Awesome game! Worth getting. This revival of the Hammerin Harry series is very impressive. Great graphics, fun level designs and wacky enemies to face.
This game is completely wacky, but I love it. It may all be in Japanese, but it is fantastic game none the less. If your into Japanese, then its not much of a problem then.
This game is hard though, but it's one of the best side scrollers ive played in years. Unlockable costumes and all of the weirdness is really entertaining.
The only weird problem is the frame rate. It will just drop unexpectedly. Thats because the game is pushing a lot of animations and background animations, and the 2D stages are not just stale pre-rendered background, there's so much gorgeous animation to take in. Definately one of IREMs best games.
I say pick it up if you love Japanese games, love IREM, or happen to like the Hammerin Harry series. I doubt this will ever come state side considering that there's a new Hammerin Harry anime series as well that coinsides with the game.

Known as Hammerin' Harry on NES in America. Pretty fantastic revival of the series here, side scrolling beat 'em up. Frame rate mysteriously suffers a lot though.
Levels are fun, music is catchy, lots of different costumes to change into (changes your attacks and stuff). Asian version comes with a very handy English manual explaining the menu screens.
