I want to get this, but I really thought I'd like 2 and 3 more.  In my head, I can't help compare them to Megaman, but they're nothing alike.  I want the characters to move slower, I just want the whole game slower and more platformey than twitch shootey.

I don't really care, I think this and another game goes great horizins to give you something unique. I think I am down to at least ten or twenty games to get for the PCE, before I quit, and move on to the next frontier.

four of them consist of this game and that other game of a differnt title.

The first is all platforming. The second one looks more polished but yeah it's just not as much fun in my opinion. I like using the  sword a lot better. The third definitely looks the best and has some awesome music but it's not very challenging and is almost kind of glitchy.

#3 is pretty as all get out but man it's rather linear with a few boxes and things placed around. Fast paced though.

I'm in the love it camp. Sure, it has shitty hit detection, but it's playable after you learn its quirks. I don't find it that hard, other than maybe the last stage.

It's characteristic of Masaya games: somehow feels polished and kinda sloppy at the same time. I love their games, really I do.

Never played the first two, but my friend had #3 which I borrowed and loved.  Music, graphics and controls were great from what I can remember.  I also remember it being way too easy.  Of course, that was about 20 years ago.

Your memory is pretty accurate. #3 is the best in the series for sure. Only weakness is the easiness.

shubi 3 > shubi 2 > shubi 1

and yeah, shubi 3 can be a first run clearer with ease.
also i don't like some frowsy programmings here and there.

but all around it's an impressive game, especially for a simple cd-rom.

I actually think the second looks the best.  Bigger sprites don't always make a game prettier.

This thread is helping me actually care (a bit) about the Shubibinman series. I never played all three at the same time, so I have a very disjointed view of them. I've spent the most time with Shubi 3, which I considered far too easy, but with so much potential to be 100% ROCK-N-ROLL. If only Masaya had made the default difficulty higher and fixed a few things. GODDAMN.

I definitely want to play the first two Shoobee's now and compare them.
