<p>Seriously: I love this game. Many years ago we gave names to the swarms of enemies. There&#8217;s the snails, the swallows, the figs, the peanuts&#8230; The trick with them all is, you have to use an aftermarket controller that has a turbo shooting button. I&#8217;ve got my original NES console, a super controller, and this game in storage somewhere, and after spending 500 Wii credits (US$5) to buy it all over again in this form, I&#8217;m embarrassed to say how much I&#8217;ve spent in peripherals just to play the damn thing properly.</p>
