Screenshots:

Really emulates that good old NES feel and style.

Delivers a challenging game play with leveling as well as Boss battles.

Outstanding Value at 4.99 you won't find more content in the genre.

Awesome characters to play with, as well as enemies to learn their attack styles.

Music and graphics are completely accurate to the 8bit NES version.

I really had no complaints with this one at all. It ran flawlessly, no bugs what so ever. It looked and felt like the games I used to enjoy, and still do from time to time on my NES. It was a near perfect experience for me. BUT we always have to have something to put here so let's just say It may be to challenging for inexperienced or young gamers. Good thing there is codes so you have no excuse not to enjoy this modern retro masterpiece.

OVERALL IMPRESSION:

I can't stop playing this. I grew up on the NES , and this really took me right back to those days. If this had been released in it's day it would have been a hit then as well no doubt. It looks and sounds like a original Nintendo product. It really answers the call for that old school NES challenge also. For fans of the NES and just retro games period this is a can't miss. You will certainly want to add this one to your collection. I'm giving it a 9.2 out of 10.
