3. The dungeon itself is shorter. I believe it's the same number of floors, but they're smaller.

Really, I was disappointed with this dungeon. It didn't have the same feeling on the DS. On the NES, I could sense being in a scary, uncomfortable dungeon. On DS, I was so comfortable in there that I walked back out after Hecatoncheir to level up, never afraid of getting wiped out.
I agree with everything you've just said. Although there are dungeons in the DS version which get you uncomfortable and a little scared, this one isn't one of them, like it was on the NES. Though those bones on the floor are awesome. I only needed one Dark knight with one Dark Sword to own this dungeon. In fact, i had a dragoon, and i could kill enemys with spears before they had a chance to split. Btw, who was the boss here, i forget.
