Previous thread

DFK is a lot more fun than it seemed at first. Arrange A is fantastic.

...

Dead thread dead genre

I can fix this

keyboard is better than stick

Tsk tsk, you gotta work up to that. Start by saying that both Cave and Ikaruga are gay.

>Start by saying that both Cave and Ikaruga are gay
what if they have sex?

yuri is still gay

this thing has massive fucking hitbox while in this phase

these arguments are pointless because the proof is the pudding bros

scores done on stick >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> scores done on anything else

What is more important: Having a stick, or having a nice tate setup?

Execution is top priority.

stick > display

So keyboard then?

If you're a madman or poor like me.

What is a good stick for double play? Double playing shmups is the coolest shit.

Dead thread, dead genre, dead OP

or prometheus

...

CUTE!

Reco sure is tiny today!

NO
P A N T I E S

...

...

Reminds me of Samidare

very sneaky to make your ship look like a mouse curser

...

>tfw getting too old for shmups

That just means you're ready to start dadposting on the farm.

How can I dadpost if I never made a single post there and didn't even play much?

what the fuck is dadposting

...

Only as a matter of circumstance not preference you dumb fuck, arcade machines dont give you an option for controls do they? and as soon as you leave the arcade pads and keyboards rule equally to stick amongst the home crowd. Good luck beating gus's 1.01 ultra wr with your shitty MUH AUTHENTICITY stick you fucking pleb.

MOOOOM

It really depends on the game, but sticks are usually better for arcade games than anything else, because you can do much better rapid movement changes with them. Try for example doing a wiggle motion on a pad and then on a stick.

>do much better rapid movement changes with them.
nah.

Porku uuuup~

big bumps

...

>nah.
Try doing this with a pad and you will see what I mean: youtu.be/8YBc82eViEg?t=1m40s

Actually meant to start at 1:40

Jus bought a 360 and sdj there's no limit to my bad decision making

Gotta get the world record to justify your spending now user.
Get to it.

Pad is fine for any non meme playthroughs tho

Sure, if you just wanna play kusoge playthroughs, a pad is totally fine.

Buy a copy of RSG HD for me

>Only as a matter of circumstance not preference you dumb fuck
keep telling yourself that

Pick a mode/ship combo that nobody plays
Get WR
Be super player

I did the same thing a few days ago, user, except not sdj but rsg. I am happy with my decision

I will have raiden fighters aces on monday

...

...

...

It's so such a shame they didn't port this to steam. I would love to play it, but I don't have the money to buy a 360 for a single game.

I waited for as long as I felt comfortable waiting for a Steam release. When they announced that 360's were discontinued, that's when I started seriously considering getting one again

Does someone wanna put me on the spreadsheet?

Why not put yourself on the spreadsheet?

should we start a /shmupg/ wiki

vsrecommendedgames...Shmups_101 is horribly out of date

>no Cho Ren Sha
Is the list arcade only or something.

no meme games allowed

Say that again, I dare you.

>CRS68k is a meme game
Maybe if you're terrible

Welp, DOJBL is kicking my ass again. Dammit.

Try something easier, like Ikaruga or Crimzon Clover World Ignition.

>tfw DOJ has kicked my ass for 7 months straight
I'm so close to the 2-ALL but it's just out of reach.

>2-ALL
Man I couldn't even get out of 1-3 today, get outta here.

You'll know my pain someday, don't worry.

Maybe. I'm still trying to decide if I like DOJ enough to 2-all. Hell, I'm still deciding if I like any game enough to 2-all.

Don't play looping games. Play something with proper pacing! Like yes, CC:WI

looping games are cancer

>Cave didn't figure out that loops were retarded until their final game
good job fellas, no wonder why you're dead

The loop in Mushihimesama is pretty fun desu

Look, a shiny!

>still fishing week on HEY

>docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1K0DesawgMQiFNMv2MZxxwdjzBudCIMMb3BkjQJaHjxI/edit?usp=sharing
>Kamui v1.12
Is there a difference between the versions or something?

Steel Rondo is so god damn fun, but I don't know if I should put time into it since it's impossible to compare scores :(

Bumpy bumps

dont die

Discuss.

Girls are icky
Also is deathsmiles 2 worth the outrageous price

Its not impossible, just a bit annoying

Keep playing

Outrageous? It doesn't even cost as much as DBCS

Yeah my bad
I thought the disc version was the RF one but it's the dlc version

youtube.com/watch?v=hgwiY4VWk9g

does it look fun?
y = buy it, n = don't

Lasers are just the worst.

Use the bombs to get through!

...

Recently bought Sky Force, not bad.

I am looking for a good shmup, similar to 1942 but with rpg elements and ugrade systems with depth

Imports are fairly expensive. My first will probably be Mushi Futari

That or SDOJ

>Mushi Futari
>SDOJ

husbando pilots > waifu pilots tbqh

What's the general consensus on this one?

idgaf this game is god tier until you start S++'ing later levels

...

That's a cute Patchouli cosplay!

Man, /qa/ used to be so chill.

So, what shmups or any other games will you buy on the sale, /shmupg/?

I'll see how much Darius Burst goes down, but I doubt I will buy it, since I also still wanted to buy a stick.
Maybe I will buy Battle Crust, idk

I spend most of my money Mecha Ritz, so it's probably a handful of shitty 1 ruble games with trading cards.
