This might be a positive thing. City Connection sold Zerodiv to Edia this year. Edia might release better ports. Maybe the console versions will be delisted as well?

Oh damn, that's big news! I'd love to see better ports though, the current ones are super basic.

Edia just put out that Telenet collection so if that moves units who knows what will happen.

I have some of them on Switch but would re-buy if there is a better release.

I just found out about this now. Dragon Blaze has been on my wishlist forever. No sale before delisting though… I suspect it's a legal thing.

Sad, but I'll wait for the comeback.

It will make a comeback. Edia is putting out compilations on consoles and Steam and seeing as how they paid basically nothing (¥1 million = less than 6500 USD) they might want to try and make some easy money.
