Konami ruined scaling/rotation for me with their horrible Castlevania games for GBA.

Well to be fair, the only thing good about ANY Castlevania was the music.

Yeah, fanboys. I just went there. Commence the flames, but I'm sticking by my guns.

I'm more of a Parodious/Gradius fanboy.

Yeah I guess that's pretty true. Except of course about the music bit. At least the GBA/DS games (Aria of whatever, GBA in particular) feature some of the worst noise I have heard in my life.

The PCE/PS1 games had nice music though.

Yeah, the GBA chips doesn't really do the music justice, but I like the new DS game's music. It's classic Yuzo Koshiro.

Agreed.

Adding PCE console specific layer on top of that, makes for an interesting challenge (no, not a reference to Ys II).

The SNES's Mosaic effect was rarely put to good use. The only game I can think of that did anything good with it is Super Turrican.

I've always thought that the walking while poisoned effect in games like the Final Fantasy's was the best use of it.

Ummm... why?  Parodius I can understand.  But Gradius?  It's so.... bland!

Gradius 5 does indeed kick ass.  The only good thing about any of the other Gradius games was some (not all) of the music.  This is absolute 100% fact.  It is written in the Bible and the Koran.

Kitsu is afraid that Cho Aniki may release suppressed feelings hidden deep inside of him.  :)
