Game Review & Impressions
---------------------------------------------------
Based on the original Tim Burton film, Batman the arcade game is a pretty average coin-op. It follows the plot of the film closely, but the gameplay is pretty boring really - it feels like Shinobi/Rolling Thunder, but with Dark Knight overtones.
About the only interesting aspect of the game is the similarity to the Ocean-developed home game, which while not explicitly a conversion of this particular game, does bear some level of similarity.

A nice attempt at following the major scenes in the movie, but without context to them, let’s recap what happens here. Batman throws a man into chemicals and scars him mentally and physically, kills dozens of drivers based on their paint job, kidnaps a woman and forces her into his car, punches Joker off of a roof to his death. and to top it all off, he steals the man’s balloons.
Yeah, now that you mention it, Batman is way less violent and doesn't kill nearly as many people in the game as he does the film... 🤔😂
You don’t mess with a man’s balloons. That’s going too far.
@@Blizzard-kf3qm Yeah, just ask Bob.
@@RoosterMontgomery Bob. Gun.
@@AaronAlexanderOfficial *BLAM!*
"Gonna need a minute or two alone boys!" 😂
This game follows incredibly close to the movies, including the events and how the villain goes. It plays a lot more like a home console SNES game than an arcade with the sidecrolling and amount of time it gives you.
Atari Games was of course owned by Time Warner (Parent company of Warner Bros. Pictures and DC Comics) at the time of the arcade release, so they pretty much got most of the assets from the movie to make it as accurate as possible.
@@MarcSola7 No wonder they nailed it. It was more accurate to the film than the NES or gameboy verions were.
@@thetaytheist Batman Returns do snes é perfeito tb
@@luizsouza7979 not as close to this game
I love the use of voice samples from the movie
The voice effects and the scenes from the movie were brilliant . The character design is on point.
Batman reappearing inside the building as the screen scrolls down during the Joker's fall at the end.
He’s not trust that joker falls in his death!
Yeah.. I don't know, my friend.
Must have been a thing with the arcade's RAM...remember, this was a game from 1990, and computers weren't that advanced. Plus, I missed that detail the first time, I didn't see it until I saw your comment, so chances are others would have missed it too.
@@deanfranz Seems more likely to be an emulation error than something endemic to the arcade version - I'm guessing whomever uploaded this is using an older version of MAME. Also, what you said makes no sense as it would actually use LESS RAM to purge the Batman sprite from memory/ the screen immediately after the Joker falls as it's no longer needed.
No no, it's not a ram or emulation issue. Batman is only trying to imply : "I'm watching you". We all know he has always been a voyeur
Love these loud and noisy arcade machines like this one. You can hear Nicholson making quips as you walk in the local mall or arcade
"I'm Batman."
The bat? Aw man give me a break will ya.
Yeah... Heard that before
@@xxxBURSTANGELxxx Are you replying to the comment or mine?
@@runitback5066 the comment, bruh
@@xxxBURSTANGELxxx Oh yeah my bad😄
I spent hours and hours playing this as a kid. Oh the memories.
I didn't.
Hours and hours? It was an arcade
@@davidkruse4030 oh I meant the Nintendo Batman game.
@@davidkruse4030they had the same exact game on SEGA Genesis you must be young
@@davidkruse4030some people played arcade games for hours you know
Wow. I remember this one. At my arcade when it first dropped, you had to wait in a line and they regulated limited play times
thats cool af haha
Back then, to get anything remotely close to the movies was an accomplishment. Especially in an era of sprites and midi...but this game had descent enough graphics, and they really nailed Elfman's score in some parts.
A reminder of how the 90s was the last great decade.
Debatable. The 2000s were culturally rich
@@HatredInTheFleshNo.
@@HatredInTheFlesh Not really by comparrison
@@BeyondDaX Hell yeah. Lots of iconic movies, games, and music came out of the 2000s.
@@HatredInTheFlesh 🤣🤡🧢🫵
To think, Michael Keaton programmed this whole game single handed.
Ha, I never knew that Atari produced a Batman arcade game 31 years ago. Thanks for the upload.
this game was extremely short....I remember running threw my whole allowance in 15 min..dropping tons of quarters ....ahhh the good ol days....
Thank you very much for uploading your let's play / play through.
I enjoy it and it brings back nostalgic memories.
Man, how did I miss this arcade during my childhood? I was an arcade rat, so you'd think I'd remember something like this, but alas I don't. The only Batman arcade game I remember spending copious amounts of quarters on is the Batman Forever arcade game. I'm bummed that I missed out on this as a kid.
I'd never heard of the game before - maybe arcade operators simply weren't interested in the machine.
@@AL82RetrogamingLongplays apparently only 1000 machines were produced.
Same.
Same here. When I saw the gameplay, I thought it was Batman Forever.
Why be bummed? Not like it's available commercially, pirate and throw it on your PC. I got it working on my modded Wii
I was born in 85, where the hell has this been?
