  • This is my favorite out of the Gradius series. I still haven't played 4 or 5 yet though, so you never know :p. Tried to fix the sound multiple times, it refused to play through correctly so sorry about the sound. No death on hard run, enjoy. Going to do an arcade no death run soon, can't believe I forgot about arcade mode :/
    To people who would like to know how to spread the options, this is how: When having either the rotating options (R-Options) or F-Options (The ones I use in this video) make sure to get all 4 of your options. When you have all of your options collect enough power-ups to highlight the empty option box. Once that box is highlighted press and hold A to spread your options.

    Whoever composed the music for this game, I give them mad respect. This is one of the best game scores I have ever heard.

    I've been playing this game since it was new & in all these years I had no idea you can move the Options guns like that

    I remember seeing pictures of that first boss in Nintendo Power magazine before the SNES was released, and it just blew my 11-year-old mind. Super Mario World, FZero, Gradius III, and Actraiser were the games I remember most from that issue. The graphics for the time were incredible.

    I LOVE Gradius 3. I could play it until the day I die - this is a game that will never be old to me.

  • @Toad22484
    @Toad22484  17 років тому

    once you have all your options, get enough power ups to hilight the empty "option" box and press and hold A and the options will spread. It works with either the Rotating options or the options I used.

    Oh man I remember playing this game. I was able to beat it on the easy mode a few times, and not without some good number of deaths. Kudos to you Toad for this run.

    I remember running through this game and then having all the upgrades for my ship never thinking I could die, then all of sudden you get hit by a stray bullet and lose everything. This game was brutal.

    THIS GAME IS SO ICONIC IN MY MIND THAT I WOULD GET IT TATTOOED. so much nastolgia watching this. I was 5 and I would make it to the metal stage where you had to go through all those up/down pathways and die. im amazed that I even made it that far at my age.

  • @Toad22484
    @Toad22484  17 років тому

    Yeah, spreading the options helps quite a bit in some areas. Rotating options with E lasers are always fun, especially with the spreading. Thanks for watching.

    the boss at the end is a real let down, when i first beat it i was so disappointed.
    but i never beat it without dieing.

    I hated the Easter Island statues, The farthest I've ever gotten was the fast stage (never saw the boss for that stage).
    So glad to see the end, finally!

    No prob. These games are really tough and it takes patience to play them again and again to learn the patterns and such. Thanks for watching.

  • @ClefairyRox
    @ClefairyRox 13 років тому

    I still haven't beaten this game. Even on Easy, it kicks my ass during the later levels. Mainly the one that goes really really fast. (starts at 21:08). Could never beat the boss there cuz I kept dying in the level. And you beat the whole thing on hard without dying ONCE. I've got major respect for you.
    Gradius III also has some of the best music of the SNES era (in my opinion) and awesome boss fights.

    i love this game. i used to play it all the time, many moons ago. good job man, that was just amazing.. some of those spots you were in towards the end were like zero error spots. i think its funny how the last boss is the easiest, hes like a giant infant who cant do anything but shoot purple balls

    Great job dude. And how did you get your options to split?? That might help me. :-D

  • @brtshstel
    @brtshstel 17 років тому

    23:25 it would have been cool to have an actual level based on the boss, like a crystal mine. and it could have a chime-style song like the boss's theme.
    all in all though, you no-die run is awesome. i will have to dust off my old SNES and play it again

    I don't know, but it reminds me of that Yello song from Ferris Beuller's Day Off
    The interesting thing about the last boss is you don't even have to shoot it. It just dies after 15 seconds or so.

    @randyIII 17 років тому

    I loved this game i always used the rotating options because you could make them extend away from the ship and when you used the e lazer at the same time and held it in to charge it up all you had to do was dodge bullets everything else would die I AM INVINCEABLE

  • @shebakoby
    @shebakoby 16 років тому

    I love this game so much! Getting to the digging through crap stage, we'd always go "SHREDDER!" for some reason--the "dirt" reminded us of TMNT old skool when Shredder's base was at the center of the earth. (and the music is cool too).
    Did you ever find the code to "cheat" full options? (all that you had to do then was get speed).
    Small spread ftw, although I hold a special place in my heart for large spread missile. Too bad the package it came in sucked.

  • @Toad22484
    @Toad22484  17 років тому

    This one was on Super Nintendo and Gradius was on Nintendo. I don't think Gradius II was released in America but I could be wrong.

  • @autumnsprings44
    @autumnsprings44 12 років тому +1

    My 60 year old mother used to play this and flip it!!. She had so many men should couldn't see all of them. The console finally died on her and some years ago she came down with alzheimers. Would be great to find the console and game for her in her last years. Can't seem to find a working one. Help me if you can.

  • @Aenima316
    @Aenima316 15 років тому

    used to play this game all the time as a kid, never knew about spreading the options. also, i always would use the r option and the two rotating shields that looked like stars as well as the missiles that went either down or up depending where you were on the screen. i can see how your setup has its advantages though, especially with being smaller.

  • @Virgil077

    @Quartrez Vic Viper is the name of the spaceship on your control... I can't believe you've been playing Gradius for years and never listened the spaceship's main computer saying ***OPTION*** - This is NOT a joke... It's just me, being nostalgic about Gradiu's sound effects.

  • @couldnotic
    @couldnotic 13 років тому

    I haven't seen this game for like 12 to 13 years. I was trying to figure out what the name of the game was. So I looked it up on Google "All Super nintendo games" went to Wikipedia and found a list of game and found the name of the game I was trying to remember. This Game was always my favorite game when I was little. besides Super Mario World.

  • @Toad22484
    @Toad22484  17 років тому

    Yeah I find E-lasers to be a quite the boss killer, but not that great for the stages. Though, some people love E-lasers with Rotating options. To each there own.

  • @Toad22484
    @Toad22484  17 років тому

    The order I saw was a odd, it had Gradius then Life Force then Gradius III or Nemesis I dont remember which but Gradius II was last. I honestly don't know the order.

  • @EyeOfTheTiger666
    @EyeOfTheTiger666 17 років тому

    damn man...I couldn't beat it on hard without dying. I'd always make it by that part near the end where all those crystals come at you. Took me a while to realize those E-lasers aren't so great in places like that...or that last part before the final boss.

  • @brohdaw

    I cant believe this never came out in europe! Apparantly according to one of my dad's friends who used to own a games shop here in the uk it was one of the most imported games on the snes. But why no release? Was it because it took until summer 92 for the SNES to reach our shores and that axelay was out and so much more technically impressive which would make Gradius 3 look like an old game? Who knows, but its fucking awesome! fucking hard too.
