This Game is HARD! Triggerheart Exelica! One Super Difficult Bullet Hell Shmup on NAOMI / Dreamcast

[@jcchaconjr]

Love this game! I have both the Dreamcast version, not to mention THE Enhanced for PS2… Quick tip - if you momentarily stop firing, you will attract/collect the golden nuggets that the enemies are releasing, which helps increase your multiplier in the upper left hand corner. EDIT: Gah! Fixed a few typos… also, based on another comment, I forgot that I had also purchased the THE port that was released on Xbox360, which if I’m not mistaken, is still BC with Xbox Series consoles.

Haha got a couple copies I see

@@VideoGameEsoterica Shhh, let’s not talk about the “not so ethical” NAOMI copy I have to run with Demul… 😅

[@VideoGameEsoterica]

Hahaha

Oh god, I did all the achievements in this game on xbox 360. It was the most agonizing fun i had in ages, wanted to play it again, seems I need a switch, ps5 dont have it :(

[@themblan]

I can't wait to play this on Mars

[@VideoGameEsoterica]

Maybe one of these days

To me, the PS2 version is the definitive port. It’s a shame the new version (probably uses XBLA code) stripped away the story mode found in the PS2 version. Was it because of issues? Who knows. But regardless, I’m happy to see the game back because this game is awesome. And I also envision Neptunia crossovers with Exelica!

[@VideoGameEsoterica]

Odd they took some story out

[@beingsupersonic7499]

I also get my arse handed to me by bullet hells mostly but I bloody love em for the sense of achievement you mention! I’m considering picking this up on the Switch. Also, I like Shienryu by Warashi🤘🏻

I can get close to 1CC on a few but mostly they destroy me too

[@Ragesauce]

FIRST!

[@VideoGameEsoterica]

First to watch me suffer

Cool vid as usual, i only played on DC myself, i guess that is the only thing that wasn't clear in this video, how does the dc version compare to the Naomi one? As for hardest bullet hell....all of them is a bit of a bad answer but i feel DDP DOJ scores pretty high. Also had some fun with Progear recently but i think the stage 2 boss literally made me scream ;)

[@VideoGameEsoterica]

Honestly they are pretty close to 1:1

[@METR0lD]

I played this one on my Xbox 360 back in the day. And yeah, it's super hard (super heart!?)!

[@VideoGameEsoterica]

Lol dad joke

I love this game. The Dreamcast version has a tate option that looks great on a big sideways CRT. I like to capture large enemies and swing them like a battle axe through swarms of small enemies.

[@VideoGameEsoterica]

It’s nice they included TATE in the menu

[@therealquinnzack1819]

I used to have the Dreamcast version, it was actually the first shooter I ever beat but it did not make it easy😎

[@VideoGameEsoterica]

Def NOT easy

[@PopeTheRevXXVIII]

This game was expensive not just because of the game but it wouldn't load past the first stage so I had to buy a refurbished GD Rom drive and that was around $80 Yeah there's a reason this game has infinite credits

[@VideoGameEsoterica]

You certainly aren’t getting very far if they limited you to just 4

[@PopeTheRevXXVIII]

I want to say the 360 version limits credits but I don't really remember. Every version after the Dreamcast version changes something

[@VideoGameEsoterica]

Shmups so often end up with so many releases with slight variances. Hard to keep track of them all

[@SolCresta3405]

I got this game for Exelica and Crueltear~
