Forget what you remember of Super Thunder Blade on Genesis and Wii VC

This will be the 1987 arcade game (in 3D) with all the great scaling - top-down levels and into-the-screen levels.

Thunder Blade Is Getting The 3D Ages Remake Treatment
By Spencer . August 7, 2014 . 11:12pm

Sega’s helicopter shooter, Thunder Blade, is coming to Nintendo 3DS on August 20. It’s joining the list of 3D remastered games like 3D Space Harrier and 3D Outrun.

3D Thunder Blade has stereoscopic 3D graphics and optional motion controls that simulate the feeling of sitting in an arcade cabinet. Sega also made a Special Mode which has a new final stage and the true boss at the end.

As of now, 3D Thunder Blade and the current wave of Sega 3D Classics have not been announced for regions other than Japan.

I wish they'd remaster Phantasy Star II. That game would look awesome in stereoscopic 3D.

I played Thunderblade and Afterburner 2 more than Outrun - I think I only ever saw Outrun once or twice in an Arcade.

I played After Burner II, Thunder Blade, Super Monaco GP and Galaxy Force II in arcades more than I did Out Run.
I've seen Out Run in arcades probably 3 or 4 times but played it mostly on Saturn. The original arcade Out Run was actually just 30 fps unlike Sega's other super-scalar games which were 60fps. However on Saturn (Sega Ages) you could play at original 30fps or use a code for "smooth mode" which was 60fps.

I could be wrong, but I think the Japanese 3DS eShop Out Run can be played at 60fps. Not sure if that's default or what, since obviously I can't play it yet.
Thanks Sega

60 fps is default on 3D Outrun. After you clear all 5 end stages you unlock "Arcade Outrun", which is only 30 fps.

Good to know ^ thanks!
