Battle Garegga

Battle Garegga[a] is a vertically scrolling shoot'em up arcade game developed by Raizing and published by Eighting in 1996.

In addition to the player's main shot, picking up green Option power-ups will add up to four support pods to the craft.

Mathew Wayne, a resident of a small country town, was a mechanical genius whose aptitude and skills were passed down to his sons, Brian and Jason.

Eventually, the Federation approached the brothers with an extremely profitable contract to help produce military vehicles for it.

[7] The Sega Saturn version has become a rare game, and in 2014 it was listed as costing £100 in the United Kingdom.

[4] The Saturn version is also the final game on the system,[citation needed] and by extension any Sega console, to be published in any capacity by Electronic Arts.

[citation needed] In December 2016 M2 released a new version of the game called Battle Garegga Rev.2016 to PlayStation 4 as part of their M2 Shot Triggers publishing label.

[16] Reviewing the PS4 version, Push Square said: "It may be an acquired taste these days – to be fair, the same could be said of the original back in 1996 – but Battle Garegga remains a defining release in the shmup canon, and this is without a shadow of a doubt the best way to experience it.
