I played the original years ago and had a great time, and saw this was on sale for under 5 bucks and figured it could be a fun nostalgia trip after watching the Netflix show last month and re-watching the movie a couple weeks ago. Did not realize the re-release was very buggy until I started playing and the controls were noticeably stiff. So stiff I actually thought there was a problem with my joycon until I played some other games and they ran just fine. When the controls weren’t an issue it was genuinely a very fun game and all the charm was still there. Can’t say it’s “not” worth 4-5 dollars, but there are probably much better games you can get for that price. Just really sad they butchered what should’ve been a home run here.
