A remaster of TwinBee
This vertical-scrolling arcade game was originally available only on the Famicom system in Japan. Now, for the first time ever in North America, fans can play this classic shooter with a new 3D look. Guide the TwinBee spacecraft as you dodge and destroy waves of aerial and ground enemies. If you get hit and lose both of your ship's arms, find an ambulance for repairs quickly. Shoot through the clouds to uncover bells. Collect the bells for extra points, or continue to shoot at them to gain different upgrades for your ship. Additional power-ups can also be collected from the ground. Fly high in the sky with your anthropomorphic spacecraft in this new version of a classic.

I’ve been playing this on and off for a while now. Whenever I had a couple minutes to spare, I’d just pick up and play a bit of it. I think this 3D classics version is definitely the ultimate version of the original TwinBee. I’ve played the arcade version, the NES and this version. I know this version is based off thr NES version, but there are small changes that make this a more addictive and fulfilling experience. Being able to always see your lifes is nice. I feel like I die less in this version. It of course looks nicer and having the ability to save is nice. My biggest gripe with all of the original TwinBees is that whenever you die, it feels almost impossible to surmount a comeback, regardless of how many lives you have. If you don't have the upgrades, it can be hard to work in the frantic and fast enemy layouts of the later levels. Still the best version of a pretty good arcade shooter.

Pues esta en 3D y ya, poco agregaron, pero es tan disfrutable como el original.
This would be real neat if I gave even half a shit about TwinBee
Incredibly basic, but enjoyable.
imagine how much better the 3D Classics line up would have been if half of the library wasn't shmups and a shitty ass game
