Cactus 2.0!
This article has just been started and needs the article basics added.
Help us out and add them.
Hmmm...
To do:
  • The rest of the announcer clips need to be put here.
  • There has definitely got to be some other content in this.

The first Gradius game to make it's leap into the (sorta) third dimensionǃ And with it comes more pain than Gradius IIIǃ

Unused Sounds

The announcer has several unused voice clips for explaining how powerups work, all of them in factǃ It would have most likely of been used in the Attract Screen like Gradius Gaiden, but wasn't.

Sound File Transcript
Speed up, there are five different levels. The max level speed is faster than the bullets.
Missile, crawls on the ground and destroys enemies.
Spread Bomb, wide-range blast will destroy more enemies.
Photon Torpedo, penetration power can break through anything.
2-Way, threaten enemies above and below.
Vertical Mine, bomb explodes vertically when enemies hit it.
Flying Torpedo, soars through the sky and penetrates enemies.
Double, normal bullets that also shoot upward.
Tail Gun, normal bullets that also shoot backward.
Laser, destroys all enemies with the strongest power of penetration.
Ripple Laser, widespread laser destroys enemies in a wide range.
Armor Piercing, high speed bullets.
Twin Laser, reflects and destroys enemies.
Option, an additional ship.
Multiple, an additional ship.
Shield, the Shield guards infront of you!
Force Field, a barrier that protects you all around!

Some of these audio samples do not correlate with their appropriate function. There is also an additional voice clip for Multiples, which was what the Options was called in Gradius III which could hint that Gradius IV could have gotten an English release like Vulcan Venture.
