Sell me on it ShmupGAF, I'm willing drop cash on this sucker any minute now!
I saw this earlier today, but now that link no longer works and the game is already gone from the store.
Looks like they may have taken it down because the download was broken somehow.

I wish there was a home port of Daioujou I could play on my PAL machine. I only played that game once on an arcade machine and it was awesome.
Forgot there was a PS2 port. How's that one? I have a modded PS2.

This week's Humble has the tale of alltynex trilogy (Kamui, Reflex, Alltynex Second) in the BTA. Currently $4.41. How are they?
Also, I'm not sure if it would run at the correct speed on a PAL PS2 - I don't know how running NTSC games work in your case.
And over at shmups we just posted the annual top 25 voting results.

Rayforce being in that list is a little shocking - especially beating out stuff like Thunderforce and Batsugun.

Jamestown+ is coming to the PS4, PS3, and Vita on 3/17.
It says only PS4.
It's a better game than either so not sure what's shocking -except for the fact that it's not ranked even higher.
Ha - just saw your post on Shmups about R-Gear... so arguing with you bout this is pointless ;-)

I like Thunderforce but putting any of them above Rayforce? Not sure about that.

Good to see Crimzon Clove making it into the top ten.
I wonder if next year could be interesting too - although voting numbers were down on previous years, some of the older guys can't be bothered anymore which is a shame.
I put Rayforce down to the new generation of players 'discovering' it. It's been really interesting to me seeing some of them suddenly go nuts over titles the rest of us had known for decades.
Doubt I'll ever get to own DaiOuJou. Sigh...And over at shmups we just posted the annual top 25 voting results.

So how did you eventually fall in with IGS and AMI?
Dodonpachi Daioujou was our first game with AMI. AMI is part of a larger company, IGS, located in Taiwan. They had acquired the license from us to make a new Dodonpachi game for their hardware. They wanted to import ESPrade, but that was a completely different sort of PCB, so they just got the license and made their own game – Dodonpachi II.
A lot of Cave fans don’t seem to care for Dodonpachi II.
As it turned out, Dodonpachi II performed extremely well. IGS sold it in Asia and then brought it to the Japanese market a few years later, where we first saw it. That was what convinced us to re-enter the arcade market.
Wait, re-enter? Did Cave quit arcades?
We were strongly considering it. We had reached a point where we were doing mostly contract work, people weren’t interested in publishing our stuff, and the risks for doing publishing ourselves were way too high. We planned to stop after Progear, which is why there were no new arcade games from us until DDP DOJ.
But then Dodonpachi II changed your minds.
After we saw how well it performed, we figured we could make our own new DDP installment and it could likely do just as well.
Here's something interesting - an old (2010) interview with Ikeda, conducted by a westerner and published here in English for the first time:

The interviewer knows her stuff, unlike most other western interviews I've read that just wanted to know about Zero Wing. This part was especially interesting:

Nearly all of Cave's catalog predates MFI and they were not updated to use it to my knowledge.I have a feeling this is going to be negatory, but does anyone know if Cave shmups (or any shmups) on iOS are MFi-compatible? As in, they support controllers of some kind (whether MFi or iCade)?
I suspect Raiden Fighters Aces was, but it's been a while.
That's what I feared. Sucks they dropped support before that, they would've been godly otherwise.Nearly all of Cave's catalog predates MFI and they were not updated to use it to my knowledge.
yeeesh how much work do i gotta do to unlock the fourth ship in Crimzon Clover? only at 38%! man...
To tell you the truth I remember taking a little bit. You just gotta do runs that give you a substantial amount of stars. Getting used to the scoring system really helps. That forth ship makes the game pretty easy... then you'll find yourself going back to the other ships for to 1CC and get top score. But damn.. the first time you use Type Z for a 1CC run, you feel like a damn boss.
I can't even 1cc the game on novice, lol. Although I did just try for the first time and made it to the endboss...
