Silly question. Has anyone ever wanted to play this but couldn't due to the price of the GBA original being completely nuts?

I kind of have a thing for side-scrolling ninja games anyway.

Edit:

I guess I don't need to say this given the last sentence above, but I'll add this as soon as it get it.

Still, outside the remaster work to Suikoden I & II, I'm guessing this is mostly what Konami is good for these days? Eh, I guess the Dominus collection took some work given some of it elements (dual screens, touch screen, seals, etc.)

I have always wanted Ninja Five-O, but it was too expensive when I discovered its existence lol. Awesome that we get a modern port with the soundtrack

They sent me an e-mail with the dates above, only for it to be shipping in a few days. So yeah, unless something else happens, the release date/month will be June.

Got this today along with my physical copy of SaGa Frontier 2 from play-asia. I have Thursday off so I'll get some scans up then.

Also, I'm not sure if anyone noticed this when the game was up on Limited Run, but the back of the game case says the game has a remastered soundtrack. I was unaware they were going to touch the audio all. I'll have to see if you can switch between them when I play it.

Also also, not really important, but the Switch version of Fashion Police Squad is set to ship soon. I'm still pretty disappointed LRG didn't get to do any release for it's OST - would have taken a CD or vinyl of that.

I have to laugh here. I tried playing the game, but it was on the Switch 2. Umm... yeah, this game has serious problems and is unplayable on it. I'll have to go back to my Switch Lite.

A few things:

I was playing the game and I honestly can't tell much of a difference with the audio in regards to what I said above.

Also,

It shouldn't be much of a surprise, but this release is kind of a sloppy mess. I take it we're too good for fade outs now? Yeash.
