Kiss goodbye to all other games, as Windjammers will power (disc) its way to the PlayStation 4 and Vita from 29th August. The legendary game of Frisbee was announced for Sony’s systems all the way back at PlayStation Experience last year, and after a closed beta last month, is finally ready to charge up and lob a piece of plastic in your general direction.
For those of you who don’t know, the original Windjammers debuted all the way back in 1994 on the Neo Geo, but has enjoyed something of a renaissance in recent years – partly due to websites like Giant Bomb who won’t stop bloody playing it. Now in a post-Rocket League climate, DotEmu has embarked upon a re-working effort, taking the original and adding online multiplayer and much more.
In fact, Windjammers is so in vogue that a line of merchandise will also launch in August, including some pretty rad tees, as well as hats, stickers, and – you guessed it – themed Frisbees. We absolutely cannot wait to get our hands on this one, but if you’re still not sold, check out the trailer embedded above and just try to resist its 90s charms.

OMG!
YES!
Never tried the original so I am not sold. Still willing to give it a chance if the price is right.
Perfect game for the Vita.
I'm excited! I used to watch this in the arcade as a kid and was mesmerized. Never had money to actually play it though. Haha

When you have 0 cents, 25 cents is a fortune. And my parents didn't give me money.
That subhead tho
Never heard of this game back in the day, now I hear about it a lot as of late. Another Neo Geo game I'll add to the collection on PS4.
I am exceptionally lucky to own this for the NEO GEO cd
Let's see if DotEmu can rival Hamster's ACA series.
