This video includes only official versions of the game. Please don't ask for clones or homebrews. They will be included in another video dedicated to unlicensed versions. Other versions have been discluded as they are pure emulation of versions already present in the video.
In 1989, Konami released another MSX version with improved sound in the pack Game Collection Vol. 3. In order to get this better sound quality, you had to insert a cartridge with the SCC sound chip while playing the game.
In the final part of the video, you will find gameplay from other versions of the game that, despite not being direct ports of the original game, have some very similar levels.
We have also included the The Legend of the Mystical Ninja minigame that allows you to play the first full level of Gradius.
Which is your favorite version?

The PC Engine version is my absolute favorite version due to the arranged soundtrack. You can also enter the Konami code on there at the beginning of the game when you pause it. I love the SEGA Saturn version which is a straight port, but with additional options. The X68000 port is definitely an accurate port done by SPS. SPS was also responsible for SEGA's Thunder Blade port. I also loved how M2 gave a major love letter to the franchise on Gradius ReBirth on Wii, but since the Wii VC is no more, it should've also got a Switch release. Konami should get off their tails and do a ReBirth collection, and bring M2 on board again.

Famicom version seems more superior than arcade, except for 3 things: - Multiple orbs (Multiple/Option) was limited to 2 as Maximum. - Lack of up/down scrolling stages. - Collision error at selecting "Shield"; despite Shield at Arcade and MSX versions allows to protect Vic Viper only at front, in Famicom version protects all ship, giving origin to "Force Field" In that compilation, shown only the Nes version due to Konami 1986-1998 logo and extended copyright stamp. Famicom version has the logo used until 1986, also shows Hi-Score (50000 instead of "Gonami00" or 57300) and includes for first time the Konami Code. Famicom/Nes version of "Gradius" was one of first Konami's games with "Contra" sounds source. Also was first Konami game which surpassed Famicom/Nes hardware limit. (By example, the fading out music before facing sub-boss)

there was a second official tg16 port included on the turbografx mini console. entitled "gradius near arcade" is tries to be a more direct port of the arcade version (tbf, the pc engine port was something of an enhanced port especially in the music department), even going so far as to include the "warming up" sequence from the japanese arcade version (in Japan, the arcade version ran on a system that used bubble memmory that had to be heated to a certain temprature to work correctly;the western version used standard rom chips for cost and reliability reasons). unfortunatly no one bothered to extract the RoMS exclusive to the mini and since it had the misfortune of coming out early in the covid-19 pandemic I doubt it sould that well to begin with. speaking of the japanese arcade version, the version present in the gradius deluxe pack features the warming up sequence as a skippable cutscene, leaving me to believe it was based on that rather than the rom version.

Great spread, kind of was a downhill slide for a time after the sharp until the nicer audio MSX release, still the TG16/PCE version kills it as the best all around play, audio, visual in the 80s choices as it's just remarkable. Really dig the extras, nice seeing the Uk version of the Konami GB Collectoin at play, amazing selection on all 4 of those volumes and #4 has the Gradius(and Castlevania) sequel too. Still amazes me though how well the GB did the series justice, even taking down the NES at the time with a nicer flowing detailed game (even the Core was larger.) The DS emulated copy was pretty great too, had that in the day as well, just harder to play due to the small window and tiny bullets, a problem in those days on the little panels when a game didn't get tweaked for it like the made for gameboy couple of titles. Grabbed the Konami arcade package on Steam when it was finally 75% off a week back, got to fire that up and get the original experience as it has been ages.
