New Elements for Switch – With the ability to switch between the “Mikado Remix” background music set and the “Original” background music set, as well as the “Sound Mode” and “Stage Background Music Select” functions, you can enjoy the new sounds of Raiden to your heart’s content. Additionally, the game supports vertical screen play in both table and TV modes, recreating the full arcade experience.

 

A Full Suite of Game Modes – “Arcade Mode,” which is a complete port of the arcade game, as well as “Additional Mode” and “Overkill Mode,” which include the stages added for console, have been perfectly reproduced. Various other game modes are also available, including “Boss Rush Mode,” a series of battles against boss weapons, and “Score Attack Mode,” where you compete for the high score on a single stage.

 

Online Functionality – Compete against other players on the worldwide leaderboards in “World Ranking Mode.” You can also upload your gameplay online via “Replay Publish,” allowing you to show your recorded gameplay to the world and study the gameplay of your rivals. Use the online functionality to discover a strategy all your own.

 

One of the best raiden games, and a physical copy. Switch now has its sights set on Dreamcast for the SHMUP crown. 360 has been surpassed.

 

Also, Raiden V was trash because it was developed with the XBONE in mind, crap tacked on online functionality, and no way to flip the screen vertically.

 

It's good to see a real raiden experience tailor made for switch.

M2 is the best in the game, and they've had their hands on the darius collections, Esp.ra.de. and now they're doing the Aleste collection which is a collection of a few $1000's dollars worth of impossible to find gamegear shmups

 

Incredible times ahead for shmup fans on Switch
