| Good | Bad | - Excellent graphics especially in JP version
- Simultaneous two player mode
- Understanding Japanese is not required to play
| - No control over jump height makes platforming more difficult
- Some frustrating platforming
- High difficulty requires cheat code to fully enjoy
- Pressing down sometimes results in moving left or right which stands the player up making dodging bullets difficult
- Understanding Japanese is required to fully understand the story
- Default weapon does not have rapid fire
- Hard to avoid picking up unwanted weapon power-ups

| 9 | Incredibly challenging classic game with varied gameplay, amazing graphics, and the ability to play through with a friend. The Japanese Famicom version adds a lot compared to the North American version with cutscenes, animated backgrounds, and an improved title screen and is the better version to play. Using the Konami code makes the game a lot more fun. |
