...and no mention of Seicross...and only one mention of Terra Cresta and Mag Max...seriously, this thread needs some love for the Nihon Bussan shmups.
Oh man, Seicross. I used to play that to death when I was a kid but it's not in my collection today. I need to rectify that.
It was such a strange game but I'd play it for hours on end. I have the song stuck in my head just thinking about it.
I used to always want to play Mag Max because it was in quite a few comic book advertisements (along with Seicross which I already loved) back in the day but I never got the chance until I was much older.

I also recently tried Gradius and Gradius II, after giving a bit of time to the arcade versions, and these are really impressive conversions for an 8-bit system.
Life Force? Or did you import the Famicom version?
Famicom only game...
Gradius II has some pretty mean graphics for a Famicom game.
