I call them ports :). Is this a trick question? My brain is not working :).

That's what I was saying earlier. The Hudson Wonderboy games are ports(except 'New AI'). Neutopia is a clone.
Right :). I was saying that AI1 (NES), New Adventure Island (TG-16) and JJ & Jeff were clones of WB1.

For the Hudson Wonderboy stuff, they often added a license (Bikkuri Man) to sell it (which goes back to my other point).

I think we agree with each other, but I may not have worded things as clearly as I should have :).

I haven't played through AI1, but doesn't have the same levels as the arcade(with some changes here and there)?

Adventure Island NES is identical to Wonder Boy SMS.

Other than the Master Higgins sprite.

And the music.

But I meant the levels. They're the same.

I finally found this thread again! Purely by accident, I might add (I tried searching for "AI1" and it yielded no results).

Anyway, I totally understand your point about AI1 NES: it is an official port of the arcade with cosmetic changes. OK,  I agree that AI1 is not a clone. Would you agree that New AI (PCE) is a clone of WB1?

Yeah definitely, thats what I've always said since I first rented it back in the day. Thankfully, its a real clone, like Neutopia and not just an inspired tribute or something like Super Adventure Island.
