Development
Point Blank was originally created for the arcades in 1994 but a console version was later for the PlayStation in 1997, this version included an arrange mode which added an alternate version of Arcade mode, as well as adding many gameplay modes alongside an RPG mode titled Quest. This game was re-created in 1999 as Point Blank 2, adding more mini-stages and replacing Very Hard with Insane. This game was once again re-created in 2001 as Point Blank 3, only released for the arcades in Japan and for the PlayStation worldwide.
At the 2006 Game Developers Conference in San Jose, CA a Nintendo DS port of the game was announced. The console's stylus and touch screen is used in place of the light gun. The finished game was released in North America on June 13, 2006, two days after the North American release of the Nintendo DS Lite.
