RQ:DoDonPachi Area 6 and Secret Boss

Post by ForteMP3 »

I recently discovered Bee Preying, which has some EXCELLENT coverage of Areas 1 through 5 of DDP. However, I'm still completely lost on Area 6 and the hidden boss that appears at the end of loop 2, both of which I've found no helpful tactics for. Are there any good resources or guides out there for the final parts of DDP?

You can also access the stage and boss sections in the above guide. Yet since the guide is in Japanese, I doubt it is a good enough resource, but it's the best one I can find. I based my guide from this one.

Also, I remember using Altavista's machine translator and Aichi-Ken's replay to understand this guide. (I prefer Excite's machine translator now, though.)

Where can I get Aichi Ken's replay at?

Offhand, I don't remember.

However, you might be interested in Takuro's MAME replay, which achieves a higher score than Aichi-Ken's. The information to play it is in here:
