I enjoyed the remaster, although I've only played the original once or twice. What about it did you find "kind of butchered"?
It's not as bad as the mobile version from 2014 (seriously, go look it up if you don't believe me!), but I still prefer the original art and sprites. Butchered is maybe too strong a word though, that's more fair to say about the mobile version.
EDIT: forgot to mention they used the GBA translation as a base and discarded many iconic Woolsey lines from the original, like "son of a submariner!". There are obviously a lot more changes but I'm not going to be full purist and claim everything was objectively better on the SNES just because that's the version I'm used to. You can look at the full differences here.
