		http://www.fuchu.or.jp/~kazuhiro/games/jlistSST.ht... There's a pretty definative list, i'd say it's atleast 75% complete. It's seperated by genre, the third genre is Shooting. Just look for BATSUGAN in english letters.

		*Hopes Arakon to be on vacation* why? have not asked for anything asked if anybody had them! im not asking fot "is*s" im asking for info

		Actually I disagree and the PC Engine is the best system for shooters. A couple of those that you listed really aren't shooters lalthough it kidn fo depends on how you define a shooter. D-Xhird, Golden Axe the Duel, and Hyper Reverthion are 1 on fighter. King of the Spirit 1 and 2, andWangan Dead Heat are more racer than shooter. If you include those ones than you should also include titles like Night Strikers. Willy Wombat is more of a 3d platformer and Shinobi Legends is a 2d platformer. I think Finalist is more of a adventure or RPG but I don't have that one Wing arms is more of a 3d game and I really don't classify if with the other kind of 2d shooters. If you include stuff like After Burner and Space Harrier as shooters than you could probably include that one as well What kind of info are you looking for for the ones with ? marks? I have all of those titles except for Back Gunner and Finalist. Also Blazing Heroes is a stretegy/RPG not a shooter. G Vector is also kind of questionable as well. Also Gunbird 2 was on the Dreamcast not the Saturn. The Saturn only had the original Gunbird. Any heres a pretty complete list of shooters for both the Saturn and PSX. I have all of the Saturn ones and I think I have all PSX ones except about 5 or 6 and most of those I'm getting soon.

		I don't know. But I wouldn't risk it if I was you!

		azazel your right about the pc engine cracking machine for shmups for what the little devil is but honestly cannot compete with whats there for the saturn btw:nice list im an absolute shmup nut and id like to get whats available just so i have a nice collection looking forward to ikaruga on dreamcast aka raidant silvergun 2 looks well nice the others i listed iwas wanting more info on them as carnt seem to find any or im not looking in the right place i know that they arent shumps

		Well Blastwind is a vertical shooter made by Technosoft. Their only one if I remeber right. It's pretty easy game compared to most other Saturn shooters. You just have a regular weapon, a homing weapons and bombs. It's one nice feature is that on each stage you can flip a switch you can take a slighty different route so it has a little added replay value to it. Also it's one of the cheaper titles to get if you can get it outside of Ebay. I got mine for about $15.00 Gekiridian is also pretty cheap to get. I've never seen it for more than $30.00 and sometimes goes as cheap as $15.00. It's a so so vertical shooter by Taito if I remember right. If you want you can try it out on Raine to see if for yourself. It's kind of time traveling game where each stage takes place in a different time peroid kind of like Time Pilot if you remember that title. It's one of the poorer titles. Planet Joker is pure crap. Only get if you have to have every saturn shooter that there is. It's a vertical shooter by Naxat. Skull Fang is another one of the poorer titles for the system. It's kind of another world war vertical shooter. Your better off in finding Sonic Wings Special Image Fight and X Multiply contain 2 Irem shooters 1 vertical and one horizontal. X Multiply is kind of R-Typeish shooter where you have 2 tentacles. Image Fight is a vertical shooter. You can try out a rom for for the Nes or PC Engine of Image Fight. I don't think X Multiply made it out ot any of systems besides the PSX version of the same name. Both games are extremely hard. I think this is probably the hardest of the group of ones you asked for to get. If their their's anything else you need to know feel free to ask?

		what about stellar assault ss? anyone played that?

		Azazel	Jul 4, 2002
		It's more of a 3d shooter. It's supposed ti be only average at best but I don't have so I can't comment too much.

		daffy duck	Jul 4, 2002
		thanx azazel for sheding some light on those games i already have image fight/x-multiply for psx just fancy having it for sat though as for others i found a couple sonic wings was one of them and gun frontier but heres some more if u have any info Twinkle Star Sprites got this on mame Twinbee Yahoo Dlx i know what its about Stellar Assault Sky Target Skull Fang Sengoku Blade i know what its about Salamander Deluxe Pack Plus know this too but need Planet Joker Image Fight XMultiply i know about this Hyper Reverthion Gundam Z Houhen Gundam Z Gekirindan i know about this Chatting Parodius Blast Wind and this

		Azazel	Jul 5, 2002
		Well I don't know much about Stellar Assualt other than it's some kind of overpriced 3d shooter. Hyper Reverthion is a 3d fighter a little like Virtual On but really bad. It made by Technosoft. It also plays just like Steeldom if you have that title. The Saturn version of Twinkle Star Sprites is pretty samiliar to the MAME and Neo Geo versions. I think the Saturn version has a couple of added characters in it from what I remember. It also comes with some kind of bonus cd as well. I think Sky Target is more of a 3d shooter from what I remember but I haven't played it in a long time. Chatting Parodius is the second or third Parodius game in the series if I remember right. It features speech that can be heard during the game hence the name Chatting Parodius. It also supports the biggest cast of characters as you have about 30 different characters to chose from. Their also are bonus stages you can play if you fulfill certain criteria during the normal stages. Skull Fang is kind of a somewhat poor world war shooter. The Z Gundams I don't remember very well anymore and I'm without a system at the moment so I can't play them and say more about them.

		Yes, I think skull fang sucks as well- but i can see how some may like it. I really want to get Blastwind, but I havent seen it ANYWHERE!

		Azazel	Jul 16, 2002
		Blast Wind used to be pretty common a few years backs. It doesn't show up very often anymore. At least it doesn't fetch as much as Hyper Duel does.

		i only have a couple saturn shmups, but my fav are esp ra.de. and guwange by atlus/cave for the arcade. btw, did u guys know that atlus and capcom teamed up for a horizontal shooter in japan? i just found this out yesterday, but i forgot what it was called. edit: how many ppl play there shmups on tate mode, its the only way to play
