Notes:
An improved port of MSX Gradius 2, with
improved graphics and new music,
all made by a doujin group...

Previously I couldn't rip the pack because
it used the PCM8 driver (which sounds
terrible when trying to log a vgm with it),
so I was able to disable the driver
via a modification of AUTOEXEC.BAT by
just removing that line from the file.

Note: There is one song (specifically song 13)
that only appears in the version released the
previous year (Nemesis '94 Gradius 2).

Track names are sourced from
"Gradius Ultimate Collection" (LC-1949~56),
with some modifications.

This pack was made using XM6 Pro-68k &
MAME 0.244 VGM mod.
