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.....

 ExCyber Apr 3, 2002
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:

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!
