ININ's loooong-delayed port of Taito's 2005 arcade action game Spica Adventure is finally, really done: it'll be out on consoles on April 14 https://www.nintendo.com/us/store/products/spica-adventure-switch/ no idea who actually handled the port, but they're basically just porting it as-is

more specifically, this is a port of the Nesica version, itself a basic conversion of the Type X OG—both PC-based, so one would presume this new port would be rather straightforward, but ya never know…it's been ~3yrs since they announced it, after all

curiously, it still hasn't been announced for release in Japan, either, and Taito themselves hasn't acknowledged it at all

ININ's also bundling it with their Ratalaika-emulated reissue of the Bubble Bobble/Rainbow Islands-adjacent PC Engine game Parasol Stars, which has been out for a minute: there's a physical "Parasol Superstars" 2-pack & a digital bundle that'll launch at the same price as Spica on its own

btw, Spica Adventure's derived from a feature phone game from 2003, which G-MODE reissued on Switch~1yr ago https://store-jp.nintendo.com/item/software/D70010000084941 🇯🇵
