Ya know, on paper I feel like using the Mortal Kombat fighting system for a Batman game wasn't an awful idea, but goddamn did they just not execute it well all. The music alone is enough to drive a man mad.
Jingle bells , Batman smells, Robin layed a egg. The Bat mobile lost a wheel , and JOKER got away, HEY!!!!🎶I remembered that old tune while watching this video.
One of my favorite SNES games ever. The graphics, the music, the sound effects, the interactive backgrounds in some of the early beat-em-up levels... and it's Christmas themed on top of that! The only thing I didn't like were the sidescrolling parts, those felt tacked on and unfinished. Everything else is top-notch though. Could've been a little bit longer too.
I remember defeating Batman Returns on Special and Mania. Defeated both without continuing. It was hard but not really that bad once you know how. Special you’ll get to see the final scene from the movie after the scene with Batman defeating Penguin. Mania you’ll get a screen stating that “you are the true Dark Knight”.
Props to you for that. I attempted several times to beat it on mania to no avail. Catwoman is the single most difficult thing about mania.. Even if you block her teleport rush, it still does almost as much damage as if you were hit unprotected by it.
Batman Returns is in my top 10 of all time favorite snes games....as a kid I've seen Batman Returns in the cinema in 92 and fell in love with it....so this game did it for me...i also had Batman Forever for the snes but i traded it for Earthworm Jim after just playing it for an hour 🤣
I remember wasting a weekend rental on Batman Forever when I was a kid lol. I played for maybe 20 or 30 minutes and was more than happy to take it back to the video store.
I know the Batman Forever boss , back in the days I have complete the game once ........ it was a pain in the ass , it take over 2 hours to comple it .
@@masterlee1988 There many much longer games on the SNES (Zelda , Secret of Mana , Final Fantasy) , but that games was with a save option . In Batman Forever is no saveing or password - if you loose .... GAME OVER !!!
Batman forever on genesis is actually a good game! Has great graphics, ok gameplay and moves are easy to pull off, but it lacks from ememies variety and bosses!
Mike this is one of my favorite oldschool batman game. I have to tell you 1 batman kills the motorcycle guys. The stungun guy you can use the grappling hook to hit him with the wall like the movie.
Well this brings back memories. I remember way more of this game than I thought, must have made it pretty far but I was only 7 and I know I didn't play on hard😂
For the life of me in Batman Forever (Genesis), I could never remember the button press to that stupid rope move in the first level to climb after all these years.
i finaly got my Super nintendo mini. by watching the vid you and Ryan. and i love all the games. i have not played them in so long time. its awesome. just wanted to say thank you and Ryan for the tip. :)
It would help to select gadgets in forever Smoke pellet and the electric pellet are the go to I know most of the ins and outs of the game perhaps too much
cool playthrough mike i like batman nes i gotta try this out since i liked sor series i still wanna try batman nes fist only challenge this sounds like a hard challenge yougotta get good on normal to practice and get good
@@mikematei Skylanders is part of the Spyro series. Spyro after the Ps1 era was struggling with consistent quality. Enter the Dragonfly bombed. Heroes Tail did well but sold poorly and The Legend of Spyro series underwhelmed. Skylanders has you buy toys to play the game. It's a standard beat me up. It's a pay to win game because if you have very few skylanders and they die that's it for tat gameplay session. Skylanders is very expensive to collect for. You are better off just playing the Classic Spyro series on PlayStation. Skylanders gets VERY monotonous.
I take back everything i ever said about Batman Returns on snes, it really isn't bad at all, maybe a bit too short but the combat is awesome, probably cause Konami made it and not LJN.
when it's gonna be possible, it would be awesome if you do an episode with Ps1 fighting games like Tekken 3, street fighter alpha on versus with someone else :)
I know you must have had requests for Majora's Mask, you've played so many zelda games and hacks. Any chance you'll stream it? Is there a reason you haven't yet?
Hey Mike - I'm a follower from Australia. How about a review/gmeplay of some uniquely Australian games? Aussie Rules Footy/International Cricket/Agro Soar come to mind
@@АртёмКривошей-в1о in my opinion considering how the original version of penguin and catwoman was the movie was pretty grotesque....so much so that toy companies didn't want to produce the penguin version from the movie because kids were afraid of it 😆
I bought this game for peanuts back in the day, and it was the worst game ever. I could never figure out how to use the Batbolas, it literally had the worst controls. There was a cheat code that I used to get to Riddler. 1/5
Batman killing mercilessly! Also, the Batman Forever game looks atrocious. Acclaim is better than this. The Batman Returns game was so great. The punching and slamming sound effects, alone, are incredible. It's sad that Batman Forever got the game it did.
Tim Burton should do a couple more Batman movies. I love how he captures the Batman universe. Gotham City never looked better.
Batman Returns is one of the best Batman games of all time and It's a beat em up classic on the SNES and it follows the movie really well.
Even the music is pulled from the film
@@bmshaven That too.
Meh... It's average at best. The game goes downhill right after the first stage.
Agreed
My favorite Game on the Super Sega 64 was Titanic 2 - Reckoning.
Ya know, on paper I feel like using the Mortal Kombat fighting system for a Batman game wasn't an awful idea, but goddamn did they just not execute it well all. The music alone is enough to drive a man mad.
Mortal Kombat as a fighting game, works well. Mortal Kombat mixed with sidescroller though, has always been a disaster.

