While the two playable characters don't differ mechanically, it's still a great opportunity to grab a pal and go rescue some neighbour-folks. Still, these porting gripes don't detract from what's still a rich, varied experience. There’s also a perpetual border on the screen, and it's - how to put this gracefully? - ugly, pointless and stupid. That isn’t the only oddity about this port – from what we could tell, you essentially launch straight into the game from its new menu, meaning you won’t be seeing the original title screen and character select, nor is there seemingly a way to enter passwords without starting the game and taking a Game Over.
