Quick playthrough of the 1st level of Raiden IV, designed for the Taito Type X arcade system, but now playable at home thanks to some inventive hackers. This game is quite temperamental to run and will often just hang when you try to launch it. There is a work around by add the command 'Pause' to the game's .bat file, but I find this a bit hit-and-miss also. The game is designed for an upright monitor, so when it launches it's horizontal - so I was playing this with my head craned to the right to see it properly (I've rotated the video after capturing it). Also, the game will crash at the end of the first stage unless you have a pen drive in place and assign it the drive name 'D:', something I've not done, so I haven't ever gotten any further than the end of this stage...
