Triggerheart Exelica hits XBLA on February 27
According to the product (translated) and information (translated) pages on the website of developer WARASHI Inc., Triggerheart Excelica will hit Xbox Live Arcade on February 27. For those of you keeping track at home, that means you can re-experience this classic top-down shooter on Wednesday.
Like recent re-releases, the game will set you back 800 MS Points and promises both the classic and a reconstructed version - which are words for looking hella-good in HD mode. Triggerheart Excelica is another in a long line-up of solid releases for the XBLA platform and if it actually does hit this week, because sometimes developers speak a little too soon on XBLA release dates, gamers are in for a pleasant surprise. Oh and you can release Ikaruga anytime guys. Seriously.
[Thanks, sacra]

Forget this, i think we need some Gunstar Heroes on XBLA along with some sick Sunset Riders.

That'd be awesome! Add online co-op, and I'd be spamming Cormano's shotgun with you. And yes, we need Ikaruga. I'm having shmup withdrawal.

Those girls look like they have amputated limbs. They look like that wooden limbed guy from family guy.

I'm a little disturbed to see panties on what can only be described as a prepubscent anime girl. Oh Japan.

How about Radiant Silvergun?

She's an SD (Super Deformed) character. It's a cute character for "comical" effect, not to be taken seriously.
Anywho, T.E should be quite fun. Sounds like one of the most blatantly "japanesy" games to be announced for the service, unapologetically serving up "moe" style characters with huge gun in hardcore shooting action:)
It was released on Dreamcast, and got pretty decent reviews. Bring on the Bullet-Hell shooters!
