DrunknMunky Veteran Posted January 28, 2009 Veteran Share Posted January 28, 2009 By Michael McWhertor North Americans may be getting a triple-shot of Raiden style shmupping, positive word delivered via multiple retail listings for the still Japan-only top-down shooter Raiden Fighter Aces. One of the casualties of region-locked Xbox 360 software, Raiden Fighter Aces was released in Japan last March, bringing the decade-old Raiden Fighters, Raiden Fighters 2: Operation Hell Dive and Raiden Fighters Jet home on a single disc. And it wasn't cheap either, weighing in at a hefty ?6,800. Looks like publisher Zoo Games might be the one smart enough to bring it out of Japan, charging a meager $29.99 USD for the compilation. We're desperately hoping it's true and praying for other publishers of niche titles like this to come to their senses and either region unlock their shooters or get their US subsidiary's ass in gear. Oh, and Raiden IV while you're at it. Source: Kotaku> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pc_Madness Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 I think it was Raiden 2 that I used to play at the arcade at uni, great game. Had to settle with that 1942 flying sim instead since this wasn't out here yet. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
