Do you remember those classic side-scrolling/vertical-scrolling shooters where your only objective was to stay alive and blow up as many things as you possibly could? Well, I pulled it out and dusted it off to give it a shot on the Super Nintendo. I originally bought the game for Sega Genesis, but I found out they made it for the SNES as well. I've officially played through and beaten both, and for the most part they're quite similar. The SNES version seems to be easier, and not quite as graphically-intense as the Genesis version. As gamers from that era know, the SNES had more colors to use, but it ran at a slower clock-speed than the Sega Genesis.
The controls are nearly identical, and other than the graphics and some different sound effects, they're the same exact game with the same bosses. If I had to pick between the two, I would go with the Genesis version since it has prettier graphics and doesn't have any slowdown when there is a lot of action on the screen. It may difficult to pick up either of those games, but you may be able to find them in the bargain bin at Electronics Boutique or online at E-Bay. If you liked those classic shooters with non-stop action, you'll like Raiden Trad!
