I stand by what I said originally: Shantae is great when you're in the dungeons, but annoying in the overworld. I'd say it's definitely worth looking at for the visuals though. The game is so ambitious that I have to wonder why they made it for the GameBoy in the first place. When the game released, the GameBoy Advance and the GameCube were already out for a year, too! I can only assume development took a really long time and the overall bad timing affected sales enough to get the sequel cancelled. Luckily, it's being revived now, so I might actually wait for that to keep playing the series in order.
Cool. Thanks for the info.
