The few dabblings with plot that the games have are few and far between, essentially there's a threadbare plot arc spanning Gradius 1 -> Gradius ReBirth -> Nemesis 2 (MSX) -> Salamander (MSX) -> Nemesis 3 (MSX) -> Gradius V. There's no cutscenes or anything in Gradius 1, but later games refer back to it. The rest could just be fuckin' anywhere, I dunno. The wiki also says that Salamander 2 comes after IV and before Gaiden. Alternative answer: Who cares? Shoot bad guys.

Gradius 1 in the arcades was called Nemesis internationally. Gradius 2 was called Vulcan Venture in international arcades, and none of the ports made it out of Japan at the time. While Gradius 1 on the MSX is a straight arcade port, Gradius 2 MSX, also known as Nemesis 2, is a completely different game from the arcade/Famicom/PC engine (that's Turbografx to you) Gradius 2. Gradius 2 MSX was given an enhanced port on the Sharp X68000 as Nemesis '90 Kai. It's also not the same game as Nemesis 2 on the Game Boy, which is a sequel to Nemesis on the Game Boy, which was called Nemesis in Japan cause they decided they liked the name, and other than kind of the first stage, is not a port of Gradius 1. Nemesis and Nemesis 2 GB were ported to the Konami GB Collection in Volumes 3 and 4 respectively, where they were renamed Gradius and Gradius 2 (with subtitle "The Return of the Hero" in Europe). See, it's nice and simple after all.

Serperoth posted:Isn't there a card that's the Vic Viper? Two. And one for each playable ship from Gaiden, a couple from Xexex, one from Thunder Cross and a bunch of enemies from various games.

No, DOS was hard to implement scrolling in. That was id's major triumph with... was it Commander Keen? Smooth scrolling levels.

The MSX was a PC.
