Rails shooters play a very important role - they are the pick-up-and-play hardcore game. No other game is as simple and intuitive to learn.
If I have a friend over who wants to play a game, s/he often doesn't have the time or patience to invest the 2-3 hours required to pick up the control scheme. That's not a problem with rails shooters.
This funciton shouldn't be understated.
