For the casual player, it’s hardly noticeable but for returning players, you may notice a shift in tone. Not to mention, due to the GBA being a Nintendo branded system, any direct jabs at Nintendo IPs were made much less obvious. So the strip clubs in the game were removed, the gore was scaled back drastically, the crow’s cigarettes we’re removed, knives were removed from the game.

The change in the system meant that it had to be more family-friendly on release. The issue that some avid fans may find is the change in tone in parts of these games. For example, the movement was made more fluid with the removal of single tile movements and the addition of a run feature that doesn’t just play the game on a 2x speed. However, there are changes that make the game run smoother that fans will appreciate. The main bulk of the changes you will notice are related to the change in port from the Famicom to the GBA. In terms of gameplay, the two titles not differ an awful lot from the originals and in all honesty, that’s exactly what fans will want.
