Recently, I've been very inspired by Yakumo's Retro-Core show, especially the Sega Saturn Shooting Special.
I figured, why not do one for the Neo-Geo? There are several shmups on the system, and most people are only familiar with a handful of them.
I plan to cover all 15 of the "accepted" Neo Shmups:
Aero Fighters/Sonic Wings 2
Aero Fighters/Sonic Wings 3
Andro Dunos
ASO II/Alpha Mission 2
Blazing Star
Captain Tomaday
Choutetsu Brikin'ger
Ghost Pilots
Last Resort
Prehistoric Isle 2
Pulstar
Strikers 1945 Plus
Twinkle Star Sprites
Viewpoint
Zed Blade/Operation Ragnarok
I also thought about throwing in Ninja Commando... I'm still not sure about that one though.
At any rate, I figured I would spend 3 to 4 minutes on each game, displaying footage and discussing my thoughts on each.
By making this post, I guess I'm trying to guage interest in such a project. If/when it's finished, I'll post it Archive.org... seeing as the server that housed my website crashed.
Let me know what you guys think.
