- Game & Graphics - Other criticisms aside, the Game Boy version of Felix the Cat is an excellent, though abridged, port of its NES big brother. The graphics are virtually unchanged & the level designs have been expertly scaled-down for the smaller screen. The downside is that, like the NES version, it's pretty much a by-the-book platformer. You won't find any clever Mario-esk surprises or much in the way of replay value. - Controls - Challenge comes from the somewhat stiff control scheme that insures some early jumps will take multiple attempts. Mobility is altered somewhat depending on power-up level. This is true for land, sea or air stages. Fortunately this becomes much less of an issue once you've played for a while. - Sound - The audio is comparable to the NES version - Good. You might not be humming the tunes later, but you probably won't feel the urge to mute them either. - Fun - After you get used to the minor control deficits it's a pretty short & sweet game. It can be easily completed in under 30 minutes! However, since there are no additional difficulties or ability to skip to levels, there's little motivation to revisit it once you've won. - Recommendation - If you're a Felix fan, collector or enjoy simple platformers go ahead and pick this one up if the price is right. Otherwise, save your cash for the Zelda, Mario or Mega Man games.Read full review
This is easily one of the best games overlooked in the Nes Library. Solid platformer with unique power ups that's fun to play. Track down a copy you won't be disappointed.

It really makes you appreciate the details of the nintendo NES version & similar NES to Game Boy ports by other companies like Capcom. The game suffers from slowdown, missing animations, and awkward music when compared to it's NES counterpart. With all of that said, it's still a fairly fun if mindless cutesy platform game that combines Adventure Island with Super Mario Bros.
Great game and my wife loves it
