Shikigami No Shiro 2 Gamecube Special Edition

An awesome japanese shmup/shooter and one of the few released for the Nintendo Gamecube. This is also known as Castle Shikigami 2 on the PS2. This video is in 2 parts. Do check out the even better second part coming soon :)
It was nice to pass the 200 subscribers mark. If I reach 250, perhaps I will do a new room tour vis or a Q & A.

Looks like you are playing this using a Freeloader disc (the garbled subtitles gives this away). Does it save to the memory card OK?

@KJUYSH Yes I am using the freeloader disc for this one. It saves ok to the memory card.

What are the differences between the gamecube and ps2 versions?

[ash81b4u]

@GigaPepsiMan I don't think there really is any difference in the game. I always seem to think the gamecube versions of games just seem that little bit better tho I can't explain it. I have the budget PS2 version known as Mobile Light Force 2 and don't see much change.

Christ i love special edition packages like these!..especially Japanese ones, very sweet. Must admit, never played this title but from footage i've seen on YT etc. Certainly looks like an worthy edition for any shmup fan imo! Really enjoyed the screens mate too, always thought the Game Cube was very underrated personally. Thanks for this one. :)

@MENDEZ1628 I preferred the gamecube over PS2 for most games. This is worth getting if you have the right system. Glad you liked this one :)

@ash81b4u Well I think the original is a bit ropey that's all, quite like 3, but 2 seems to be a different kettle of fish. It's just more polished and balanced

@poptartlove2010 Thanks Wendy :)

@bluetonic78 Yeah jap box art for games are the biz. The third set of stages are alot harder as the scenery moves about aswell.
