Stinger - NES - mix of horizontal and vertical though
Kid Icarus - last level is a blast though the rest of the game is not a SHMUP.
What part of MN are you from? I grew up at Int'l Falls on the Canadian side.
Originally Superior, WI but it is right across the bridge from Duluth. Now I'm in Owatonna which is near Rochester.
My aunt and uncle used to live in International Falls. I haven't been to Canada in ages but I've got to get my girls there sometime.

I'd recommend Darius Gaiden. One of the best in the series, and its on both the PS1 or the Saturn. The Saturn version is better, and pretty cheap too.

don't forget
