This game is AWESOME! I picked it up a few days ago, and can't put it down. I think it'd be great if we could do a hack of this, since the chances of it coming to the US seem very low to me. Reason being: it's based on a popular game show in Japan called Game Center CX, in which people are challenged to play really hard retro games and clear certain missions within them.

You can read about the game and see screenshots:

I could do the script to this game no problem, although there is quite a bit of text, so I need someone willing to script dump it and take care of all the technical work. Trust me, this game should have a special place in the heart of any retro gamer.
