I don't think that you understand why Touhou was put in /jp/, OP.

I bought cowadooty black cocks on PS3 a while back, boy was that a mistake. Some Brazilian-Japanese guy called me a "mother fucker" in English, then when i said hi to an English kid he called me a "spastic" and a "mung."

Never touched it since.

I played some horizontals when I was a kid, mostly hated it. I started playing Touhou because I was bored and it seemed cute with good music. Honestly I was surprised how fun it can be.
Still haven't cleared them all so I don't feel the need to play other games.

Best shmup soundtrack of the 16 bit era was from "Twin eagle: Revenge Joe's Brothers". Only afterburner II comes close.

Whenever enemy fighter jets were approaching the soundtrack would switch to 80's rock with vocals, and you had to dogfight the jets in your helicopter.... This was very impressive for a 1988 top-down shooter.

It's nostalgia.. it was really just bad a 80's rock, but consider just a year earlier we were playing 1943 (a better shmup, in terms of gameplay) but the difference in the audio and visuals was drastic. It was the dawn of the 16-bit era.

The waterfall at 2:05 is especially nice by 1980's standards. Most games didn't even have moving/flowing water up till this point.

I'll be the first to admit that I suck at just about all forms of shmups; that being said, Einhander's hook for me was in its music.

I tried playing Banshiryuu a few years ago. I didn't like it. Ether Vapor was cool though. I don't have a console, so I can't play most newer shmups.

The only shmups that aren't playable on the PC in some form are like Deathsmiles 2, DDP DFK, and Otomedius Excrement.

Not really a a shmup and more Breakout on steroids, but everyone and I mean everyone should play Shatter. Or at least listen to Shatter music. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QzLix3UUJsk
