This includes taking advantage of the different audio outputs (on the chip level) from the various models of the system: Mega Drive 1, Genesis 1, Mega Drive 2, &amp; Genesis CDX.

Players control \u201cASURA, a humanoid combat weapon,\u201d whom they see from behind, and can fly all over the screen while blasting and\/or punching enemies, and becoming more powerful.<\/p>\n<p>This reminds me of the never releases <em><a href=\"https:\/\/hitsparksgames.com\/strikeblazinger\/\">Strike Blazinger<\/a><\/em> that <a href=\"https:\/\/arcadeheroes.com\/2016\/05\/05\/segabits-interview-chris-tang-strike-harbinger\/\">Chris Tang was working on years ago<\/a>, but seems to have been abandoned. Those who were eagerly awaiting that game should be excited to see Asura coming to arcades, but there\u2019s one other aspect to this release that will stand out \u2013 it\u2019s the first exA game that will use an analog flight stick controller.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"49463\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/arcadeheroes.com\/2025\/06\/15\/exa-arcadia-announces-five-new-titles-at-shooterfes-2025\/exa-flight-stick\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/arcadeheroes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/exa-flight-stick.jpg?fit=800%2C267&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"800,267\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"exa flight stick\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/arcadeheroes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/exa-flight-stick.jpg?fit=300%2C100&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/arcadeheroes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/exa-flight-stick.jpg?fit=800%2C267&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-49463\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/arcadeheroes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/exa-flight-stick.jpg?resize=800%2C267&amp;ssl=1\" alt=\"Analog flight stick for the exA-Arcadia system\" width=\"800\" height=\"267\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/arcadeheroes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/exa-flight-stick.jpg?w=800&amp;ssl=1 800w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/arcadeheroes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/exa-flight-stick.jpg?resize=300%2C100&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/arcadeheroes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/exa-flight-stick.jpg?resize=768%2C256&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Thanks to the modular control panel design that both the ARC-1 and ARC-32 cabinets have, interested buyers can just swap these out, although with this being the only game to support it at the moment, you\u2019d have to keep the cabinet on a single game. That\u2019s not a bad thing though, in that often players are drawn to a dedicated cabinet anyways. I also feel that this and the trackball games will get some extra attention, since they are the types of controllers that have a feel recreated by home gamepads.<\/p>\n<p>It should be noted that <strong>you do not need the flight stick module to play the game<\/strong> \u2013 it works with standard digital joysticks as well. I do think that this would make it more enticing though.<\/p>\n<p>Back to the game, this is not a title looking to recreate Space Harrier\u2019s or an 1980\u2019s look; it\u2019s all 3D, modern, and it looks beautiful. The exA version also offers the unique EXA Mode, and has a special soundtrack arrangement available. It is listed as a single player game; in my view, it\u2019d be a good candidate for doing a 2-player VS linked game. They showed footage of it, but the trailers haven\u2019t been posted to YouTube or X yet, so we\u2019ll use a trailer of the Steam version until then:<\/p>\n<div data-mode=\"normal\" data-oembed=\"1\" data-provider=\"youtube\" id=\"arve-youtube-qxwiaap3ook\" style=\"max-width:600px;\" class=\"arve aligncenter\">\n<div class=\"arve-inner\">\n<div style=\"aspect-ratio:500\/281\" class=\"arve-embed arve-embed--has-aspect-ratio\">\n<p>\t\t\t<iframe allow=\"accelerometer 'none';autoplay 'none';camera 'none';ch-ua 'none';clipboard-read 'none';clipboard-write;display-capture 'none';encrypted-media 'none';gamepad 'none';geolocation 'none';gyroscope 'none';hid 'none';identity-credentials-get 'none';idle-detection 'none';keyboard-map 'none';local-fonts 'none';magnetometer 'none';microphone 'none';midi 'none';payment 'none';picture-in-picture;publickey-credentials-create 'none';publickey-credentials-get 'none';screen-wake-lock 'none';serial 'none';sync-xhr;usb 'none';window-management 'none';xr-spatial-tracking 'none';\" allowfullscreen=\"\" class=\"arve-iframe fitvidsignore\" credentialless=\"\" data-arve=\"arve-youtube-qxwiaap3ook\" data-lenis-prevent=\"\" data-src-no-ap=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/qXWiaaP3Ook?feature=oembed&amp;iv_load_policy=3&amp;modestbranding=1&amp;rel=0&amp;autohide=1&amp;playsinline=0&amp;autoplay=0\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"337.2\" loading=\"lazy\" name=\"\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-presentation allow-popups allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\" scrolling=\"no\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/qXWiaaP3Ook?feature=oembed&amp;iv_load_policy=3&amp;modestbranding=1&amp;rel=0&amp;autohide=1&amp;playsinline=0&amp;autoplay=0\" title=\"\" width=\"600\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center; border: 3px ridge #e600e6;\">Jamjam\u2019n Jelly EXA LENTE<\/h3>\n<p>We\u2019ve played this one a few times, and I\u2019ve been able to see it progress into a really awesome shooter.

I would lean either towards <em>Earthion<\/em> or Jamjam\u2019n Jelly, as I really enjoyed both games from what I\u2019ve played; Jamjam\u2019s color scheme is one that would certainly draw attention to it (I\u2019ve noticed that with anything 2D, vibrant color seems to perform better than drab).<\/p>\n<div class=\"sharedaddy sd-block sd-like jetpack-likes-widget-wrapper jetpack-likes-widget-unloaded\" id=\"like-post-wrapper-15981498-49411-684efe38379e0\" data-src=\"https:\/\/widgets.wp.com\/likes\/?ver=14.7#blog_id=15981498&amp;post_id=49411&amp;origin=arcadeheroes.com&amp;obj_id=15981498-49411-684efe38379e0\" data-name=\"like-post-frame-15981498-49411-684efe38379e0\" data-title=\"Like or Reblog\">\n<h3 class=\"sd-title\">Like this:<\/h3>\n<p><span class=\"button\"><span>Like<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"loading\">Loading\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><h3 class=\"jp-relatedposts-headline\"><em>Related<\/em><\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ShooterFes, an event that is specially focused on the \u201cshoot \u2019em up\u201d genre of games (also known as \u201cshmup\u201d or \u201cSTG;\u201d I\u2019ll use the latter in this article), has wrapped up and as usual, exA-Arcadia was there to offer up some gaming goodness and make some announcements.
