Really not seeing the point of putting all these remasters on here, since, in essence, that actually means they're not exclusive. Lot of stuff missing and incorrect here, too (there's lots of exclusives on all 3 of these that aren't here,) but the whole idea of it is pretty self-defeating if you're including remasters.

Caladrius was on Xbox 360 and PS3
Darius Burst is also on PS Vita
Game Tengoku is on Saturn
Ghost Blade is also on Xbox One (and Dreamcast..)
Gunbird is on PS1
Gunbird 2 is on Dreamcast
Ketsui is on Xbox 360 and PS3
Senko no Ronde 2 is on Xbox 360 and PS3
Strikers 1945 is on PS1
Strikers 1945 II is on PS1
Zero Gunner 2 is on Dreamcast

Many of these are also on PC. Not sure if you're listing games that aren't available on other 8th-generation consoles or if you're listing games that aren't available on any other system.

If M2 repeats past actions, then Mahou Daisakusen and Ketsui will end up on Xbox when they come to NA.

Sisters Royale and RXN are Switch-exclusive, for now anyway.

No pc versions either?

I just really hate how people misuse this term thats why im asking. Saying that games that came out 20 years ago in arcades are console exclusives is laughably misleading.

This. It would be great also to have that list with all the shmups published in the current generation, a huge work filled of indie crap (Not all) but very useful for people with more than one console or deciding which to buy.

Obviously. Almost all shmups published nowadays are ports or compilations of 90-00s shmups, while new stuff is soul less copy of that games.
Even EXA-arcade are porting to arcades previously published games on PC or console. Nowadays exclusives are bad business for developer and publisher

Great! Who wants them? It should be fair to publish in every platform and let consumers buy the most convenient version
