Is this collection worth it just for Sapphire??...

I have seen some footage of Sapphire on YouTube, and while it looks like a very solid shmup, I'm questioning, since the other two games in the collection would require knowledge of Japanese to play, whether or not this is worth the money.

I also wonder if this shmup will ever make it to the Virtual Console.

aside from having absoluteley amazing graphics for its time ive always found sapphire to be a pretty sub-par shooter..

for $20 its an interesting enough piece of shooting history, the game is well worth a playthru or two based on its reputation alone id say :)
