Can someone find a redeeming factor about this game? Like anything good about it. (infosec.pub)

Ghostbusters on NES (I think a very similar game came out on other contemporary systems). While the Mega Drive ghostbusters game was hard but it was worth playing, I don't understand what they were thinking with this one. (What were they thinking?) For people who have played it, back then or now, do you think it has any redeeming qualities? The only thing I can think of is the AVGN episode that came out of it.

the redeeming factor of ghostbusters is that i still laugh at the avgn review of ghostbusters 17 years later

I played the c64 version as a kid and mostly remember the laugh sample in the intro and the good music. The game was fun because i liked Ghostbusters, but mostly had no clue what i was doing or had to do.

I liked the game loop.

Catch ghost upgrade weapons and accessories to help catch more ghosts.

I just gets boring after a few loops.

The Atari 2600 version is impressive though.

NES < C64 < 2600

How was the 2600 version impressive? I can't imagine a 2600 version of anything being impressive, so I have to ask.
