The best shooters are on Atari 2600. Everybody knows this. :roll:

It took me a few weeks, but Gradius was the first shooter I played through on the PCE. Its just one of those type where its memorize-or-die. I still enjoyed it a lot.

Actually the Atari 2600 does have one of my favorite shooters, Space Jockey. Also has tons of other great classic shmups.

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

A huge LOL at you, for 1. not even playing them, and 2. not even stating your reasons why they're NOT good in your opinion.

but axelay is an excellent shmup in its own way. there can't be made a proper comparison between PCE and SFC shmups anyway. they're too different in style and each has its own strength! i also prefere GoT. actually i prefer GoT over almost all shmups out there in the galaxy! but a fact is, that the good SFC shmups repetoire is small, very small!
