I prefer to not play on PC wherever possible, unless it's a point n click or something.

The Lost Vikings: Any opinions on whether this game is better on SNES, Mega Drive or GBA?

Genesis/Mega Drive version is considered the best console port. But it almost requires a sixbutton controller to be fun.

The SNES version is not bad, but does have the advantage of having Lost Vikings 2 on the console.

GBA port looks good and is reasonably affordable. I'll be getting that one.

I disagree, fasty. The SNES version is the original and best version.

The game feels tailor-made for the SNES controller, with the L/R button Viking-switching. I prefer the SNES audio too.

Sounds like you get a Retron5, the Genesis version, and a SNES controller.

Dont get me wrong, I prefer the SNES version, but most people go Genesis. HG101 even states it:

It also received extra stages.
