I guess pachinko machines weren't profitable enough to keep Konami from crawling back to video games. With a nostalgia grab, developed by 3rd party studio.
I haven't looked at proper reviews, but people seem to be liking it.
Oh yeah, the game looks like great fun. Congrats to way forward. Just Konami is a crap company and I have to crap on them when they do their bullshit. Like say Konami's future us not in video games, but instead in pachinko machines, then come back to producing games a few years later.
I played the demo. It's alright if you're looking for nostalgia with updated graphics. I don't know if the demo is part of the actual game or a separate game of its own, but it's basically snippets of slightly modified classic levels from the early games tacked end-to-end.
The gameplay isn't innovative or anything. I think for the right (low) price, it might be worth it, but it's unlikely to have any longevity in the gaming space. A year from now, nobody's going to think back especially fondly on it.
