Recently I’ve been looking into expanding the number of shmups in my library.
Which games should I prioritise getting? Any that I should avoid?
https://www.nintendolife.com/guides/best-nintendo-switch-shmups has a 5 pages full of recommendations. Scroll down the list just before the comments, to see the list of pages you can open.
Sorry, but this is not what I need. I’ve seen this list and many similar to it. Just want a few names of games. Nintendo Life is a good resource, though.
Okay, but you can just pick a few games that look interesting there. It’s not different than random people recommending random stuff here.
- SEGA AGES Thunder Force IV
- Tengai
- Samurai Aces
- ESP Ra. De. Psi
- Mushihimesama
- Espgaluda II
- Deathsmiles I & II
- DoDonPachi Resurrection
- Dodonpachi DaiOuJou Blissful Death Re:Incarnation
These are pretty good, either from my personal experience or from reading lot of recommendations through forums and friends. The best Shmups on the Switch are mostly ports of existing older games. I’m not sure if you play on another platform too, I just read you have a Switch. I played on emulators on my PC and on Steam, there are a few more games I am not sure if they exist on Switch.
Warning Forever, but not sure if you can play that on switch
Doesn’t appear that it is… But I’ll look it up anyway.
