I was a sega kid so I played the monster land / dragons trap fork of the franchise that introduced what we would now call ARPG and metroidvania elements.
I thought the Nintendo side of the industry was playing the Adventure Island reskin? I’m surprised to see a Wonder Boy based on the OG mechanics on SNES.
Edit: hang on! The video clearly shows this game is Super Adventure Island!
