To account for this, an error message will be displayed first:īehind the scenes, the string A thief! is copied to both $0907 and the beginning of SRAM (battery-backed memory used to hold the save game data).

The Japanese version instead features a much more plain looking screen, similar to ones seen in other first-party SNES titles, though it does feature a unique font.

Around the same time, the games were released on the Wii U's Virtual Console in Europe and Australia, in Japan on November 26, 2014, and in the United States and Canada on February 26, 2015.

This game was later re-released for the Game Boy Advance in 2004 and for the Wii's Virtual Console in 2007.
