@JM_NewBreed Yes for us Indie Neogeo devs these prices are impossible to do on our own. More so for 2d „AAA „ Indie Games like Kraut Buster with a small team working for 4+ years on it. I‘m looking forward to see the new game PCBs

海外インディーズでは300~500ドルが主流なので 30000なら安い方かもしれませんね😅 それでも当時レベルのクオリティの作品であれば売れる? いや当時でもMVSの売上があっての家庭用価格でしたから 家庭用だけで価格を抑えるのは難しいでしょうね… だからこそMVS(業務用)の復活も必要だと思います。

これネオジオ復刻のカートリッジの値段についての発言なんですが、たしかに旧作の復刻ではあるんですが、まじめにやるとするとQAとか諸々含めて、権利処理がSNK自社だからロハにできることを考えても、安すぎる気はしてるんですよね。どういうからくりなんだろう。サードパーティは無理なんじゃないのかしら。

@pastel_orbit Thank you for the technical details. I always wondered if some Neogeo games run code from RAM. It makes sense that shooting games do to save all CPU cycles possible. We used loop unrolling a lot for the vram updates on the 60 fps 3d CGI backgrounds for Fast Striker and Razion.

Izu@ゲームプログラマが語る
自己書き換えプログラムによる最適化の話 BLAZING STARとPULSTARをリードエンジニアとして担当致しました PULSTARはそもそもVIEW POINTからの系譜であり、そちらへもテクニカルアドバイザーとして参戦しておりましたが 晴れて自分の作品としてPULSTARを実装し、BLAZING STARへ昇華していきました BLAZING STARもとても好評を頂き大変有り難かった が、NEO GEOという全く同じハードウェアでPULSTARを超える為に、何百もの工夫をしました 当時のゲームプログラム業界は血で血を洗う最適化と表現の群雄跋扈時代 一サイクルでも多く稼ぐ、芸術的な、それこそ思考競技と言える様な切磋琢磨時代でした そんな中一つ、現代では馴染みのないテクニックを プログラムコードは通常RAMへ展開されますが、という事は、自分自身を書き換えるプログラムもあり得ます これはその一つである弾幕を扱うループ処理 言語は勿論MC68000アセンブラ 数十~数百を彩る弾幕を、現代で言えばそれこそECSの様にキャッシュを意識したコーディングが出来れば良いのですが、なにせ当時です 最適化の肝はCPUクロックの削減徹底 for 弾 in 弾幕群 update 弾 こんな言語はありませんが、全員判ってくれますね これが無駄なんです あの頃のアセンブラ界隈では、ループ処理すら無駄。無駄無駄無駄 CPUクロックが足り無くて仕方がありません そこで僕はこんな事を : 前提 弾 update 弾 update 弾 update 弾 update ↓ 以下管理RAMが許すまで同じ処理を書いておく : フレームの頭 このフレームでは「弾」が100個ある。じゃあ、100個目に「rts(ループを抜ける)」命令を上書きする : この、手作りの料理みたいなRAMの上で実際にCPUを走らせる : rtsに書き換えた部分を「弾 update」へ書き戻す :毎フレームこれを行う 馬鹿馬鹿しいほどのストイックさです これにより、ループにまつわる「変数iはn以上か?そうでなければループ」という処理すらを省いています 実効値で2倍以上の効率化です いつの時代も、コーディングにおける最適化は芸術だと思います なにより、楽しい

I'm coming to the conclusion that Blazing Star is the best horizontal Shmup ever made. Can you name a better one?

👾 プリレンダSTGの議論をするなら、NEOGEOにおいては『高速ストライカー』の存在を無視するのは難しい…プリレンダSTG全般で論議するなら『閃激』を迂闊に視野から外すこともあってはならないと考える、こういうの誰かが大真面目に「教科書」を書くべきだと思われる…

Thank you for the kind words and for everything you did, it means the world to me and the Kraut Buster team😊. I remember that I nearly had tears in the eyes when I first saw Metal Slug it was like a dream came true. My buddies only had eyes for the vs fighting games. - Timm

@ArmenMARD80 Thank you very much! I’m truly honored to hear that Metal Slug has influenced your work. And it’s amazing that you directed the opening for the Neo Geo game Kraut Buster. I checked it out. It looks really cool, and I can truly feel how much effort went into it ☺️

The Fast Striker EX Nintendo Switch Gamecards arrived now we wait for the factory date. We aim at mid June for shipping. The original game was a NEOGEO / NEO GEO AES game, the first ever NEOGEO game with 1560 MEGS!

The NEOGEO AES+ makes me nostalgic for developing again on NEOGEO🥰. I have font memories reverse engineering the hardware and software side back in 1999-2009. -T

We are having a storage box clearing sales. Starting with very few Kraut Buster AES carts. The high price is due to us not knowing when we can produce more Limit: 1 language version per household. In the next few days we will add some Switch and PS4 games. ngdevdirect.com/collections/ne…
