If memory serves the PS1 version doesn't have tate mode in any region's release. Someone correct me if I'm wrong on that...

I can confirm the PAL and NTSC-J releases do not.

Btw, the PS2 version is the best console version. I'd like to pick up the ST-V cart at some point, though I seriously doubt that it would be an improvement on the PS2 port.

The USA version of Gekioh: Shooting King was released weeks before it's JPN version counterpart thanks to Natsume USA. ^_~

Gekioh doesn't have tate either. The ST-V cart of Shienryu is the one to own/play since it is the original arcade version barnone. And it looks great on a low-res 15.7kHz monitor setup. ^_~

Well, the Saturn hardware is closer to the original, I'll grant that. However, the PS2 port is arcade perfect, afaict. PS2 component output + the ability to play on a PS3 = win.

Yes a native 240p game looks better upscaled to 480i.
Yes.
(I seriously doubt the ps2 version has a 480p mode.)

You have a point there. I'll only say that I've owned both ports, and on my set up the PS2 version was the better.

the PS2 looks like an emulation. you even have to feed it credits.

IIRC there is some sort of low-res display option for the PS2 version which gives a pretty nice-looking picture - the one real shortcoming it has is the lack of a high-score save. Oddly enough, despite the myriad releases the game has gotten, only the Saturn version lets you save scores.

OK, cool! 240p!
I stand corrected!

Would someone someday list all ps2 shmups with 240p and 480p modes?

I'm not sure if any PS2 shmups support 480P except Thunderforce VI.
