GMR: Since you guys seem to like the GameCube, and since Shigeru Miyamoto said that the GameCube was designed with N64 ports in mind, is there a chance you'll ever port Sin and Punishment to the GameCube? Yasushi Suzuki's art style looks great in 3D.

Treasure: It seems that a lot of people really enjoyed Sin and Punishment for the N64, and we are very happy about that. As far as GameCube is concerned, it's true we like the machine. We wanted Ikaruga to be played by as many game fans as possible, from young kids to adult gamers, and GameCube was the perfect platform to achieve such a goal. What's more, the hardware allowed us to achieve a version even better than the arcade original. However, I can't say if we plan to put Sin and Punishment on the GameCube or not.

That's a pretty big "if" there. I'd be all over it if it was released on the Gamecube!

And for those that don't know, Sin and Punishment is a rail shooter developed by Treasure for the N64. But it never came to the US.

I LOVE Sin & Punishment. If they released it on GameCube I'd buy a GameCube in a second.

So Sin & Punishment is that good. Can you still import it? Is any of it in English (or is that even important? Got any links to it or a place I can buy. Been collecting

I also heard about a mech 64 game called Robo something that might come onto the Gamecube. Same questions as above.

Is S & P much like Panzer Dragoon?

I think the menus are in English, but I can't remember if the game was. But, like all Treasure games, dialogue and text aren't very important.
