That's what Majesco and Budcat thought, anyway. They were already making a game based on a Kenta Cho freeware shooter, with no legal hoops to jump through. There's basically no reason for them not to throw a bunch more Cho games on there! It works out well for them, because it's bonus content, and it works out nicely for us, because we'll be able to play more great abstract shooters on our television, using our Wiimote!
Siliconera played Blast Works at E3, and realized very quickly that they were just playing the original TUMIKI Fighters. The Budcat rep explained that it was an early build and that Blast Works would indeed be a new game. He also revealed that not only will TUMIKI Fighters be on the disc in its original form, but rRootage and possibly Gunroar and Torus Trooper will be bonus content as well.
This means that you can go preview some Blast Works bonus content right now! It's like being at E3. Just like it. We recommend rRootage especially-- it's a parade of randomly-generated bosses.
Why not throw a bunch of freeware games in with Blast Works?

So, wait. They're paying the Tumiki guy, right?

Read the links... guess not. He turned them down and said he didn't care about their port and they could go ahead and do it.
They'd have paid him. And he didn't go for it. Wow. He must be rich.

Gunroar, IMO, is better than Tumiki Fighters, so I"d be disappointed if they didn't include it. I can't imagine why they wouldn't include Mu-Cade, though, as that is one of Kenta Cho's better games.
