I have Quack Shot. I believe a company teased a remake but it was cancelled. I think it was the company that made the Ducktales remake. I never played the Ducktales remake. Watched some on youtube. It looked nice. But there was something off about it that made me not purchase the game. Quack Shot is a good game though. It's like Disney mixed with Indiana Jones.
I have Maximo but don't like it that much. It was too easy. Passed on the sequel. I was going to get the PSP Ghosts n Goblins but checked a few videos and it didn't seem like the game for me. And the Japanese version which was the complete or final version never made it to the States. My favorites in the series are probably Ghouls n Ghosts on Genesis and the Super version on SNES. I finished both of those. I also have a Capcom collection with arranged tracks of some of the tunes. Those games are more balanced compared to the NES game.
I agree that the NES original was way too difficult. I don't think many kids noticed the patterns and some of those games were still way to cheap with the kills. If the game wanted those flying demons to kill you, you were getting killed. I can't remember if I finished that game. I remember being disgusted about having to play the levels twice. The idea of struggling to get to the final boss. Finally beating that guard and the game telling you that you have to go back to the beginning was one of the cheapest things ever. Thinking about it still makes me angry. And I think you needed the shield weapon for the final boss the second time around. Plus the shield was extremely difficult to use against those flying demons. Not as effective as the knife.
I decided not to get Resurrection because it does look like a best of the Genesis and SNES games. Plus a bit too cartoonish. Even though the games have humor with Arthur losing his armor and running around in his underwear. It shouldn't lose the dark horror nature of fighting these hell creatures. Which is something I feel in the videos I've seen of the game.
