that one game that takes up a crapton of space in the arcade but doesn't really feel worth it if you're not playing with your lads. slow speed and simple patterns make it not the most exciting game in the world, but it's definitely worth a try if you like fish/robotic fish etc.. nice music too

Very mid but the cab is something else, does the whole double-wide thing like X-Men but in a shared cockpit with hazard lights and surround sound.

Decent STG, real draw is the huge ass cabinet and the double screen presentation of the Darius series. Great music. Made me realize the spectacle and experience has always been the selling feature of Darius, which aren't ever the most interesting or challenging STG games. You want to go back and play it at the arcade so you can get your hair blown back. Now that arcades at least in the US are generally enthusiast spaces, the cabinet doesn't feel nearly as exciting as whatever classic you're there to play. But it's a cool memorable time, an artifact of the period where arcade machines were fighting to produce experiences that home consoles couldn't recreate.
