Cool. Are they doing a physical release?

[ChuChu Flamingo]

I really hope these do a physical release for this, would be jawesome. I am very excited to see they picked SNES/SFC as the platform for their game.

Shoulda put this on the f***ing Saturn. Yeh.

If they do a physical I would much prefer a cartridge than a cd tbh.

But yeah Saturn would've been perfect especially considering the 2d powerhouse it is +6 button controller handed down from the gods.

It might just be me, but I get a darkstalkers/vampire hunter feeling from this game in a good way.

I'm seeing a very early build of a game here. Very encouraging, but not a final product.


And as for Saturn...well, the difference between Saturn and SFC is basically how many manhours you can come up with. Sure it's CD sound, but that just means you need to make better music somehow. And sure, way more animation can be stored, but who's going to draw it all?

I'd like to know more about this project when it becomes available.

My interest has been piqued. This might be something I buy, big fan of the genre.

A Kickstarter for a USA SNES physical version of the game.

Here's what the Super Famicom Box artwork will look like.

You're a little late.

My God that art sucks. That really really sucks.

I still don't understand this huge need for them to make a US version.  It's a fighting game, not some epic RPG.

Did you forget about US-only Collectards?

If you look at the details of the kickstarter, you'll see that it's for smoke grey cart shells, gold plated cart shells and authentic looking SNES style cardboard box with manual.

nintendoage types pay top dollar for low quality repros and are always looking to discover "hidden gems" (yet another game they've never heard of) to buy.

If the game was really complete by the time they started the  SNES kickstarter, then it seems that the game really does run at a choppy framerate and is likely unplayable.

I backed because I wanted to give former SNK devs a shot on making a cool new SNES fighter, but all evidence points to this being totally underwhelming.

They should do LE numbered editions so the NA collectards will line up to pay premium.

That's pretty much what the kickstarter was for. The game was already completed and being published in Japan.
