What arcade titles do you think are actually better in their console ports? (lemmy.world)

I've been playing a lot of Gauntlet: Dark Legacy lately and it seems like it has a number of improvements over the arcade release. I'm curious what other ports people find particularly good.

Final Fight on mega cd is a very good port. Still not as good as the arcade, but as enjoyable.

Final Fight on SNES was just bad. Guy removed as a character choice. No two player mode. An incredibly low sprite limit, like no more than 3 or 4 characters on screen at once. One of the stages is cut out.

Are you sure about the lack of two player? I could swear I played two player with my brother when we rented Final Fight.
