  • Americans Hate Tingle: While Enchanted Castle did reasonably (although not outstandingly) well in Japan, it bombed in the West and was completely overshadowed by Altered Beast and Moonwalker, which helped set Sega on the path to focusing on an older audience.
  • Anticlimax Boss:
    • Janken the Great, the Big Bad of the first game, attacks by standing perfectly still and spitting easily avoidable fireballs at you. If you stand right next to Janken, then it's actually impossible for him to hit you at all.
    • Ashra, the final boss of Enchanted Castle, is even easier than Janken was. Not only does he use the same "stand still and launch easily avoidable projectiles" attack pattern, but Alex can even block his projectiles by punching them.
  • Crowning Music of Awesome: The main level music of Miracle World is memorable for anyone who ever owned a Master System. There is also a full-rock version of this song by Sega's in-house band, SEGAROCKS.
    • Although the music in Enchanted Castle is generally agreed to be severely lacking next to that of Miracle World, the music for the final stage has quite a few fans.
  • It's Short, So It Sucks: One of the main criticisms of Enchanted Castle, which has barely half the stages that Miracle World had. Moreover, the stages in the former aren't really any longer than those of the latter.
