I cant believe noone has reviewed this yet.At the time of its release it was hailed as one of the best games for the SNES. Today it stands the test of time as one of the best games ever.Hopefully Nintendo will come out with an SNES compilation disc with this game as one of the features.

ok so some people are hating cause they think this isnt like the best game ever.. but it really is good.. i havent played since i was like 7 and i still think about it... so i had to go out and get it! its easy to play but still challanges you.. whether your 5 or 65 this game is worth checking out! i say its like mario num two w/ an island twist... i think this is a game the whole family can have fun w/...

This is a great sidescroller game in which you throw weapons at your enemy and collect fruit. it is on a tropical island and has tropical style music (calypso style) The only bad thing about it is that it is not as fast as the 8-bit counterpart but still enjoyable. Gotta love the skateboard! It is sometimes difficult but enjoyable. I highly recommend this game 10/10

I know, I know... you couldn't save in the 80's either with original Nintendo. However, as an adult, video games are a relaxing way to end the evening. I'm now spoiled by the modern games, and if I can't save, I'm not interested! :)

The review before this one really pumps this game up like it's Yoshi's Island or something. Yeah, it's cool and worth your while but let's think about some 5 stars games for SNES like Yoshi's Island, Zelda: A Link to the Past, Secret of Mana, Donkey Kong Country 1,2 & 3, Super Mario World, & Super Castlevavia. Is this game really on a 5 star level? No. I don't mean to downgrade a decent game. But some reviewers give away 5 star ratings like candy. When in fact it's just a run of the mill 2-D side scroller. Nothing special like the other titles I listed above. In fact Joe & Mac for SNES is simular but much better. Come on people be atleast a little picky. I take your reviews to advisement.

This was ONE OF THE WORST GAMES i've ever seen in my life next to Operation Europe and Populous. If your curious, thinking this looks like mario, well its not. Far from such Greatness as Donkey Kong or mario. i played this game for 20 mins the day i got it and aint touched it since. The Nes versions of Adventure island are alot better and more fun than this game. Buy them, But Please, unless you truly wish to own it for being an SNES version of the NES Classic, dont buy it. its nothing like it. It is an oversized half naked fat man that resembles nothing to the Classic Mr. Higgins. Your nowhere near as small as you used to be on the NES and your hathcets just dont throw like they used to. this game was definately made on a low budget and quickly produced for Quick Income. However, i consider it one of the Few SNES Flops. The only reason it truly sold was because people thought it was going to be like the original NES Version, only to find out when they got home teary eyed that ITS NOT. And it definately aint worth good ends neither. When you jump on the game He looks as though he's been busted by the police or going in to convulsions or something... Rather confusing exactly WHAT it looks like hes doing. The Graphics are good, but the controls are not smooth and Gets Repetitive extremely fast, Leadin to Boredom, and eventually getting trashed.

The gameplay is horrid, the graphics sucks for SNES and it's just very very boring to play.
