Is Shmup Collection still worth playing in 2026?

An Astro Port compilation brought over by eastasiasoft, Shmup Collection gathers three retro shoot 'em ups, Satazius, Gigantic Army and Armed Seven, which pay homage to the 16 bit classics of the genre. The demanding handling, the varied weapon systems and the old fashioned challenge win over purists of horizontal shooting and mecha action. The deliberately old school production and the compact content divide. A good collection for fans of retro shmups and score chasers after authentic challenge on Wii U.
