  • Impressive port

    This is a really impressive port of a colorful arcade shmup. Compared to the *similar* Gradius on the NES this is a technical masterpiece. There are some frustrations due to flicker (a common problem in the days of 8bit gaming) but I'm blown away at how good it is. For those new to R-Type: It is a slow moving horizontal shoot em up, NOT a danmaku bullet hell type game. Strategy and memorization are more important than twitch movements. What makes R-Type different from similar shmups is the Force ball that sits on the front or back of your ship, it can be used to absorb shots and can be detached from the R9. There are a couple of different power ups and learning the levels will help you to decide which laser type to stick with and which ones to pass up. Many say that this is one of the ...

  • R-Type: Pound for pound the best home port

    R-Type on Sega Master System is a marvel of a port. Consider this, the NES could not handle the game. The incredible amount of animation, sprites, backgrounds, scale, and boss size could only be accomplished on Master System. Compile, notable developer for many of their own shoot-em-ups of the era, including the Aleste / MUSHA series, was contracted out by Sega to convert this Irem classic.

Most importantly, the gameplay is as you may have remembered from the arcade (if you ever had a chance to play it back when it was released). Another reason why I think this is my favorite classic conversion of the game is the lack of a need for the screen to scroll. The ...

  • A MUST HAVE!!

    On any platform, any system, any time or place. This is the defacto standard for SciFi shootem ups. Tons of enemies, huge bosses, amazing power ups.. This game has it all. The R-Type series of games, are what all the others can only strive to become. Graphics, Sound effects, the Challenge. 5 Stars!

  • Great Port

    I had heard good things about this port, and they were all true.
