Just picked up a copy of gokujyou parodiusu. Anyone play the Parodiusu series before? What do you think of it?

My favorite shooter series! A must have for the Saturn!

I also had to grab this one for the Super Famicom as well! Great fun!
I played Parodius Da! on a PC Engine emulator and might get them for my Saturn if I can't find a reasonably priced PC Engine and copy of the game.
Moe shit that killed the genre.
GARBAGE play a real Gradius game you effeminate faggots.

He's not wrong though.
Is /stg/ gone forever?
>>2924506

My favorite shooter series as well. It's just insanely fun. Especially, when you have a friend play co-op with you.

>What do you think of it?
Overrated series that peaked with the SNES entry. Sexy Parodius sucked.

Sexy Parodius is one of the remaining Saturn games I really like but haven't bought yet. Prices are fucking insane nowadays.

But he is wrong. The garbage that killed the genre was Cave and Touhou faggotry. Now every shmup just throws intricate bullet patterns at you, without providing any way of dodging or blocking bullets. The few good shmups still around, that shower the level in bullet patterns, all provide a way of dodging or shielding yourself (a slowdown button, a shield, a sword that can cut down most bullets, obstacles you can hide behind, etc).

I still can't understand how it ever caught on, to be honest.

All bullet hell shmups have small hitboxes. Git gud.
