Could we please get some more SHMUPS on GOG please?

As a big shoot'em'up fan, it makes me sad you could count on your hands the number of games in the genre on GOG.

Recently companies like Degica and Nyu Media have been making a drive to get more of them available on the PC in the west, but the only example of that push that we have on GOG is the excellent Crimzon Clover. I know that both Degica and Nyu Media would be more then happy to make these available on GOG, so I'm not sure why GOG isn't keen - you guys allowed "Raiden Legacy" onto the platform, which is an rather poor emulation job of some classic games, while the incredibly highly regarded Mushihime-Sama is not here, so I assume it's not entirely predicated on quality.

If any fellow fans want to upvote some of the shmups on the wishlist, the following are just awaiting the OK from gog to make it onto the platform:

Thanks to anyone who read this semi-rant. :)

(Unlike the others, no idea if Final Form Games have any intention of bringing Jamestown to GOG, but it does look rather good!)

Since you made a rant, I'll make a rant, as well. Your list is lacking and [url=http://www.gog.com/wishlist/games/raiden_iv_overkill]Raiden IV: Overkill. Shame on you!

Whoa, a new Darius title is coming to PC? Gimme.

Oh, and don't forget Sine Mora, Darius Gaiden and RayStorm.

Yeah, I find GOG's lack of The Shmup's disturbing.

Also,

Can't wait for Touhou to hit western shores. I would gladly buy all of them.

Yup, we really need more Shmups here. To add to the list:

http://www.gog.com/wishlist/games/exceed_3rd_jade_penetrate_black_package

Though they are already available DRM-free in other places, including Steam.

Playism brought one to the west digitally.
Seems like they didn't actually bother translating it though. >_<

@ZarkonDrule:
Shame on you, your list doesn`t even contain Uridium and Xenon Megablast!! Shame on you!!!

Damn it,still need to play with fantranslations. If Konami wasn't such a cancer,I would love to buy Gradius or Parodius.

Just found this topic as an entry on the Feature wishlist.

Yep, it's intensely frustrating that GOG is turning away companies who are trying to get their games published, with extras, DRM-free because they're not popular enough. Such a sad turn from how this site started, catering to a niche and championing underdogs.

I really, really hope they have a change of heart and allow Degica and Nyu Media to release their shmups on GOG after all. I understand the need for curation, but those are all outstanding, professional games from companies who are trying to actively court the DRM-free crowd, and "it's not popular enough to be on our site" is such a crock.

Edit: And unlike the Raiden Legacy port, these are actually well done ports and not just mobile MAME in a terrible wrapper with bad settings.

As would I, although sim companies tend to be very fond of DRM. In the case of shmups, multiple companies have approached GOG to distribute their games and GOG turned them away.

Are you insinuating EA games is into DRM just because they tried to charge players for gas? :P
