triforce_keeper Posted December 2, 2007 Posted December 2, 2007 This was one of my favourite SNES games, it was just so crazy! And incredibly hard (well from what I can remember it was, but that's probably because I was very young) Classic game, hope it gets released on the VC! Thoughts on the game?
rapunzel Posted December 2, 2007 Posted December 2, 2007 The game was/is totally nuts, a flying penguin or squid as your ship is most definitely a plus though I thought it was way better than gradius.
triforce_keeper Posted December 3, 2007 Author Posted December 3, 2007 Yeah I also loved the dying tune, "dum dum dum dum dum, dum dum!" Ok that probably wasn't very specific but...yeah.
rapunzel Posted December 3, 2007 Posted December 3, 2007 Argh I now have the tune running through my head.....
4q2 Posted December 3, 2007 Posted December 3, 2007 Was a fantastic game. Being a fan of Parody, Gradius/Nemesis, and Pop and twinbee/Bells and whistles, I was hard pushed to find a reason to dislike the title.
IMJ Posted December 3, 2007 Posted December 3, 2007 IMO Parodius kicks Gradius' ass anytime. While I do love the Gradius serie, Parodius is just so much more fun. It's wacky, it's diverse. The Octopus makes a fart when Speeding up, how crazy can it get? I played the NES version to death, but it's the 2nd and 3rd iteration that Parodius got at its best. Who can remember the "paperplane man" shooting sperm as bullets and having a condom as shield? Hilarious! Shame about the slowdown though. I'd love to see the serie return. I did had a PSP collection last year and there's a touchscreen semi-sequel in the arcades in Japan (either released or in the making). Who knows, maybe it'll head to Wii, WiiWare or DS some time...

Got this on Gameboy, for a Gameboy game It amazing.
daftada Posted December 31, 2007 Posted December 31, 2007 Loved playing this on emulator years ago, was lucky enough to find a copy at a car boot last summer for a quid! Would loveto see this, Parodious 2 and Sexy Parodious on VC.
Phube Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 I would love this on the VC... And TwinBee!!! Pleeeeeeeeeeeeease Nintendo... give us 'em!!
Darkspine S Posted January 5, 2008 Posted January 5, 2008 Can't play my version of NES Parodius anymore. Say what you like about the consoles infinate lifespan, but the same can't be said of its games. Hurry up with the VC release Konami/Nintendo!
