Seirei Senshi Spriggan (PC Engine)

[GonoManiax]

Could've been named "Musha Aleste 2" or "Robo Aleste 2" :P

I only want this game for the PC Engine; Everything else I've wanted I already have thanks to the virtual console. The PC Engine emulator roms are too complicated and too much work to fuck around with; It's not justifiable labor if I'm going to use it to simply play one game.

Buy games on wii is extorsion

[pirategreytooth]

They've gotta port this to Wii! I've played Blazing Lazers ever since it came out and I've never tired of these PC Engine shooters. Not only are PC Engine shooters incredibly challenging, but the music is absolutely fantastic! Among my absolute favorite VG music. I really want to know who plays the music for games like Lords of Thunder. Also, who does the music for this one? The drum breakdowns are very similar to Blazing Lazers and the soldier series.

[DmanOCN]

The guy who did the music for Lords of Thunder is the same guy who is currently doing the game music for Guilty Gears, can't recall his name atm though.

@DmanOCN

NO that's a lie

@pirategreytooth

Fuck wii get a hack of magic engine and play it free

[pirategreytooth]

No I will not fuck wii and I have Magic Engine. I just like the idea of good games getting the exposure they deserve! Virtual console is a great thing for that.

[narox]

OMG awesomeness.

[TimelordR]

What a great shmup. Too bad they never ported it over for the U.S. TurboGrafx-16. Maybe it will be a downloadable version for the Wii Virtual Console.

[Loader2K1]

This game definitely reminds me of MUSHA. I'll have to download this game and a PC-Engine emulator eventually.

[enalvarado]

Not bad... I still think Musha was the best one though.... Nice vid man....

[Princeben07]

Look for one on AMazon or E-bay. The games are STILL available if you look around on the net. And Spriggan WAS VERY KICK-butt. I play it on my PSP often. ^_^

[Toneman]

Good stuff, since it's Compile I see it got MUSHA Aleste genes

[Medelus]

Playing this sorta made me nostalgic for it. My favorite genny game, hands down.

[123doomdoom]

@Medelus I picked it up for 40 bucks recently...i mean Musha.

What is a PC-Engine shump? I own this disc and it stopped working sadly :(

[KyosukeShigeru]

Has anyone ever noticed that many PC-Engine shumps using the top-down layout share the same display set-up? Games like Blazing Lasers/Gunhed, Soldier Blade and others in that line share the same set-up. The score counter, speed display, stock and bombs or whatever else is used there are all in the same spot. I'm sure it is quite noticable, if you take the time to see that of course.

[Nintega]

Gunhed is also a Compile game.

[raddhazard]

Yeah,the same developer made all those games. Compile

[DE7ChainedDoor]

Not all, Super Star Soldier, Final Soldier and Soldier blade were all made by Hudson Soft

[Ragnakaos]

Cool. That power up system sound really interesting. Thank you for the upload!

[molondrongo]

The PC Engine was so underrated. I wish had bought one when it was easy to find one in Spain.

[Toneman]

Uh oh Meds pulled out the Engine :D
