Dolphin Blue from Sammy

It's fun, but the 3D backdrops leave a bit to be desired, considering the yummy 2D characters. And it is fun...I only played the first stage so I can't say if it's Metal Slug-level brillance or whatever, but I would definately play it if it makes it over in the US.

I wouldn't see why Sammy would bother showing it at e3 if it didn't have some interest of bringing it. There was also a puzzle game (Sushi Bar), a 2D-rendered (or was it 3D?) fighter, a beat em up of some sort...the only reason I noticed Dolphin Blue was a) you guuys had mentioned it here and b) it was the coolest looking game out of all those cabinets Sammy had.

I have a video.

Contact me if you want to get it.

@Click: That's GGX 1.5.

Hero: You must mean Demolish Fist.

I played Dolphin Blue at E3. It's Metal Slug...with dolphins. Graphics look and animate well. Lots of action going on the screen, and surprise surprise, characters even have a knife melee attack when they are close to enemies. I wouldn't mind playing a home port.

Sushi Bar was actually pretty cool, as far as puzzlers go. It had a lot going on at once.

Sammy announced they will begin a location test of their Atomiswave arcade action shooter Dolphin Blue in Japan on June 25.

They actually jumped the gun and put it in a few places already.

I think they tweaked it a little more since the last location test about two months ago.
