PISSED! i so badly wanted this to be for the micro but good news for ps2 owners that love some 2D side scrolling action.

Screw that!! Xbox Live Arcade!! I'd fork over cash easily for those titles. <hugs & kisses his treasured Alien Solider import>.

A) It's old. VERY VERY old.
B) Your topic suggests there was some new development.
C) You bastard.

 

[FortNinety]

Yeah old... I was hoping that they also added Radiant Silvergun to the comp.

Nice compilation for PS2, but we'll we even see this on our shores?

Xbox Live Arcade would be better choice too.

The release date was announced today

Something interesting from 1up

1UP: Do you have any involvement with the upcoming Treasure Box compilation coming out in Japan, and if so, is there anything you can tell us about it?

Masato Maegawa: I am involved with the project as a supervisor and will be focusing on ensuring that the three Genesis titles run smoothly. The development will be overseen by SEGA, and we are planning to include various bonus elements.

It's nice to see Treasure is involved and I'm looking forward to the bonus content.

Was Dynamite Headdy 64 just a rumour? Could've sworn I saw it in an old issue of Tricks and Tips.

 

[sykoex]

So does this mean that these games are going to be updated with those awkward polygonal graphics? That'll be interesting. If the play relatively the same as the old versions then i'll probably look into buying this.

This is my first time hearing of such a game.

 

[kaching]

PSP version would be nice too.

 

[SonicMegaDrive]

This is my first time hearing of such a game.

Gamefan mentioned it in one of their many "I was this was a real game" columns.

They even had a 'screenshot', which was merely the Japanese box art(that happened to look like N64 graphics.)

 

[drohne]

i'll definitely pick this up, though i already have the three games in question. i'm used to playing a pal version of alien soldier on an ntsc system, which consequently runs about 20% too fast...i wonder if i'll like the game less at its actual speed.

 

[bishoptl]

If Treasure is closely involved with the porting process, I'll grab it on day one. The previous Sega Ages comp had me a bit worried.

 

[radios shipping overview]

Sega have ditched D3 since then and have been putting out remakes that are much closer to the source material, as well as ports. I think it's pretty safe to say that these will be faithful to the originals.

If done right, I really wouldn't mind seeing a 2.5D version of those games as well as the original versions included. However I'd much rather see this on PSP than PS2.

Only 3 games? That's pitiful compared to the Cap Classics, but i'm still getting it.

When one of the games in the set (Alien Soldier) goes for $200+ regularly on auction sites, I'd say it's worth it to get it with two other games for $23. Since this is a collection of Megadrive/Genesis games that Sega owns the rights to, I suppose they could have included Light Crusader, but that probably bombed too hard for them to bother porting it.
