Treasure's Ikaruga on DC

[joako]

guys, i know many of you believe (and with good reason) that petitions don't do anything towards a cause...

here, however, i see no other way to convince Treasure to bring the arcade game Ikaruga (pseudo-sequel to radiant silvergun) to the DC..

the conversion would make sense, since the game uses naomi hardware, it wouldn't cost Treasure much to make a home version of it..

I don't think it would be out of reason to think treasure might do something like this.. they released radiant silvergun in the final days of the saturn, and that turned out to be legendary..

all i ask is that you do a small part to bring this game home... don't let it fall through the cracks..

I must say, looks #### fine

looks like some sort of sequel (or part 2, or something)

either way, is nuts

If they never bring this out for DC, ill buy the arcade some day. I hope they do though cause arcades are REALY expensive to buy

 

[SkankinMonkey]

yea, arcades generally are several million dollars

Lots of sarcastic remarks tonight SkankinMonkey, here and on the NX board.

truth is, naomi or not, it would ultimately cost treasure about the same to port the game to xbox, cube, ps2 or whatever..

porting the code is the easy/cheap part (cuz coders like me get paid in peanuts).. its the design, testing, production, marketing, etc where the bucks come in..
