Monkey King: Master of the Clouds
A huge Japanese coin-op hit developed by HOT-B in 1989, the game was later renamed Cloud Master when released outside Japan on the Sega Master System. This upgraded release of the original arcade version includes HD ready elements by developer Starfish-SD, the company formed by the original HOT-B development team. For the first time, live online leaderboards will add a worldwide competitive quality to the game not possible before.

Monkey King is by far the most barebones retro game port I have seen on the Switch next to D/Generation. Save for handy online leaderboards and the option to increase your lives, there’s little else of importance to speak of, from a locked border, a great (but also locked) display option, no DIP switch or difficulty changes, or really anything extra that could have made this port more worth it such as a gallery or new levels, this is a really disappointing release with quite a bit of balance issues. It would have been nifty if the SMS and Famicom versions of the game were thrown in as a bonus, but sadly that wasn’t meant to be either. While I’m all for retro rereleases being more common, (And thankfully, without the god awful smear filter the JTA series include) there needs to be a lot more care into making them as accurate as the original game while also adding a lot of QOL features.
