Raiden / Kyukyoku Tiger

[soop]

I asked because there are two games in the title.

Oh yeah, forgot Raiden was on the PCE.

Kyukyoku Tiger and Raiden are both solid pick-ups. I love them both especially how the sound chip treats their music.

raiden and kyukyoki are both top huey shewties on the pce. they are playing super smoothee, thats what makes 'em so good.

had the MD kyukyoki in the other day and HAD to switch off after just few mins of playtime. intolerable!

just kicked that game straight into my sales box (and I usually keep all kind of shewties).

Ok, so I just got this over the weekend... I was gonna ask if people used the turbo switches - I think it's nice to play it without, though I'd like an arcade stick to play it that way.  But it is very arcadey, something I've only really felt from Daimakaimura before, maybe Street Fighter II back in the day.  I like it.

And I love the powerup system, but I need to find out more about it.

soop!

Great game.

ON TURBO-SWITCHES: I hold an unpopular view of turbo-swiches (for most games I leave them off, even shoot-em-ups). Personally, I enjoy most games more when I don't rely on auto-fire.

Yes, I am a masochist. Part of the skill, I feel, is in pressing the damn fire button.

Of course, I wouldn't hold others to this masochistic standard for shoot-em-ups (unless it was Sinistron or R-type where turbo messes up the charge-shot).

I have a shooting watch.  I'm ready.  It's what I trained for.

Definitely. But, if you end up using autofire after a few hours, don't worry, I still love you.

One day you'll build up the stamina and strength to be Champion.
