Well it WAS in Gradius Advance's opening, yet Parodius was not, so I'm guessing Sala is a Gradius game.ROBOTRON wrote:Or Lifeforce.Nuke wrote:Everybody always forgets MSX Gradius and Gradius Advance -_-
Nothing on Play-Asia except Konami, Konami, and more Konami, and Last Hope...Gradius 6 exist on PS3 in Japan? My searches on Play-Asia and NCSX came up negative...is it called something else? Could someone provide a link or is this phantomware?
could you tell me about it? What's new? More stages? still 2P? Better or worseEOJ wrote:Yeah, I played it last week. Pretty good, but not as good as Ketsui 2. Ketsui 2 is a lot more fun to play in Japan.Lili-Xiang wrote:
Someone told me that there IS Gradius VI (6) out in Japan on the PS3 already.
And that doesn´t even mention Gradius LCD (which sucks balls but is nice as a collector´s item I guess) and the Gradius Board game (now that is something I´d like to play with the family...they probably wouldn´t thoughPFG 9000 wrote:What about Nemesis 90 Kai and the two gameboy Gradius games?Nuke wrote:Everybody always forgets MSX Gradius and Gradius Advance -_-

If you watch the opening to Gradius Galaxies/Generation/Advance, Scramble is included in the opening scene along with prior games in the series. And ew, someone likes Scramble?jp wrote:How is Scramble a part of Gradius?
*I loves me some Scramble!!!!! Don't like Gradius though. Parodius and Salamander are cool though*
So it might not be up to Gradius' standards and surely not as good as it, but it WAS a fantastic game for it's time. I remember enjoying the MSX incarnation many years later even.crithit5000 wrote: If you watch the opening to Gradius Galaxies/Generation/Advance, Scramble is included in the opening scene along with prior games in the series.

There was scramble for MSX? Aren't you thinking of Super Cobra?Super Laydock wrote:So it might not be up to Gradius' standards and surely not as good as it, but it WAS a fantastic game for it's time.

Ummm.. that's a contradiction in terms.Shatterhand wrote:I don't forget the MSX gradii (of course), is just that we are talking about the "main" series, which is usually regarded as being I, II, III, IV, Gaiden and V.
I still think the music is the best. "Requiem for Revengers" is my favourite, followed by the boss rush music.Shatterhand wrote: (And yet I believe many people still consider it better than V)
I've heard it refers to a sequel or a second part of a series. Still believe it mean side-story tho.FrederikJurk wrote:In that case, what is "Ninja Gaiden" supposed to mean?
Ala Ryusei no Rockman. They butchered the names highly.Mortificator wrote:A title that's supposed to be easier for Westerners to pronounce than the game's name in Japan, "Ninja Ryukenden."
The Japanese word Gaiden (外伝, often translated as "side-story" or "tale") is used to refer to an anecdote or supplementary biography of a person. The term Gaiden is commonly used in popular Japanese fiction to refer to a spinoff (canonical or otherwise) of a previously published work that is not officially considered a sequel nor a prequel. However, some "Gaiden" story are retold stories in the perspective a different character, similar to that of a flashback.
Oddly enough, the GG Ninja Gaiden and the recent Xbox and PS3 Ninja Gaidens are called "Ninja Gaiden" in Japan.Mortificator wrote:A title that's supposed to be easier for Westerners to pronounce than the game's name in Japan, "Ninja Ryukenden."FrederikJurk wrote:In that case, what is "Ninja Gaiden" supposed to mean?
