Since creating IMPLANTgames, shoot-em-ups have slowly become one of my favorite video game genres. The simple act of flying around the screen, dodging bullets, and shooting everything that moves, is inherently fun. While I feel the 16-bit consoles is where the genre really hit its stride, there were some solid entries available on the previous generation of hardware. So on today's episode of 5 Game, I present 5 good, NES Shmups.
