Same here. I actually thought I was the only person who loved this game, because I never hear anybody else taking about it.
LOL. Can I have your trash?
Perfect haha.

Saw no release date. Do we think we'll get it this year or next? Just wondering if they'll surprise us

Someone remind me which Bombcast was talking about Windjammers. I want to listen to it again.

Just now seeing this. God, this is so great. PlayStation just keeps finding gamer fan service dreams and turns them into reality.
This is great news, obviously, but I wonder how pissed the Disc Jam team are.

Gaf, rejoice.
The french Windjammer community helped with the port. I don't have time to translate the tweet in its entierety, but they're basically saying that the port is as close as arcade perfect as possible.

Nous avons attendu ce jour très longtemps.
Nous fêtions il y a quelques semaines nos 4 ans d’existence et ce jour représente pour nous l’aboutissement d’une année de travail conséquente compte tenu de la taille de la communauté et son statut de communauté de jeu de niche.
L’aventure était déjà belle avec l’organisation du premier tournoi officiel à 64 joueurs du Stunfest et le sponsoring de DotEmu, le déplacement à d’autres évènements tels que la R-Cade Cup et la Bat’cade qui ont remis en avant l’E-Sport sur les jeux Retro Arcade ces dernières années. La mise en place et l’organisation de la Tossanga League fut aussi un gros challenge.
La communauté s’est toujours mobilisée pour se déplacer partout en France, continuer de vanter les qualités de ce jeu qu’on aime tant et assurer une présence en ligne pour accueillir les nouveaux arrivants. Et ce n’est pas passé inaperçu…
Car le sponsoring de DotEmu n’était en fait que la partie émergée de l’iceberg. Ils ont partagé notre amour du jeu et la vision E-Sport que nous en avions. Ils sont donc venus à notre rencontre avec un projet inimaginable il y a quelques années. D’autant plus que nous pensions les droits perdus ou du moins inaccessibles.
Ce projet, c’est la sortie de Windjammers sur PS4/PS Vita ! Et quelle annonce pour un évènement d’une envergure telle que la Playstation Experience avec ce trailer fou et une exposition médiatique sans précédent pour le jeu.
Nous avons participé activement tout au long du développement en donnant notre avis, testant et en proposant des features. Le jeu est aussi Arcade Perfect que possible (Croyez-nous ! on les a pas lâché et on a retourné le jeu). Il a le « Windjammers France Seal of Approval », rien que ça.
Comme il nous semblait inconcevable que seul un mode versus local soit disponible, on peut d’ores et déjà vous dire que vous pourrez vous tuer en ligne, et avec un ranking s’il vous plait ! Probablement le meilleur moyen de jauger votre niveau.
Plus besoin de posséder une borne ou une Neo Geo pour doser le jeu à l’infini. Même si on vous y encourage quand même parce que c’est bien.
Nous remercions DotEmu pour cette opportunité qui signifie beaucoup pour nous, ainsi que pour le soutient passé, présent… et futurOn n’oubliera pas de sitôt les merveilleux lots du Stunfest 2016.
Tout ça pour dire qu’on est super fiers et qu’on espère que la communauté va continuer de s’étendre grâce à ces nouveaux supports. Les tournois devraient être plus faciles à organiser un peu partout.
On vous invite donc tous à venir nous rejoindre en ligne dès qu’il sera disponible et à vous déplacer à tous les tournois à proximité. Au plaisir de vous croiser pour échanger quelques frisbees !

If you haven't played this, pleeeeeeeease get it and try it for yourself with a friends, because this shit is so fun. I discovered it a few weeks ago and have wasted many an hour just messing around in it since. It is fantastic.

Biggest news of this generation to me. Windjammers is one of my all-time greatest favourite multiplayer games, along with Saturn Bomberman and Tetris Battle Gaiden.
That's great! As a French speaker myself and a former/lapsed member of that community, I can confirm that this is very positive news. No worries to be had here. If Windjammers France says the port is arcade perfect, then it's arcade perfect.

In every clip with the guy, it always shows the British flag, except once, when he is playing vs Mita, so there's hope
To clarify a few things : Giantbomb, altough they popularised the game in the US in the recents years, had nothing to do with this release, not even a little.
Dotemu has always liked the game and the growing french Windjammers "e-sport" scene was the trigger for them. (search stunfest windjammers on youtube).
Two member of Windjammers France were asked by dotemu to test the game in their offices, and gave precious feedback.
They did so on their own account, and gave their personal opinions, there was no consultation or representation of the rest of the community's opinions prior.to the betatest.
From the scarce feedback I had, I'm personally anticipating a game with perfect visual/framerate, with probably 1-2 frame of imput lag compared to mvs (not taking into account monitor lag). These are just my personal expectations and nothing official of course.
I don't think this official article was posted it here yet? It sums it up well. http://blog.us.playstation.com/2016...s-on-ps4-and-ps-vita-with-online-multiplayer/

I don't know why I thought this had released already. Can't wait to play this.
A fun version of pong, at the very least.
Windjammers is to Pong what a modern fighting game is to International Karate.
Windjammers came out about 2 weeks ago under the name "Disc Jam".
Not funny. It's not as good. I'm​ playing Disc Jam a lot.
