The BEST TurboGrafx-16 SHMUPS (arcade-style shoot 'em ups) | Johnny Grafx
Had a lot of fun digging back into the TG16 library to make this! Enjoy!
FYI I'm only focusing on Hucard/Turbochip games in this video. I feel like the CD games are sort of their own ecosystem and deserve their own video :)

Your TurboGrafx videos are SUPER top tier and it reminds that you are indeed Johnny Grafx 😃 I always look forward to these turbo videos and I think your edits make these videos so fun to watch. On top of all that, you really drop some knowledge and your presentation is always so good. I hope I see more TurboGrafx videos in time. Maybe action games and RPG games videos? 😁😁😁

Glad you enjoy! I've definitely got ideas for more. I'll be touching on CD games next I think. I'd also like to eventually follow up my old PC Engine hidden gems video with some more. Maybe we could collab on that? 😌

@@Johnnygrafx dear sir, I would love to collab on anything PCE/TG16 related. PCE stuff takes priority over everything! ❤❤
Oh yeah! The best shooters on the best system for shooters!!!
I'm absolutely awful at SHMUPS, but I keep coming back to these because they have some of the best soundtracks on the system hands down

Smoke some grass and try star parodia, it's a great begginer shmup with good music and fair difficulty without being too easy.
Great to see another person making Turbo Grafx content. Theres not enough of you in this Nintendo obsessed gaming world. I been collecting PC Engine games for years now and I absolutely LOVE Soldier Blade, Gate of Thunder, Air Zonk!

Yeah it's a gorgeous game honestly
Really great video! I’ve been getting more into SHMUPs lately after neglecting them for so long, I’m a fan of a lot of the games you talked about in here!
Anewshmup channel, and an excellent one to boot! hats off to you sir
More turbografx content please. I wouldnt mind even longer and more indepth content about each game. Spoil every detail about all of the games lol
Maybe I'll give that Air Zink one a try.

I played AirZonk on my TurboExpress back in the day and loved it!
thanks for video and happy new year/shmupping!
I salute you for your passion.... I too am a retro gamer however shooters never hit my endorphins. Regardless- I certainly salute.
gotta give it to mushihimesama futari for my favorite bug themed shooter…great vid!
we had a turbo growing up but didn’t have a whole lot of games, out of all these games on this list we only had dragon spirit which i loved. i always enjoyed raiden when i played it on the arcade at the grocery store every saturday

Raiden at a grocery store sounds pretty awesome
Great video, but Magical Chase is always brought up in conversations about the TurboGrafx. It's not a hidden gem by any means.
I've not played many PC Engine games, and the shmups look so good

They are! Definitely worth exploring that library.
Awesome video and excellent picks for the shmups. I'd love to know where you got those HuCard sleeves. They look really good.

Just some cheapo credit card sleeves from Amazon! "Bronagrand" brand I think.
I love formation armed F, never beat It though

That game is HARD
I regretted not buying Dragon Spirit at my local game shop (the only turbo game I've seen in the wild besides the sports games). Though, I could have gotten the Japanese version for much cheaper.

Yep the Japanese version is fine. Also the pc engine-only sequel Dragon Saber is great too.
no mention of Gate of Thunder or Wings of Thunder!?
