I just got my 1cc on Darius Gaiden (my first shmup 1cc ever), and just wanted to say thanks as this video and your run on Shmup Slam 3 were huge inspirations and study material for me on the path. I love this game.
Thanks! I'm glad you got something out of it! I really should do a commentary on my shmup slam run. I've started playing G-Darius as well. Let me know if you upload your 1cc, I'd love to see it! :)
Very interesting it is (unfortunatly) uncommon that people upload a detailed guide like that. Thanks, you deserve far more followers.C stage boss is very difficult for beginners.i took the top route as a starter.
@@GojiGuy That's Correct. In the image its my Atomiswave SD cab with Darius Gaiden Extra version . I have 6 cabs total . Also the ash tray is from a shooting team I Participate in . I was stoked to see you used it in the beginning . Your videos are very helpful . thank you
Haven't actually beaten Darius Gaiden yet as I just started playing it again recently, so I haven't seen the ending text scroll yet and man that cracked me up. That's uh, definitely one of the translations of all time.
This game is tough (I mean, in traditional TAITO fashion, it's all about putting you in very tough situations relentlessly)... but oh so beautiful. You've definitely motivated me to track a copy down! Though from what I've heard this game isn't very balanced for auto-fire... not that I'm complaining, need all the help I can get >< I feel if you can do well at this game G. Darius would also be worth trying, I remember way back when I used to own the PS1 version I was able to get as far as the fourth stage (out of five... or was it six?) on one credit without much thought.
Yeah, I mean it isn't balanced for auto fire, but it is (IMO) way more fun with it. Every arcade unit I've encountered has it as well. And FWIW the autofire does crank up the rank, so it balances it a bit. I just did my first 1cc of G-Darius. Loving it!
I'm not sure if I've seen it displayed, but it's kinda big. Smaller than the ship, but not danmaku sized I also believe the hitbox size increases when you have shields
In this run I mostly use turbo, in my other run on the channel (and my shmup slam run) I alternate much more. Mostly to deal with bullet limits on screen, but also rank and some boss patterns.
I don't remember what the default settings are to be honest. I set my controls ages ago to mimic the arcade setup. I believe it offers a separate turbo button at default but everything is customizable.

Did you do Zone M on your run??

Thanks! I'm hoping to upload more guides and content soon.
this was really helpful. decided to go back and try again after watching this and got my first 1cc
Congrats!
Beautiful work, man.
Great Video , I like that you have a photo of my small arcade in the beginning of your video . Your Video helped me get a 1cc . Thank you for posting.
Is that your own Gaiden cab? That's awesome! Glad the video was helpful!

Yeah, the endings in this game are something... If you can even read them in time! 😂
Great video, this and G-Darius are the games I have yet to 1cc in the series
Prbly the easiest one in the series?
Great video man. I'll use some of these strategies next time I play on my saturn. Liked and subbed
Great video. Thank you. I love this game.
Nice playthrough, i die many times after level 1 ;$. But i still love the games of the cozmic collection.
Capturing is hell in this game. Still gotta try to learn on how I can survive in this game.
I got my 1cc last night felt great
congrats!
I like the route you took in this video. Don't see too many 1ccs with Electric fan in them
With the right weapon he makes for a really easy boss 3. And he's not a hard milk when playing for score!

Do you use the analog stick or the d-pad (directional buttons)
if I'm playing portable, d-pad. If I'm playing at home, arcade stick.
What is the hit box of the ship in Darius Gaiden?
I'm not sure if I've seen it displayed, but it's kinda big. Smaller than the ship, but not danmaku sized
I also believe the hitbox size increases when you have shields
Friend of mine had it on Sega Saturn. Could never get past Neon Light Illusion
He's a real jerk. Jaimers had a great strategy for taking him on without using any bombs
Are you using turbo for the most part? Or do you tend to alternate?
In this run I mostly use turbo, in my other run on the channel (and my shmup slam run) I alternate much more. Mostly to deal with bullet limits on screen, but also rank and some boss patterns.
Is the turbo enabled by default on the switch version?
I don't remember what the default settings are to be honest. I set my controls ages ago to mimic the arcade setup. I believe it offers a separate turbo button at default but everything is customizable.
Electric Fan is hard than Folding Fan.
Can do 1cc without Turbo ON?
