I adore shmups, even though I'm terrible at them. One of my favorite games is the original arcade Raiden.  The TurboGrafx port was the first game I bought for my Turbo - I actually bought it quite a while before I bought the console.  My first impression wasn't good though.  It starts off way harder than the arcade version, with about twice as many enemies attacking you in the first level. 

But I gave it another shot a few weeks ago on a whim, and I was pleased to find it's actually MORE manageable than most other versions once you get decently powered up.  The spread shot (red powerup) seems wider and stronger than in other versions after 3-4 powerups, and that makes the game much more playable. 

So now I'm hooked on TurboGrafx Raiden.

It is such a great port.

Raiden's a game I haven't been able to get very far in.  It's pretty rough.
Current want list:  Bomberman 93

JJ and Jeff is one I always go for. Such a fun and brutal platformer. The music is great as well.

I played Makai Prince last night for the first time. Weird little platformer with graphics that sorta remind me of Pac-Land. Kinda controls like shit (floaty), but still enjoyable.
Games I Need: Bonk 3 (HuCard), Legend of Hero Tonma, Magical Chase, Soldier Blade, Super Air Zonk.

Got one to sell? PM me!

After messing with the mini, I went back to Victory Run and after three decades, I finally got a clear. It has it flaws but it's an early game and I found joy (and challenge) in playing it.
