    It's a nice and short game with a relaxed but streamlined pace, and a huge difficulty spike if you chose to get the true ending. Go for it.

    Fun game with added extras from the original. Also updated music again from the other 2 releases of the game. Own it on PC and 3ds as well.

    I'm a huge fan of 8 bit stuff, and this is beautifully crisp but classic feeling. Just getting into it, but really enjoying it so far

    Note: This game is not a long game. You can beat it in 5 hours or less. Even with additional challenges and bonuses, it won't take a long time to uncover everything. Even so, this is one of the best indie games with mass appeal. It's the simple "jump and shoot" mechanic that is termed "Metroidvania". There is not much exploration here (for secrets) and things are pretty much linear. Yet, it's fun for a few days. Plus, Nicalis packs this physical release with a "NES/GBA" style booklet and a mini music CD.

    Great new old school game. It has multiple endings to make you want to play again. I wish I would've played it when it first came out.

    This is a great platformer to play on the go! Good story as well, and interesting and unique mechanics for powering up your weapons.

    This game plays like an old school SNES game, which is a good thing (to me, at least). Only downside is that the game is a bit short, but it's priced accordingly.

    Great re-release that can be played on the go. If you've beat it already might not be worth rebuking unless your a collector.

    There are no more copies with pre-order bonuses. Thus it is not worth more than $15. This is what you can pay on STEAM.
