Pulseman! (Now on Virtual Console!)

So Pulseman is now on Virtual Console. Anyone here played it or have a copy of the Japanese Mega Drive game? I know the game quite expensive and I believe its supposed to be a pretty good platformer, but thats all I know.

I'm considering picking it up on VC as my first digital distribution purchase of any kind, what do you guys think?

I played it on an emulator once, but I absolutely hate emulators so I didn't play it for incredibly long, despite its quality. What I played of it was very, very good. It was like a mix between Sonic and Mega Man, which is a fantastic combination.

I played it and liked it. I was sad to find out it was never really released though, at least not in the states. If my memory serves, it was only on sega channel officially, but a quick google search will find anyone who wants it a copy.

I played this a while ago on KEGA Fusion. Great, great game. It;s like a mix between Sonic the Hedgehog, Rayman, and Mega Man.

The game is developed by GameFreak, the same developers of Yoshi, and the Game Boy/DS Pokemon games.
