I had this game for the Commodore 64. The graphics were not as good as this but the music was definately better with a great baseline. Even had some speech after the game finished loading - "Nemesis, the final challenge". Highly addictive gameplay.
Oh God, I had an MSX; a Toshiba HX-10, I think it was called. Am I right in thinking that it was one of the first - if not *the* first - machines to have a CD-Rom drive and cartridges with dedicated soundchips? A great machine - underrated and undersupported, as I recall, at least here in the UK. And in the UK at least, 'Gradius' was indeed called 'Nemesis'. . .maybe because Gradius didn't really make sense to anyone at the time!
there are several PC remakes plus an online version (all are called Nemesis, which is confusing cos the Gameboy version of Gradius is called Nemesis aswell) I believe Gradius was changed to Nemesis in Europe. Konami had a horrible habit of totally renaming games for Europe for example Contra was called Probotector and had robots in it if im not mistaken. And to confuse us even more Super C was changed to Grayzor
