oh, and the next incoming EGG Console release for Steam: good ol OG Hydlide (PC88) https://store.steampowered.com/app/4555540/EGGCONSOLE_HYDLIDE_PC8801/
after years of murmuring, dormant game publisher Yanoman finally confirmed reissues of their '90s RPG series Aretha... or more specifically, an Edia-produced comp with half the games, because Edia doesn't yet have an emulator for the Game Boy originals (the ones people like), but progress is progress
out July 30 for PS5/4/Switch; will probably be loc'd, but not well
Yanoman's bread&butter is in jigsaw puzzles, hence the puzzle included among the other more usual SE junk
speaking of MSX: Mebius' reissue of Jaleco's Formation Z for MSX hits JP Switch eShop next week https://store-jp.nintendo.com/item/software/D70010000098033 🇯🇵
this is Jaleco MSX game #3 from Mebius—Jaleco's full MSX catalogue includes a few ports by and from Europe (EU-made ports of stuff like Butasan/Psycho Pigs, as well as JP-published versions of a few Ultimate/Rare games like Gunfright), so I'm mostly curious to see if those show up
EGG CONSOLE WATCH: Hertz' sidescrolling action game Psycho World (MSX2), out next week https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kCH7cEDxZOw you might know this one by one of the globally-released conversions for either Master System or Game Gear, retitled Psychic World
specifically, they're reissuing the Takeru version, which accidentally shipped with the debug functionality intact
EGGコンソール サイコワールド MSX2 for Nintendo Switch（EGGCONSOLE PSYCHO WORLD)
"what does this mean for [game x]?"
idk, but my presumption is that their early efforts, at least, will be centred on games they self-ported to X360—which is to say, primarily retakes of games already on PC, on Switch via Lime Wire, etc—but even "just" getting SDOJ or ESPG2 on PC would be a win
Cave's opened a Steam page for Shinyaku DoDonPachi Daifukkatsu / DoDonPachi Resurrection Reignite, a new self-produced version of DFK promising new stages, BGM, characters, assist features & more https://store.steampowered.com/app/4517190/DoDonPachi_Resurrection_Reignite/ no ETA as of yet
for the last while, Cave's higher-ups have been talking about wanting to bring their catalogue to PC—
I was expecting more along the lines of raw ports, licensed ROMs, etc; actual new revisions are way more exciting, & there remain credible STG devs at Cave
Artdink Game Log title # 2's finally dated: Aquanaut no Kyuujitsu, out April 23 on PC & JP Switch eShop https://store.steampowered.com/app/4042750/ARTDINK_GAME_LOG_Aquanauts_Holiday/
again, despite the EN Steam listing/description, these reissues are JP-language-only, ie no Aquanaut's Holiday loc... also, genA|-upscaled video & other assets
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 🇯🇵
