Welcome to the Gradius Wiki
Here is the main talk page for the wikia. You have something general to say? Then feel free to post it here.
I think Otomedius should not be listed under Parodius series anymore. Actually Konami claims that it's neither Gradius nor Parodius - but the successor to both of them.
The game itself is quite diffrent in my opinion, being lot more 'serious' and having different gameplay - rather closer to Gradius than Parodius. It has some enemies from Parodius like penguins, but that is the only connection with Parodius for now.

Otomedius was always a questionable topic, at least to me, because I don't know that much about the game. I know it didn't have all of the ties to Parodius, but it does look a lot like Parodius and it definitely wasn't Gradius/Nemesis/Salamander. It doesn't help that it is currently the only game in the genre. I want to say that it's a silly, semi/silly, mass cameo game that is like Parodius but isn't. If Konami themselves claim that Otomedius isn't definitely connected to either of them, then it probably deserves it's own series genre. If anyone objects to this reasoning, then feel free to discuss. Otherwise, by the end of the week the topic will be added.

I think that there is enough people interested in the Wiki that I think we should create a YouTube group and get people to join up. Not only would it bring the members together but also increase the chances that others will view and possibly join. I would like to know other user's opinions on this idea.
