I didn't bother to watch the video, but what purpose did it serve to create this if he isn't releasing it?

I really don't understand the point of this. Why wouldn't you just play it in MAME? It's not like he actually REDREW the art, right? It's just upscaled. You could run MAME through a filter, too, so who cares?

Seems like a waste of time, but whatever.

 Hes a guy who works in a commercial industry, and has a family.   He is probably scared of getting into legal troubles.

 You didnt watch the video, obviously.. which makes you look like a fool for your comments.

 He made a custom version of the game, due to his PCB being broken.

 The graphics are not merely scaled.   Hes added and changed things.   The closeups show some really cool added details. Tasteful changes, that fit the rest of the graphics and style.


 I really dig the remake, in that it stays true to the real gameplay and look.   Its not a FPS, or a completely different game.
There are some quips I have about it...  as I think he removed the limitation of bullets on screen at once.   I see some other differences, but Ill refrain from pointing them out until I verify.  I never got too far into the real game.. mostly because of that darn LightCycle stage.  The Cycle stage was far more random than skill based.  I know there are patterns you can memorize.. but I have a pretty bad memory.
