I know that people who play a lot of later bullet hell games might be turned off by the older style of shmups but I do think anyone who wants to develop shmups should play some old Toaplan games (and not just Batsugun either (even though Batsugun is really good))
Hishouzame/Flying Shark, Kyuukyoku Tiger/Twin Cobra, Tatsujin/Truxton, Slap Fight MD, and Dogyuun are all worth a look. a lot of them have multiple versions, including regional arcade variants and console ports, and some are easier than others or have other changes, so do a bit of research
