Find out in this comprehensive A-Z history. From the MSX to the Sega Master System, to the Mega Drive, PC Engine, and Super Nintendo, Compile released some of the most well known Shoot Em Ups of the 80s and 90s. Musha Aleste, Blazing Lazers (Gunhed), Space Megaforce (Super Aleste), Spriggan, Power Strike II, Guardian Legend, Zanac, Gun Nac, the Game Gear Aleste games and more, Compile was prolific. A complete history including the formation of Raizing by ex-Compile and Toaplan staff, and the incredible games they created like Battle Garegga. Contract work for other developers like Hudson Soft (NEC) and Naxat, porting classics like RType and Devil's Crush. Oh yes, and some series called Puyo Puyo. Find out what made Compile so unique and my favorite developer of #shootemups of the era. And what are they up to today? From the new M2 Aleste Collection to the upcoming Aleste Branch and more.
