- This time I take a deep dive into the SHMUP library of one of my all time favorite consoles, the Sony Playstation, and look at the Top 10 best shooters you can play on it! There are a ton of SHMUPS on the PS1, so picking just 10 was not easy. Sit back, relax, and see my picks for the best PS1 shooters money can buy!

That's a really good list of shmups on the PS1 you got there, I'm especially a huge as fan of Einhander (my favorite shmup on the PS1 as well as my favorite shmup next to Radiant Silvergun).
Seriously though, Einhander is basically the best Gundam shmup that is anything but Gundam, and the Makoto Kobayashi-esque mecha designs are just the icing on the cake.
Babe wake up there's a new wiggles arcade video
Thanks honey
I never went to bed…
Not mentioning R-type Delta is crazy to me
The GOAT UA-cam shmup ranker returns!
Darius Gaiden for the Playstation was a well known dodgy port especially compared to the pretty much perfect Saturn one. The best (imo) shooter for my 2nd favorite console.
Darius Gaiden is still great for PS even with it's flaws, (frame rate, many special effects being cut etc) as the games sheer quality shines through.
the Saturn port is far superior for sure.
omg miss R-Type Delta
Delta's a true exclusive not available on any other platform too. It came out for PS3 but was taken down years ago and has not resurfaced anywhere AFAIK.
Hey this video you did on the SHMUPS is perfect!
I LOVE playing SHMUPS!
(Especially on the Saturn!)
I LOVE the parodius series (mainly because it reminds me of being a kid at Chuck E. Cheese playing that simpsons arcade game!)
Same with twinbee
Dodonpachi is AWSOME!
(Kind of forgot I got gunbird but that too is pretty good!)
Same with Darius and gradius!
Radiant silvergun (another classic on the Saturn)
And Salamander I remember getting because I was rewarded the deluxe pack plus while I was house sitting for my family!
(That was such a WEIRD week to survive with!)
I love that M2 just rereleased DoDonPachi DOJ, but they need to do an arcade port of the original.
M2 is doing the Lord's work. I would freak out if they re-released the first Dodonpachi (and Donpachi) for modern consoles!
it's cool to see Compile get mentioned on this list; it's worth noting that many of the devs that went and formed Raizing and developed Sorcer Striker were originally from Compile, so some of the studio's DNA ends up in some of those earlier Raizing games.
Man I gotta say something about these videos makes me incredibly happy
Wow the number one spot caught me off guard, often heard or read that the ps1 (and saturn for that matter) version of * game name censored for spoiler reasons* weren't all that good or at least compared to the arcade versions. And yeah ps1 indeed has a great shmup library and you did mention that you couldn't fit in all the good stuff. Still surprised r type delta and espcially gradius gaiden didn't make the cut! Strikers 1945 2 is one of my personal favorites and maybe better than sonic wings? Same developer (or at least mostly the same people making it). But (and maybe i should have started with this :D ) happy that a new vid is out and even with the above minor nitpicks or maybe better put just my personal preferences, i indeed enjoyed it! Looking forward to your next vid, but def understand life does take many interesting turns and i might have to be patient. But the content is very much appreciated!
Thanks! I certainly have never had an issue with either console port of Dodonpachi. Funny enough, I was having some technical issues with my capture card losing sync a lot while recording so I actually played the arcade port of Dodonpachi (via MAME) and aside from the visuals looking more crisp and subtle framerate differences, my experience was minimally better than compared to the Saturn or PS1 port. I'm sure someone on system11 has meticulously broken down all the differences, but my experience is roughly the same across all versions.
As mentioned in my video, this could have been a top 20 or 25 before the quality of the shmups became unworthy of being recommended. Both those games would have made a top 20. I'm admittedly not a big Rtype guy, but Delta is probably my favorite in the series. Gradius is hit or miss for me, but I still really enjoy Gaiden, just not enough for it to crack the top 10.
I just imported the PS4 version of DoDonPachi and it is magnificent…highly recommended and plays without issues on US PS4
I paid $300 for Harmful Park about 6 years ago and I’m happy I did. It’s one of the most expensive games in my collection now.