Batman Forever : "No-one ever played this and enjoyed it." LOL. Coffee splutter etc
You can spear the wall behind the first boss And pull a chunk out to hit him like in the movie! It takes away one whole color of his health bar.
this needed to be played as mike matei's JOKER
1st game: Great Game
2nd game: WTF was that
Beat em ups, post-Final Fight, where you only had 1 character to play as always felt pretty bare bones to me personally
Batman Returns is one of my favorite SNES games! Very difficult but so much fun!!!

"Ever Dance With the Devil in the Pale Moon Light?"
@@inputfunny that maybe true but that quete is from Comic Books.

Yes.
Thanks for the laughs, Mike.
Mike playes “Batman Levels Drag Forever” on the SNES 🤣

At least it wasn't for earthworm Jim 4 on the Amico
@@jesseg7841 i say....even as a huge Batman fan i just couldn't experience Batman Forever through Rose colored glasses
@@obtbyj778 bdw that thing is still not released
Mike you should play Batman & Robin for the SNES and Genesis they’re both different but great games, the Sega CD game is also different but good.
I remember wasting a weekend rental on Batman Forever when I was a kid lol. I played for maybe 20 or 30 minutes and was more than happy to take it back to the video store.
Same with me. Rented it on sega. Couldn't past the beginning of level cause i couldn't figure out how to use the graple.
Great game, much better than the Sega version

Over 2 hours is pretty long for a game back then as many were 1 hour or less.

Michael Keaton does a pretty good Arnold impression, with all those one handed lift and slams.
I remember buying Batman Returns for SNES just because I love the movie. Turned out to be one of my favorite games on the console.
I like Batman Forever on snes just fine.
First time I had a crush on Catwoman 😂😂😂
this game is surprisingly enjoyable for a singleplayer beat em up, gets me in the xmas mood. did you ever do gradius gaiden on stream?
Batman forever on genesis is actually a good game!
Has great graphics, ok gameplay and moves are easy to pull off, but it lacks from ememies variety and bosses!

Hey Mike!! Remember the "Where's the beef" lady?
Well this brings back memories. I remember way more of this game than I thought, must have made it pretty far but I was only 7 and I know I didn't play on hard😂
Batman Returns is nearly as great as TMNT IV single player.
For the life of me in Batman Forever (Genesis), I could never remember the button press to that stupid rope move in the first level to climb after all these years.

It would help to select gadgets in forever
Smoke pellet and the electric pellet are the go to
I know most of the ins and outs of the game perhaps too much
So The manual says it goes Easy, Normal, Hard , Special, and then Mania. If you beat it on the harder levels you can get different endings.
I got through batman forever i still say its not that bad
Agreed! I have always enjoyed that game. Once you get the move and wepons down its great
Batman forever only on genesis!
Not great by any means
It is an "interesting" title if u play through
I love the sound effects and Music in this game. I barely make it through the game on normal and easy idk how anyone can do hard.
Every time I play the first stage,gotta pull that wall behind him on the first boss
Have you ever played the lost Vikings for snes
How is he not doing this in Joker character? Batman Forever. It sucked back then, it sucks forever!
I didnt think about it until you typed this
What about the Bruce lee game on sega genesis? Have you streamed that? Loved that game!
Guess Batman crossed over with Mortal Kombat BEFORE Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe 😂
cool playthrough mike i like batman nes i gotta try this out since i liked sor series i still wanna try batman nes fist only challenge this sounds like a hard challenge yougotta get good on normal to practice and get good
I always liked Batman Returns but never beat it. I need to give it another try.
I thought mike only live streamed on twitch?
I do. It’s a premiere.
@@mikematei oh so its not live just a premiere to youtube? Would you ever consider streaming skylanders?
I have never played skylanders, I’d have to try it. Not sure what it is. I believe it was a toy line several years back?

This game looks pretty cool and I didn't know it developed by Konami. Surprised I never rented in back then.
Mike you should try the awesome mods for Openbor -> Fighters History Revenge and World Heroes Justice, Night Slashers X... Amazing Beat Em Ups
nightshade for nes Mike its the most underrated game ever!!!!
Love 3 Amigos
i love this game magn
Hey mike I just got the angry video game nerd 1and 2deluxe on my ps5 just now
blush you 1:22:55
I didn't know a snes game could make so many different kinds of fart noises.
Would you play Batman & robin like you did with James,
its frustrating the only decent batman we got as kids were the two on NES. I think it was all the way until like arkham asylum.
Nah, two great SNES Batman games. Batman Returns, and The Adventures of Batman and Robin!
@@blaketindle4703 You're right, those were both pretty cool.
The music in batman forever was SOOOO bad.. lol but amazing gaming, gj mike.
Please live stream Batman Returns for Sega Genesis... that is a tough one
Try batman forever on genesis with a friend, you will love it!
Lol
@@lordcolinb you don't know noob
God, the attacks are so satisfying in this game.

If that Joker arcade cabinet existed forreal, there would've been alot of fights getting to play that game
Thanks for playing through this hunk-of-junk, Mike! It's always fun to watch you deal with these less-than-inspired entries in the SNES library.
