What is a "gave video" exactly? I rented and beat the Genesis version and didn't like it.

Batman on NES DOES kick major ass.

Why?

Because Batman was basically a ninja in it. With a gun..... but a ninja! Wall jumpin and all baby :)

Kick ass game, but brutally difficult. Had it and played it for probably a year before I beat it as a kid. Awesome cutscene graphics for the hardware.

I've never understood why people rate this game highly. It's been a long while since I've played this game, but I do remember being strongly disappointed by the level design and the enemy characters. [Goes to watch the video] Yep, it's still the same horrible game. I remember having more problems with the wall-jumping than with the enemies. This game cost me $40+ at the time, and it was a horrible waste of money.

The computer version was a load better - I had it for the Amstrad & The Atari & it followed the film a lot more closely - I've never understood why the NES movie IPs seemed to add stuff that wasn't even anything like the movies - the same happened with the BTTF game & The Addams Family game

I never rated this game that highly either.. just seemed like another of the billions of NES platformers out there. Though i guess that the graphics are pretty good for a NES.

The problem with videos on the web is that you have to listen to guys with really annoying voices and unfunny jokes.. instead of just reading them ;-)

That game was pure style. In a time when licensed games are just crappy knockoffs, Sunsoft actually put some effort into it to craft a beautiful, fun, clever title.

It is most certainly not one of the best licensed games of all time. Giving Batman a gun betrays one of the fundamental aspects of his character.

That and it was a cookie cutter NES platformer.

NES version?

NES VERSION?

Real men played it with a joystick on the ZX Spectrum.

Wait... no. Poor men played it on the ZX Spectrum. Ah.

For a second there, I thought Batman was fighting Boomer Kuwanger. It was the first time that I've smiled while thinking of Mega Man in a solid decade.

When I was a wee lad I played me the living shit out of some Batman: The Animated Series on Game Boy via my Super Game Boy. I would always pick these badass purples and blacks for him, and a yellow for the moonlight, but then everybody would just look like the Lakers. Anyway, that one was awesome. I barely touched this NES one though. I think I have it. i should dig it up and czech it out.

I paid £50 for this (well actually my parents paid - birthday present). I played speccy, amiga and own the Megadrice version. All pretty good, but play Megadrive version now - slow stilted character movement and control, very average level design, platforming and combat. Sorry but NES was best and it is his spear gun, without rope as weapon,

:) If you knew what I thought about the Batman movies. Such a cool character.... the injustice.

Props to the graphics team on this. This was one of the best looking NES games ever! Pretty difficult with the NES limited palette of colors.
