Vertical Force is a cool, clever little game. It's like the spiritual successor to Blade Eagle 3D on Sega Master System.

Adding PCE console specific layer on top of that, makes for an interesting challenge (no, not a reference to Ys II).

I didn't even know there was a space invaders for VB...  I say Vertical Force.  It's a Hudson shooter with a turbob feel to it.

Space Invaders is a very very expensive Japan only release.

Red Alarm plays more like Descent then anything else.

Rolf, I remember playing red alarm like for hours in the late 90s. Lying on my bed, the VB on the cushion, my head on top. I think my eyes didn't fully recover till today.
