Whereas I was able to complete it flawlessly on my Megajoy, this is damn hard on the 3DS. I do have a couple of issues with this re-release, mainly due to the package. I have a lot of difficulty seeing certain elements of the game on low brightness, mainly the star background and certain fast enemies. I can pump up the brightness, but I my eyes are sensitive to bright screens, so it's a little inconvenient.

The thing that annoys me the most is that the black borders around the screen are the same colour as the black background in the game. This has lead to to a lot of deaths where I have been zoned out on the left side of the screen, just to be blatted against some piece of scenery I didn't realise was close close to the screen boundary. Definitely not so much a flaw either, but at least some border would have prevented a bit of convolution in these instances.

Finally, the hidden 1-up at the end of stage 2 only seems to like to trigger about 25% of the time for me, which I don't remember from my previous play sessions of this game at all.

It's good though.
