And is it easier to see shit in this game on the SwanCrystal? Because half of the time I'm getting killed by bullets I can't see thanks to the completely shit screen.

The SwanCrystal uses what is basically an identical design to the SwanColor. But the screen is a *major* improvement. Still, I've been planning on getting a backlit Crystal (from the aforementioned mash-mods) ever since I picked up my copy of JSS. Its well-worth it, the game is absolutely amazing.

How is the screen an improvement? Is it easier to see things on the screen? If not I guess I'll just sell the SwanCrystal as well and buy a modded SwanCrystal... JS is nigh on impossible for me to play for score due to me dying at least 3-4 times a run due to bullets I absolutely could not see.

Holy crap, for once jp and I agree on something.

Somebody check the horizon for approaching horsemen.

Heh, I didn't even realized we disagreed that often. Then again, almost everyone on this board disagrees with me, so... all the disagreement kinda blends together after awhile.

I'm afraid not bro. I was TOTALLY expecting to get JS, dislike it, and sell it ASAP to help pay for some other stuff. But holy fuck, whoever made it apparently is the only person/team that understands how a handheld shmup should be done. Each level being 30 seconds or less really makes it so that even after I die I stop and think about playing it again, unlike Nanostray, Steel Empire, etc.

Honestly, JS is the only way a handheld shmup should be done as far as I'm concerned. Great for picking up and playing and not too time consuming.

I'd like to know as well-I thought that the SwanCrystal was the only version of the Wonderswan that you could even play this on.
