How's this for an interesting shmup story :lol: After seeing this thread and the Power Strike high score thread I gave it a go... only to be pwned and finish with 1.5M or so.

Here I am , sorry for bringing back this old topic.

I have finished Aleste many times on MSX, which even has one extra stage.

Its COMPLETELY possible to finish the game after dying at ANY spot, I can asure you :)

And Weapon 2 is the way to go.

Great story JP. Now go play Aleste 2 on MSX :) Way better than either Power Strike game on the SMS :)

Shatterhand comes back, and resurrects a Compile thread. You should post around here more often, mate. :D

Seeing this thread is give me inspiration to give another go!

I am feel lots of Compile love right now. I just 1cc Zanac Neo this past weekend and the Blazing Lazers talk and this Power Strike thread is make me feel the urge to play :D

If you are going to emulate it, then just make it the proper way, get an MSX emulator and play Aleste instead :)
