I ran across some beautiful screenshots of Vanillawares upcoming game, Oboro Muramasa Youtoden and instantly new I had to share them. The game's artistic style looks drop dead gorgeous. Plus it doesn't hurt that I am already a huge fan of Vanillaware's other games Odin Sphere and Grimoire.

Tripwire Interactive's Killing Floor debuted 15 years ago, birthing a critically acclaimed series and a new publishing arm.
VGChartz's Evan Norris: "Is Ocarina of Time as legendary as I remembered it? For the most part, yes. In spite of a handful of missteps — a few obtuse puzzles, some tedious backtracking, and a clunky stealth sequence — I don't believe the last 23 years have been unkind to it. Ocarina remains a brilliant example of the medium, a landmark game that shaped the future of its own franchise and 3D gaming in general. After more than two decades it retains its inventive dungeon design, challenging puzzles, dynamic combat, wistful storyline, unforgettable music, and empowering open-air freedom. I feel confident calling it one of the greatest games of the fifth generation, even if I'm no longer prepared to list it among the five best games ever made."
Pure unadulterated fun. They don't make them like this anymore...especially not the triple A industry.
Back when video rental was a thing, I rented out Majoria's Mask, I never finished it though. I did buy the 3DS version before the eshop shutdown, so maybe one day I'll finally play through the whole thing, it's amazing how well these games hold up though. I briefly played Ocarina of Time for a while and it was really fun.
I really dont get why Developers are not intoo these types of games anymore....
Since everything whent 3D its almost like they abandoned retail games like these on consoles.
It looks amazing, and with the power of today they can create awesome 2D games >_<......
wow, i thought this game dissapeared. I keep forgetting about all the cool games in development for Wii
This guy made odine sphere also. The game is so sweet looking and the circular scrolling is crazy! His art is always top notch too. He plays way too much WOW though LOL. If you know this guy then you know what I'm talking about.
On why did the industry abandon it? Well too much competition and 3d had and still does have more wow power with the mainstream gamers that call them selves hardcore. It takes tons of animation yet their are ways to get this done using 3d tools these days.
For this same reason SF4 could make it on all systems and even the PS2 by way of rendered 3d animation sprites. Most gamers would even know the difference. Hell you can just do the outro and intro with 3d animation to sell it.
