Alpha system announced Shikigami No Shiro III

If we have to believe Magicbox:

Alfa System announced they plan to develop Shikigami no Shiro III for arcade, the 3rd installment of the popular shooting game.

I bet soon after the homeversions will get announced. I still need to pick up my Shikigami no Shiro II copy at a friend. She went recently to Japan and bought it for me.

I guess there isn't much to talk about untill more info comes out.

In japan it hit all 3 systems but it looks like we'll just be getting the PS2 and Xbox versions here, surprisingly from different publishers. XS is bringing us the PS2 version in August, and GS and EB are showing as of like yesterday the Xbox version coming in early July from shoot I forget who like fresh games or something. I've played the DC version and II is pretty good, so deffinetly looking forward to them making a 3rd one, just hope it comes to the US sooner than it took for II to come here, or I for that matter. I plan on picking up which ever version has tate mode.

Told ya!

Hahaha. I hope as long as Xs keeps the Mobile Light Force series going, that they never change that boxart. Just use the exact same box art for every game to ever be released in the series.

XS is actually bringing it over as Castle Shikigami II :O

Ahhh, this is really good news. And I agree with Andy, they worked long and hard making box art that sucks that badly. Keep it going. I've never cared much about something like boxart anyway, but that there is almost poetic in its magnitude of pure suckage.

But looks like that won't be the case anymore. Looks like this is the US Xbox version cover for Shikigami No Shiro II.

Click-Stick reports that Shikigami no Shiro III will be presented at AOU2005.

man I never Did See SnS II in stores anywhere it must have been a really really small release

That reminds me I need to order SnSII. I have also never seen it in anywhere.

So far Watch.Impress got this one...not much to talk about here, but i'll try to update this post as soon as more pics are revealed or if click-stick updates his site...pityy it won't be presented in a playable form.
