Wow, Nanostray! That takes me back.

Shin'en always amused me... they're the German development team that desperately wants to be Japanese. Sometimes their games really do feel the part, but there's always something about them that feels slightly off. Hopefully they'll get it right in their upcoming 3DS release.

@MNeko Seriously there was a nanostray 2, how the hell did I miss that?

To the Cloud!
and by cloud I mean gamestop/ebay/local flea markets(when its warmer) Maybe combing some Kmarts or the likes.

I loved the hell out of Nanostray and had I not been in a cave on mars with both fingers in my ears, humming this is Halloween. I would have picked it up on launch.

@Scuffles
Don't worry over it!
Yeah I've had a scan around. It seems all that we have left in the UK are pirated copies and super expensive sealed ones. Booo-urns.

This is good to hear, Nanostray 1 spent a lot of time in my DS in the early years. Never got round to getting the sequel and now I bet it's like gold dust.

I've pre-ordered my 3DS with pilotwings, monkey ball, and dead or alive. Man, the wait gets worse and worse every day. Anybody got a time machine i can borrow?

I think nanostray 2 had an enemy ship that you flew in a Japanese game called Raystorm

That screenshot is just radiating of the third dimension.

Nanostray 3D would be awesome! The original was a day 1 purchase for me and happened to be the first traditional shooter I ever beat and the first DS game I played multiplayer with somebody.

That's some mighty nice phong shading there. Looks kinda like a parade balloon.

Ah man! I love BurgerTime. I have the theme song set as my wake-up alarm, because it is awesome yet annoyingly repetitive.

Regal flair FTW... On a side note, that ship reminds me of R-Type... O_o xD

I wouldn't mind buying another nanostray game.

It won't be another Nanostray game, but it will be in the same vein, I bet. Nanostray was a near-launch title for the DS, but not many people know that the same developers made Iridion 3D and its sequel on the GBA. Seems like they do 2 shooters each for Nintendo handhelds over their lifespans. I'd expect a spiritual successor to Nanostray, in the way Nanostray was a spiritual successor to Iridion.

Old news. This has been known about this since last year.
