- 6015Got the score 93100. This game is hard. Using the Konami Code while paused yields a full power-up, and I'm using it to get a chance of getting past the two volcanos. I reached stage 2 and was killed by a swarm of Zubs.
- 6017Got the score 128400. Reached stage 3, the one with the Moai heads.
- 6699Yikes, so difficult.
- 6700That demo "AI" is disappointingly stupid.
- 6701The two cheats:
- Pause game, then Konami Code (UUDDLRLRBA Start) to get full option level.
- On Game Over screen, press DUBABABA Start to continue. Can only be done once.
- 6702Got the score 134300.
- 6728Hnnggg... this game ... so hard.
- 7998Erik's Nintendo Classic Edition had Gradius on it, and I had to try how far I could get. It actually went OK, I reached the Moai heads before I was shot down and got stuck with the awful starting weapons.
- 8200The second time I played Gradius on Erik's NES Classic. Too difficult.
- 10025Got the Challenger 1985 achievement. - Playing on RetroArch with the Mesen core.
- 11774Erik brought out the NES Classic and we played a bunch of the games. I didn't remember how to input the Konami code so I couldn't get far in Gradius.
