Old games, new games, mix of both? I'm hoping ESP Ra.De. gets on there somehow at least.

[archie4208]

Probably mobile ports.

I imagine the stuff they ported to 360 is probably the easiest to port, doubt they're jumping in with a new title. background image on the website looks like mushihimesama, idk.

I fucked with their mobile parts a lot and own most of them. Hope these are 360 ports though. Will buy all of them too.

I hope Dodonpachi Resurrection gets ported (first game I ever imported and probably spent way too much time with it too). I'm sure that Akai Katana is going to get ported and that one is excellent

[Trent Dole]

I'd be all up ons a steam ver of Akai since for some reason I never got the 360 port.

Looks like I'm thankfully wrong

Wow, this thread blew up quickly! To answer some concerns in this thread:

Yes, CAVE is really coming to Steam.

No, it's not going to be a half-baked iOS port. The port appears to be a faithful recreation of a fan-favorite arcade game. I can't say yet if it's 100% arcade accurate because I've never had the opportunity to play the PCB of this particular game in person, but there will be opportunities prior to the launch of the game for players to evaluate the game for themselves and to assist with making the game as accurate as it can be.

Pricing hasn't been finalized yet, but historically our games have (in my opinion) been very affordable. For reference, our upcoming port of Eschatos will be 15 USD (or 20 USD for deluxe ver.) and that was originally a 40 to 60 dollar game.

Feel free to ask any other questions you might have - if I can answer them, I will.

More information when I get it!

Cheers folks.

Ketsui?

this is just wonderful, wonderful news.

if I had to hazard a guess, they'd start with the stuff that's already has 360 ports to work with. But really, they've got so dang many game they can put on that storefront its like tossing darts to figure out which ones will get there first. Its also terrific as shit news that Cave might just possibly be swayed from their current mobile focus to port these suckers onto the PC.

Double Dealing Character is available on Playism, but for some reason it's not translated and it's been reported the existing fan translations would cause the game to break. Not sure if that was ever fixed though.

and its good. This is my first Cave shooter, and already I like it lots.

I've got to stage 3 on Maniac once. 

Trying to do it 'legit' and not credit feed because that seems to be the kiss of death with me and shmups.
