MiSTer FPGA - Salamander [Expert 1cc] / PC Engine (TurboGrafx-16)
11Single loop 1cc on Expert difficulty, recorded a couple days after getting my prior normal 1cc. (link to that below) Streamed this one live while recording locally. Loop 2 is much closer to arcade on expert, with the walls closing fully on St1! Will try for 2nd loop in the future. Sharper interpolation this time also- was a bit too soft in the previous run.

Like my previous Gradius Gaiden video, I got the urge to play this one from ShmupJunkie's recent Konami Shooters overview video- check it out here: https://youtu.be/WrlQQWNG1Hk
MiSTer's PC Engine core was transformed into the most accurate way to play this console besides original hardware, largely in part thanks to efforts by srg320. He also created our SNES, Sega CD and Sega 32x cores, and is currently working on a Sega Saturn core for MiSTer.
