Howdy all. What are some good SHUMPs that will run on the GP2X? I just dropped some quarters on some arcade action and now I'm craving some at home :)
 
Noiz2sa, Kobo Delux, and Level SHMUP are the freeware I've found myself enjoying most.

As far as using emus go, Summer Carnival of '92 Recca, Super Star Soldier, Soldier Blade, and Gradius '90 are what I find myself playing most.
 
Gradius III of SNES is really great.Excelent for me.In Squidge SNES it works fullspeed with 275 OC or less.

I would recommend you Axelay too, but it´s slow for now :(

In Genesis-Megadrive DrMD emu you have a lot good ones:Gynoud,Thunder Force-series,...

In GnuBoy (GB&GBC emu) you have:Nemesis II for example.I love that game.

There are many more. These are just a few off the top of my head.
 
Try some of the Turbo-CD games on hu6280. Star Parodia, Sylphia, Rayxanber 2 all work perfectly and are brilliant shooters! There are a ton more on the system that I haven't tried yet...

R-type 1 or 2 (PC Engine)

Soldier Blade (PC Engine) uber game!!!

Salamander (PC Engine or MSX2)

Nemesis II (msx)

Lords of thunder (SCD PC Engine or Sega CD)

Hmm.. never heard of this game before, I'll check it out in a sec.

Also, an awesome shooter for gen/meg is Bio-Hazard Battle... believe me :p

Edit: It's a cool game. I was skeptical when i first loaded it up, but it has a nice powerup system :p.

The absolute best arcade-like shootemup that's available at the current time on the GP2X is Dodgin' Diamond II. Gadget's GP2X Invaders is also very nice, although in very early stages.

Sol Deace is the american name for the japanese game, Sol-Feace. The Megadrive version is watered down compared to the Mega-CD version which had a very strong soundtrack and good mode 7 style scaling and rotation in game.

Some great shooters to try:
Megadrive/Genesis: Hellfire, Zero Wing, Tatsujin, Gynoug
Snes: Super Aleste, Jikkyou Parodius, Osayberi Parodious
PC Engine: Gunhed, Final Soldier, Toilet Kids, Gradius II: Gofer, Spriggen II, Super Big Brother
Amiga: Battle Squadron
