This is the ultimate side scrolling game. The levels are varied, the weapons are well done, the sounds and graphics are excellent, the enemies are levels are difficult, and the replay value is high.
However, there is one issue that may be considered a positive or a negative: this is a very difficult game. The enemies are tough. One wrong move and it's game over. It would be nice if the 'easy' mode was just that, but even that mode may drive casual gamers away.
Part of what makes it so very difficult is the lack of saving. Much like DS Contra, the main game is "all or nothing" - you make it to the end of each level or die trying, and your progress is not saved when you turn off the DS. Every time you must start the game over. Granted, once you finish a level you can play it standalone for practice, but it still can grueling to start at the beginning every single time.
Still, its a fun ride, and its obvious a lot of work and attention to detail went into the game.
