Thanks, I need to get around to playing this game. Been spending too much of my time with random Arcade Archives stuff.

Let's get started!

Damn I figured something on ps4/switch would be more accessible, sorry guys! If y’all pick a side game I’m happy to add a leaderboard (and throw some credits at it)

Cheers kuze, Aleste 3 looks like a rad game.

I've got Gremlin coming to my house in a couple hours (Canada is a small place apparently) so I'll let him rifle through my PCB stack for a side pot game.

I have a PS4 and switch, same arcade sticks available, any reason to buy it on one system over the other?

Coincidentally, I just took advantage of the weak Yen to order the two Toaplan games in the Shottriggers series, so I'm glad this thread came along to get me to dust off Aleste as well.

Damn if this was the arcade title Senjin Aleste I'd be all in.

And how did it go? Did you each respect each other in the morning? Push each other’s buttons and fiddle with the sticks too?

yeah, so the game isn't even on the eShop. Let me look for a rom. Maybe I can play it on my GBA everdrive or something.

It’s definitely on the eShop, you have to create a JP region account on your console then buy a points card from Play Asia to buy it with. Once it’s downloaded you can use your regular account to play it.

Another option is to just buy the physical version from Amazon.co.jp, no hoops required and they will ship direct to your US address and let you pay with US credit card.

I was searching for it on the Nintendo jp website.


I didn’t see it on there.

I've moved my office, where all my PS4 stuff was, and now I can't find where I put this game looool. If I can locate it before the end of the month, I do plan on playing.
