(05/30) Astro Warrior

This is from the Master System, which was the only console that had it.

This game is a solid vertical scrolling shooter with a space theme and some power ups to collect that give you more shots to fire with, some extra little trailing option ships that shoot more and some lasers too. There are some bosses to fight at the end of stages as well.

I recommend playing this one on the big screen because objects can be difficult to see when you fly over the bright platforms, but they're otherwise quite easy to see against the dark space. Another reason is because there's no turbo fire option and the handheld screen moves while you keep pressing the buttons to shoot, making it more difficult to focus on the action.
