Hi Dark,
Good point about virtical scrolling. SL is a grat FPS game, but being 
able to climb things is one area that was left out.
In Ledgend of Kage you could climb up vines or trees to fight enemies 
above you or jump down to the grass to fight enemies on the ground. In 
the castle Kage could fight enemies on the ground floor and work his way 
up to the top of the  wall to fight one of the miner bosses.
These are classic side-scroller elements blind side-scrollers don't have.
As far as complexity goes good side-scrollers had just much advance play 
or complexity in areas as FPS games. Anyone here try fighting Drakula in 
Castlevania?
Well let me just say if you killed him he could transform and come at 
you in another shape until you finally destroyed him. Among his other 
powers was apparation and casting fire balls at you from all different 
directions. He was hard to beat.
