Since these games are best with another player, definite PSN for me :D Never played these games, but I love beat em ups so I am totally gonna pick this up. I think the trailer said June 2013? Hopefully it doesn't get delayed.

This will actually be better than the Saturn version, which didn't have 4 player co op like the arcade version. There was a super powerful attack that required all four players in the original, arcade version

Finally, I get to enjoy this. I never saw it as a kid in arcades and playing it on MAME didnt really grip me. Now I get to see what the big deal is, beat 'em up gameplay never gets old.

Hmm. Steam or Wiiu...Steam is a no brainer, but I might spring and buy both. The games are just solid titles and this version is just gorgeous. If you watch the video closely it looks like in game achievements give you experience - one said use 50 rings.

I'm picking it up later today on XBLA (mostly because I have a bunch of MS points to burn). Should be fun!

Yeah, I have thought about doing this for the PS3 eventually. It's gonna run like $40-$50 shipped for the regular edition, though, and the download is going to basically cost me $5 because of a deal i got on MS Points recently. If that JPN CE can ever be grabbed for a reasonable price, I may get it...

Same.

I am most likely going to buy the Wiiu version now, depending on controls. I have three arcade sticks for it, but if I cannot remap buttons it will be a PC purchase.
