Reception
Next Generation reviewed the Nintendo 64 version of the game, rating it three stars out of five, and stated that "new bosses and power-ups, hundreds of levels, and a decent nonstop techno soundtrack, and this tiny 4MB cart stands as proof that size isn't everything – it's what you do with it that counts, it still may not improve on the original, but it's much better than expected."[4]
