Last Hope is a fan-made game for the Neo Geo home cart system, created by NG:DEV.TEAM in Germany, which will feature a soundtrack by Rafael Dyll. Here's the official site for the game - but before you get too excited, at present they're only planning to make 30-40 of these, and they'll sell for $550 USD. The general consensus is that they've not done enough research into chip prices, and could very feasibly lower this price by quite a bit. But the developers also say they've tried contacting the usual release channels to no avail. There will be a 'cheaper option' in the future, but at the moment the game is to be AES home cart only. More info as it comes!
Update: There's now a video available in the download section.
Update 2: updated price.
