Great soundtrack, nostalgic aesthetic, simple gameplay - maybe not for everyone, but I will play games like this all day.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.

The difficulty is very fair, maybe even on the casual side, but I will say that it's better to have telegraphed bosses than to have BS difficulty for which NES is known for.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
10 of 83 sampled reviews raised it
Also, I want to give the devs credit for having some creative sub-weapons, such as shooting ghosts and frogs?
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
8 of 83 sampled reviews raised it
Nice authentically retro graphics, boppin' soundtrack and mostly smooth controls form the backbone of a game with plenty of varied stages and bosses.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
6 of 83 sampled reviews raised it
While the soundtrack would not be considered retro, I still really enjoyed it and the music complemented the pace of the game.