Very dramatic that final flying kick.
Batman’s walk animation is hilarious
The joker's walk is down right hiarlous
This must've been rare, I never saw one of these in the arcades.
I remember this one & the robocop arcade game at golf n stuff in LA I used to go there a lot my sister used to take me every weekend . it was a blast seeing all the old arcade games . I wish the arcades were still around very very few are . I wish they’d make a big come back using those 1up arcade Machines

This game is the same as the 1989 movie which is directed by Tim Burton
I actually grew up with this machine at my local mini golf and I enjoyed it very much. It was pretty difficult if you weren't familiar with all the attack patterns and platforming.
It's pretty damn awesome to see high level play of this game. Just seeing Batman taking so much advantage of those invincibility frames from switching platforms and dodging all those attacks is impressive.
I loved this game as a kid. I had an arcade emulator and played it day and night
They did a great job with the music, but does Batman have to always hold hjs cape? He looks like Bela Lugosi.
I thought the same thing! Does he think he's Dracula?!? XD
@@CollectiveSin Dracula was one of Batman's influences, and Batman's been known hold his cape over part of his face like that(such as in the Batman TAS logo).
I like how this game is more true to the movie than the NES version.
The Genesis version was also much closer to the movie than the NES version.
@@dreamlandnightmare The home computer versions even more so, even if they were ludicrously difficult.
@@OnafetsEnovap Are you talking about the Amiga version? It doesn't look as close as this or the Genesis version. I can't find a DOS or PC version (just a preview of a recently made homebrew PC version).
@@dreamlandnightmare I was referring to the Amiga/Spectrum/C64/ST/CPC versions, yes - I know they don't play like this, I just pointed out that they equal, if not rival, this version in terms of sheer difficulty (and are more faithful to the movie with scene-specific stages - there's even a stage where the player has to crack the Joker's Smilex code within a strict time limit).
I could never find an arcade that had this game. I only found it once, by luck, on a fieldtrip to a mini golf/amusement park. The memories of the struggle to find it. LOL
I remember when I was younger having batman cereal 💯
How come I never get to play this game? It is magnificent for a vintage game.
I played this in my twenties at my local arcade.. I loved the movie and even my little brother did.. i beat the entire thing once with just one continue..
This arcade game was awesome.
The Joker didn't just fall to his death, he fell to hell!!!!.
gotham really looks like a hard life in this game 😂
You should see the original script for the film. The hooker who says hi to the kid at the start of the film was going to be closer to his age and casually talking to a cop to show just how bad Gotham was before Batman got to work.
@@FireLight_Zero jesus
@@oogabooga2581 "Decent people shouldn't live here. They'd be happier someplace else."
2:36 totally life on the expressways in Chicago lol
@@FireLight_Zero Jack summed up the essence of Gotham pretty well in that line.
JOGO PERFEITO!
Cenários iguais ao filme, batmóvel e bat-air inimigos, trilha sonora magnífica.
The pen is truly mightier than the sword
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH
I played this game only on the Commodore 64 and Amiga 500, and they were great, but this arcade version is awesome 😺👍. And you, AL82, are the greatest retro longplayer, i have ever known. 😺👍
"What are you?"
"I'm Batman."
The nostalgia bro I'm over here smiling from ear to ear
That thumbnail always crack the shit out of me. 😂
I never had the fortune to play this arcade version. But at least we'll always have the NES game from Sunsoft.
I know right never knew this existed but the nes version was on point
Can't help but laugh when I see Batman laying waste to dozens of criminals with a cannon on his Batmobile. : )
I'm Batman and where does he get those wonderful toys? Yes I've trying to beat this amazing arcade game on my X39 game console that I ordered from Amazon!
9:32 the place where it all happens, the place where Bruce's parents ((Thomas and Martha)) gunned down by Joe Chill
When life was so simple
How did i miss this! Never knew it existed
14:20 Batman is such a troll. Look how he intercepts the Joker twice during his fall. He's like "See you next fall" and "I'm not going to save you.
I never seen this but this is awesome. I wanna play it
I recently downloaded this for mame....played it for 10 seconds and deleted it.
That's my review.
I love how the joker runs in this
Can't believe I missed this one in the arcades. How is that possible?
Same. Really strange that this existed without me knowing about it. :/
@nemo pouncey ok
I never seen it in arcades either.
Just dumb
@@unnamedexodus3902same! What the heck
The music is incredible. Really good game.
The hit detection seemed like a nightmare.
I don't remember this arcade game at all. There was a Batman computer game that came out before this that is quite similar with the levels in the chemical plant and cathedral and the Batmobile and Batwing stages. It looks like they based an arcade game on a computer game instead of the other way round as was usual at the time.
Was trying to play this just this morning hard as hell got as far as the museum
I may play this tonight. This is radical.
