Hinagiku playing Gunhed on "Hayate no Gotoku!"

Holy crap, on a SuperGrafx. Hardcore.

lol Gradius V

Opa Opa(?) in Monogatari Second Season

In the anime "Katanagatari," at the beginning of one of the episodes, there is a parody of Taito's "KiKi KaiKai" arcade game.

I forget the episode number, though.

Edit: Episode 7

Outbreak Company episode 8

Space Invaders parody in Saint Young Men OVA:

Ok, what's going on here in this topic? Are these two games for real? Mostly interested in Regaria. That ship looks cool. But looking on the net all I could find was this wiki picture. How do I get Regaria?

They're not real. They're mockups of fake games made for the show.

From "Nyaruko"

It drives me insane whenever shit mixes up the location of A and B on a faux-Famicom pad.

Space Dandy had a very brief Galaga parody during the race episode (which is appropriate seeing how they did a tie in Galaga game for mobile phones). Can't find a good screencap though.

Here it is:

Though a parody, it will be an actual game though, lol.

What, no mention of Opa-Opa spoof character Opal being one of the main characters in the manga/anime series about the console wars called World War Blue (Aoi Sekai no Chūshin de)?



Volume 4 and 5 of the manga even has Opal and Gear (Sonic) fighting spoof versions every boss in the first Fantasy Zone game, including Opal's father and her being all depressed about it.

From the 1978 anime, "Space Pirate Captain Harlock."

That same orb appears in Konami's "Trigon:"

Technically that'd be an anime parody in a shmup though, heh.

From the 1981 anime "Dr. Slump," episode 16:



Dr. Slump was originally a gag manga by Akira Toriyama, who is best known as the creator of Dragon Ball, DBZ, GT, etc...

Who watches this crap

Much of the shmup forums?

You DO realize that many shmups, being from Japan and all, also borrow quite heavily from anime, manga, and vice-versa, right?

Although this is not from anime, in the Super Sentai series "Winged Squadron Jetman," episode 9, one of the main characters was playing Raiga Strato Fighter in an arcade:

Well, this is in a manga but why make another thread? The manga is called High Score Girl.

Guess Hinagiku doesn't like Gradius V that much, it's a shame since Gradius was already referenced in a previous episode of Hayate the Combat Butler and that Konami is financing the anime...

Galaga/Asteroids type game in a cocktail cabinet from Patalliro (1982).
