Trivia

This song has different backgrounds, banners, jackets, or other related images. For more information, please see this page.
  • In GRADIUS -FULL SPEED-'s video, which consists of a playthrough of GRADIUS, the player gets a GAME OVER despite clearly having lives remaining on the life counter.
  • By scratching the turntable when there are no scratch notes, the player can hear sound effects from GRADIUS.
    • When you finish GRADIUS -FULL SPEED- in pop'n music, you can play various sound effects with all nine buttons for a few seconds before the WIN/LOSE animation begins.
  • GRADIUS -FULL SPEED- is a hidden song in pop'n music 11. To unlock it:
    • On any non-FINAL STAGE, enter the following code on the song selection screen: 4466373728. The GRADIUS coin insert sound will be heard if this is done correctly.
    • Then clear one of the following songs from "classic" KONAMI games: ぼくってウパ？, HOLiDAY, GOONIES"R"GOOD ENOUGH, or penguin.
    • GRADIUS -FULL SPEED- will be available to play on your next STAGE.
    • GRADIUS -FULL SPEED- is also one of the hidden song unlocks in pop'n music 11's POP'N TOURIST (ポップンツーリスト) event. It could be unlocked from May 19th, 2004 through June 30th, 2004 by reaching STAGE 25.
      • As of June 30th, 2004, it is unlocked for everyone to play.
  • When selected in pop'n music 11, the GRADIUS coin insert sound (the beginning of GRADIUS -FULL SPEED-) is played instead of the usual "Here we go!".
  • The 2P character of GRADIUS -FULL SPEED-, LORD BRITISH, was misspelled as LOAD BRITISH in pop'n music 11. This was corrected in pop'n music 12 いろは.
  • Despite both pop'n music 11 and beatmania IIDX 10th style being released nearly at the same time, the pre-Sunny Park BEMANI category of pop'n music counted GRADIUS -FULL SPEED- as a pop'n music song instead of a crossover from beatmania IIDX.
  • According to Mr.T in the pop'n music song comments for GRADIUS -FULL SPEED-, the most difficult part of the song for him was choosing the opening coin-up sound. He notes it took him an entire day to get a sound that sounded just right.
  • According to pop'n music 11 sound director wac's song comments for GRADIUS -FULL SPEED-, he wanted to include beatmania IIDX 10th style crossovers from dj TAKA and NAOKI in pop'n music 11, but noted that the near-simultaneous production cycles of beatmania IIDX 10th style and pop'n music 11 resulted in those potential crossovers being shelved. GRADIUS -FULL SPEED- ended up being the only 10th style crossover.
  • In Toy'sMarch2, GRADIUS -FULL SPEED- is titled グラディウスメドレー.
