect and the JP version is not accessible to everyone), Viper Phase 1, Soukyugurentai, Zanac Neo (a very good game but the PS1 version has too much slowdown in 2P mode), Kingdom Grandprix, etc.
as someone who is around as old as the ps2, it's not exactly an accessible option for me i'd have to buy a ps2 (either with modchip or a power supply adapter) in the first place, on top of the game being expensive then i'd have to find a monitor to plug it into, cause the only things with analog inputs i have are massive tvs and after all that i'd have a console i probably will only ever use for like 3 games, a lot more stuff to organize and several hundred spent not exactly accessible if you ask me
I talk about it in the vid but the PS2 port is massively incomplete, there is no black label. The main version of the game is black label, and the 360 port is crappy. So this port is absolutely needed.
Super exciting news indeed! On another note, hearing you talk about m2 ports here made me think about something, would you be willing to do a video with a top 10 or something best shmups ports on modern plataforms? Between Ps4/Ps5, Xone/Series and Switch (if any)? So someone like me that loves shmups but been out of the loop can have a quick guide of what ports to seek for my current consoles!
10:39 Well, turns out that is is December 2023, but I'm glad it's coming. Pre-ordered the Switch Limited Edition since I don't have a region-free PS4, I hope the port gets a digital release on NA PS4 like Ketsui did.
@@TheElectricUnderground My reasons are personal. Because Aleste Branch is bringing us back Ellinor Waizen, along with two newcomers, and I believe Ubusuna is the successor to both Radiant Silvergun and Ikaruga.
I placed DOJ in rank 1 on your 3day old poll and just found this announcement a couple of minutes later. What a call xD i still cant believe a "ketsui deathtiny quality based" daioujou is coming.. i had it on ps2 and took weeks just to chain 1st level or beating 1st boss rush encounter. Am i dreaming ? IS this even real ?! o0"
At 47 years old I begin to return on the shut em up after your videos....But for you is better to take the arcade version of the shutem ups or the ports? Are the ports better?
So it showed this from the PCB arcade port and so this is going to be an arcade port for PlayStation 4 black label extra I've been waiting for this🎮🕹😀👍🏾
@@TheElectricUnderground I’ve never played black label, but it is strange they didn’t include it on that port, doesn’t matter now though, this things gonna be sick. Between the Ray’z arcade and this one, M2 is off to a good start for 2023
i shocked knowing its DOJ when i saw shootie dying in Type-A ship. i thought its Ray'z Promotional video. Cave do really love spoiling the gameplay on the cover art by destroying the low tier ship on the cover lol. (sorry i do comment a lot XD)
There is a God...best Christmas present of all time. M2 and DOJ = 10/10 Would recommend. When TOA(East Asia) started I got goose bumps. Also M2 just needs to release Batrider on PS4. Come on M2 you can do it nicky!
Fantastic announcement! Hey Mark, do you have a list of games that you want to 1CC, do a 2-ALL or maybe scorechase by the end of the next year? Happy holidays!
Interesting you say you have PS4 as the best shmup system now. Along with the M2 shot Triggers releases, what titles would you suggest? Really enjoy your channel btw, subbed.

Preordering the second it is available I already regret missing the ketsui physical. I can’t wait to have it next to esp ra de
I got the ket physical when it came out, but gave it away to a viewer. Wish I would have ordered 2 copies back then ha
Even if this is Switch/PS4 only and not Steam, this is still very exciting! Pretty much the best news we could've hoped for from m2.
Yep get a ps4 my friend, it s worth it for just the m2 ports at this point
What a beautiful PV . Love it. Nice surprise!
Awesome that M2 is doing this. I'd love to see them up their output. 4-5 Shot Triggers releases a year would be nice.
Yeah I d love to see that too! I imagine though that the amount of quality they put into their ports is time consuming though, so it s a double edged sword. It takes forever, but the releases are amazing
I'm happy with 1 or 2 a year as long as they keep making them for PS4 for a while.
They showcased PCB side to side with PS4 and there is complete parity on slowdown.
Super impressive! Very key for scoreplay as well
Very excited about this, cant wait!
Me neither! So hype!
I wish they'd do Batsugun but this is still an improvement over the last few odd choices imo
They will do batsugun at the end of their toaplan garage series I hope
Just ordered the famitsu dx 3D crystal version on Amazon Japan half way through this video. Can’t wait!.

I'm really not all that good and I like their super easy modes! I always start with them and can usually get a no death clear using auto bomb, then I move up from there. Or with the Toaplan games I usually just stick with super easy since the auto bomb pretty much negates the check point system. Super easy opens the games up to a much larger audience.
*Checks to see if Ketsui is on switch yet*
Brilliant news. I would also love I Ibara , Espgaluda and Raiden Fighters trilogy on ps4
Well, you pretty much hit the translation where you guessed "Super accurate, Omega accurate." The end of the trailer says "Tell Mankind to defeat Scarlet Bee."
Yay ha!! The power of intuition
Man I was looking up if there was any way of getting "Magical Drop" games on PC and found "G-MODEアーカイブス19 マジカルドロップDX", I checked it on Steam and apparently there is a DoDonPachi DaiOuJou "G-MODE" version, and "G-MODE Archives is a reissue project that faithfully recreates old feature phone games as they were back then." lol
Somebody made Santa's "nice" list this year. Let's go!
