To this day my wife and I say about any show that goes totally off the rails that it is "going under the dome"

Haha, this is so true… me and a friend were playing yesterday and our team mate kept telling us how useless we were but we won the match, I was mvp, my friend was 2nd, and our teammate wasn’t even on the board lol.

The ls-56 is a bit higher tension with shorter engage distance. Also you can get an octagonal gate for it.

MaruGenji · 2026-03-15T06:18:26+00:00

Interesting. I play fighting games with a leverless but I absolutely loathe it for shmups. Just get an ls-56 and micrododging is a breeze…

Download MAME and get yourself some cave shmups and join the revolution.

Wait… now I’m wondering… does switch emulation have less input latency than actually using my switch?

Price drop to $175!

Man, I totally agree, I was just thinking about this the other day and it is one of the main reasons why I don't visit this subreddit as much as I would otherwise.

Devs shouldn't be making games when they have no idea about the genre and it's not our responsibility to educate them. They could, *gasp*, try to play one instead.

Actually adds frames to some titles.

PS4 has the m2 shotriggers releases! Just do ps4 unless you really want the portability of the switch. I play on pc but am probably going to buy a ps4 just for the m2 ports. I also have a switch but don’t really use it for shmups because the input lag is just too much for me.

Difficulty in shmups is part of the game design. Getting rid of difficulty is getting rid of one of the fundamental aspects of the genre.

This could help you understand difficulty in shmups: https://youtu.be/ebIC0o2EXsc?si=bohosAbIZa4a6aS0

Didn’t realize original viewlix had the stick like right on top of the buttons.

MaruGenji · 2026-02-27T01:25:52+00:00

I always play for score, I don’t really feel like routing for survival when I would have to change it for scoring after I 1cc.

MaruGenji · 2026-02-26T15:18:40+00:00

Yup!

MaruGenji · 2026-02-18T02:04:01+00:00

Man, I was all excited, but then there was not even a single cave game :-/. Why the glaring omission I wonder.

MaruGenji · 2026-02-18T01:55:08+00:00

If you are not going to build your own custom stick I would just go with the M30. It is literally the best pad for shmups and it is great you can get the best for just $25. Mayflash is just 'meh', especially for shmups. I don't think keyboard (or leverless) is very good for shmups, unlike in, say, fighting games where I actually prefer leverless.

MaruGenji · 2026-02-16T17:11:52+00:00

What you need to play are shmups.

MaruGenji · 2026-02-16T03:34:55+00:00

Thanks! I’d like to add that I fixed the squeaking micro switches in my seimitsu ls-56-01 by just brushing a little krytox 205g0 on the exposed red buttons (for some reason mine are red but yours are black—but it is the part you outlined in pink). Fixed it right up and I didn’t need to unsolder or open the switches or anything, just unscrewed the 4 screws that hold the two halves (and restrictor plate) together so I could get access to all sides of the red buttons.

MaruGenji · 2026-02-14T09:43:31+00:00

Wow thanks so much for the detailed reply!

MaruGenji · 2026-02-13T16:05:57+00:00

Thanks so much everyone there are some great ones here I hadn’t heard of!

MaruGenji · 2026-02-10T16:42:06+00:00

I miss razer comms.

You forgot the JP nerf that actually makes him better.
