Title: Complete list of Famicom shooters?
Post by: Shumi Nagaremono on April 13, 2016, 05:01:27 am

Sorry if this has been asked before.

I've been looking for a complete list of Famicom (Star Force style) shooters, but have been coming up short. Every time I find a list, it's either NES based, or includes things like FDS exclusives. I think I may be getting close to a complete set, but I'd like to make an actual checklist to work from.

Thanks for any help. It's greatly appreciated!

isn't this good enough?

there are both NES and Famicom games separately. You could check and exclude NES exclusives if there are any.

Thanks! Looks like, as far as FC exclusives go, I'm just missing the following:

Captain Ed, Dezaemon, Recca (which I'm going to CONTINUE missing for, like, ever), Star Soldier Special Version (which I've never even heard of), Zunou Senkan Galg, Moero Twinbee, Gun Nac, and Uchuu Keibitai SDF.

Recca aside, not an insurmountable list.

But on the NES side, there's Super Spy Hunter, which looks pretty pricey on the FC. Ah, well. Something to work towards. ;)

Also, Gun.Smoke, I think.
