YMMV for Magical Pop'n.
- Cult Classic: The game was well-received by players overall and frequently pops up on a lot of "Most Overlooked/Underrated" SNES games lists. The fact that it has never seen an official release outside of Japan contributes highly to this.
- Nintendo Hard: This game is very cute, but don't dare underestimate it. It will kick your ass if you're reckless.
- Self-Imposed Challenge:
- The classic three-heart run. Go through the game with only a few hit points.
- No magical spells. Sword-only to attack enemies.
- Conversely, no sword run. Magic only.
