Yeah the video is worth it just for that. But most people wont watch the video, because they arent interested in 2D shooters.

I wouldn't say that I'm interested into them either, well not anymore. You would have to keep playing such a game over and over and over again just to beat it. (reminds me of the time I was playing ONLY Ikuraga trying to beat it) I felt the same afterwards when I did beat N+. Dead from inside... But somehow more alive then ever.

Yeah Im procrastinating the last few episode of N+. They are taking almost an hour each now, and its an hour of PURE PAIN.

From Parodius on it seemed like only the truly hardocre could keep up with the action. Arcades helped nurture so many of he current generation of technology creators and the early shooters helped draw the mass crowds in so they could florish.
