How you doing folks? Jordan and I (Juan) battle it out in our top Shoot em Up games on Switch! Who wins? Jordan leave a ⭐ Emoji and for Juan leave a 👊 emoji! We loved making this, a lot of footage is from our own reviews so for me info, check out our reviews on RUclips! Also Subscribe for your chance to win a Switch OLED on the way to 100k subs!. Thank you!
These list videos are great. Thanks for making them. Out of the shmups in this video, what are the easiest ones? I'm terrible at the genre but wish to improve (and enjoy myself at the same time)!
What a list. I own all but 5 of the games mentioned and even opened a Japanese account to get Esp.Ra.De.Psi.
For beginners, the game that got me into shmups was Skyforce Reloaded . It allows you to gain currency after each run which you spend on powering up, making it easier the more you play.
My other favourites are Crimzon Clover, Graceful Explosion Machine and Jamestown.
Would be good to see a Parodius remake/port/reboot. I loved that franchise. Horizontal shooters look great on the Switch.
I was thinking the same thing. Underrated classic. Maybe at the very least they'll make the SNES version available.
Fantastic, I'm in!
There is no way i could choose one your picks over the other, the whole video is awesome! Ive played DoDonPachi & Espgulda II on other systems so much, that i am going to wait for a physical edition (hope hope hope) before i pick them upon switch. So much goodness on this list :D
I’m really starting to love the pickup and play nature of these games. Safely purchasing every single one of these. 💪🏽🔥keep up the great work!
Going to be expensive but we'll worth it we reckon!
I’ve been eagerly awaiting this one for ages! Bravo guys! ⭐️👊🏻
Guys I can’t believe you didn’t mention Skyforce Reloaded...me and my partner have clocked up 60 hours on it so far and the Original Skyforce is also available🤗ps also enjoy playing Hyper Sentinel
Thanks Kevin, I personally don't like putting stuff on a list I don't own or have played as I don't feel it's then right to recommend if you know what I mean. That's why I didn't pick it, it's on my backlog to play! So many folks been saying it's great! Thanks, Juan
If you guys really are into Shmups this much, you should definitely check out *the 'Flip Grip'* accessory for the Switch. It's hands down the definitive accessory to play Shmups in Tate mode (vertical). It's a 'frame' that you add to the console that basically allows you to use it vertically with the Joycons on the side. It works wonderfully, and it's retailed at a very decent price too.
Simply put, it's a total *MUST HAVE!*
I received mine like a week ago, and i haven't stopped playing my huge collection of Shmups since then, it's an absolute blast.

Great review nice and fast showing lots of titles and getting to the meat of the good and bad (if any) for each one. How a review should be! Also music lover here what is the retrowave track playing at like 14-15 mins in? Guns blazing from Canada!!!
The Overpowered mode in RollingGunner is rad! Gradius V was the first horizontal shmup I remember with a dual analog mode and RG reminds me of Treasure's masterpiece. Still waiting on my physical copy from Strictly Limited though.
They really need to release Psyvariar and ESP Ra. De. outside of Japan. I think they would sell a heap with an international release. These two being exclusive to Japan seems to drive the price up to ridiculous amounts as well. Would love to get hold of these two and the Aleste Collection at a decent price. This is a solid list of games but the Switch library is strong and you could easily double the number and still be covering top shooters. I really enjoy all of the ones you have mentioned and they are good picks.
Psyvariar had a USA release.
Some all time classics here..
While I love the image of Jordan dismantling the living room to flip the telly, I've gotta give the win to Juan with R type. Amiga 500 crew 4 life ;]
Awesome Thanks Judith!
Also Gunbird 2 and Dragon Blaze have the most satisfying hit sounds and feel as well as the explosion sounds. Two of my very favourite!
Pawarumi is back on Playasia for anyone that is interested. I got a copy a couple months ago and it's very affordable. I picked up Sine Mora, Pawarumi, Dimension Drive, Shikhondo and Deathsmiles 1 & 2 recently. Also surprised there was no mention of Crimson Clover World EXplosion.
The visuals on Danmaku are amazing! - First thing that drew me to that game!
Was Sky Force Anniversary in there?? I must have missed it! That’s my favourite shooter.
I'm not big on shumps, haven't played many but freedom finger is my choice of the few I played. Definitely will be trying some on this list.
Freedom Finger is awesome
Amazing video guys, Thank You!! It’s going to cost me about $100 though 😂 Also…my favorite didn’t make it on the list, Sky Force Reloaded (I forgive you lol). The gameplay, upgrade system, online challenges, graphics, everything are top notch. And it’s under $10. Highly recommended!
