Treasure's 30th Anniversary - My Predictions

Japanese game developer Treasure just had its 30th anniversary on June 19th. They've announced that they are releasing some sort of "highly requested title". This will be their first game since 2014's Gaist Crusher God. What could it be?

My first guess is that the new title will be a Gunstar Heroes game. I actually don't have a particularly strong connection with Treasure, but Gunstar Heroes seems to be the fan-favorite. Another strong contender is Ikaruga. Either of these is a likely guess! My personal favorite Treasure game is Mischief Makers, so I'd love to see another one of those. Also, my first Treasure game was the relatively obscure Light Crusader, which was also the first RPG I ever played. Lastly, Sin & Punishment has recently received some new eyes on it thanks to being a part of the Nintendo Switch Expansion Pack. This is another game I really like by them, though it's one I've only played in recent years!

Based on the tweet from Treasure themselves, there is no real info here, so we will really have to wait and see. It's possible this could even just be a remaster of sorts instead of an entirely new game. I'll be fine with anything that isn't Wario World!

Tekko Together

EDIT: This article was originally published on June 30th, 2022 but has been updated on July 8th. I was not initially happy with everything. Unfortunately, due to being extremely busy and not feeling well, and now having developed COVID in the last few days, I am only now getting everything together. My apologies! Tekko (formerly Tekkoshocon) is Pittsburgh's anime convention since 2003. In the almost 20 years of existence, Tekko has grown from just a few hundred people in a hotel to over 10,000 attendees inhabiting the David L. Lawrence Convention Center for four days! Despite this growth, Tekko has fallen on some hard times recently, and, should you choose to accept this mission, requires the assistance of the community. COVID has done a number on several conventions, and Tekko is no different. Convention Center regulations have caused what historically been a spring convention to occur in the summer. Now also the DLLCC is requiring significantly more payment upfront, causing Tekko...

PlayStation Basement #90 - Mighty Hits Special

This review was originally published on the  Console Purist  Facebook group on May 16th, 2020. Another week, another PlayStation Basement! PlayStation Basement is a weekly review of games for the original PlayStation that are somewhat obscure, unusual, or unknown. Games are rated Good, Bad, or Neutral to emphasize the review itself. Now, let’s go! I’ve had a few Japanese PlayStation games that I’ve owned for a while without trying them. I decided to try one for today’s review - Mighty Hits Special . A light gun game developed and published by Altron in 1999 in both Japan (technically the full title for this version is Mighty Hits Special (Pop Collection 1280 Vol. 4) ) and Europe, Mighty Hits Special is an enhanced version of the original Mighty Hits game from 1996 for Saturn and PlayStation. It takes after the Point Blank games by Namco. It might take after those games too much . We’ll get to that though. The cover art on both regions is kind of generic. Despite this, ...

PlayStation Basement #45 - Ballerburg: Castle Chaos

This review was originally published on the  Console Purist  Facebook group on July 6th, 2019. If you are in the United States, I’m sure you’ve heard fireworks during the last few days. We’ll be launching some things with today’s PlayStation Basement review of an odd or obscure game for the original PlayStation. Games are rated Good, Bad, or Neutral. Let’s go! Today’s game is Ballerburg: Castle Chaos . This game is a 3D reimagining of Eckhard Kruse’s 1987 artillery strategy game Ballerburg for the Atari ST. Because the original game was released into the public domain from the beginning, this 2001 version had no input from Kruse. The developers for this one were Ascaron Entertainment who also published the initial PC version in Europe in December 2001. Phoenix Games published the PlayStation version, also in Europe, in April 2003, and Mud Duck Productions published it in North America in December of the same year. Mud Duck is another budget publisher like A1 Games, ...
