NCS didn't expect Cave's Ketsui - Kizuna Jigoku Tachi game to be revived after six years had passed since its debut in Japanese arcades. It's on the way however with Japanese distributors starting official preorders for the Nintendo DS retail version on Tuesday.Demos of the game released by publisher Arika have shown that the NDS hardware is fully capable of rendering the streaming waves of bullets that fill the game's stages without any noticeable lag or slowdown. Although the coin-op original was a vertical aspect shooter, the NDS version doesn't look bad at all with its horizontal aspect screen. The most important facet for us however is the speed of the game and we're pleased in that respect but we'll give the game a thorough examination once it's in stock.
Ketsui Death Label will include a single-player mode, a multi-player mode, and a training mode which will help beginners learn how to twitch.
The Nintendo DS version of Ketsui will be bundled with a bonus Master Play DVD which shows an expert blowing through the game without losing a single ship. Preorders are welcome to ship on October 23, 2008 at JPY5524 or US$53.90 from NCS.
