On the PS2 version, if would lag if there were too many bullets on the screen at the same time, but that restriction has been removed this time around.
Anyone who has played the PS2 or Archives version should give it a shot.



I'd definitely get this. Insta buy, day one !!!

Jeez, this series is seriously a dream come true. I hope they get the green light to do even more titles... I'd love to see Super Monaco GP. And Power Drift. And a proper home version of Rad Mobile would be great, too.

Yeah, if you read it the interview in http://blogs.sega.com/2015/04/14/sega-3d-classics-3d-fantasy-zone-ii-part-2/
they (M2) clearly stated it that this one and 3D Thunder Blade are the last ones.
Okunari's talking about 3D Thunderblade as the true finale in this quote :

Quote
Yosuke Okunari : "Yes, it’s been a long time since we started, but the 3D Remaster Project comes to a close with this title (3D Fantasy Zone II)…is what I should say, but actually there is one more title that we’ve been holding back. This one is really the last one. Even at a concert after the encore is finished, if the audience is really hyped up then sometimes you can get the performers to squeak out one last song. And this is that song. It’s the true finale."

But may be the sales worlwide were so good that SEGA asked to make more of them.

They do mention Power Drift in the 3D Thunder Blade Interview.

Yosuke Okunari : (In Japan), we’ve set it to a 1000 JPY* price point for 3D Thunder Blade, so while it’s a little more expensive, but we’ve put that much more work into it as well.

Naoki Horii: If we sell a crap ton of copies, then I’ll go and make Power Drift by myself. (all laugh)
