older shmups bullets aren't as readable as they started to become in the early to mid 2000s. skill issue, but I'm old and bad and need all the help I can get.

You know that you can change the enemy bullet color in the console ports? Even the saturn port has this.
And I think there's one arcade version that has colored bullets or at least a hack.
