Shitchyea, son!
(This is a direct port of a message board post, so apologies for the lack of context and just jumping into things.)
Cybernator's been one of my favorites either since it came out or a year or two after (whenever my bro and I got it for Christmas; think it mighta been the same time Earthworm Jim came out), and playing Assault Suits Valken translated is even sweeter. Shame they monkeyed with the US version as much as they did. I'm also pretty sure Cybernator has no mention of either Masaya or NCS Corp. on the title screen or end credits. (Just checked: NCS is on the title screen.) Always thought as a kid that it was a Konami game. Dammit to hell.
And every time someone talks to me about Metal Warriors, I say "SHUT THE FUCK UP AND PLAY CYBERNATOR ALREADY YOU ASS!"
Now if only I knew how to set up Saturn emulation properly so I could play Assault Suit Leynos 2. Always been so bummered out I could never play that.
The first Assault Suit Leynos a.k.a. Target Earth is such a bitch, by the way. Picked up a copy some years ago and could never get past the first stage.
AND SPEAKIN'A THOSE GAMES, there's a PC-98 Assault Suit-type game I've wanted to play for years called Night Slave. It looks super badass
and has the added bonus of having lesbian hentai cutscenes.
Cybernator didn't show me THIS as a youngster!
Gotta set up a PC-98 emulator someday also. Can't pass this game up. I can't! It looks like a less badass version of Cybernator but still fun all the same.
And yeah, then there's other rockin' shit in the same vein like Front Mission: Gun Hazard. I didn't get far with the translated version, but I was having fun. Gotta get back to it.
OOOOHHH YEEEAAAHHH AND CYBERNATOR THE KING SUPREME OF 'EM ALL!!
YEEEAAHHH SMASHIN' SHIT IN A GIANT ROBOT SUIT TO KICK-ASS SYNTH MUSIC!
This and Macross Plus are what defined "cool" when I was 9.

Happy news
Takashi Miike's Dead or Alive: Final, the third in the series, is getting a DVD release by Discotek Media (Eastern Star) featuring an ALL-NEW TRANSFER. They've already released the first two movies, and am told they're the same transfers that Kino released, but Kino had some trouble with the third: the best master they could find was non-anamorphic and had burned-in Japanese subtitles (since the movie frequently switches between Japanese, Cantonese, and English dialog).
Someone at Discotek has informed me that their transfer is brand new, anamorphic, and does not have burned-in subtitles.
WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT!!!
The movie is the weakest in the "trilogy," but it's still a blast, and I'm more than excited that it's getting a new transfer for DVD—in fact, my dick is turning into a tree.
And because it's such a spectacle, here's the opening to the first movie. Go see it if you haven't; and if you have, go see it again.

What the fu—
How is it that new Genki Rockets material has been coming out since October OF TWO THOUSAND TEN, a new album dropped this past September, and I knew nothing about any of it? Now it appears too late to obtain the limited edition with bonus DVD.

SHOCK DNA!!!
So there's this crazy noise rock Japanese flick called Electric Dragon 80000V; I've mentioned it in a post before. The US DVD came with a soundtrack CD that is strangely missing the end credits song to the film, which is practically the film's theme song: "Shock DNA" by MACH1.67, a band headed by Electric Dragon star Tadanobu Asano (most well known in the States as Kakihara from Ichi the Killer—you know, the dude who's featured prominently on posters and DVD art for the film) and director Sogo Ishii. It's a kick-ass song, high-energy and brilliant, yet so sadly missing from this soundtrack despite being in the film and other songs by MACH1.67 done for the film being on the CD. It probably has something to do with rights issues, since "Shock DNA" was released earlier as part of the "Star Burn" single.
Well, after some seeking, I found a gent who posted the single as 192kbps MP3s. My life has been enriched. Go download that shit! (Someday when I have the money I intend to buy the CD single and also MACH1.67's debut album.)
I should mention that this song and credits sequence heavily remind me of Dinosaur Jr.'s "Little Fury Things"—a noise rock classic—and I wouldn't be surprised if it served as some kind of inspiration.
