I played this game more than thousand hour but i never finish it, now i know i was this close from the end, too sad i died before i reach the final battleship
How does exactly Gradius sprites work? I mean, suppose the ship takes 2 sprites to render (the white part, and the color part - which is either the red cockpit or the blue shadow), then you have at least 2 "options" around you most of the time, then you have missiles... plus some of the enemies are not made up by characters. That's a whole lot of sprites, and you can have only 4 per line simultaneously before it flickers. But I don't remember it flickering too much.
Because the games were shit? Compared to machines at the time. I'd even say the 1982 Spectrum 16K had better games than this, only the sound sounds a bit better on MSX, but not as good as the C64's SID.
HBH ZTH Ha HA HA. Are you kidding me? EURO COMPUTERS ARE SHIT (Amiga, Atari, ZX) EURO CONSOLES ARE SHIT (Jaguar, CD32, GX1000) EURO GAMES ARE SHIT (literally all of them lol) These are well understood facts among serious gamers, It's Japan, then US a distant 2nd, then Eurotrash 3rd. (Yes, that was the actual term back in the day!)
EX Heihachi The 80's were dominated by good quality EU games, superior to most other home computers, even to consoles. The 90s and since I was into the PC computer scene and never looked back. Consoles became for the poor spoiled kids who didn't appreciate thinking games, but wanted a shoot em up in good graphics. Strategic and complex games were all Amiga/PC until the 3D cards became available, after that the cutting edge of video gaming has been PC ever since.
EX Heihachi The best software from 1981-1985 from the US came out on Atari and C64, which pretty much looked the same in graphics and execution. From 1985 the US was parked by games from Europe, mostly the UK and the C64 versions were the best versions in most cases (some were primary for Amstrad and Spectrum had had not so convertions to the C64). Soundwise the C64 were best in all systems up until Amiga/Atari ST came out with good games. Name me a handfulll of original MSX games that came out, where the C64 versions were of lesser quality. I would be interested to hear this. The MSX never became a major system in Europe, except for some Spanish and French titles, but no bestsellers as I can remember.

この作品でMSX1の性能を最大限に引き出したと思う。
初めてのプレイで、1プレイヤーを選択した直後のSCC音源でゾクゾクッとしたし、グラフィックで魅了されたし、神殿ステージの仕掛けにド肝抜かれたし、追加オプション要素に開発者の本気度を見た。
今でも、あの感動を覚えてる。
One of the best games to grace early home computers and the inclusion of the SCC was genius.
難しい難しいと言われるけど後の沙羅曼蛇(MSX)の鬼畜さを考えたらまだ頑張ってやる気になる難易度だと思ってます
何十年間もずっと、アバドン艦の事をアドバン艦と思ってました
アーケードとは異なる異色の作品。特に３面の神殿ステージ曲には聴き入ったなぁ…結局どうしてもクリアできなかった。このゲームをクリア出来る人は凄いと今でも思います。
やっぱ4面のBGM最高だわ
古川もとあきの真骨頂発揮って感じで
カートリッジの裏技はサラマンダをスロット1、グラ2をスロット2に挿してプレイすると、サラマンダの真のエンディングにたどり着けるとか、10倍カートリッジをスロット2に入れて対応するゲームをスロット1に入れると少し楽できる、とかありましたね。
だいぶやり込んだ、思い出のゲームです(^_^)b
懐かしいなぁ♪
たしか、沙羅曼蛇のカートリッジをスロット２に入れるとフル装備で始められたような気がｗ
UPレーザーやナパームミサイル等、これが1番最強の機体なんじゃないでしょうか？
何かで復活してくれないかなぁ。
またやりたくなってしまったｗ
動画UPありがとうございます♪
懐かしいなぁ。ステージ毎に装備が増やせるシステム。ファミコンにはない仕様でしたね
this game is one of the best games that i have played.
Great memories from when i was a kid. And it was great to see the hidden stage going into the boss's eye, it blew my mind when i did that.
別のカートリッジ挿す、裏ワザあるの海外の人達は知ってるんだろうかｗ
いまだ、（思い出補正）最高のゲームタイトルですよ。これ
Greeeeat!!! (ﾟ∀ﾟ)ノ
音楽はイケメンだが過酷なゲーム。
プレイヤー上手すぎでワロタｗ
復路のエキストラステージの自爆は次の面のメイス対策ですね！
分かります！
I still love those mountains...if you know the graphical limitations of the msx1 they are even more awesome.
『メタリオンは、ただちに惑星グラディウスにもどれ！』
やっとクリアした俺「は！？」
When will the deathstar arrive whahahaha, I loved this game when I was a kid !! Great music and graphics for the time...
ラスボスは、撃ちながら雷避けて斜め下へ前進、撃たずに弾避けバックの繰り返しでクリアしました。
何度もミスって復活して最高に緊張＆感動のエンディングだったけど、ネットで安全地帯の存在を知ってショックでした。
本日発売３０周年だそうです。おめでとうございます！

Nice.
I played this game more than thousand hour but i never finish it, now i know i was this close from the end, too sad i died before i reach the final battleship
It was a very hard game to play indeed.
I am also a true "Nemesis" vet.

懐かしい。
アバドン倒してやったー!と思ったらあの展開でしかも惑星を攻略し直しで辟易したのを思い出しました
サントラカセット版を持っている。CD版は探しても見つからない。
パワーアップの能力をボスから奪うってのは、斬新。
当時コントローラーが無かったから、右手で十字キー操作・・・。
悔やまれる。クリアできなかった。
エンディングのセリフ
「…そのときには、また出動してくれるかい。」
「そうだな…ロックでもやりながらかんがえてみるよ。」
やりたくないんだろうなあー
敵味方に分かれてるとはいえ同じ少数民族だし（そういう設定）
とか子供心に考えたのを思い出しまつた
動画ありが㌧
エクストラステージで自爆するより、エクストラステージに入らなければいいのに・・・
Why didn't MSX catch on in North America? Such an awesome system with incredible games!
Because the games were shit? Compared to machines at the time. I'd even say the 1982 Spectrum 16K had better games than this, only the sound sounds a bit better on MSX, but not as good as the C64's SID.
HBH ZTH Ha HA HA. Are you kidding me?

グラディウス2とグラディウスⅡは別物なんだっけ
@HolyRS: LOADS of Memory :P. Thesewere MegaCarts that basically brute forced the issue :).
ゲームばっかりしてると目が悪くなるって言われた理由が分かる。目がチカチカする。
sadly, the video is lagging a lot... :S
That's how the game looks
내 기억으로는 우주선이 아니라 금붕어 모양이었는데 이상하네
なんでエクストラステージ入る度に自爆するの？
自爆した方が早いからでしょ
Какая-то тормознутая версия
