Psikyo Shooting Stars Alpha includes 6 classic shoot'em ups from the old Psikyo, not all of them with the same quality, but not dislike having them all collected in this collection, and in Bravo, the next collection that is on its way. The compilation has been compressed in two parts instead to the three Asian versions, but the extras of the Gallery mode have been lost, They are not included in Western editions. If you are a huge fan of shoot'em ups, it is the perfect opportunity to get to know the Psikyo classics, and vertical scroll games come with the option of playing them in TATE mode, which improves the experience completely.

Psikyo Shooting Stars Alpha is a fantastic compilation in terms of quality, packing five outstanding games and one good game into a single package. While it’s depressing that none of the games have any sort of history features or in-depth manuals, I was pleased to see that this compilation offers a great value compared to buying each game by itself on the eShop, and having the whole Strikers series in one place makes it a really great holdover until Strikers 2020 launches this year.
