This Darius feature originally appeared in the April 1987 edition of BEEP! magazine. While I usually stick to “pure” interviews for shmuplations, the content of this one merited translating the whole thing. The focuse is on the hardware, and while not containing any particular revelations or secrets, it does a nice job of showing how Darius was made and some of the alternate ideas Taito considered for its new “3-screen” hardware.
