My favorites will always be the PC and GameBoy releases but the SNES version is certainly worth a look.

I quickly tried it (having only ever played the PC version when I was a kid).

They really upped the level and detailing on the art and the audio/music is quite good as well.

Design-wise they added a button to perform a forward jump which is really welcome.
