Alex Kidd’s floaty, slippery platforming may not be for everyone, especially those who didn’t get to grips with it the first time around.
SEGA is currently hosting a new sale on the Switch eShop. There are a number of SEGA Ages titles included, many of which are at their lowest price yet. Sonic Mania, Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz HD, and other games are also a part of the sale.
Games Asylum: "A remaster of SEGA’s Alex Kidd in Miracle World is imminent. If you’re wondering why this 2D platformer, dating back to 1986, is being plucked from gaming’s depths and being given a digital dust off – even gaining a collector’s edition with a bunch of goodies – then chances are you aren’t too familiar with the debut of SEGA’s pre-Sonic mascot."
No idea. Even as a kid I would much rather play Sonic or Mario games over Alex Kidd and I played anything back then and usually liked it. Not a Sega IP that I'm fond of. Now Kid Chameleon I like. Lol
Its a great game with some cool secrets/bugs in it.
Also the levels had great variety. I think thats why it stands out amongst the platformers of its time. Great music too.
I thought it was a decent game for the time. The remake/remaster is probably more tight with the controls and will be better for it.
SEGA is hosting a new sale across the Switch and 3DS eShops. Practically all of the companies games are included, including Hatsune Miku, SEGA Ages, Sonic, and Valkyria Chronicles.
