Raiden Fighters (Arcade) - No-Miss All (Slave, 40 millions)

Played on MAME 0.256
This is the third hidden ship in the game and the only one that never shows up in the player select screen, sort of an easter egg in my eyes like "hey what if you could play as the little guys that follow you and always get blown up?" except in this scenario the little guys turn out to be powerful as fuck lol. The way you play as Slave is going to a ship, hold any direction and press Start, A and B together (like if you go to Judge Spear, you could hold Left or Down then do the combo).
Slave's speed will be the one of whatever ship you originally highlighted so you can have whatever you want basically. Because of this, pretty much all the Slaves replay out there use either Chaser or Judge Spear since they are the fastest ships in the game.
Furthermore, Slave only has shot and can pick items in any order which makes death feel like it barely matters since you can get back on track pretty quickly, not that you will be dying much anyway because your shot covers like half the screen lol and does high damage if you are even remotely close to something. It also has a smaller hitbox, but I didn't feel like this made a huge difference.
This ship is obviously very very good and clearly outclasses the rest but personally I didn't find it very interesting to play, probably because of the overly simplistic yet OP weapon.
