Castlevania II: Belmont's Revenge (GB)

No sooner was the first GB Castlevania over and done with, I moved straight onto the sequel. And guess what? It's ace. Not Aria of Sorrow ace, or even Super Castlevania IV ace, but it's certainly waaaaay better than The Castlevania Adventure. Yeah, so it's still slow (although not quite as slow), but it's easier (so far), not jerky, has more detailed graphics and there aren't any pixel-perfect jumps! BEST.

You have four castles to tackle, before moving on to a fifth, housing (I assume) Dracula. I've already completed the first four, finding them fun to play and not console-smashingly impossible, and the bosses are much better too.

And the game has a password system, so I can stop and continue later. Which I will do!
