Nice job. But I see all your scores are in ED (Edit). Try 1CCing it on Arcade difficulty and defaults (AC).
i think this is because i've changed the language on the options to english and put secret ships on (is it possible to use the secret code in saturn version???), as i use Gain.
if you haven't seen the dvd, basically gain has probably the best ability to milk points from the pink birds at the start of stage 2. usually by this point i will have suicided once, have score of just under 2 mill, and medals up to 10,000 before the boss. on the dvd, wiz suicides 3-4 times, and has his score up in the 3 mill
)
i have to admit, i find it impossible with any other ship now, i'm just too used to using Gain to change. the only thing i would say is a bit of a negative, is that it's very fast, and a bit twitchy. you can often have a medal breeze past you when the rank is quite high, just down to how fast it can shift across the screen.
also, i use an official virtua stick (similar to the DC stick). here's a pic of the remakes on ps2:

(the saturn one looks much more retro, though! now that's a genuine weapon of mass destruction!)
seriously. buy the dvd.
