OK, that's not too bad. Thanks.

Hopefully late Spring on PS4/Xbox/Steam.

Hey, does anyone remember this canceled Ghosts 'n Goblins remake for PS1?

I think the difference is the original animation was a simple 2 frame pixel art.

Here they're taking static art and rotating it really quickly to make it move and it looks weird, almost like a cheap Flash animation game.

The art itself in this game is really good, I love how it sorta evokes the old arcade cabinet or the box art, but I'm still not a big fan of the way they've chosen to animate it. I'd rather choppy 2 frame animation (where the limb is actually redrawn in the new position) than the rotation they're using.

Also he should have a red beard like in Ultimate!

Still looking forward to the game, though.
It makes me think of a Victorian era paper/toy/mechanical theater:

Some reviews of PSP Ultimate Ghosts 'n Goblins - I digged through internet archive to find these, glad I did because I has never seen any of them before.

Looks like GnG... Not sure how to feel about the screen size, I'm used to the consoles and PSP games being more cramped I guess.

I know it will kick my ass repeatedly and I won't be able to finish it (like any other GnG game) but... I still think I'll buy it, it looks great

I'll get this (hopefully a physicial version) with hopes that they are planning Demon's Crest Resurrection next.

Really nice to see they went out of their way to get Fujiwara back for this. I remember him being involved with Ultimate GnG was one of the reasons I was interested in that game, lol

Thank you for posting the video, loved the update. Outside of the running animation, I really like everything I see.

Oh wow, I figured this would be from the MM team at Dev2 but it's actually coming from Dev1!

The artstyle really looks great here.

I'm really excited about this. Quite curious what the MSRP will be (guessing $40? Although Mega Man 11 was only $30 iirc) but I expect to be in for this on day 1.

Ooh.. it's this digital only? 🐺 💦

at the end of the new update video, they show the eShop logo... I was hoping for a nice physical version...
