Chaos/limited codes

In addition to Japanese Andriod games, this blog has sort of become the only place on the internets you'll find any information pertaining to the Taiwanese, KOF-"inspired" 2D arcade fighter called Chaos Code. And even then, it'll only be mentioned in passing, and likely with a snarky undertone. Much to my chagrin, the game has risen to the top of the gaming scene of note, pretty much by default, for being the ONLY original arcade game to see release in the past 5 years. Yes, after years of AOU appearances and location tests, this damn thing will finally see distribution. The publishing partner will be 2D heroes Arc System Works, and the hardware will be SEGA's Rindwide board. The game is scheduled to ship to amusement centres (*ahem*) centers sometime in August of 2011. Who wants to place bets on the time frame for a XBLA/PSN downloadable version? I say Holiday '11 for $10.
