Hyper Zone is one of my favorites. Kinda like a space harroir clone with mode 7 graphics. More virtual reality feel to it though. Very fun straigh forward shooter.

Super Aleste, or Space Megaforce is a nice addition to the Aleste series that started on the Master System. Just good solid shooting games.

Metal Combat and Battle Clash were both fecking great games.
Its just fun to hold up that super scope and go one on one with a mech.
So fun

Im hoping that superscope games will be avaible in the Virtual Console.
I have plans to tear up a Wiimote and put it in an old Super Scope case :3
Maybe rewire the buttons somehow or something. Gotta be a way to do it.

Anyway, other games would be the Final Fight series. One two and three despite all the cuts to make it extra clean :/

Plus PilotWings was a great one that shouldnt be missed. Im waiting for a next gen sequal.

Oh ya, cant forget the Daruis games, if you like to shoot robotic fish that is

Graduis three for SNES was a memerable one.

Also cant forget Super Ghols and ghosts
Oh and Ninja Warriors Again was one of my favorites too.

Oh ya, Starfox2 beta, but a fun one :3
Still havent tried the DS remake of it though.

Are we allowed to post imports?

One very interesting fighting game is:
Yuuyuu Hakusho Tokubehuten

Basically you pick a character, you each have your half of the screen, you try do a button combination (like up+B)
before and with more power than your opponent, then the move you did plays out on the screen in anime form.

It's kind of like an interactive anime.

It has all kinds of cool sequences like cutting to your projectiles running into each other if you shoot them both at
the same time.

You don't need to know Japanese to play, but a trip to GameFAQs won't hurt in learning the moves.


A great shooter that anyone that likes Gradius should enjoy:
Cho Jikuu Yosai Macross

A problem with a lot of shooters is that they are poor quality games. Some even look like someone's homeworkassignment.
Especially side-scrollers for some reason. It's my opinion that even the console versions of Gradius are lacking that special something.
Well, except Gradius V which is perfect.

This Macross game is a great quality game. The graphics and gameplay look like the team actually cared about the final product.
And no Japanese needed!

By the way, I'm too lazy to check back but Axelay better be on that list!

(Hope they all come to VC)

Batman Returns (Another Scrolling Beat-em-up with Wall Slam FTW!)
Biker Mice From Mars (Decent racer in the style of Rock 'n Roll Racing)
Cameltry/On The Ball (Better than the DS version)
Cybernater/Assault Suits Valken (Amazing Shoot-em-up. A MUST PLAY!!)
Ganbare Goemon 2-4 (Japanese Mystical Ninja sequels but can be played through without much trouble)
Magic Sword (Just because I used to play this at my arcade alot)
Mario no Super Picross (DS version of this out soon)
Ninja Warriors Again (Great scrolling Beat-em-up)
S.O.S./Septentrion (A bit of a different platforming game)
Skyblazer (I remember this because of that awesome Super Play cover. The game wasn't too bad either)
Stunt Race FX (This was great even with the crappy framerate)
Sunset Riders (Great shooter)
Super Adventure Island (Classic platformer)
Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts (Why hasn't this been added yet?)
Tae Kwon Do (Really really good beat-em-up)
Tetris Butou Gaiden (Best Tetris Multiplayer. Ever.)
Tin Star (Werid but cool)
Twisted Tales of Spike McFang (Nice Action RPG)
U.N. Squadron (Better than the Arcade version)
Whirlo (Great Platformer which will CHANGE YOUR ICY HEART! Seriously, that opening cinema freaked me as a kid)

I wanna see some more different things in the list

Zombies Ate My Neighbours, that game was awesome. I couldn't play it for so long cuz my SNES broke and i just didn't want to use an emulator to play it on my pc. Now that I can use homebrew GC on my Wii I'm playing it all the time

Also Mario Kart, classic all time favourite mario kart game.
And Super Mario World, but thats a given
