What would you put in a dedicated SHMUP cab?
Nephasth:
Galaga and Space Invaders aren't really SHMUPs IMO. But they are the forefathers of SHMUPs...

Cynicaster:
Mentioning DoDonPachi in threads like this is almost becoming cliched, but every time I play that game I'm reminded that it deserves the hype.
Cybattler and Gunlock (aka Rayforce) are two shoot-em-ups that I think are really cool but don't seem to get mentioned very often. Both games feature mechanics that are "non-standard" in the genre, which helps differentiate them a bit from the homogeneous masses.
harveybirdman:
I'd totally rock Gunlock in my cab. Love the lock on feature.
Cybattler is good, I should devote some more time to it to see if it grows on me.. I seem to always find myself, perhaps unfairly, comparing it with Brave Blade.
