Title: Hello!
Post by: rjosal on 05/20/2015, 07:36 PM
I'm new here.  I'm mostly into arcade shmups, so I hang out mostly on Shmups and AO, but I do have a modest retro console collection.  Now it's high time for me to get involved with the best console for shmups, so here I am.  Hello!

Welcome, comrade :)

Tons of great shootemups, plus, you can try all the arcade ports and see if they hold up to the originals.

That's a great question.  I'm familiar with most of the arcade ports, but I don't really know where to start with the console exclusives.  Any tips?

Good point.  I actually don't have a Saturn yet.  Although most of the Saturn shmups seem to be arcade ports.  I have a 2600, model 1 genesis/cd/32x, Snes, n64, ps2, ps3, wii.  While I'm at it, on the arcade side, I have an MKII, 2x Rush the Rock, Egret II, Impress, Blast City, and a Darius restoration project.  If you need something arcade in the greater Seattle area, let me know.

Saturn and DC are musts imo for shooters, but you are right there aren't that many that are not arcade ports. Cheaper though than finding boards.

That's not to take away from how awesome the PCE is when it comes to shooters, though!