Ooooooo how could we forget that one!
I agree that's also my favorite on the switch. Would love a good recommendation for a game like it.
I have Skyforce Reloaded as well and in my opinion it pretty much combines all of my least favorite aspects of shmups into one helluva stinky turd sandwich: underpowered weapons, uninspired art and an upgrade system that reminds me of playing free to play phone games, only without the means to spend cash in order to bypass the soul crushing grind.
That's a lot of shmups, plenty of great ones here - but you somehow missed one of the very best: Crimzon Clover World Explosion!
Not played that one personally! Thanks for the rec! Will deffo check it out. Juan
Agreed, worthy of tieing ESP.
Crimzon clover is good, but it comes with the side effect of most other shmups feeling kind of slow after you play it lol.
Loved the video. Glad shmups keep coming to to switch. One of my favorites is the Game Paradise Cruisin Mix. 👊⭐️
Thanks so much buddy!
All great choices, but I'm going with Jordan on this one. Thank You both for all the reviews!!! ⭐
Yeah I have been wishing for a video like this. I absolutely suck at most shmups, but I am also sucker for them. I loved loved them since the NES days.
Glad we hopefully made your wish buddy!
Awesome list, only missing Crimzon Clover!
Don't forget the NEO-GEO games on the Switch, Blazing star and Aero fighter 1+2 are $8 each and they're great games.
You guys always kill it with these epic lists! Can't pick a side on this one. ⭐ ✊
I did want to mention that R-Type Final 2 is also great on the Switch. Classic R-Type gameplay and challenge with tons of content. Lots of ships, weapons, and other goodies to unlock. It's a great one.
Cheers buddy! Really appreciate it 👊👍
Was thinking of getting r type final 2, but I've heard/read about some mixed opinions regarding some possible performance issues present in the switch version? For those that have extensively played it, how smoothly does or does it not run? Because I would love to get into the game big time... including the base game as well as its tons & tons of DLC.
@@sofaking1180 It's seen some updates and I can confirm it plays much better than it did at launch. It's not perfect though, you'll get frame drops from time to time with large bullet patterns. There are also two stages in the base game that always have a bit of lag during certain sections.
Excellent Top, great games and very good selection.
Thanks buddy!
These are awesome recommendations. I would just add Andre Dunnos 2 to the list.
With so many different kinds of shooters it was unexpected to see the list dominated by autoscrolling bullet hell type games. Honestly the only game like this I ever got into was Einhander.
Yea we do love a good bullet hell!
You missed skyforce reloaded! You are gonna have to do this vídeo again to include it
We picked out favs that we have played and can fully recommend. Thanks for letting us know on that one. Sure folks will check it out 👍
I must say ⭐️👊 because both lists have many of the best shmups … psykio, cave, treasure … and there could be many more to put there (even some from arcade archives) thanks a lot guys … and continue to review shmups on switch … I always love to hear you about shmups …
and there are still some oldies I want to see ported on switch : Ketsui and mushi mishi pork from Cave, batsugun and tatsujin (Toaplan) radiant silver gun (treasure) and battle Garegga.
No alerte on both of your list ?
I would have put Razion EX and Sturmwind Dx on the list too
And I already wait the next M2 port : his house same! Same! Same!
Brilliant comment! Thank you so much for taking the time to watch and express the games you like. To be fair there are more we could have added but we love these!
👊 Great choices guys!!
Need a Whip Rush (Sega Genesis/MD) remaster for Switch. It's what got me into the SHMUP games as a kid, and I keep going back to it!
Awesome that would be so sweet!
Would love to get a switch OLED.
Favorite Shump game on the switch is Shikhondo Soul eater.
Love the Asian mythology inspiration art style, level design & boss designs.
The downside to this Shump game is the lack of TATE mode that many other Shump games on switch have.
Honorable Shump mention that I would give is Astebreed. A pretty cool 2.5D/3D Shump game from the talented developers over at Edelweiss. (The same team that developed Sakura of rice & Ruin.)
⭐️
Thanks for the wonderful comment buddy!
Capcom arcade is full of good shooters. Progear & Gigawing really stand out.
Also UN squadron and twin bee are great, and free if you have the online service
Great video! I really hope ZeroRanger gets a port to switch. It's phenomenal.
