		Is unofficially supposed to come out on 30.05.02 in Japan.Still waiting for Treasure to confirm the anouncement. (Edited by ShinJedah at 2:48 pm on April 3, 2002)

		Fabrizo	Apr 3, 2002
		Where did you hear that?

		Dyne	Apr 3, 2002
		that date is for the arcade version right?

		Fabrizo	Apr 3, 2002
		Seeing as how this is the Dreamcast section of the board, im assuming he means a DC version of the game, after all, the game was built to run on DC in the first place.

		ExCyber	Apr 3, 2002
		Yeah, never mind the fact that the arcade version's been out in Japan for months...

		Fabrizo	Apr 3, 2002
		Yea, that to. I hope it is true though about it comming out for DC, I would definetly import it if it did.

		Dyne	Apr 3, 2002
		well i guess im just an idiot then havent seen any bit of info anywhere saying it was being developed for the DC mind you.....

		It's a Naomi game. One of the primary reasons to use a system like Naomi (or ST-V, for which Radiant Silvergun was released) is for compatibility with the console version of the hardware. AFAIK, almost all Naomi games have a DC port, and some are actually ports from Dreamcast IIRC.

		Sweet!! Treasure is still alive!!! I can't wait to get my hands on it.

		Dyne	Apr 4, 2002
		guys check out NCS.....they believe it too. oh man....my DC needs this game!

		ShinJedah	Apr 4, 2002
		Nice thing to post some news on the Dreamcast board...i didn't think of so many replyes...

		Gear	Apr 4, 2002
		Whoa, a serious import if that's true...

		ShinJedah	Apr 5, 2002
		Its true...its been confirmed by many sources..

		alpharogue	Apr 5, 2002
		I checked out some movies of the arcade in action; the backgrounds and gameplay scream radiant silvergun, but they are a lot more impressive. Check them out here: http://symphony.gamersgraveyard.com/main/features/...

		Looks amazing! Another great import, and I swore I was finished buying dreamcast games after Shenmue 2... I have a couple questions, does anyone know how many levels/bosses and if Ikaruga is 2 player? Thanks.

		Fabrizo	Apr 6, 2002
		Their is no way they would make the game non-two player. If it was I would lose a considerable amount of interest in it, cause that was one of the best part in RS for the Saturn.

		alpharogue	Apr 6, 2002
		It is definitely a 2-player blastfest; Treasure would not have it any other way! After Radiant's inspiring awe in the plethora of game options-(dogs, etc...) They will have to put some of the same effort if not more in Ikaruga for Dreamcast.

		ShinJedah	Apr 7, 2002
		This is how it goes:Ikaruga has been anounced for the PS2 too,so i think their just bringin it out for the DC fans that want it (in a limited number of games printed),and the PS2 Version is supposed to bring in the cash..like Sega did it with Space Channel 5 Vol. 2... It will have a 2 Player mode.Thae arcade has one,the home version has one

		venom	Apr 7, 2002
		Great! I love 2p on shooters, I didn't know cause all te videos I've seen had a single person playing. So, does anyone know haw long it is?

		alpharogue	Apr 8, 2002
		ShinJedah, thanks for the updates! I am sure I speak for all shooter fans when we all say that it is nice to see another awesome 2-D shooter hit today's mainstream market. Treasure kicks serious ass!
