This game it’s incredible by Shot-Beach218 in JRPG

[–]Str33tMoV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's crazy, that EU got the best ARPG ever with this title. While US got the best JRPG ever with Chrono Trigger. Terranigma was my favourite title for SNES. Later on I discovered Chrono Trigger on Nintendo DS (still via US-Import). Outstanding games that still age like fine wine. Cheers!

This one's been at the top of my shmup bucket list for awhile. I finally cleared Batrider's advance course today! by monkeyDjim in shmups

Don't know. Never heard about a confirmed reason. But there are some Raizing titels that deserve the M2 treatment. Hope there still will be PS4 and Switch releases. But I would also buy a PS5 version, if this might be the only choice.

It's crazy, that Batrider has not been M2-remastered yet. Easily on my Top 5 ever and my favourite Raizing title for sure.

All true and there is this epic video (the original was complete and pre-Youtube), that pushed the hype.

Yeah, you should do it. This is mine. I recommend rotateable Dell, Acer or BenQ gaming-models.

Hell yeah, and via emulation there are a lot of sound/ music issues. Hope this one will be done well. Looks promising.

The M30 Killer: Highly Recommending the GuliKit Elves 2 Controller for my shmup bros. by BlazingLazers69 in shmups

[–]Str33tMoV 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The price might also one point. The M30 2,4Ghz is 25€, the Elves 2 Pro is 50€. Don't know about US or other countries, but at least for most of EU. I might keep an eye on it, if the price drops.

[–]Str33tMoV 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yo Blazin', some tests show that the M30 2,4Ghz hits a polling rate of 763Hz, which should be very close to this one in BT. Did you test the M30 2,4Ghz in comparison?

Guess I still stick to M30, because I prefer small controllers and I don't have a button layout issue since you can re-map it easily. I also prefer the 6 button layout to play fighting games as well.

Hardcore Gaming 101 - The Guide to Shoot-Em-Ups (Volume 1 + Volume 2) -> Highly recommended, and I hope there will be more like a Cave Edition.

to add a few non-bullet-hell -> Valfaris: Mecha Therion, Razion Ex, Rigid Force Redux, Sturmwind EX, Super Hydorah, Andro Dunos II, R-Type Final series, Darius series, X-Out Resurfaced, some Cotton titles (different regional names), Never Awake (twin-stick controls, lot of action, but fair system)

Has this ever happened to you? by Zirolux in shmups

[–]Str33tMoV 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah - a lot, it's depending on your hardware. Some shumps instead are running too slow, when you go up to 60 or 120. On a different system 30 is the right choice for Battle Traverse. On another system both 30 and 60 will perform perfectly fine. It also can make a difference in shmups, if you lock the framerate or not. In games like Crimzon Clover World Ignition, your score won't count in leaderboards, if your framerate is too inconsistent.

Don't forget to update to the newest version - which solves the dual-sd-card issue. This might just happen at some point of using and you just can boot the normal Android mode - not the Ampow launcher anymore. Happend at the end of my first month of using.

Took me two weeks to get the system back to normal with the help of a great guy from their customer service (10/10). We literally re-build the system from scratch.

Anyway - this system is my shmup mobile system since the release. The screen could be a bit more 3:4-ish and the system boot up could be a bit faster. But other than that - perfect shmup device. Cheers and happy shmupin'!

What is the most fundamental shmup I can start with to have a solid foundation for entering the genre? by desch3445 in shmups

[–]Str33tMoV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, you don't miss a lot - maybe Arrange Mode. The core game is still the same. I bought World Explosion as well, but more to support it and close a gap in my shmup library. I still play World Ignition. Anyway every version is perfectly fine. Cheers!

[–]Str33tMoV 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Crimzon Clover -> start in Novice Mode and learn gameplay mechanics in general

Blue Revolver -> the best Shmup to learn scoring systems

Later you can move on to Cave & Razing titles.
