Don't think I'll bother with this since I only found the original on the 3DS 'alright.' The series has somewhat slowly lost its way since the days of RE4 in my opinion.
I'm desperate for some quality titles coming to the Wii U: this isn't it. I think it has the potential to be a much better system than the Wii...
Pikmin 3 can't come soon enough.

Excellent news. I bought Kirby's Adventure for 30p, so will purchasing Kirby Superstar if I can get it for the discounted price. Will see what it tries to charge my credit card first: the full or discounted price.

@Spuratis Haha... Here's hoping pal.

@theadrock13
All valid points.

@Reddaye They were released on the Sega Saturn on one disc, although loading times were frustrating and it only released in Japan. They were still very playable, apart from a little Japanese text on in game menus. A pretty pricey game to import nowadays.

@Peach64 Spot on. They have failed to move with the times and are sadly a rip off on all of the product lines they sell nowadays. You are, indeed, sane.

Just completed demo: not at all bad. Will look into pre-orders now.

Great news, let's hope it's a sign of things to come!

This is one of the few 3DS titles I'm going to pre-order (along with Luigi's Mansion that I'm still waiting for). I can't wait. Great news that the combat will have an old school vibe.

Simple: don't buy it. I'm sick of being treated like this, especially in the year 2013. I will make my feelings known by not purchasing this or any other game that's running at 50hz: GAMES WEREN'T INVENTED TO BE RUN AT THIS SPEED. Europeans shouldn't have to put up with this rubbish any longer... 17% slower! I'd rather spend the extra cash and buy an old US/JAP NES/Famicom... Don't care if it's only 30p.

Lovely game that looks alot like Syphony of the Night. Along with the just mentioned and Castlevania IV, this is one of the best Catlevania's ever made. Love the little secrets and multiple route through the game: they all add depth and replay value, as does the choice of two characters. This is easily the most polished and best PC Engine title (TurboGrafx), and the system has an abundance of GRADE-A titles!

I have struggled with this game for so long, the final boss is so hard!!!

Just bought this and completed on easy. Really enjoyed it, so going to tackle normal mopde now! Best shooter I've played on the Genesis/Megadive. It's VERY similar to Spriggan on the Pc Engine/TurboGrafx,another amazing shooter from Compile, but without the cinemas and CD soundtrack. Shooter fans should buy immediately, up there with the mighty Soldier Blade...
Shame the game is 50hz in Europe though, hence gameplay is slower and the screen is 'letterboxed'. Why have Nintendo/Sega done this??? Cho Aniki and Mario RPG (both of course un-released in Europe) and many other titles aren't so why make a great game less great? Annoys me, it's like the 16bit era all over again...

If you like shooters this is well worth getting. It is easier than the too tough Super Star Soldier and has better visuals. Not as good as Soldier Blade, yes, but few shooters reach that calibre.

If anyone likes this get Blazing Lazers, the first in the Turbo Grafx's famed 'Soldier' series. It's not quite as good as this gem (in my humble opinion), but it's a pretty close thing. THE TURBO GRAFX WAS THE KING OF SHOOTERS!!! Lets hope a few more of those Jap only PC Engine classics make it to the West.

I get confused with all the Wonderboy titles...There's some out on the Master System, Mega Drive and the Turbo Duo...Then some are remakes of earlier ones (in the case of the Turbo Grafx/Duo). Bloody confusing. Want to buy this or Dragon's Curse. Which one's best??

I agree with Pocketim, this looks better than the first game. You have to play Neutopia I to get the most out of this great sequel I feel. This has more colourful graphics and better controls than the first. I love Zelda 3, so it's brilliant to have two games of a similar ilk available for download on a Nintendo system, especially when they're this good!!!
