WHO ELSE HAS PLAYED THIS GREAT GAME?

Awesome awesome game :(

I played it!!!you're right,it's awesome,It's been underrated...I hope there will be a new version for ps3 or any console

A truly "legend" of the NES. Great gameplay & music. So bad it doesn't have a sequel.

Still have never gotten the hang of this. I can get past the first shmup sequence, but when I get to the RPG/dungeon crawl part, I get completely lost(even with a map, so no guy jokes please, lol) and have no idea what to do where. Might have to resort to a walkthrough before long...
