I got this email about a week ago:
NGDEV Team
 
Dear customers,

NEO XYX for Dreamcast will be released on 17th February.

The Collector Edition/CE will ship a few days later due to longer production time.

The hype has begun! B-)

Your order has been updated to the following status.

New status: Processing/Preparing
The general reception of the port seems to be good. The only issues that I've heard people mention is:

1. There is a slight pause in the music right before the boss battles
2. The buttons aren't labelled correctly in the options menu when you're trying to remap the buttons. Apparently C = R, Z = L.

I can personally look past these two issues. #2 is really good to know for people like me who will be using the official DC stick B-) Has anyone got their copy yet?

Finally got the CE in the mail! :D It came with two copies of the game though - the regular edition and the limited edition. Not sure if there's any difference between the contents on the discs between the two versions. I'm pretty stoked in any case!

Also, it says "Join the TATE army now!" on the postcard with the chick on it, lol

It appears that people have experienced an issue where the game will freeze at some point during a playthrough if you use custom button mappings. I mapped the buttons to X, Y and Z and tried to credit feed through the game 5 times and the screen froze on 4 out of those 5 attempts :/ I am using the official DC Arcade Stick. Will try again later with the default button mappings but this left a sour taste in my mouth...

I still haven't got mine :(

does it play without freezing if you don't remap the buttons?

I tried with the default button mappings and the game still froze, however, I stopped pressing buttons in between the stages and I haven't had any issues with the game so far!

Also, this game is simply amazing! I've been having an absolute blast with it since I figured out how to avoid the "freeze bug".

Hope you get yours soon, majin!

I hope to get it soon too! My order shipped out on 03/05/2014 and could take up to 14 days to get here.

I'm bummed out about all the negative feedback I'm seeing on the game freezing. I saw your posts on shumps.system11.org as well as everyone else that has been having the game lock up on them!

I really wanted to get into this one as it reminds me of a Toaplan Mega Drive game.

I think that it's a combination of the settings that you use and pressing buttons in between stages that causes the game to freeze. I haven't had any issues with the game during the past two days. I'm using the official DC Arcade Stick and the following in-game settings:

Controls
Default (Stick)

Video
Mode: Vertical.S
Filter: OFF

EDIT: I figured that I'd post this on the shmups forum as well for anyone who's interested. I've been enjoying the game since it stopped freezing! I think that you'll like it as well, majin. The bullet patterns during the bosses are a little bit repetitive and the enemy placements and overall stage designs are good but not amazing but it's still a really fun game and the music is great.

That's awesome, majin! The issues that people have been experiencing seems to be mainly when you play on Vertical.S mode. I've been pretty busy lately so I haven't had time to verify it but try normal Vertical and use the zoom functionality on your TV (if it's a flat-screen TV) if it keeps freezing even if you don't press buttons in-between stages.
