I've always heard fantastic things about the original on SNES. Way ahead of it's time. Solid game. Great launch title. Building sim and side scroller action game.

Apparently the second one ditched the building mechanics and stuck to the side scroller action adventure. Also a good game but lacking because of the building portion being pulled.
I bet you this is Square testing the water to see if a new Actraiser game would sell. Be interesting to see if it works.
