  • Old replay from 2014.
    Hishouzame is probably one of the most influential games out there when it comes to shmups. This game laid a lot of the foundation for shmups as we know them today. It also has a very rad soundtrack.
    Hishouzame is an old Toaplan game, which means the overal design is lots of aimed sniper tanks that shoot sparse, but fast bullets. The game is not terribly difficult though and checkpoint recovery is pretty forgiving. You can still get pretty far without strictly memorizing everything.
    This was part of a shmup tournament back then. Only the first two loops counted, so I checkpoint-milked the final boss a bunch for huge amounts of score. After that I finished another loop lol.
    The game loops infinitely but it stops getting harder somewhere in loop 3. If you really sat down for it, you could probably easily keep playing this forever.
    One thing to be careful about in this game is the shot limit. You can only have a certain number of shots on-screen at a time. Because of this, you might not be able to shoot when in a pinch. To deal with this, it's better to have a separate button for a somewhat lower autofire rate. I had the autofire set to 10 in Mame for normal play and 1 for pointblanking.
    Extend items are completely random as far as I know. Not that you'd be hurting for extends either way.

    I fondly remember playing this game at a restaurant in Wisconsin while on vacation with my family in the early 2000s, drove me nuts trying to remember the name of this game for years, finally figured it out today thanks to somebody on Reddit. I sucked at this game but it was pretty fun. It blows my mind that this came out in the 80s as it looks like it could've come out in the 90s.

      When you played this game, it may have been almost 20 years old.. I watch these replays because its simple elegance and memorable tunes are so nostalgic for me. The 80s and 90s were probably the best times for these arcade machines, when the arcades were a social venue where teens and twentysomethings could hang out in a non judgemental environment. Those arcades have mostly gone the way of the video rental stores, all in the name of "progress" and greater on demand convenience, but we lost something in return: the ability to interact with others in person, enjoying a shared hobby or interest. I still believe these games can be experienced with friends and family. Done right, they can bring humans together..

      @@ozymandias1758 I do like convenience but it is depressing to see more and more places near me getting rid of their arcade and pinball machines, I fondly remember having a birthday party at my local Pizza Hut and they had some great arcade games like Bust-A-Move and Sunset Riders and my local Brunswick Zone had some killer pinball tables like Monster Bash. I miss those.

    The serenity I used to feel while beating this game; the music, the flow of the game, the speed. My only gripe was that it didn't have more levels.
    And I know you can get emulators, but I'd love to be able to get my hands on a real arcade cabinet of this.
    In the mid 90s we were in Scarborough, a seaside town in England, and an arcade was selling one for £80. My wife would NOT let me buy it. Never have forgiven her for that ... And I even mentioned it when we got divorced after 27 years!

    Hey... At 57:21 , Don't shoot the second incoming train, until you pick the bomb at the third wagon of the first train. Shoot the first train, pick the bomb, and then shoot the next incoming train and you will get another bomb in the second train. If you see the bomb in the first train, and destroy the second train before picking the first bomb, no bomb will appear in the second incoming train. You did It correctly at 10:08

Either he toasts me, or his escort, or the very last air armada + massed ground support. Just can't make that last run in one go. "Die once or you're screwed" was invented with this game, I swear.
