الاستقبال النقدي
The game was critically acclaimed. In March 1994, Super Play awarded it 90% and stated that the game was “even more satisfying than the original” with “much more detailed and involving” platform sections. It summarised the game as being “one of the most consistently entertaining and enjoyable games” on any system. Computer and Video الألعاب described the game as original, challenging and large, and as one of the best games released on the SNES that year. Edge described the game as taking “all the best bits from the original” and simplifying them, thus mitigating the criticisms levelled at the predecessor for being too sprawling and open. It summarised the game as blending “brilliant” graphics, “great” sound and “near perfect” playability into one “explosive” package. According to Peer Schneider of IGN in a retrospective, “Goemon 2 is the best co-op platformer on the Super NES”, and had critical success in Japan.

Two further sequels were released for the Super Famicom: Ganbare Goemon 3: Shishi Jūrokubē no Karakuri Manjigatame in 1994, and Ganbare Goemon Kirakira Dōchū: Boku ga Dancer ni Natta Wake in 1995.
