Of course, with the yen/quarter/pence muncher aspect, they both were designed to eat them by the handful if playing them casually/for the first time/learning the ropes of what makes them tick. Tried them both out for the first time and was stoked at the fanasty elements used in SD.

It's, also, quite simple to change from JPN or International region if so desired with the SD PCB (as they're both available/present on the PCB anyways).īack in January of 2000, an indoor go-kart track business based out of Stockton, CA, had both Psikyo's Strikers 1945 II & Sol Divide PCBs up & running on a pair of Dynamo upright cabs.

So its's nice to be able to save your SD arcade mode's scores for posterity as it should be (the SD's PCB version doesn't save scores whatsoever if powered down for the night - it's quite an awesome experience to be able to play the original SD PCB as it was meant to be whether it's of the JPN or International flavored variety indeed). The other two games on the disc are both early action/puzzle games - Son Son and Pirate Ship Higemaru.Ĭapcom Generation Volume 4 has Commando, Commando II (aka MERCS) and Gun.Smoke (all arcade perfect).I like the original JPN PSX version of Sol Divide that was released by Psikyo themselves as it has memory card saving functionality (whereas with the USA PSX release of the same name from XSGames, that particular functionality was removed entirely). Space Harrier (on US Sega Ages CD or Japanese stand-alone disk)Ĭapcom Generation Volume 3 not only has Vulgus, but also Exed Exes, both of which are early Capcom overhead shmups along the lines of 1942, just with sci-fi themes. Sega Ages Memorial 2 (Star Jacker)****what is this? Konami Antiques MSX Collection (MSX ports of Time Pilot, Gradius 1 & 2) Jikkyou Osyaberi Parodius AKA Forever With Me Are the lists complete?

I have got the complete list at top, followed by a list of TRUE shooters (horizontal, vertical, and 3-D) that does NOT include ground-based shooters like Assault Suit Leynos 2, Metal Slug, etc. Hello! I have compiled a list of Sega Saturn shooters with A LOT of help from various websites.
