Arcade ports that have different features than the originals

Anyone play all the way through the SuperGrafx version of Daimakaimura?  I know for a while it was supposed to be the best port for home consoles, but now you can versions even closer to the arcade obviously, like on the Saturn.  But did it have anything different?  All these ports drive me crazy.  You never can tell without playing extensively if it's a lackluster or just plain bad conversion or a really good one with new things in it you haven't yet seen.

It's not that great of a port and gets by from having a larger cart than the MD version and standards were lower early on in that generation. It extremely faithful to the arcade though and doesn't feature anything original as far as I know.

It's better then the Saturn port imo.  Saturn port is emulated and it's a bit iffy.  Stutters a bit just feels cheap.  SGX port is legit for what it is.  Only better versions are the X68000 and the arcade original.

Oh, I had never actually tried the Saturn port for myself, I had just heard people say it was decent.  Same about the X68k one.

It plays perfectly. The visuals just weren't as polished as they should have been. Probably rushed to justify the hardware. The music is very close to the arcade for the time.

Over the years, too many people have said that it's a near perfect port and and far and away better than the MD version.

It's not a near perfect port, but in terms of grafics, details, visual content it is far and away better than the MD version.
