Jikkyou Oshaberi Parodius

Jikkyō Oshaberi Parodius, also known as Chatty Parodius, is the fourth entry in Konami’s parody shooter series. Its gameplay is stylistically similar to the Gradius games, while its graphics and music embrace an intentionally absurd tone.

The game’s defining feature is its abundance of Japanese voice samples, delivered with the energetic style of a game show host. Unlike the series’ previous two titles, it was not created as an arcade game. It first appeared on the Super Famicom in 1995.
