Both versions was a valiant attempt tbf. But it was always going to be a huge ask to replicate the arcade game on the C64, particularly given tight deadlines back then. I can understand the reasons for both approaches, which meant sacrificing different aspects. Packaging both games together as a single release was at least a nice consideration for the C64 gamers, giving slightly better vfm. Somewhat of a damage limitations exercise. It's still better than the two terrible versions of Double Dragon, which were released separately by different publishers.

Great looking game, almost 16-bit graphics quality.

Back in the 80s, I used to call the company Crapcom for their terrible home ports. Yes, they put out some good games, but a lot of the home ports of their games were terrible. I did like the US version of Street Fighter though. It wasn't great, but I thought the graphics were nice.

16bit games should be developed on 16 or + machines. Those conversions are just crap. 100000 times better international karate
