It seems he Dreamcast didn't get enough votes

as much as i would like to have had it on the dreamcast there was never a hope of it coming out on dc.
i always thought this game would see a ps2 release,considering raiden3 was released for ps2 and is on the taito typex hardware.

Awesome, more shmups is always a good thing, especially with Raiden.

This reminds me of a certain 3-game collection that was released on disc and was region rocked... I don't think I'll be able to play this on my 360 any time soon.

Oh well, I still prefer Dai Ou Jou and even if that is region locked I'll still have my PS2.

quick update it seems raiden 4 will have live support and 2 extra stages that were not in the arcade game and of course live support.

Sweet, I love these games even if I've never beaten one.

first raiden4 vid is up.
