Convert of NES Classic Thexder Coming to PS3 and PSP?

It’s not every day word comes that a 1980s NES title is to grace the PS3, so now that we’ve learned one might we’d like to make a small song and dance about it.

The ESRB website it seems is pre-empting a re-release of Game Arts classic Thexder NEO, which may also reach the PSP. In this old school 8-bit side-scroller, players controlled a robot likened to a Transformer, tasked with battling persistent waves of enemies as they navigated a series of maze-like levels. It was popular enough to prompt a sequel in 1989, but disappeared thereafter.

ESRB states that Square Enix Inc. will be its publisher, ‘Fantasy Violence’ will be its genre, and ‘Everyone’ will be its target audience. There’s even a game summary, for the rare few who might find our above synopsis unsatisfactory.

Admittedly, there isn’t much to go on at present. Our guess is that this title will be available via the PlayStation Store, and will undoubtedly undergo a much needed HD revamp. Until we unearth more credible details, however, it would be wise to treat the above as rumour until proven fact.
