Apparently it's just an enhanced remake, the graphics are still sprite-based and all. A few really shitty Jump scans are circulating on the web now for it.

Disappointing, since a full remake would make a lot of fans happy, but a quasi-port is cheaper and will, most likely, sell just as many copies. Money >>>> effort. Le sigh :\

By the by, are you up for Comiket proxy buying next month?
