USG:
People made a big deal about how crazy it was to see Sonic the Hedgehog on Nintendo systems in the days following Sega's move from first- to third-party status. But was it really that shocking? Sonic had already flirted with other first parties when he showed up as a Neo Geo Pocket Color launch title, and those Sonic Advance games were ultimately just an extension of that.
"The 3D Classics collection is already relatively composed and could not be complete without Gunstar Heroes. Cited by many as one of the best games ever, it's easy to see why, even taking into account the standards of today."
Nintendo Insider writes:
3D Gunstar Heroes may be an old game, but this 3DS update has made this game feel incredibly fresh. It's not for everyone, but if you're looking for a challenge and something with a great retro feel then you won't find much better on the Nintendo 3DS.
Offers perfect controls, nonstop fun, and remains one of the best action games ever made.
