Not sure of any of the details yet, but the game is called Goku Makaimura.

For those who don't know Japanese, the games have been:
Makaimura (Ghosts'n'Goblins)
Dai Makaimura (Ghouls'n'Ghosts), dai means big
Chou Makaimura (Super Ghouls'n'Ghosts), chou means super
and now
Goku Makaimura, goku means extreme

i never thought i'd see the day - i'm so happy.
*awaits confirmation*
 
One of the game series I hate and love so much at the same time. Kinda like my view on all oldschool platforming games that kick my ass. For some reason it makes it all the more worthwhile to master. Fuck score, I just hope I survive!

yeeeeeeeeeeah
but we want old school 2d hardness action. :)

Affirmative.

PLEASE DONT FUCK THIS UP

Also, I hope it's not just an 'extreme' version of an older Ghouls game. I WANT A BRAND NEW GAME BASED ON THIS IP IN BEAUTIFUL 2D, AND ALL ITS CHALLENGING GLORY.
 
This needs to be 2D sprites/backgrounds with some 3D effects thrown in.

It also needs to return the up/down attacks that were taken out in Super G&G.

Yeah, as if GnG needed to be any harder! =)

No, in this case they'd just make the main character have glowy red eyes and add a shit ton of blood, and a new 'endless mode' for wifi.
 
I wonder if it's just a Maximo port since all Capcom releases are ports on PSP.

That being said Maximo is an AAA series so even ports of those games would be better than most of the other ports they're churning out.
 
If the game is called Makaimura, then I don't think it will be Maximo... Capcom used the name Maximo for their PS2 game, so this is something different IMHO.
 
Leading up to E3, the idea of resurrecting (heh) the GnG series was really gaining momentum within Capcom (Japan) and ultimately got the green light. We'll see the UFO catcher type prize machine at JAMMA, the "2.5D" PSP game, and a fully 3D cross-platform game is in development in Japan for X360 and PS3.
 
if its 2.5d, awesome. i loved that game on the genesis.

and a 3d version for next-gen? wonder if its based on that online game that never saw the light of day?

Couldnt have said it better.
 
Man these PSP announcements just keep getting better and better. Worms, Lemmings, Ghouls and Ghosts... Keep 'em coming, these upgraded classics are where it's at.

Probably some 3D effort ala Maximo.

If it's 2D...

DS GAF forum meltdown. Gentleman...start your flaming torches!

what are the other games?
 
Jonny, just out of curiosity, what does "Nazo" mean? As in Nazomakaimura Incredible Toons, the obscure psx/Saturn GnG-themed port of the PC game Incredible Toons, which itself was a sort of spinoff of The Incredible Machine:

I finished Ghouls & Ghosts on Genesis, Super G&G on SNES, and the re-release on the GBA. Stop whining.

Well, all it means is you're better than me.

I just suck at the games, and (this is really more of the reason), I HATE replaying the same level more than once. I like constantly being introduced into new areas and artwork... repeating stuff is just painful. So normally, that means I dislike overly challenging games.
 
surprise!
it is 2D
it is brand new

capcom, what are you thinking??
2D Ghouls'n'Ghosts for PSP and 3D biohazard 1 for NDS :lol

Still the prospects of new games actually using the the higher resolution for 2D is damn enticing!
 
Good news...I was only expecting SFZ3 from Capcom but it seems this could be another good game to look at...No puzzles please...
