FINALLY some news
*** NEO XYX / NEO Zaikuso MVS ***
There was radio silence about this for a long time, sorry for that. We should have done a newsletter earlier. But we worked hard on the game in the meantime. Besides heavily working on the game play aspects, we also used the last 4 month to double the amount of graphic details in the game. Like a real NEOGEO game deserves everything that moves is now fully animated.
We raised the MEGS count from initial 202 to 264 MEGS. The current version is way way better then what we showed in the last trailer.
The graphic artist is currently designing a 16 bit style short but sweet intro.
After this intro is finished we go into final beta testing and then in production. Production takes around 14 days.
The PCBs and shockboxes are already on stock, the wood shells will arrive within the next 7 days. Most of the printing material is already finished too.
We will be able to announce the release date in October and show a new trailer.
*** NEO XYX Dreamcast ***
As usual we will start porting after we shipped the MVS version to make sure the DC version gets the latest updates. As we are highly experience with porting it will be relative fast done.
The goal is here to ship in December.

This game looks SWEET! From what I read GunLord on the MVS was superior to the Dreamcast port, I'm curious if this time around the Dreamcast version of NEO XYX will be on par / or better than the MVS counterpart.

This is pretty exciting, I preordered it a few days ago. It's far too long to mid-to-late december, or whatever it is that they have this slated for.

I think patching the MVS & subsequent 'AES' versions pushed back the DC release to January.
I posted this over @ Shmups yesterday but here's the email from NGDT...

Dear customers,
we hoped to be able to ship NEO XYX Dreamcast before the winter holidays. But we need to move the release to January.
The new console port features such as portrait mode need more time and our CD printing factory is already at production limit. Even if we would finish today, we would not make it before the Dec. 23th.
We will use the extra time to improve the DC port and add a second portrait screen mode with GPU scaling and a few other new console port options.
This affects the following products:
NEO XYX / ZAIKUSU DC Collector Edition [CE]
NEO XYX / ZAIKUSU DC Limited Edition [LE]
NEO XYX / ZAIKUSU DC Regular Edition [RE]
Newcomer Bundle DC 2013
We will announce the release date in January.
Best regards,
NG : DEV . TEAM

Shoot! I was looking forward to this. Still though, it's better that they complete it.

It's better than not having the portrait mode imo. I have too many cables stuck into the back of my TV to bother rotating it
