Excellent review, Ed! I cannot thank you and Mike (Aerodynamisch) for essentially being spokespersons for CAVE and their amazing shoot 'em up games. I bought Deathsmiles a while back, and I love that game to death. I also recently imported DoDonPachi Resurrection and have found the same level of enjoyment for that game as I did Deathsmiles. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for a region-free release of Akai Katana! :)
@relewis2011 Cave has an excellent library of games for sure. I'm also keeping fingers crossed for a North American playable Akai Katana Shin from Rising Star Games.
Absolutely loved this port of course seeing we were battling on Game Center. Sadly I upgraded my iPhone and lost my progress. Had to replay the game on Original Maniac to unlock Ultra.
Before I could do that I got Steins;Gate and I was sold on that for three weeks.
I prefer this one over the sequel but it's mainly becus of the love I have for the Stages and music. I can't wait for dai ou jou to release on ios also check out ray force which is another awesome shmup (not cave) to be released!!!
This looks very good, but I've tried playing games on iOS format before and I just cannot seem to get the hang of touch-screen control =/ iPod's just seem to hate my fingers...So I'll be getting this for the PS2 instead. Thanks for showing it off though, it looks awesome! =D
Great review! I'm def gunna check this out on my ipod touch.

Oh, yeah. About CAVE. I love them like tobacco. It frustrates me as hell but I still love it.

I downloaded the Lite version a few weeks ago and while I thought it was fun, I didn't buy it.

looks like a nice shooter. too bad Cave doesn't optimize their games for the ipad or else I'd buy it again for a larger screen.

Nothing good ever comes to the Android market place. Reason why I switch over to an iPhone because of the ridiculous amount of apps for it.

@jumblejunkie The Japan version is region free for Xbox 360. Last I checked Play-Asia had it for about $30 I think.
