The gameplay is the same, and the graphics are largely identical, with some sharper sprites and some ugly backgrounds on the Amiga.

I´m happy with any good C64 / AMIGA game released on the C64 VC. AMIGA is a beautiful dream, but still not reality.

I had so much fun with that game, too bad I lost the cartridge before I got the chance to beat the game.

The Amiga version would be fine, but why bother releasing a quite inferior version?

I was hoping for a good old beat 'em up game, especially given the US VC pre-release news. Double Dragon 2 would have been cool.

@ Tony, I agree, electronic artwork would be a nice addition to the VC, as would electronic versions of the user / instruction manuals that came with the original games. I'm sure it is feasible, especially given the price Nintendo charge for VC games!

Still at least its a decent game. Shame its the weakest game in the series though. This should have been released last week along with the Master System games to make it a proper Sega week

The ipod has a feature that allows album art, maybe Nintendo would also consider it.

Even the Master System original has a pretty good cover, a step up from the basic cartoon-on-grid design of most of the early games.

Next week I think we'll see 2 Neo games (Samurai Showdown & 1 of the Final Fight clones, probably Ninja Combat) and a SNES (Axelay).

Although that is 2 beat 'em ups, so maybe Beetle Adventure Racing to clone last months release.

Well, it's on Phantasy Star Collection on the GBA, too.

Bring on PS4, though.

I have it on GBA and PS2 though. Nebulus could be fun, good to hear new titles will keep coming for C64 too.

I can't believe this game had to land here. Oh well. Some may have played it on Sega Genesis/Mega Drive Collection (PS2/PSP) or on Phantasy Star Collection for GBA, but many Wii players will have a straight port on VC. (To Damo and Adamant: I have edited my comment in response...)

I really enjoyed the graphics and all the different environments you got to see. The generations-feature was exciting and story ok.
It's quite short though, even if you run through all generations (given you left save-points before a branch).

So... thank you N for putting this up on VC :-)
