If you think you're good at SHMUPS (Shoot em' ups), then check this game out!
Summer Carnival '92 Recca (meaning Blazing Fire in Japan) is possibly one of the hardest games of it's genre out there, so if you think up to the challenge take a peek at this video:

I have a pirated version on my Japanese Famicom, because the original is near impossible to find for less than $200. I am able to beat the normal game, but I don't think I'll ever be able to beat hard mode or Zanki Attack!
Just because you don't have a Famicom doesn't mean you can't play it though. There is a ROM floating around on the internets for use in an emulator. Don't play this game if you have high blood pressure or anger management problems. You've been warned!

Oh really? Cool! Not too many people I know actually own one.
I have never heard of Star Control (or 2 for that matter). I'll have to check that out.
My favorites are Gradius II, and my SMBj Pirate cart.
I don't care what anyone says, old games are awesome!
