Maybe if you like weird shoot-em-ups.

>>2928402
White plok is best plok

>>2928408
It was fun, but sure as hell not the best.

Nintendo has never made a decent shoot-em-up.

>>2928458

Come to think of it, Sega doesn't have any either outside of Fantasy Zone, do they?

Sega has Space Harrier and After Burner, and Nintendo has Star Fox, but none of those are traditional 2D shmups.

It's weird they never attempted a full fledged shmup considering they're fairly easy to make.

I'm not sure anyone in this thread knows what a mascot is.....

>>2928471
Scramble Spirits, nigga.

>>2928471
Nintendo made Solar Striker for the Gameboy. But it's 1990 Gameboy game. It's not much to talk about. Not bad, but nothing to write home about either.

>>2928559

I thought maybe there would be some lesser known ones, but they didn't went all out with an amazing one I guess. Like a Nintendo or Sega shmup on par with R-Type or Gradius.

Anyway thanks for those heads up, didn't know those games.

>>2928458
The shmup sections in super Mario land were pretty fun, but that's hardly a proper shooter

>>2928576
If it was fun that's all that matters. How would you define a good game?
A good game is something you had fun with cuz that is the idea purpose of games.
It doesn't make a difference if someone thinks it was bad if you enjoyed it.

>>2928596
Fuck off you communist.

>>2928616

Communists are dictators, they would tell you which games are good and which ones are bad and you'd have to accept it.

That post is the opposite of communism.

>>2928639
Communists think everyone is equal with equal merit.

>>2928458
Metroid

>>2928659

Not really, grab some books.
Although you'd need to work on your reading comprehension first because that's not what >>2928596 was saying.

>>2928616
It would be more communist to tell people what games are good or bad and only live by that like most of this board does. Or have you just came out of your fallout shelter and still think the red menace is real?

>>2928616
Communists would be pretty opposed to retro gaming. Well, retro collecting, anyway. No one should have any more disposable income than anyone else to spend on entertainment.

Will you shut the fuck up? It was one level in the middle of a game, he didn't say good, he said proper, as in the entire game is a shoot em up.

Will you stop posting outdated memes?

I seriously have no idea why this didn't get a US release, even the voice dialogue is all in English.

Because Sega Saturn.

And I'll bet you think you're so much better than everyone else, right?

Pick one.

>>2928747
I actually asked a question and made a statement.
Never presented reason to argue. So what are yoy arguing about here? What makes you so angry? Do it hurt for me to be right or something and bothered you that you can't define a good game by what everyone on a website says?

>>2928680
This coming from someone that never studied it. Just shut up now young person .

>>2929426
What? I don't think the pickford bros were bad.

>>2929426
By the way tradewest is the publisher.

>>2929026
I just tried to search for this game, and literally nothing