I never new this existed it’s been 30 plus years!
I love how derpy Batman's animations are... It's like had the animators EVER seen a real human move before? 🤣
Instead of intentionally causing Jack Napier to fall over the edge, the objective should be to pull him up, but he always falls. His sprite's clothing should be black, not purple.
This guy played through this in 15 minutes. I respect arcades for having that short kind of play through. For 25 cents thats a fun and intense gaming experience. For 50 dollars for a home port I would be outraged.
The levels look great and so do the backgrounds the only sloppy thing is the animation of the characters are pretty good for 1990 game
14:21......that yell...is truly horrifying almost felt sorry every time I punched or kicked him off....and what is that weird twitching move he performs as he falling .🤔😵😂😂
0:08
"Yeah officer: I was on the roof and Batman jumped down after throwing one of his batarangs into a wall. Then he jumped up and down in-front of me and I think he did a kick? He jumped away and then turned around and did more shadow punches in my direction and sick kicks as he turned and walked away. I just kinda stood there on the platform taking it all in. I wasn't really 'scared', or even really intimidated: But man was I confused."
Batman for Sega Genesis was very good too.
Um clássico dos arcades
This I want to try. Looks fun! Great graphics and music 👌
Yo these old Batman games were awesome. The Sega Genesis ones. This game, Batman Returns and Batman Forever were awesome. I also gotta say the score from the movie in this game is awesome lol.
Joker needs stronger thugs. They go down with one kick to the chin lol
They're all pretending; none of them want to get broken bones and spend months in the hospital after a bat-beatdown.
Batman looks like some wannabe vampire holding his cape that way.
Hmm multiple Batman sprites on the side of the building as Joker falls to his death. Weird…
They should make an Arcade1up of this game with the inclusion of Taito's Superman game from 1988.
I am vengeance.
I am the night.
I am batman.
Remember... the pen is truly mightier than the sword!
But not gravity.
"The pen is truly mightier than the sword!
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!"
4:34 >> Nap: "Really, "Bats"!? U kicked me into the vat when u r suppose 2 help me from getting drown into it!?"
😊
Shame, I never ever saw this in an arcade, it's style of game is very similar to Robocop.
10:47 “why didn’t somebody tel me he had one of those… things!” 😂😂
It is a a shame there was not a home console port of this gem.
This feels like an early Genesis title.
14:22 why there are two more Batman hiding in the wall
Probably it's a glitch. They seem to be the frozen playable character that reappears each time the vertical scroll passes certain points (based on the screen height).
Added: Or they were supposed to be, for instance, gargoyles, but the wrong sprites were copied.
@@PedroCouto1982 I prefer to think that one of them is Val Kilmer, and the other is George Clooney, and they are just waiting for their turn.
@@Jackfromshack, but Joker was always too fast.
I loved this game. Graphics are better than The Batman Forever Super NES game
Back in the day, my local McDonald’s had this as a table top game. I always wished it would be ported to a home console, because the graphics, voice, and gameplay are great.
I'm sure Larry-Boy will be interested in this.
This looks more like a Sega Genesis port than Arcade. Interesting.
Not really. Just means they did a bad job designing the game.
@@notsyzagts7967 Why? Arcade games were not all that advanced in 1990 either.
@@notsyzagts7967 You do know the Mega Drive was based on arcade hardware, don't you?
Hey Echardt! Think about the future!!! BOOM!!!! I LIKE BATS!!!!
I like how he guns down random motorists.
Holy crap I remember this
This is a masterpiece .
5:06 My favorite Joker laugh
This batman is quite spastic and jumps 2 stories screaming "I'm batman" nonstop. Fucking 90s. I made it to the part where he was wasting all traffic on the highway before I had to stop. It's like Timothy McVeigh in a batsuit.
Damn, so dedicated to observing Batman's no kill rule that you won't even have him kill cars in a video game, I take it.
the sprites are so great. the wimpy ballet attacks are not
"If you thought Batman had a rule against killing. You. Were. WRONG!" -- Honest trailers Guy
The Blockbuster Movie Is Now The Blockbuster Arcade Game! Batman From Atari!
Somewhere in Hollywood California next to Warner Brothers studios Michael Keaton is probably still playing this amazing Batman game!
Joker: “ He’s stole my balloons!” 11:17
Jack Napier was the director of the first batman show.Sam Ham the writer of batman the movie made him the joker
this has alot of attention to detail I like this quite a bit
I wish I would have played this game when I was a kid
This is just like the movie 🤣 damn this is great
This looks really cool. I have cover new arcade 1up on my channel wish they would remake this!
EXCELLENT AND NOSTALGIC GAMEPLAY!!! THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO!!! - IM FATMAN!!! FAAATMAAANNN!!!
Gotham is safety :-)
So instead of beating Joker like a traditional boss, you have to shove Joker (both pre-Joker and post-Joker transformation) off a ledge?