Ha yes Xmas wish came true
Absolutely love their work on Ketsui and BG, but seriously, start doing PC ports. Really on the fence whether I will purchase specifically because of the choice to avoid pc ports.
I know it would be laggier but I hope it comes to Switch too. M2 rules.
I would like a switch version as well for handheld, but yeah gotta gotta get the PS4 version for quality
What is the music playing in the background? I know it but I'm forgetting what it's from.
It's doj stage 2!! Such a cool track
Just pre ordered the collectors edition off amazon JP for switch
If m2 ports Futari then i can die happy
Where can I pre order.
I don't think it s listed yet, I ll keep an eye out for it though
Don't know if you seen it already but according to someone who knows Japanese on the Shmupss 11 site, and watched M2s latest stream the Garage releases Super Easy modes have a secret whereby if you survive no-miss long enough then the rank suddenly goes super nuts!Be cool to see what they may have planned göras DOJ.
Just when I thought M2 was done with Cave for a while.
Best we can hope is for a cool brand new mode!!
I was worried too, cave is back on the menu :-)
Just pre-ordered it. I insist on a physical copy for this.
I’ll Probably install a light directly above my shelf so there’s a constant beam of light on it. I think some velvet ropes around that bookcase are in order as well 🙌
I'm glad M2 is still going... And the next game being DOJ? Christmas is a day early
I really hope the release date is somewhat near and it s not Christmas 2023 when this game comes out
Did they forget it’s not 2005? Where’s the steam version?
I think it's not very likely, shot triggers seem to stick mostly on ps4
@@TheElectricUnderground aaaaaaaaaasaassaaaaaa
Well i guess i'm back for Doj grind again haha, but i'm so surprised It wasnt Sdoj getting revived
Return to doj, can't go wrong there!
Been hoping for this ever since they did Ketsui, now they have done a port of Garegga, Futari, Ketsui, Dangun and DOJ.
I'm literally done, i don't need anything else.
Absolutely! Though ddp has to be on that list :-) ddp has no good port at all
New fan of your channel here. I'm contemplating taking on DOJ as my next project in terms of modding in some fanmade achievements and leaderboards.
Arcade shmups are probably the most neglected genre in the retro achievement hunting/modding community, and I'm doing what little I can to help turn that tide.
By the way, would you be interested in giving feedback/suggestions on my design before anything goes live? It's to help make sure I do this masterpiece justice.
In any case, keep up the awesome content.
This and Espaluda's perfect arcade ports already exist on PS2. These excellent 1:1 arcade ports even support 240p and TATE modes. Why do we need multiple perfect arcade ports? They already exist and easily accessible. They should do other shooters that until now do not have decent ports.
Some worthy titles would be Ibara, Ibara Pink Sweets, Raiden Fighters Collection (Xbox version is not arcade perfect and the JP version is not accessible to everyone), Viper Phase 1, Soukyugurentai, Zanac Neo (a very good game but the PS1 version has too much slowdown in 2P mode), Kingdom Grandprix, etc.
as someone who is around as old as the ps2, it's not exactly an accessible option for me
i'd have to buy a ps2 (either with modchip or a power supply adapter) in the first place, on top of the game being expensive
then i'd have to find a monitor to plug it into, cause the only things with analog inputs i have are massive tvs
and after all that i'd have a console i probably will only ever use for like 3 games, a lot more stuff to organize and several hundred spent
not exactly accessible if you ask me
I talk about it in the vid but the PS2 port is massively incomplete, there is no black label. The main version of the game is black label, and the 360 port is crappy. So this port is absolutely needed.
@@cptwigglefuffle Ok
That’s awesome. I hope there is a Switch port.
That would be really cool! I think it would sell really well, though I think the PS4 version will be the must buy version
Super exciting news indeed! On another note, hearing you talk about m2 ports here made me think about something, would you be willing to do a video with a top 10 or something best shmups ports on modern plataforms? Between Ps4/Ps5, Xone/Series and Switch (if any)? So someone like me that loves shmups but been out of the loop can have a quick guide of what ports to seek for my current consoles!
10:39 Well, turns out that is is December 2023, but I'm glad it's coming. Pre-ordered the Switch Limited Edition since I don't have a region-free PS4, I hope the port gets a digital release on NA PS4 like Ketsui did.
I thought all PS4's were region free.
"Conserve the competitive future" well said!
Dropping this December and a Switch version is also coming out!
I just want Aleste Branch, Ubusuna, and maybe Senjin Aleste from them.
I have hunted high and low for Aleste Branch and Ubusuna like Moby-Dick now!
Yeah it would be cool to see those at some point, though my fav output are when they port the heavy hitters, it s their calling :-)
@@TheElectricUnderground My reasons are personal. Because Aleste Branch is bringing us back Ellinor Waizen, along with two newcomers, and I believe Ubusuna is the successor to both Radiant Silvergun and Ikaruga.
I placed DOJ in rank 1 on your 3day old poll and just found this announcement a couple of minutes later.
