Gradius Galaxies Gradius Generation (Japan), also known as Gradius Galaxies (North America) and Gradius Advance (Europe), is a horizontally-scrolling shooter handheld video game published by Konami in 2001. The game, released for the Game Boy Advance, is the only Gradius title to be available for the system. Story-wise; the game is set between Gradius III and Gradius Gaiden. Bacterion was developing a powerful weapon to use against planet Gradius; but the evil entity was destoyed before finishing it. A few years later it crashes on a planet and it gradually starts changing it; appearently into a mechanical fortress. Before it can become a full threat; planet Gradius sends the Vic Viper to eradicate it; which in the game's ending destroys the entire deformed planet. (Taken from the game's manual.)
