Does Gradius IV work on ANY emulator??...

Post by dave4shmups »

I tried it on Mame32 v.92, and the game wouldn't work.

Is there ANY emulator out there that this game will work on? I'd sure like to know if there is.

No, there isn't any emulator. But if you ever plan on getting that US PS2 again, you can easily find the Gradius III/IV pack for $15 used.

OK thanks for the info!

I dunno about $15; the cheapest I've seen a complete copy go for on Ebay is about $35, and that's minus shipping and handling.

Look harder. There were a couple of BIN's months ago where the game went for $25 new. You should be able to find the game for $20 complete on Ebay if you're patient. The game is probably at a high now.

I mentioned the $15 in case you didn't mind getting a copy from EB, Gamestop, Gamefly, or the like.

OK, well I just wouldn't have thought that such game stores would even carry such a relatively rare PS2 game. Thanks!

So that means I should grab the one at the local EB next time I'm there? I think it's going for $15, and that'll give me all 5 numbered Gradius games (although I'll only be able to play 1 and 2 on the hardware I have...)

Ah crap, stop calling games "rare" and perhaps a lot of games will drop in price instead of skyrocketing. Repeat after me

"Gradius 4 is NOT rare at all"
"Radiant Silvergun is NOT rare at all"
"Panzer Dragoon Saga is NOT rare at all"
"Dodonpachi (PSX) is NOT that rare"
"Harmful Park is NOT that rare"

Help me out here, guys.

You mean Panzer Dragoon Saga, the RPG spinoff? Panzer Dragoon Otra sells for cheap.
