just bought Mushihimesama for Steam
I saw they released ESP Ra De for Switch, I hope they release it for Steam but I don't think we'll see any more PC ports. The port of Mushihimesama is very high quality though, too bad I don't like DoDonPachi Resurrection very much, would've bought Blissful Death in a heartbeat. Resurrection is truly DoDonPachi for a new generation.

A bit surprised to see one of my few posts from 9 years ago
My recent purchases have been -

Astroport Shmup Collection ( switch)
Esp Ra de Psi (switch)
Salamander (Famicom) - the transparent cart is lovely
Psyvariar (switch)
Battle Garegga ( Xbox one)

So far the 2 shottriggers games have taken most of my time, playing both just feels like a treat every time.

Just bit the bullet on Toaplan Shooting Battle 1 for PSone. Definitely the most expensive game I've bought in a long time, but it's been on my list for so long and I came upon a copy in great shape on the low-end of the price range.
