Shmup Premonitions

Post by Bar81 »

I was wondering how many fellow shmuppers have had premonitions about shmups.

My latest example was a 'knowing' that a sealed copy of Rayxanber III was at VGI. I just knew. Lo and behold I roll down to the website and it's exactly as I saw.

Mostly though, it involves seeing exactly how I will beat a boss before I beat him.

I guess I'm not strong in the Shmup Force like you guys are because I have to learn from my mistakes and learn bullet patterns, enemy placement, etc.

I had that strong gut feeling about Mushihimesama being released for the PS2 and fantastically enough, a month and a half later it was announced. I also have that feeling about an Ibara release next year, so fingers crossed.