Thanks very much indeed 👍
⭐🌟⭐Although Juan had some great picks but i gotta go with Jordan on this one!! I own most of your picks!
great list its a close one but ill give it to jordad for gunbird you should also check out crimson clover a amazing vertical bullethell and on the capcom arcade stadium and for $2 a piece progear and gigawing to great games for a price that anyone who owns a switch should own
Cheers buddy!
Lol "DA RIUS cha cha cha"
I hope zero ranger eventually comes to switch with a nice collectors edition with a cd soundtrack and everything
Great stuff thanks
Your lists are quite balanced from both of you. Its a tie for me!🌟👊
Thanks buddy!
⭐️🍌👊 awesome quick review
The comments added some otherwise forgotten games
🌟👊 you are both Shmups connaisseur. Good list!
Thanks buddy!
Looking forward to more shumps for the Switch. Perhaps another Compile collection with MUSHA? 😁😁😁
I put about 265 hours into MushihimeSama! So happy to see see it get a physical! The princess is free!!!
There are really a ton of good ones 👍
There really is some great stuff!
Picked up 'Sine mora EX' at my local cex for £4 lol bargain if you ask me! I love it, its got a decent story, even voice acting brings something different to the genre but a great shmup at the same time.
Arcade classic + eye watering price suggests mame to me. Esp ra de runs great on there.
I have all these digitally except black bird steredenn blazing star and illmatic envelope i have blazing star on a mame emulator and esprade these are some of the best shmups i ever played out of all the ones here i'd have to say my favorite is dodonpachi resurrection
Black Bird is brilliant!!
@@SwitchWatch Steredenn looks sick so does black bird may pick them up next
Now I have all these mentioned on switch except esparade 👈🏻 (have that on mame) illmatic envelope swamp and black bird i do have radirgy swag id love to see illmatic envelope swamp come to the eshop here in the states
Treasure needs to release Radiant Silvergun on Switch.. the saturn and dreamcast are amazing stomping grounds for this style of games ..
It's coming
⭐ great list for the current shmup king, Nintendo Switch!!
Cheers buddy
Been going to game stop every payday looking for shoot em ups for the switch especially raiden IV Ikaruga and Deathsmiles and Espgluda nope no luck I'd sell my soul to own any of those the only game i have that's close to a shooter is Metroid Dread
Guys, what about Azure Reflections, a Touhou fanmade horizontal SHMUP that is tough as nails, but can also be played casually with a change of difficulty settings. Also, Jordan wins my vote, mostly because he mentioned Cotton Reboot, and Fantasy! ... I... Don't know how to leave a star when commenting from the computer... Going to try this: ⭐
Honestly I am a little disappointed that no one picked azure reflections but it happens. 👊 But there someone has to win I guess.
Fantastic video Jordan and Juan, it’s a draw from me gentlemen ⭐️ 👊
Cheers Scott! Which is your fav?
@@SwitchWatch You’re most welcome and my personal favourite is Sine Mora EX.
I don’t own many shoot em ups on the Nintendo Switch.
I also own R-Type Final 2 and Psikyo Shooting Library Vol. 1 👍
✊️On point bro
I love this kind of shooters, but i hate bullet hell. Any recommendations?
Sine Mora ex is a good game too
That is a good one actually!
🌟 great video
Shmups are sooo good.
I also like
Gryphon Knight
STURMWIND
Cee ya
Awesome thank you!
Lots of good choices, but overall, 👊
Thank you.
Your welcome!
Devil Engine
16:34 youre missing a letter there, its Mushi Hime Sama
I would love to win, That switch OLED!!!
Hope you get lucky Sean!
And yeah bring out ESP in English and put it on the UK eshop
We need a flip grip for the OLED.
Totally agree mate!
Yes please
The Oled Switch does fit into the flip grip. It's a little tight, but it works.
Super hydora is awesome.
where is squad 51? great game.
Did you look at the date before posting?
Steredenn now on sale on EU shop for 4.50€
👊 ⭐ its a tie for me this time ;3
Mooosh-E- he-may sama
👊⭐️ Crimzon Clover 🤫
Rotate the TV :'D
Absolutely!
⭐
We were promised links. Also...ten games here but it's too hard to give each a chapter? These titles are not the easiest to spell. Bet that's why Cotton is so popular...easy to spell.
🌠
Love shmups and Love Switch and Love Sales
WE NEED ZERO RANGER & KETSUI DEATHINY ON SWITCH DO U KNOW WHEN IT WILL ARRIVE?M
TRIBVTES FROM GERMANY EUROPE
