Hey Everyone,

Wondering if anyone actually has a Darius Gaiden Extra cartridge. Was it just a version bump, or was is a new product? Does the cartridge actually say "Extra Version" on it anywhere (e.g. do you have to plug the cartridge in to see if it's the extra version or not?) Is the part number the same between Darius Gaiden and Darius Gaiden Extra?

I don't know much about its release.
 
Hey,

Darius Gaiden Extra is an "official hack", it was never an official Taito product. People play it on MAME or make their own carts. As I understand it, Taito showed responsibility for it, but I can't say anything about how it got out of Taito or its ROM dumping history – would be interested in learning more about that myself.

Cheers!
 
Fascinating!

Wow, if anyone has more details I would love to know more! Thanks for letting me know this, I had no idea! :)
