This is a great shooter for the switch. 1. Great story and the characters are well played in it. 2. Great soundtrack for the game . 3. Awesome gameplay and intense gameplay too but worth the purchase.

If you like space shooters you know of Raiden. Part 5 is a solid addition to the Raiden saga. Great graphics & gameplay. As usual it's a short playthrough but the norm for this genre.

I mainly got this just because it will only be printed once... But when I got into playing it, it really pulled me in for more goes at it... Usually I have to unbox my old gear to play verticle shooters, but this one stands up with some of the all time best...

Classic shooter with some good in box goodies.
Great little shooter, a touch easy at times but worth the time to chill out and enjoy.
Couch co-op is always a plus.

Fast paced adrenaline pumping shooter. If you were into shooters back in the day, this modern take on the genre is fun especially with two players!

Not only do you get an amazing game with beautiful visuals & a killer soundtrack, you also get the soundtrack on a mini disc & a nice full-color manual.

Really cool flying shoot em up with tons of great gameplay. This is a single run game that will be gone once all of the current copies sell out. Must buy!!

Not a good Shmup

Raiden is one of the original Shmups I’ve played from back in the day, but Raiden V is a mess. The story is completely unnecessary and is just in the way with all the dialogue going on while you’re trying to play the game. The difficulty is very high compared to most Shmups I’ve played. I admit, I’m not very good at this game, but I believe very few are. Bullet hell is one thing, but the bullets in this game are extremely fast and hard to react to. I didn’t have much fun playing through this game.

Just like I remember, easy to pick up, but hard to master! (There's a reason why shooters like Raiden V have the moniker "bullet hell.")
The mini-CD and the art book are nice touches.

A more friendly entry into the classic Raiden series, a life bar makes things less brutal for novice players, and the story mode will keep more players interested in continuing to progress.
