Player's Review

"As a resourceful extra-terrestrial warrior, your mission is to save the peaceful Land of the Dragons from vicious creatures. Aided by the dragons, you must use every trick in the book and every skill at your command in order to stave off these alien invaders and save the day! In addition to its all-new 3D presentation, 3D Space Harrier also features touch control functionality and an Arcade Cabinet mode!"

A high quality conversion of the original arcade game from Sega and M2. This is the stand alone eShop version. The game was also part of the Japan only Sega 3D RePrint Archives (セガ3D復刻アーカイブス, Sega 3D Fukkoku Ākaibusu).

The 3Ds game plays just like the arcade running at 60fps. It also has some quality of life options to help you enjoy the game such as difficulty, lives and fire speed options as well as being able to continue from any level reached. You also get plenty of continues that doesn't really impact on the score. Special mode is enabled by default but im not entirely sure what it means. It could be enabling the final boss battle with 'Haya Oh' without the need of meeting unlock criteria.

I've always had a soft spot for Sega Superscaler games and have a 3ds just to play these 3D conversions and the 3D works really well which makes re playing these old games a fun and nostalgic experience.

In the video I play through the game with Normal default settings. Following that, a second play on Hard mode but not playing too seriously with cabinet motion enabled. This is a fun extra I like to play with and show off on the actual 3ds.
