Darius -- THE ARCADE GAME, PEOPLE!!

Okay.  Once upon a time, the greatest arcade game series of all time was created.  A series known as DARIUS.  A game where you fight giant mutant robot fish in space.  Far fetched, I know.  But just listen for a while.  This game was previously unknown in Scratch.  Being import only, I can understand that.  (Also, before you get the wrong idea, My emulation knowledge spans from NES to arcade games, so don't go crazy on me here, I emulated them.)  Like many good scratchers, seeing that this was something new to Scratch, I instinctively shared it with us in a recent project of mine.  Now here are some screenies of the ones I emulate, so you can at least see some of this game before hating me for emulation.

Instead of pre-boss cutscenes, you normally had this come up, warning you which boss you were going to fight next.

The boss "Ancient Dozer"

I'll Post screenshots of G-Darius later if some forumers want.

In japan, possibly, but not here.  There are actually even a few let's plays-- in English.  Thus proving that  it was fun enough to stir up enough interest for Americans to notice it.

Americans aren't interested in anything that would be un-american.
Wait, JELLYFISH?!?!

R-Type clone, I think. Or R-Type was the clone. Don't know what came first. Either way, both look the same.

Oh yeah, [insert hate here]. Naw...

I emulate too. GB/GBC/GBA, DS, and Arcade, and way back when, PS1, N64, and PS2 alongside the previously mentioned.. I also had another...hmmm...

DS??  Ds emulation is illegal!!  Well, anything that has games still being produced for it is illegal.  that means wii, ps3, 360, and ds.  Everything else is fine.

Nope. DS isn't illegal. If you own the games you emulate, of course. DESMume is probably the best out of all I have tried (And I have used them all...NO$GBA, iDeaS, the others that I forgot)

A tad slow with the 3D, no matter how fast your system is...:\
