It's great overall, just not 100% arcade perfect in gameplay when in arcade mode. Occasionally an enemy might fire at you from offscreen, which doesn't happen on Dreamcast/Naomi. In stage 4's boss battle, your reticle has a wonky aim on the boss cannons meaning you can't take them out so easily.
The 16:9 New Order mode is where it's really at here. NO has less screen panning and some extra enemies. Load times aren't bad.

Wait, this shit ended up being a retail release? Not PSN/XBLA? Fucking hell that's stupid.

So this is coming out in Europe this fall. Which means a cheaper import and English localization, at the very least.

That puts the "pro" in "procrastination."

Woo, retail edition! With Tokyo Jungle, One Piece, and Legasista all being PSN-only, I was beginning to think all quirky imports were going to be done that way. I may not need to own as many games physically as I used to, but there are still some that I'd like to have sitting on a shelf.

$39.99 retail? I can deal with that.

Yeah, it's a little steep, but worth it given the quality of the game.

Steep? I'm used to importing.

Preorder pages have popped up for the PS3 version on Amazon and Newegg. Some CAGs have reported code BTENANF35 will take $10 off at Newegg, but the code didn't work for me. Maybe it will work for you?
