I've been playing a lot of that myself lately along with Galaga 88, good old school fun to be had, I'll make it a point to pick up Galaga NES in the future.

Hello new person! me new too! ish... ain't posted much. been lurking around for a while. Been playing shooters since i was a child in the 80's, was lucky enough to live in a seaside town and have ready access to the arcades in their heyday, something i am very, very grateful to have experienced. I'm certainly no pro, just playing for fun. This is an awesome place for the latest in shmuppage news! i love it!

I usual just do my best and my skills seem to flucsuate for example.
Great:Beating the first four bosses of gunbird2 on very hard with one credit with no bombs(Because I wasted them all earlier)
Bad:dying in first level of Galaga
God Awful:Getting shot by the first helicopter that appears in Raiden2

its only within the last couple of years i've been re-snagged by the shooting love, went on a trip to japan with a mate a couple of years back and for me seeing various cave games i was "what they still make these??? i used to love these games!?" they're a little overwhelming and complicated for someone weaned on 1942 and flying shark but they made me want to play again. I ended up spending a hefty amount of my holiday rummaging around various cades and shopping for saturn goodies. Finally got a dedicated vertical tv which is a nice thing to have, no more squishovision. Still a bit rubbish at the games tho, but hey! i enjoy myself!

P.S. I recommend trying games from Cave.[/quote] I,ve always wanted to try them but I,m having trouble getting mame to work on my PC and I don,t have the money to import games or get rare saturn disks,But I,d probally love them. I actually have a freind who has mame on his computer I was about to try Dodonpachi or ketsui but I had to leave his house. I,m definatly trying them in the future.

I doubt your pal has Ketsui on MAME, unless there was a recent 500-post thread titled "OMG Ketsui MAMEd and there was much creaming of the pants!!" that I missed, otherwise it's news to me!Dale wrote:I actually have a freind who has mame on his computer I was about to try Dodonpachi or ketsui but I had to leave his house
Anyway, welcome and enjoy your stay! Always good to see new members!
