Why they are still rereleasing the same game? I'm tired of game. I love EWJ but the franchise needs a new game, something more appealing and less recycled.
Even they could add more gameplay stuff, use new ideas or use a new enemy. Or just add a plot to understand EWJ story.
I'm not sure "yet another port" is equivalent to "reborn". I bought this for the GBA almost a decade ago. Oh, wait, no "face recognition game," though! Nevermind. I'll be buying this again.
But mind you it's being played on a smaller screen; SNES has a smaller resolution than Genesis.
Also the music is fucking terrible in the SNES. No, I'm not taking sides to any battle, I'm stating fact. Compared to what it was capable of the SNES port's music was fucking trash. Shiny stepped up their game in EWJ2, which both ports' soundtracks come pretty close.
@shalpp Trash compared to what, the Sega CD version? Take a song like What the Heck?, the orchestral samples sound damned excellent, easily trouncing the Genesis version and competing with the Sega CD very well. Also the Sega CD version featured redbook audio mind you, so some difference in quality should be expected.
Sure it was sample based but it sounded so weak. Like the deal with SF2 on the consoles.
it didn't use the right tracks for some levels, the sound effects weren't used properly, so much as to them using the Genesis's sound effects for all versions of EWJ2
@shalpp i seem to recall EWJ being originally developed for the Genesis first, and some article with Tommy Tallerico giving preference to Sega's sound hardware too in an old Gamefan, limited though it may be.
Great game, I played it every day when I was 4 or 5, awesome sound effects and graphics back then, this windows 98 game was the best I played... and I can't wait to play it again on my DSi and on my PS3 :D
I'm sad that they don't have the original soundtrack on this one. It also seems to lag at time for no apparent reason. I like the fact that it's moble but it's a poor excuse for a revamp on the original. I also own a DSI XL so it shouldn't be laggy as far as I know.
I wonder if ppl who didnt like this idea had ever figured out that InterPlay may be using this as a mean to get funds for EWJ 4. Besides, the DSiWare and WiiWare always have crazy titles like this one, both old and new.
@Spacemonkeymojo....not my intention, but how many times can you port the same crap? The port didn't sell on the advance and it won't sell to an even younger audience obviously. But whatever, keep getting excited about the same nonsense over and over again.
They included an easy mode for players new to the series. I heard the originals were incredibally hard, so this is probably a good intro to the game for new players interested in the series. They have an original mode which has the classic's difficulty.
I'm talking about broken animations, tasteless new graphic and lame sountrack remake. And most important - they make casual gameplay with all these stupid hints for retards.
It's not a game with a fun gameplay and strong art\animation anymore. It's a crap!
Look at snes and sega-CD ports of original megadrive EWJ game - they awesome! It's all because they done by strong professionals, not indian (or russian, canadian etc.) low-cost outsorcers.
Yes, I know. I'm talking not about all indian (or belarussian, or whatever) outsorcers, but about very low-cost ones. Its about production quality of cheap workers, not about racist things at all.
Your "EWJ saviors" just trying to make more money in lass time. They absolutely don't care about EWJ universe and the future of franchise. They using EWJ fans for those dtupid contests to make more money, and thats the only way how they care about fans.
I beleave, when you go to work for company like Gameloft, you will see how this things working. Now you just blinded by their PR system.
@LoOK1982 I'm old enough to have played EVEN Atari! Don't you think I ever played EWJ?! I played SNES version, Genesis version, GB version and PC version. I never played the 64 one because I don't like 3D games much. And who cares how they work it, what matters is that they are much better than some other companies that nerfs their mobile games way too much!

Im interested in what game was used for the port. The Sega CD release had CD quality audio. Would have been the best version to use.
Interested in it none the less though. If I didnt have the Sega CD version, I would probably get this.

Hey Gameloft. Stop killing Earthworm Jim!
As I can see, this is reborn of a totally broken and casual freak.
You must hire just one real animator who can fix timing in animations and just one art-director with a good taste.
And a good musician too, because this music remake dont have any drive. It sounds lame!
For now I think this DS port was created by some very low-cost workers from India.
