That's a ton of bullets to dodge! You'd have to be a video game masochist to take on this kind of boss! O_O

Ugh! What horrid design. Masochist indeed.
"You tell yourself to just
enjoy the process," he added. "That whether you succeed or fail, win or
lose, it will be fine. You pretend to be Zen. You adopt detachment, and
ironic humor, while secretly praying for a miracle."

I like how there is no possible way to avoid the shots in the end there. As a coin op game that thing would kill ;)

:(
I remember seeing this a while back and wondering how much money was spent just trying to get this far. And that includes the time spent playing this game to memorize every single fire pattern.
God needed the Devil, the Beatles needed the Rolling Stones, Hakoshen needs me.
I'm the enemy he requires to define him.
Soon or later, he'll bring me back to life again for another epic encounter of shouting about power levels and grimacing.

The scary thing is this is an actual sub-genre of scrolling shooter, the "bullet wall."
That's "Dr. BlkKnight" to all of you.

Actually, you can avoid the shots on the screen if you know where the hitbox is. In games like these the hitbox (the part that actually has to be hit to kill you) is smaller than the sprite.

Cave is known to make some of Japan's monstrously hard arcade games. I tried out True Last Boss for both Dodonpachi and Progear and I could not survive more than 5 seconds per life. What's even scarier is that some people actually managed to beat some of them without getting hit.
TLB for Mushihimesama. You're going to love 1:23.
TLB for DDP Daioujou. Real stuff begins at 1:50.
TLB for DDP Campaign Version, an updated version of original DDP which is needless to say, a lot harder.
TLB for Progear No Arashi. 4:04 is simply rage.
And lastly, TLB for the latest game they released.

Well Dan, all I can say is that if it were me in that cockpit, the universe would be undoubtedly screwed.

damn, and i though ikaruga on hard was hard.
if a pilot were to last through the first stage, i'm guessing he would want to retire immediately.

hitbox
Yeah, I noticed that he was being hit over and over again without blowing up. Making it so that you need to hit an itsy bitsy speck on the ship in order to destroy him sounds just about as dumb as having him fight a giant trash talking supership that hemorrhages bullets at him in pretty patterns.
Those were my two cents.

Nuh uh, Marx from Kirby Super Star is >_>
Anyvay, I do believe I would be letting the thing do what it wants. Jesus, that thing's worse than a Death Star.
