I'm sure Black Label will be DLC at some point.

According to Mihara's blog this will be released before the end of 2009. [updated the main post with this info]

I really hope they put alot of love into this and get all the bugs/kinks worked out before it hits.  It seems Cave is having lot$ of faith in these ports again!

GaijinPunch

It's fairly obvious that DS is a commercial success, even though it's not out yet.  And from the looks of the demo, it's at least not bloody awful like other ports we've seen. 

EOJ

It will be nice to have practice modes.

Looking forward to the arrange mode, whatever it may be (that's the main reason why I buy these ports). They could go crazy with the multipliers, since they don't really have any hardware limitations.

Buying a Japanese Xbox 360 is the best purchase you can do people.I'm excited about the port even if i have MF 1.5/BL at home.
Looking forward about the slowdown  =D

GaijinPunch

1.1 on paper sounds great.  I will probably not bother.
Waiting anxiously to see what's in this mode.  Again, I doubt I'll bother w/ Ultra.  Just no time to dedicate to such a monstrous (and frustrating) feat.

Monouchi

Wow!  =D

Finally will be able to play Futari.
Great that the ports are coming along....now if only Daifukkatsu would come too.

...and 5pb do a great job with Ketsui..

After this, DFK seems a shoe-in as the next full release sometime in 2010.

OSHIT I can finally play this!! I'm pretty sure I'll buy a XBOX360 for it.

jpj

no keyboards compatible with the 360 - you lose!

Kaneda

This is the one I was waiting for. Cave's best game will finally be accessible to the rest of the nerds and hopefully it'll be done without too much shit wrong with it. I guess I'll buy that 360 now (yea yea, as if 3 other Cave ports wasn't reason enough, but Futari is the funnest by far).

I sure could go for a Saturn pad -> 360 adapter right about now.

lgb

I think it's high time I got a 360 soon. For some reason, I expect either DFK or Ibara to come next, and maybe DFK gets a Black Label.

RGC

I'm quite surprised at the minimal excitement over this, especially considering how many people tend to rate this game in their top 10. This time last year, who'd have dreamed of Futari and Ketsui getting ported!?! Amazing news!  =D

EOJ

Seems to be a good deal of excitement to me! I own the PCB, so it's not a big deal to me, but I'm happy more people
will be able to play a port of this great game (even if the slowdown is destined to be messed up, judging by every port (including DS) that Cave has done).

welcome to 2007  ;)

such a shoddy console doesn't deserve so much love!  i think for myself, and a few others here, the best thing about ports is it bringing down the pcb prices..   =D

RGC

I can relate - and I'll probably continue to mix n match, especially if the boards come down enough.

Same sentiments here. Great news as more people will be able to enjoy a fantastic game but I'll stick with my PCB for now. It'll be interesting to see how the slowdown turns out though, especially for Ultra.  >:D

No shit ! But it's the one game I might accept to play with another controller. Unless Starcraft 2 comes out at the same time, then screw futari !

So Mihara/Arika is making this Futari 360 port, not 5bp or Cave?

No. Why would you think that? Arika isn't making any CAVE ports.
The Futari 1.5 port is being made by CAVE, just like the Deathsmiles port (which is excellent, by the way).

Ok, well, I just wondered, since you mentioned earlier in this thread that Mihara had written something about a release in 2009, I thought that maybe he was involved with making the port. But anyway, thanks for clearing that up!  :)

GaijinPunch

Mihara is the self-appointed Cave spokesman/critic for any type of port or new game.  He will comment on anything, and I'm going to have to give the guy props for being brutally honest when need be.  Watching Japanese people blow each other in the name of saving face gets really old.
