A discussion about them came up in a chat, and I was trying to remember what I last played

It was Cho Aniki on the Wii VC :P

Technically Just Shapes & Beats, but you don't get to shoot anything back, you're just avoiding the whole time. But before that was Touhou Genso Rondo for PS4.

I think it was Dariusburst CS on PS4.

Could've been Sine Mora or Velocity 2X (if that counts) but I'm pretty sure it was Dariusburst. It's been months since I've played one.

Stardust Galaxy Warriors, I think. I haven't been playing many shmups lately.

Does the Gummi Ship count?

If not, probably Galaga several months ago at a barcade.

Space Megaforce on the Super Nintendo. One of my favorites for sure. Glad I found it for so cheap.

Those aren't shmups. They're on-rail shooters.

Shmups are usually sidescrolling or vertical scrolling shooters like Gradius or R-Type.

How are rail shooters not shoot 'em ups? The only difference is the perspective.

The Typing of the Dead definitely isn't a shooter since there's no aiming mechanic. You just have to correctly type words as they appear on screen.

Yeah, Wii had it. Hope you still have some funds on the store already, because you are too late to add more now.
