Nemesis or also Nemesis - The Final Challenge is the European title of a space shooter scrolling from left to right. In North America, the game was released under the name Gradius. It was originally only published as an arcade game in 1985 and quickly became an absolute arcade hall hit. Then it was ported to a great number of other systems. Nemesis does next to R-Type and Galaga probably count to the most well-known shoot'em-ups of the 1980s. Developer of the game and manufacturer of the arcade machine was the company Konami, which also made the conversion for the C64 themselve. There are extra weapons to collect and blue energy points that destroy all enemies on the screen when touched. Also the speed of the own spaceship can be raised by collectable upgrades. This is the disc version.
