Gotta say I am really looking forward to this, being as I didn't get into Senran Kagura until Estival Versus, i'm looking forward to playing the Remake to the first game and get more of the SK Story, be interesting to see the gameplay to it closer to release and see what Special editions of Burst Re:Newal become available [if any] as well! Whats everybody else's thoughts on Burst Re:Newal?

Hopefully, it'll be clear in the future, where they'll either fix Yumi's age due to it being an error, or her mission in the DLC does take place after Burst, and not before.
Either way, I hope this game's good as the rest.

It looks like it's literally just Estival Versus with Burst's story. Haruka has her shitty EV bot and I hated how sluggish EV's system was. Here's to hoping it's more than that.

I've always enjoyed EV's system. EV was only sluggish at the beginning. Gameplay picks up as you level up the characters and progress through. It'll most likely be the same with this game.

Looks fun to me and good hold game waiting for SK7. Thinking about this Remake and SK7, earlier today I got the thought of games getting Remakes left, right and centre and Burst being one of them and I thought that [hopefully] SK is lucky enough like the current remakes with the Yakuza series, with recently announced Yakuza 2 Kiwami, if SK gets even bigger and popular does anyone think its possible after Burst Re:Newal that SK2: Deep Crimson gets a Remake too? Also concerning Burst Re:Newal I think its very cool that Yumi will get a Story DLC "Extra", but I think its cool if they look to add in Story episodes from other Characters as well... might not be a great idea, but I like the idea

Resident Evil Remake on Gamecube was amazing and I'm on board to Remake RE2 and RE3 with modern tech. If SK goes a similar route I have no issue with it as long as new SK entries keep coming. More SK is a good thing to me.

Burst Re:Newal is hopefully just the beginning! and an exciting one at that... for me anyway as it'll be the first time experiencing Burst.

If Burst Re:Newal is successful enough, I'm sure we'll see remakes of other SK games in the future. By the looks of it, this remake may very well be a successful venture. And, I'm pretty sure that Re:Newal will be a first experience for anyone who hasn't played the original Burst.

I've been late to joining the Senran Kagura party, never had the chance to play the originals since I didn't own a 3DS, and I got into the series starting at Estival Versus but wasn't the original two games side scrollers? It'd be kind of neat if there was an option to go between the Estival style and the classic side scrolling view. Sort of how Resident Evil did it with the Lost in Nightmares DLC easter egg where if you performed a certain action at the start of the game you can return to the classic movement and camera angles from the original games rather than playing the over the shoulder view.

I'm really ambiguous to this remake. On the one hand, as pointed out above, it looks like it'll just be Burst's story in an EV jacket. And honestly, I find EV the weakest game in the whole series, gameplay and storywise. So there's always the original game to enjoy for me, and I think it's a nice way to introduce the new players that got in at EV (PLEASE do yourself a favour and at least play SV, on Steam if you don't own a Vita) to the better story bits of SK. I'm also curious about how Yumi will factor in the whole game, and whether they'll squeeze her in the main story, effectively changing what is canon (or making her contributions zero so that Burst's story can play out as normal, but then we have to imagine they also met Yumi in the middle), or if it'll play afterwards and it'll just be some sort of intermediary between Burst and SV (but then how would we explain them not knowing Yumi at the start of EV?). Needless to say, I'm curious about the execution. As for further remakes... Again, I think it'll make a nice addition for those unfamiliar with the storylines. But since Deep Crimson is a 3D action game already, I HOPE they will only copy/paste the EV engine, and NOT the gameplay elements. You cannot take away our beautiful tag ninpos! Anyway, that's just me. Spitfire, the first one (Burst) was a 2.5D game, so it would lend itself to a view-switch, but I think playing it as a 3D game, leaving the same corridor structure would be really boring... I think Valkyrie Drive showed that a bit of exploration can add a lot to these games. The second one (well, in Japan the third, but the two first Japanese games were bundled in our first: Burst), Deep Crimson, was a 3D action game much like SV in EV (in the sense of it being a 3D action game) but the gameplay was radically different, keeping you in the air a lot with the ninja chain, having a tag system and tag ninpos. Oh, how I love tag ninpos.

I'm guessing the Yumi we'll see in the remake will be the Yumi of the 3DS games timeline rather than the one we have in the Versus timeline, kind of like how Kagura and Naraku met the Asuka of the Versus timeline and she had no idea who they were.
Or perhaps there will be a weird thing involving the Versus timeline Yumi crossing dimensions to implement her into the original story somehow. They might do it the way Pokémon does it, where the remake would be the definitive canonical story of a past game. Like how you have Ruby/Sapphire but the definitive story was Emerald.
3DS timeline: Burst and Deep Crimson
Versus timeline: SV, BA, EV, PBS and SK7
Remake(canon) timeline: Re:Newal
The remake might take place in the Versus timeline so that the first game occurs in the current main series story. Then again that would contradict Asuka not knowing who Kagura was in PBS. I'm just spit balling at this point, always fun to speculate.

So someone said they are reusing the characters literal voicing from burst based on the voice clips on 4chan. I opened up burst and heard one of Haruka's clips in game. They really are reusing it along with the character art. I'm not getting this cause I dont see what the point would be if nothing but the Yumi thing are new. Yumi Hara is the only one with a voice message on the website which makes me believe that the other voice actors are not voicing for this game. Also no preorder bonus I want. The ones on these are the most meh. I wonder if they'll even have new cg if they are reusing the character's sprite art? I can just watch the Yumi story on youtube.

For all we know, that's not entirely true. There could be more new scenarios included in the remake that we don't know about yet, which may lead the voice actors coming back to voice everyone for the new content.

The problem with that idea is that Burst is the start of both timelines, and it is only at the end of it that the Versus timeline splits off. So both Shinovi Versus and Deep Crimson stem from Burst. If Yumi drops in in Burst already, Shinovi Versus's story is going to get into trouble. I'm somewhat expecting her to perhaps just be a storyless DLC character though... Probably will still get the localized version just to go through the awesome story again in great quality.