Awesome video keep up the good work.
Great video! I always love all of your hilarious memes and references. Dang though, how do so many of these games have such awesome soundtracks? I was especially digging the song you used from Zanac x Zanac.
It's really close, but I'd say Zanac or Einhander has the best PS1 OST for a SHMUP. There almost isn't a bad song between them.
Finally got around to watching. Amazing video. Just picked up like new copies of Raiden DX, Zanac x Zanac, and Einhander per your recommendation. I already own the Saturn ports of most the others on this list. I’ll Probably get Sexy Parodius on PSX or the Saturn soon too! Thanks for the amazing recommendations, once again. Keep these up. Entertaining and useful as always.
Thank you! You are in for a very good time with those games!
@@wigglesarcade8261no prob! One question.. you wouldn’t put Dodonpachi Daioujou up there with Dodonpachi and Mushi Futari? I think it’s up there personally.
Gurentai, Dodonpachi, Thunder Force V, and Raystorm are top class timeless classics.
Hey, can u search a PS1 SHMUPS game for me? It's horizontal plane shooting, bosses mostly Zodiac signs (Leo, Capricorn, etc)..
And after defeating the boss u can equip it to upgrade ur plane..
Also, u can choose the next stage after defeating the boss..
I look everywhere but can't find it..
This is the one I’ve been waiting for!
Hey man you do you. Quality over quantity.
Great video! Well spoken.
If you keep uploading good videos, I'll keep watching them
Sounds legit
Came here just to get the name Einhander. I finally got my childhood video game collection out of storage and have a demo disc that has it on it but couldn't remember the title of the game. Looked for it for a long time and never found it as a kid. Thanks
I wish for once, a video like this wasn't half japanese exclusives.
Yeah, everyone else got screwed during the 90s when it came to shmups :/
G. Darius is way up there for me. Inside top 5, easily. Nice list tho!
Why oh why does shmup content get so little attention? I love your videos, don’t care how often then appear, I’m always grateful to get your perspective on this stuff. Happy new year!
Because the genre is stupid and you just go in a straight line and spam shoot.
15:40 Ketsui, Dai-Ou-Jou, Battle Garegga, and Crimzon Clover say hi
If any of those games were on the PS1, I might agree with you.
Was Mushihimesama Futari on PS1? @@wigglesarcade8261
lol
Great games, but battle garegga was ported only on saturn (in the 90s, ofc).
Would love to see just a top 25 PS1 Shmup List as a plain list since, well, videos are tough. I’d like to see what I have missed 😮
I´ve heard the Playstation versions of several shoot ´em ups are really good, sometimes even better playing than the Saturn games. I´m not very good at them, but I own a few. One of my favourites is Gradius Gaiden, it´s a cool PS exclusive part of the series.
Einhander absolutely deserves a remaster or remake, and a sequel, and another sequel after that.
Wow, first time I ever rewound a intro, that music mixed with the imagery was sick! Awesome into I had to watch it a few times
WOT? no R type Delta? Granted Robotron X may not be seen as a schmup but that game is addictive and best played at night, along with DOOM.
I’m curious why Philosoma didn’t make the cut…
Cool!
Never had the pleasure of playing dodon pachi
Cool games, meaning to get into shmups. Are any of them ps1 exclusives?
So what are the best shmups ever across all systems?
That's a video for another time ;)
No one gonna talk about the huge ball sack in the 2nd game?
Whats the first song called in the background during the intro?
Zanac X Zanac - Snowfield Story
Einhander is the best! It made many people poop and sob.
'Aayyy, yeah screw it, you get a subscribe just for acknowledging Einhänder lol.
Zanac is already over $120 on eBay dayammmmmm
DONDONPACHI JUST GOT A CRAZY PORT TO SWITCH AND PS4
I believe that was just Daioujou, but that's still awesome news!
babbling for 3:30 mins before the actual content starts
This is the most boring, copy paste, pointless genre I’ve ever seen in gaming.
