07:48 - Part 2 Cons
10:02 - Overall

Pro
I like some of the retro look to the game (feels like if Ninja Gaiden was a 16-bit game)
Classic 2-D platforming (though not as frustrating as the NES Ninja Gaiden game was)
Now runs at 60fps

Cons
Difficulty spike might turn some folks away (though there is an assist mode)
No Switch 2 enhancement
