I am having a lot of fun with Wild Guns Reloaded
Wild West but it has robots is a cool aesthetic
>>

Great games but it sucks that not a single frame of Annie's panties can be seen, not even in the remaster.
>>
I love both the original and the remaster. I used to hold some of the best scores in the remaster back when I played it.
If you like the remaster you should play the original, it's quite different and if you ask me more challenging: there are less enemies at once due to the smaller screen, but each individual enemy is more of a threat so you need to react faster.
>>
what's with the fat woman though
>>
I always thought it was a really fun game and I'm not sure why it doesn't really have any imitators
>>

It's an entire subgenre, the Cabalvania though admitedly there aren't enough games in that genre. It's funny how people call Sin & Punishment a "railshooter" though. It's also a Cabalvania.
>>
>>12253440
look for cabal shooters
>>
>>12253454
S&P has constant progression though, it's only cabal-like when the movement stops for mini bosses and bosses
>>
>>12253470
So does GI Joe but that's a Cabal

the giant machines are the best bosses

Sorta, but S&P just has a lot more elements that really makes Cabal be just 1 of the many elements it has. You don't have platforming on GI Joe.
>>
>>12253487
the crab is the easiest boss, but it wins by being a big robot crab alone
>>
Be sure to check out Great Battle V
>>
>>12253454
The important thing about the genre is that it's third person and you control your character independantly from the aiming cursor.
You wouldn't say that Space Invaders is/isn't a SHMUP because there is/isn't scrolling.
>>
>>12253505
I wanted to like this but the difference in power after you die and you're not powered up is just insane for a game of this type and it makes the game such a slog
>>
>>12253505
>creatively bankrupt crossover slop with le heckin chibi graphics
>>
>>12253534
You convinced me, I will now stop liking a game that's relevant to this thread's genre discussion.
>>
>>12253454
Oh damn I didn't know the genre had its own name, I never really thought of s&p as being similar to wild guns but now that you mention it they do have some things in common, one of those things being that they're both fun as hell.
>>
>>12253454

I call them "cursor shooters," there's a few more like Nam-1975, Alligator Hunt, and (my favorite) Gamshara

Would love it if they gave us a cute native American otokonoko instead of a hambeast.

Wild Guns and Blood Bros were truly peak wild west fun alongside Sunset Riders.
>>
Soundtrack is so good

This and Great Battle IV are really good.
>>
>>12251758
Is there any afference between the difficulty modes in the original SNES game? I've tried them all out an they all seem identical.

That was a joke
