If you're hard up for money, you can always save, quit, then reload. All of the treasure chests will be replenished.

Get both and Master Blaster Zero. Be happy!Planning to get my switch this week if I can find neon. Zelda wasn't enough to get me on board but wonderboy sure as shit is.
Argh, looks like an ISP outage in my area. Guess I can teather my Switch to my phone?
Never played the original but from the look of it it's an amazing remake and it plays perfectly on Switch, love it!
And I'm amazed at the art, so much love is poured into this title, Nintendo should hire these guys for some NES remakes, this game looks absolutely wonderful and being able to swap to the original is really cool too
Is it easier than it should be on normal though? Feels like I just started and I've already made my swap to piranha man with no deaths and I've never played it before. I played through Wonderboy in Monster World a few years ago and nearly pulled all my hair out from the brutal challenge.
Edit: already made my swap to piranha man, not lizard man, lol
It's way, way easier for some reason.
How is it easier? I remember the original was pretty brutal at the beginning with 2 hearts.
Good luck finding them all
Enemies hit way way softer, money drops in huge amounts and prices reduced for all gear.
Checked earlier on the SMS version. Way way harder.
That's not the case. Perhaps you checked with different settings?
Enemies hit the same, money drops are the same (but there are slightly more items drop) and equipment prices are the same.
There is a way to increase money drops but that was already in the original. The main difference in Normal mode is that you get a little more life when restarting than the normal 1 heart. The price of consumable items (boomerang) in the secret shop in the village was however reduced but they are still too expensive to be really useful (changed more "absurdly expensive" to "expensive")
I like the game so far but I'm very frustrated by hitboxes and weird controls. It just doesn't "feel" right. Also, this game explains nothing. I have no idea what I'm doing or where I should go next?
Chances are you should go down into the well. And yes, the pathing is a bit cryptic. There's usually only one little roadblock that requires a specific ability in order to unlock an entirely new area.
Now I'm halfway with three.

Definitely interested to know what the real deal is with this (I'm planning on getting it later on PS4 either way, but until then have work to deal with). Does the remake default to easy or something? I read in the Eurogamer review they mentioned a few new difficulty options.
Love your avatar bock.
Europe got it around 10am, so maybe expect it to hit the US around a similar time.
This game makes me want a lovingly hand-drawn remake of MWV.
That one was my childhood. =)
Hell why stop there; imagine them tackling stuff like Alex Kidd or Psycho Fox! I want this dev to succeed so badly, heh.
no reimagining, the original had FM on the cart. Been playing it with FM on my Mark III (via cart converter) for years.Man, this looks gorgeous on the Switch's screen :3 I love the extensive retro aesthetic options too, I had no idea there was an sound option re-imagining the original music through the Mark III's FM expansion.

Tempted to buy this on PS4 but I'm going to wait until later in the year when I buy a Switch.
I keep pressing ZR all the time to see what areas used to look like. The new graphics are so beautiful, though.
Really think I will go with the updated art and old sounds and music for my first play through
Love how you can switch them all on the go so easily.
