A sequel to an 80s arcade sidescroller on the NDS, it does a pretty good job at sticking to that formula while evolving it in a variety of ways that don’t intrude but add to the experience. Only real issue is that the skills you get at the end of levels seem to be random, or at least have pretty obscure unlock methods, but that’s not too big of a deal. The story is forgettable, but it's a fun side-scroller anyways.
