Things that are more or less shooters, more or less classic, that I'm aware
of on PSX:

Williams Arcade's greatest hits (US)
Sinistar, Robotron, Defender, Defender II

Arcade's greatest hits The Atari collection 2 (EUR)
Millipede

Capcom generations (EUR, 4 discs)
Disc 1: 1942, 1943, 1943 kai
Disc 4: Commando, Mercs, Gunsmoke

Namco museum vol. 4 (JP)
Assault

Namco museum vol. 2 (JP)
Xevious, Gaplus, Grobda

Raiden (Raiden DX and Raiden Project?)

Einhaender

Raystorm

Project X2

R-Type collection

R-Type delta

Darius-G

Strikers 1945 (soon to be released)

My favorites are Raiden and Gaplus. I haven't tried them all though. I
think most of these are not easy to find. I'm sure there's more detail
about the Namco museum series in different places of the web.
For more details just ask :)
