Heard a lot of those replies as well. You'll be amazed at how much money you waste instead of saving it.

Say it straight: I could save pennies to buy a PCE/whatever but I don't because I prefer the egg today. It's just too easy to steal a rom and voilà :D Nobody sees, nobody cares.

I guess you're right, haha. Well, I do enjoy owning actual copies of games that I enjoy playing. I will purchase the ones I enjoy eventually. I just purchased Triggerheart Exelica on the XBL Arcade, after downloading the DC ISO of it.

I just started playing again shmups seriously, it were my favourite games back in the day, found the forums, registered and posted! Im from Portugal, west coast of europe! :D
Why, because A.P.B. its one of the best shmups on mame, hands down. Its easy to play, hard to master, you can play it in a coffee break, overall great fun!

Welcome.

As others have said, do a bit of a search. There are a ton of topics that cover great games. Best of luck in your pursuit of all things good in the shmup world.
