@[email protected] I remember importing the Japanese version on Dreamcast only to find out the GameCube has a native PAL version. All that time waiting for a Japan exclusive version to arrive and I could've picked up a local copy on GameCube instead.

Still it's a stellar game, one of my favourite shmups, I double dipped with the PAL version on GameCube too after.

I got it at launch when it released in Japan on Dreamcast. no regrets.
Same with Bangaio, which was my first Dreamcast import as I thought "well, surely this little 2D masterpiece will never come to the west".

Cue a European release a little later on... ๐Ÿ˜
