Great news regarding the upcoming Xbox 360 port of Cave's gothic lolita arcade shooter Deathsmiles: It's getting a resolution upgrade.
The news comes out of the developer's blog, where a recent post shows the original Ikkakuju (one-horned monster) enemy from the arcade version, and then the high-res 360 version.
Deathsmiles is by no means one of the better looking shooters out there, featuring decidedly low-res graphics on a standard display at arcades, and I was expecting the same at home. A graphical upgrade is icing on the cake.
The blog post also mentions that pre-ordering details will be revealed later this month. The game is expected to come out Spring 2009 in Japan.
