I'm honestly still quite skeptical. He hasn't put in enemy projectiles, explosions, multi-directional firing, or homing shots yet. Not to say you couldn't get something respectable that looks and feels like Gunstar Heroes running on the SNES, I just don't see you getting this level of action on the system:
And that video doesn't even have 2 players. Though Treasure did get a respectable version running on the Game Gear. So I would imagine something equal to that level of performance or in between that and the Genesis would definitely be possible.
As for porting Thunder Force IV, I don't even want to think about how awful it's soundtrack would end up sounding on the SNES. Hearing Thunder Force III's music done entirely with bad MIDI trumpets and flutes was horrifying enough.
