For SNES I'd pick Phalanx.

I see all the lists of everyone's favorites. So what draws one into a certain title? How about a sentence or two as the reason why?
PS2 Raiden III
This one has a very unique feature. Ever play Cookie and Cream? What does this have to do with Raiden III? Well I love different types of games with a unique game play, such as Twin Stick games. How about controlling both Player One and Player Two ships with one controller!
Left Analog, L1 and L2 = Player One
Right Analog, R1 and R2 = Player Two
For game mode Press ∆
You can work both ships, this so much better then random good luck bullet hell shumps. Some real skill involved here! I do miss the giant crawling crab tanks from PS1 Raiden Project though.
