Need FreeMCboot? I'll install it on your PS2 Memory Card for free if you cover postage both ways.
Consoles: I have too much stuff
Arcade: No seriously, I have too much stuff. Someone grab a shovel and dig me out of my basement.

Thank you mjmjr25 for doing this year's STGT.

Now, alongside Together Retro, it's time for Raiden! Post scores here if possible, but I'll watch the TR discussion thread for scores posted there.

*INFORMATION*
MAME romset: raiden.zip
Description: Raiden (set 1)

Please use default settings. 3 lives & normal/medium diffculty.

Other formats accepted: TurboGrafx 16, SNES, Genesis, Jaguar, Lynx, Playstation, DOS, Raiden Legacy (PC port ONLY!)
NOTE: Genesis port has an additional 9th stage.
NOTE 2: The mobile versions of Raiden Legacy do NOT let you change the number of lives for Raiden. It starts you off with 5 lives. You CAN change the number of lives to 3 on the PC version, so I will only be counting scores for PC.

Autofire: Whatever your port, go for it if available.

Format: Name - Score - Stage - Port

A start. I always found the first game ridiculously hard.

Put an hour or so into this on MAME. Made it to about 1-2. The difficulty spike from 1-1 to 1-2 is surprising. Spreadshot is definitely the way to go, and I prefer upgrading homing missile over the other.

Yeah, even though I can't legit get to Stage 2 yet, I've continued to it for "content tourism purposes." There are all of a sudden way more ships and bullets for sure.
