unplayable couthedman92 what are you talking about is your controller not plugged in.

soulblazer and Terranigma please

to be honest, with my pea brain, I have no idea what all the fuss is about I found it to be quite an average shmup.

Popfull mail

If the sega CD ever does come we will Probably have to pay extra for it.

Im thinking about getting one myself

how hard is this game

how hard is this game is it harder than the original

so is it 500 or 400 points

3. a parodie of the star soldier series

I can't recall any of the problems as well

by the way whos kelvin?

looks easy

People say that collecting all of the melons gives the game more replay value but I found this to be a very tedious process that’s not worth doing.

Also Yoshi's Story isn’t the kind of game that can brag about getting a high score to your friends.

"All the games in the Hanabi Festival will stay forever, except for Super Mario Bros. 2 (Japan), which, as NoE puts it, is a "collectors' item" and won't return after this month (At least for a while, I guess)."

How can a downloadable game be a collectors item.

is this like Space Harrier if so I will skip this one since Space Harrier always gives me a headache after 5-10mins.

I have herd that the Megadrive version had different music ( the same songs just arranged differently) which are considered worse.

Paper Mario was released in Europe it was just largely ignored.

Glad to say I have not played any of them.

well it seems to have atmosphere.

The edition of the pc engine mode is nice but this game is to short.

why does everyone keep calling this a beat em up when it looks more like a run and gun game.

Far better than Gunstar heroes there is a real sense of atmosphere in this game thanks to far better level design, you can store 2 weapons and can use bombs.

They were right about the piracy the Playstation was flooded with copied software towards the end of the 90s.

Has every one who reviewed this game played it (judging by some of your comments I don’t not think so).

By the way how is this version different from the Capcom classics version I mean is that based on the harder American or Japanese version.

I know about there being less slow down and no save state.

I could not really get into this ether all the levels seemed really flat and the game seemed to lack atmosphere.

It just seems to be about speed I would recommended contra 3 / super protector over this.

I think this game has not aged that well I mean the controls are tight but there is not that much variety in the stages.

"I wanted to write a small review to warn others from spending points on this mediocre title since it seems so strongly suggested here.

I have no idea why so many people seem to like this version. I have played just about every Castlevania and this, while it isn't the worst, it is far from a "great" game.

The music is OK, but it doesn't fit the game. Overall it is very monotonous and lulls you to sleep. Not bad, but it's not dark like most of the the Castlevania games tend to be.

The gameplay is just average. No better or worse then past generations. This is the first time you can hold your whip out and actually swing it around even after it has fully extended.

Overall this game is pretty boring and I would not recommend it. If you never played it and you're a big Castlevania fan, go ahead and get it. If you are on the fence, save your points/money and pass."

You sound as if you haven't got very far on the game yes the music is very slow paced on the first few levels but then the first few levels are very slow paced and very easy compared to the last levels.

When you get though the first few levels the gameplay and music are at far faster speed.

The game is very repetitive (you see the same areas way to much).

One of best RPGs I have played in my life.

well from what I have read the GBA has:

-2x the EXP
-3x the $$$
-a dash button for travel
-cut scenes
-different character art
-slightly different translation (I hear it has similar engrish to the SNES version)

Is this like mercs.

Weren't mission and California supposed to come out this summer?

I would like to give this a higher score but the lack of check points and often confusing weapon system mean I have to give it a lower score.

Its pretty bad but not the worst game ever.

Well the controls are better than castlevania you have to give it that.

one of the best games on the virtual console.

I actually think this is better than soldier blade its just very unfair both the music, weapon system(although the lack of bombs is annoying) and level design seem better.

wait this was released before doom wouldn't that make this the worlds first FPS.

"I want to see Zero Wing. :>"
I am sorry but only the european version has the all your base are belong to us line in

Dazza why does mean machines refer to this title as super mario bros 4.

/l\ T /l\ R I Duck Hunt is not a better game than f-zero x.

You should only get this game for the multiplayer the single player gets boring very quickly.

I preferred Diddy Kong racing for its single player mode but Mario kart 64 defiantly had a better multiplayer mode.

Dazza wouldn't this be a good game for a beginner due to easier difficulty.

Is Australia going to get 20+ new games at once or are they going to start having different release schedules than us.

The Zelda CD-I game don't count they are not real Zelda games.

"Also, there seems to be a bug in this version that makes you have to pick up heart pieces in the correct order or they won't appear! It didn't happen to me but I've read about it a few times."

It happened to me but if you go back and get the heart you missed you can still get all of the hearts.
