Play R-Type DX (Japan) Online
Dodge waves of alien bullets with your little Force Pod that keeps getting stuck—R-Type I and II squeezed onto a Game Boy Color, still punishingly hard but weirdly rewarding when you finally survive a level.
Game Overview
R-Type DX on the Game Boy Color is basically the arcade classic shrunk down into something you can play on the bus—but don’t let the tiny screen fool you. You’re still dodging those insane bullet patterns and wrestling with the Force Pod (that weird little orb thing that sometimes saves your life and other times gets stuck on scenery). The colors actually add something here—those creepy organic-mechanical levels pop way more than they did in black and white.
It’s got both R-Type I and II crammed in, which is great until you realize how brutally hard these games are. Like, "throw your GBC across the room" hard. But that’s the point, right? There’s something weirdly satisfying about finally nailing a stage after a dozen tries. If you’ve got nostalgia for pixel-perfect dodging or just want to suffer in portable form, this is your jam.
