3D OutRun is more than just a re-release with stereoscopic 3D. SEGA and M2 are including a virtual Deluxe Version, featuring a simulated arcade cabinet much like 3D Space Harrier.
There’s also a new version of the game (new car, five kinds of goals, four other customization parts) plus the new songs “Cruising Line” from Black Rock Shooter: The Game composer Manabu Namiki and “Camino ami Amor” from Jane-Evelyn Nisperos.

Keiji Inafune met with Inti Creates CEO Takuya Aizu earlier today to discuss a few items pertaining to Azure Striker Gunvolt.
According to the game’s official Twitter account, Gunvolt will be modified in the US version once again so that the character’s braided hair will be kept in tact. This was originally removed from the Japanese version – as shown above.
Inafune-san and Aizu-san also discussed the character design of Gunvolt for US version. #gunvolt

After initially pulling the plug on the 3DS version, Renegade Kid now hopes to bring its survival horror title to Nintendo’s portable once again. If the game’s Kickstarter meets its minimum funded goal of $580,000, backers will be able to choose the 3DS version as their platform of choice for download codes.
Cult County does have a ways to go before it reaches its Kickstarter target. The campaign has just 16 days to raise well over $500,000.
