If its gonna make ANY $$ in NA, the difficulty is gonna have to be toned down. WAY down.

And it probably will

It's a well known fact that gamers in North America generally like their titles harder than they do in Japan. Games are frequently "toughened up" for American audiences.

I dont think that the game would be dumbed down at all. Maybe they will add a beginnercrybaby mode but you don't have to play it.

That's EXACTLY what i said on the Shmups board!

It'll be for those who really are too lazy to use two buttons. They can do it all with that damn C button!

While we're at it, imagine Ikaruga EX Edition for PSOne or something...:idea:

Cough... really?

One, two, three, four... five! Five Ikaruga threads on the first page of the main board! Now let's be twice as annoying and make them all Sticky! (Eww... not like that, I mean, it is the second coming and all... Sorry, horrible puns abound.)

I mean, I find it funny that there are so many threads on this game, but I'll bet it's already pissing off some people. This shouldn't take long...

All the shit should be moved here for organizational purposes. Way too confusing.

*Ahem*

Aside from some Working Design tomfoolery, name another company that has upped a shooter's difficulty for the US. *-neo

Eh... actually that would be more confusing... I'd prefer that it be organized by content. All impressions in a thread, all NCS whining in another so I don't have to hear it, all "I just got my shipping confirm!" in its own so that we all don't have to waste our time reading it, etc.
