I'm having problems but it has more to do with the difficulty. I can't beat the "Beautiful Assassin" boss(es) without dying. There are three targets: the boss and two female warriors.
Pretty good? That's putting it lightly. I've already decided I'm going to download Gates of Thunder so, reluctantly, I'm going to put Ninja Gaiden II on hold for now.
It's good to see Turbo CD games come out for the VC. This gives me some hope that not only will I finally be able to play Dracula X: Rondo of Blood but we may get more CD based games in the future.
I guess I'm the only one who was really disappointed by this game after playing the first game. My biggest issues with this game were the brutal difficulty and the lackluster soundtrack (what happened!). I remember this game getting scores like 6.0 when it first came out on the SNES. Later, to my surprise, the GBA version gets much better scores even though it looks like the exact same game. What's different?
It's definitely linear because there are places you can't access until you're at a certain level. On the other hand, you can access multiple areas at once if you have enough experience.

Re: Pokemon Snap
I've never understood the appeal of riding around in a rail-car snapping pictures of Pokemon...
Re: EU VC Releases - 23rd November - The King of Fighters '94
KoF 94 is a great game but I'm hoping we get Samurai Showdown first.
Re: EU VC Releases - 16th November - Double Dribble
Ouch.
Re: US VC Releases - 12th November - Axelay (+ Worldwide Mii Contest Channel)
Someone has obviously never played Axelay.

Re: Super Air Zonk: Rockabilly Paradise
This game was supposed to come out in the US last month! What happened?
Re: US VC Releases - 5th November - Super Mario Bros 3
What the heck happened to Super Air Zonk?!
Re: US VC Releases - 22nd October - Ninja JaJaMaru-kun
Well, I didn't get Ninja Gaiden II last week. Maybe I'll get it this week.
Re: New WiiWare game - Pop
@RMA: You can delete system updates?
Re: Gate of Thunder
I wouldn't say that its Lost Levels or Ninja Gaiden hard but you're not going to beat the game in one sitting.
Re: Ninja Gaiden II: The Dark Sword of Chaos
I approve of this game. I still have the Nintendo Power poster back from when it first came out on the NES.
Re: US VC Releases - 15th October - Gate of Thunder
Pretty good? That's putting it lightly. I've already decided I'm going to download Gates of Thunder so, reluctantly, I'm going to put Ninja Gaiden II on hold for now.
Re: Metroid Prime 3 Preview Channel hits Europe
Be honest. How many of you already downloaded the previews from gametrailers (or another site)?
Re: Gate of Thunder
SOLD!! I've got 800 points ready to go on monday for my first TG-16 purchase EVER!
Re: Dress up your Wii remote, for free!
They look kinda weird but their free so why not.
Re: US VC Releases - 1st October - Two Japan-only games
Ooooo!! Looks like I need to get more Wii points.
Re: Japanese Virtual Console list - October 2007
It's good to see Turbo CD games come out for the VC. This gives me some hope that not only will I finally be able to play Dracula X: Rondo of Blood but we may get more CD based games in the future.
Re: TurboGrafx-CD games for the VC?
I'm still wondering if this TurboGrafx-CD news is confirmed...
Re: Art of Fighting
You pretty much have to play like a scrub to beat the AI in this game.
Re: TurboGrafx-CD games for the VC?
As much as I wanted it, I did not see this coming. At least not until they did something about the external memory support.
Re: Neo Geo confirmed for US Virtual Console
It's a hell of a lot better than the $150~$200 price tags of the game cartridges.
Re: Sin and Punishment
Wow, this game looks crazy hard! I must play Sin&Punishment. I must!!
Re: Kirby's Avalanche
Another Kirby game?! How many Kirby games are there on the SNES?
Re: Super Metroid
This is a no brainer for me. My only regret was not buying it when it first came out on SNES.

Re: Axelay
I approve of this game! Great graphics, superb soundtrack, this is a must buy.
Re: Games we hope never get released on the Virtual Console
Yep, Rise of the Robots was one of the worst games I ever played. The other was Total Recall for the NES.
Re: Kirby's Dream Course
It's nice to finally see gameplay footage. Is this going to continue in future updates?
Re: Japanese Virtual Console list - July 2007
Still no Neo-Geo...
Re: US VC Releases - 25th June - SF2 Turbo
Nothing for me this week. Already bought SFII Turbo and F-Zero X when they first came out and I have better versions now (arcade and GC).
Re: Super Turrican 1 & 2 coming to the Virtual Console
That's sweet! I've heard great things about Turrican but I've never played it. Same with Shining Force.
Re: Europe VC Releases - 22nd June - Mega Man
Wow, you never got Mega Man AC in Europe?! That sucks. Did you miss out on Capcom CC too?
Re: Zelda II: The Adventure of Link
To Bass X0: Actually, I heard they fixed the save system so that it does save your exp. IDK if they did it for all versions though.
The more I think about it the more I want to download this game...
Re: Europe VC Releases - 1st June - Sega goodies
lol I always thought it was GRAAAND UPPEEERRRR!!!
