Full title: Shooting Love. 2007: Exzeal & Shmups Skill Test

Is coming, confirmed by Sega AM website:

The platform is unknown, but if it's Naomi GD-ROM, let's prepare for another "NO, REALLY, THIS IS THE LAST DREAMCAST GAME EVER" title.

Yeah, I wrote about this on IC:

Toshiaki Fujino is back with two new shooters, both of which will be shown for the first time at the upcoming AOU show. Exzeal, the sequel to Trizeal, is of course the one we are most interested in, but the mobile game titled Shooting: Technical Skills Test sounds cool too. Screenshots indicate it might be just a port of "Shooting Ginokentei", the omake game included with Trizeal's PS2 port, but what's nice about it either way is that it will feature national ranking tables, and, well, the title sounds like something you'd expect to see on the DS.

As for Exzeal, the hardware hasn't been announced yet, but it will almost certainly run on the Naomi, so I guess we can expect a DC port at some point in the future. Rumor has it that when that happens Fujino will slice off his little finger live on his website, to promote its sales. Thanks to twe and others from Shmups for some of this info.

It's interesting news, though I don't expect much from this game, to be honest. In the best case scenario it will be mediocre... and possibly quite ugly.

But, hey, you never know!

if it's Naomi GD-ROM, let's prepare for another "NO, REALLY, THIS IS THE LAST DREAMCAST GAME EVER" title.

I think most people are over this by now. Except perhaps for the morons who write Kotaku and other such crappy blogs.

Looks a bit dull and uninspired.