What a call xD
i still cant believe a "ketsui deathtiny quality based" daioujou is coming.. i had it on ps2 and took weeks just to chain 1st level or beating 1st boss rush encounter. Am i dreaming ? IS this even real ?! o0"
I know it s finally coming, I was losing hope m2 would do more cave ports
@@TheElectricUnderground OMG i cant wait and hope it will be available on european ps4.
Gonna play it on my high wattage CRT pc monitor and nobody can stop me
I will defintely start a 1cc on Super Easy before doing it on Arcade mode or Arrange mode (whatever M2 calls it...)
Can't go wrong there! Though I do wish super easy mode was harder, have it just be regular easy ha
Can’t wait ❤️
Me neither!
Interesting. Need to get a PS4 though. "Just" the Switch doesn't cut it clearly.
Yep exactly, the PS4 is the shmup powerhouse
I keep checking playasia for the pre order
Yeah I m excited to see it, I want to know the release date :-)
Mark bringing Christmas early boys!
It s a celebration 🎉
How is it the switch version?
Amazing news. Now the only thing I'm waiting for is an Aleste Branch release date.
i m fine with my ps2 port but i must admit this is splendid news for cave aficionados
Yes but you gotta have black label!!! PS2 port is white label only sadly
At 47 years old I begin to return on the shut em up after your videos....But for you is better to take the arcade version of the shutem ups or the ports? Are the ports better?
i can see they will threat black label mode in this port equally/even better than PS2 port
I need pc ports from these guys
That would be really cool! But don't count on it and try to pick up a PS4 if you can
I agree. I don't own consoles. Just a gaming laptop and Steamdeck
Just buy a second hand PS4 for 100 bucks and buy those games physical. Very good investment.
DDP DOJ is peak cave SHMUP!
Certainly one of my top 3 of all time. I have yet to 1CC it though. Stages after stage 3 are just brutal.
Hypers FTW!
Absolutely!
Would love to play this with a joy con
I think a switch version is possible
So it showed this from the PCB arcade port and so this is going to be an arcade port for PlayStation 4 black label extra I've been waiting for this🎮🕹😀👍🏾
which version of DOJ is easier to 1CC Black or white label? Thanks
Can you send me a link to the collectors edition you decided on? I want to check it out for myself.
About time! So happy it’s being done by M2. The Ps2 port has served me well, but I will be there day one for this!!!
Yep PS2 is awesome but incomplete, we need black label
@@TheElectricUnderground I’ve never played black label, but it is strange they didn’t include it on that port, doesn’t matter now though, this things gonna be sick. Between the Ray’z arcade and this one, M2 is off to a good start for 2023
Its also for the NIntendo Switch
i shocked knowing its DOJ when i saw shootie dying in Type-A ship. i thought its Ray'z Promotional video. Cave do really love spoiling the gameplay on the cover art by destroying the low tier ship on the cover lol. (sorry i do comment a lot XD)
Ha yeah cool character but we all know exy is the one to play
is it ps4 only? no pc?
would you still recommend i get a ps4 even if i have a good pc?
Yes if you can get a standard ps4 cheaply well worth the money.
@@brendanroberts1310 man the 1tb ps4s are selling almost for the price of ps5s in Brazil wtfff
Yes most likely PS4 only and absolutely get yourself a base PS4. PC does not have the shottrigger ports and they are all fantastic.
There is a God...best Christmas present of all time. M2 and DOJ = 10/10 Would recommend.
When TOA(East Asia) started I got goose bumps. Also M2 just needs to release Batrider on PS4. Come on M2 you can do it nicky!
Yeah batrider needs to happen next!
Batrider or Futari I’d be insanely happy
Fantastic announcement!
Hey Mark, do you have a list of games that you want to 1CC, do a 2-ALL or maybe scorechase by the end of the next year?
Happy holidays!
The big big one for me is finishing my ketsui omote 2 all journey, I might take a month next year and spend it just playing ketsui and streaming it
If i buy this from play asia, or a japanese copy from battle garegga rev.2016, do they play in English?
No, sadly the Japanese copies of the M2 Shot Trigger games do not have an English text option
Sort of, so most of the menus are in English so they are easy to play. However, custom mode menus are not, which can be a pain
DOJ was my favorite shmup for a long time until DFK took it's place, I'm glad to see DOJ is geting all the love it deserves.
Yeah a lot of players haven't played DOJ before, this will be great
Do we have a release date yet?
We don't, though I'm guessing (and this is just a guess) around fall of this year
December 2023!
Torn between pre-ordering the Switch Limited Edition or the PS4 Limited Edition...
Great news indeed i hope we get it on the switch to
Yeah they should bring it to switch for the additional sales
No port for Switch?
I don't think we know yet, it's possible though.
Interesting you say you have PS4 as the best shmup system now. Along with the M2 shot Triggers releases, what titles would you suggest? Really enjoy your channel btw, subbed.
Wow! Have to agree this is definitely in my top 3 of all time 👍
Absolutely!!
@@TheElectricUnderground In my opinion it sits just behind Battle Garegga and Mushihime-sama Futari ... 🤔
