I have a Dreamcast with nearly every shoot 'em up that was ever released for it.

Ikaruga
Border Down
Psyvariar 2: The Will To Fabricate
Zero Gunner 2
Giga Wing
Giga Wing 2
Gunbird 2
Mars Matrix
Chaos Field
Radilgy
TriZeal
Under Defeat
Trigger Heart Exelica
Karous

The only non shoot 'em up that I have for it is Street Fighter Alpha 3.

You're missing Bangai-O which is a HUGE oversight considering it's considered the second best on the console after Ikaruga. Much respect for the SHMUP love though, i'll give you that.

 

 

I said that I have NEARLY every shoot 'em up.

I have a copy of Bangai-O, just not legit. Reason being, I don't think it's all that great.

As for Ikaruga, I like it for what it is, and while it's undoubtedly the most well-known shoot 'em up that the Dreamcast has, I wouldn't call it the best.

IMO, the best would be a toss-up between TriZeal, Psyvariar 2: The Will To Fabricate, and Zero Gunner 2.
