Super Raiden is an enhanced CD-Rom version of the same game released in 1991
on HuCard by Hudson Soft. This is the conversion of of the vertical shooter created
by Seibu Kaihatsu in 1990. As the arcade, this conversion offers detailed
graphics and 10 varied and gigantic levels, from green hills to complex cities
and space stations. Your ship is equiped with a main weapon which varies from a
vulcan spread gun or a powerful and destructive front laser beam. Secondary
missiles are also available ( homing or straight ). Bigger ships can be
destroyed during the game to collect power-ups, Red Capusules to enhance your
spread gun, or blue for the laser beam. Another destructive weapon is the bomb
which can be dropped on your enemies and destroy nearly everything on screen.
However, as you would expect, they are available in limited quantities but
more can be collected along the way. Special items can also collected, like fairies
or the P capsules which maxi-power up your weapon.

This conversion from Hudson Soft is totally amazing ( even if,
personnaly, I always prefered Raiden 2 ). I am still
not sure if it really makes sence to buy this version if you already
own the HuCard version, but personnaly, I would. However the game
is really hard and you will many times hate it, few of the last level
bosses are virtually impossible to beat ! This conversion is one of
the best one ever made, I think (except for the one for the Playstation
I guess, but it probably uses the original arcade Rom). All in all,
this game is dynamite ! My only complains would be the difficulty
but also the absence of an introduction sequence and animations
inbetween levels, this would have been ace and kind of expected
for a CDRom version.
