Dreamcast Exclusive Vertical Shmups?

Post by Kyle »

Are there any Dreamcast exclusive vertical shmups? From what I can tell most of them made their way to the PS2 or XBLA, etc. I just wanted to double check that I wasn't overlooking any.

Thanks in advance.

Trigger Heart Excelica is on XBLA, but it lacks story mode and handful of DC extras, so the DC copy is more complete.

armada, if you'd want to count that lol

if you dont have a DC and like shmups go get one and a vga box right now. probably cost you like 50 total on ebay

and if youre too poor to buy the games, you can always download and burn every game ever made for the system for free with no modding if you wanna be a cheap asshole :shock:

Thanks for the replies guys. Do any of these tate? It looks like they're all vertical games that are horizontally oriented.

Under Defeat is a vertical game. Simple as hell to tate too, just press the R trigger.

Technically all of them are Naomi arcade titles- except Giga Wing, which is CPS2.

They're all ports, but they're all console exclusives which is what I think OP was asking for...

Mars Matrix is CPS2, too.

Sadly the game itself is pretty rubbish tho.
