Darius 2 - Stage 1 / Zone A (W route)

This is a video showing my best score on the classic shooter Darius 2.

Player: SMRAEDIS
Date Recorded: 23rd March 2004

Old replay for an old game!
This is Darius 2, or Sagaia, the second in Taito's Darius series of shoot em up games.
Released back in 1989, this arcade game was on 2 big screens next to each other.
Sadly, this meant the game could only be played this way, only on the dedicated cabinets, and no console ports can give the same experience either.

The game is an impovement over the first Darius, with far better looking shot types, and better looking fish bosses too.
This game introduced mid-bosses into the game too, some of them are quite difficult to beat.

I really enjoyed this game, and was one of the first games I tried to learn.

I love how a lot of the classic Taito games are dual screens, for example, The Ninja Warriors and Rastan III. Earliest wide screen example?

Maybe because the first Darius game never came to the west on home systems?
