10 good shmups on the SNES? Ehhhhhhhhhhhhh........ It might be better to call it the least worst.
Super Aleste, Pop'n Twinbee, Axelay, R-Type III, Parodius Da!, Gokujou Parodius, Oshaberi Parodius, Area 88, Macross, Super EDF. See, it wasn't that hard. :)
I also found the two Darius games on the system to be pretty good, especially Super Nova/Darius Force. They are definitely love it or hate it games, though.

It's the dud of the bunch, no doubt about it... Still I like it better than the most obvious competitors, Biometal and Phalanx.
Yeh good point :D

right just quickly scanned my SFC collection for an elusive tenth decent shooter and come up with Cotton 100%, Super R-Type, Cosmo Gang the Video, all are ok, not amazing but not crap. :D

bearing in mind this is if you can't include games like Contra 3, KiKi KaiKai or Assault Suits Valken which then would obviously zip straight into any sane persons top ten :lol:
