Gunlord X announcement trailer for Switch

Way back in August of 2018 we got first word that Neo Geo / Dreamcast game Gunlord was getting an overhaul and landing on the Nintendo Switch.

It's now only days to release, May 22nd is what they're aming for, and here's the announcement trailer:

Battle Garegga goes Limited

M2s fantastic PS4 port of Battle Garegga is getting a release from Limited Run Games on May 10th.

The Limited Collector's Edition will include the soundtrack on both CD and LP and a Blu-ray with a new documentary, M2: The Complete Works, on the M2 game development team. Our old friend Serrax from Bullet Heaven has made the music for the documentary.

Here's the trailer for the documentary:

Battle Garegga is of course already available in physical form for the PS4 in Asia but it's not english-friendly. Depending on pricing (and i'm guessing it's gonna be mighty pricey) I might skip this even though I'd love that documentary.

There's a new channel in town!

The Shmup Guy is a new Youtube channel dedicated to shmup reviews and premieres with a review of Switch'n'shoot for the Nintendo Switch.

The C64 still delivers: Let's Invade 2 & Neutron

First, as evidenced by the review of Let's Invade 2:


And then by exciting new shooter Neutron by the multi-talented Sarah Jane Avory:
