NES Longplay [055] Batman 

As was the case of most SunSoft NES games, the soundtrack was composed by Naoki Kodaka, who composed a lotta stuff for SunSoft back then.

It's a masterpiece. It even beats Duck Tales' cloud level and Mega Man 2 soundtracks.

Same. Even though Fester's quest is a pretty shit game, the music is WAAAAAAAY better than it has any right to be!

Memories 5:40 best track in the 🎮 game man.

@@mikkotuomainen9044 Cloud level ? You mean moon level ?

*Capcom

elsrdick Japanese developers made the best NES music

Akasagi Phan This.

Parchoozles My favorite is the music from Natsume's "KAGE" (a.k.a "Shadow of the Ninja" or "Blue Shadow" in the West). It's so dope.

Konami had some great music too.

Hahahahah

almost the same for me after almost 30 years i finaly go to the boss ninja before joker i need little more to finish joker for that i become so strong almost to the final boss im :D i need little more traning when i was a kid i die in level 3 but now i finaly go to the ninja boss before jocker :D i become just strong i need little more to finish this game too dude :D she is so hard :D

So Do I!

I did as well! Back in November of 2020, had a game over multiple times and took me 3 days but i finally got it!

@@surferguy1974 welll i think maybe bc we are big people now with big brain make us use more strategy how to fight in boss fight for that we finaly become super good on the game bc when we was kids the game was super hard for us but now we almost finish her for that maybe bc we are big that make us stronger then the game in the game is still amazing i still remember verry good how i play her when i was kid on one big old tv dam it was super amazing days

Ya, the jump button had subtle strength control so you could do a small hop-jump, or a full-on Bat-leap to grab the tippy corner of an overhang. Like Ninja Gaiden, just WHERE you chose to jump determined how successful you were, as well. But unlike NG's constant-pace forward onslaught, Batman's movements had a weight to them because he crouched before the jump, something you had to compensate for.

I agree. The best use of the NES graphics. This game is on another level

Probably one of the few NES games that looks better than the Master System's alternative (Batman Returns looks good as well, but the amount of detail is minimalistic in comparison).

Batman The Joker Returns, the sequel is also impressive!!

shatter hand !? shadow of the ninja !?

Eh, Battletoads is pretty damn good

I could never even reach to joker in nes hahahaha. It was so hard game haha. But absolutely love it

Ah yes I remember that feeling, good times.

@@nikeshdubey4129 true for me was hard too but when i become big and my console died i play now the game before year after so long time from emulator retro website and i finilay finish her finaly i need to die in piece :D hahaha she is hard game true but if you learn how to play her she will become super easy but is true she is one of the hardest games

Tuve que terminarlo , con cheats

Got to the Joker once or twice over the years, but couldn't ever beat him, he's a hell of a mean final boss, in big part because you gotta beat the rapid bastard who comes right before him. Fun game though, and even as a little kid I noticed how it stood out from other NES games for how incredibly good it looked and sounded.

Mr. GMAN's Channel you must of been negative 20 when this game came out. Those nostalgic feels haha

Nothing except Atari.

Ah short games cartridges and passwords and password books lying around the bedroom man i get retro goosebumps thinking about it 😃

Really ? What about the Commodore 64

true when i wa super super small kid dude i have it this game on my nes console it was amazing when i see that now takes me back to my old time when i was super small kid in this time on the night before to go to the bed outside was dark just like now and i remember now in this time i was not in my pc like now bc before so long time i not have it for that in this time in my old days i was in the next room on sec floor playing the game on my old nes console for that when i see this now and heard this music takes me back is amaizng i just rly feel lime my good old days how i wanna back it was super amazing :D before the bed to play this and think for the future for this days and now finaly 20 years later im in this year but the bad thing is now i wanna back again to go before 20 years to play this again in my dead console it was super amazing time

yeeah same to me too it was super fun time i wanna back it was amazing my granny let me have this game for gifts just in random and it was amazing

well, I remember this OSt was going around in my head even when I wasn't in the game haha.

I mean, Tim Burton's Batman killed a lot of people. This was before his no kill rule was well known.

Jason Todd it was well known since the 50s wasn’t it?

Yeah, but I think people didn't care about it as much back then. I mean; in the film, Keaton's Batman blows up a factory along with every person in it, just because it was where the Joker was making his chemicals. Oh; and afterword, he tries to gun down the Joker with his plane, killing several of his goons in the process. Nowadays, when Afleck's Batman blows up a warehouse full of people and is shown shooting guns in a dream sequence, everyone on the internet is up in arms.

Jason Todd Agreed, Keaton’s Batman also burned a man to death before shoving a live bomb down another man’s pants in Batman Returns.

@@jasontodd2607 Let's not forget that he outright tells the Joker, "I'm going to kill you."

+Just “Your Papi” Michael batman arkham series

ninja gaiden nes should have gotten a anime or live action movie as well.

What about GoldenEye 007 for the Nintendo 64?

Ice King That too.

@@sainttrunks1982 ninja gaiden did get an anime OVA

Same here, I never managed to beat the game and it still haunts me to this day 😭

How far did you ever get in the Cathedral? Did you ever make it to the Joker? If not, boy would you be in for a surprise. I assume you've watched a video of someone doing it. He's an extremely frenzied final boss because you basically cannot avoid constantly being hit by him in some way (well, you can, but it requires VERY GOOD timing, consistently, at a break-neck pace)

@@SurelyYewJest I think that I only ever got to just the Cathedral and not far beyond that. I know that I never made it to the Joker, but really can't remember how far into the last level I got.

@@SeanRoppthe Joker is a Joke!

yeah same i still remember the song on the first level in the game too it was amazing that makes me think for my old days when i was kid and i play it her everynight vefore to go to the bed it was amazing days :D

absh Preach on.

@@Parchoozles tell me another one

I don’t get the logic behind your conclusion.

Better then the Arkham series?

@@williamsisk6707 usually the Japanese made games are better than the ones made in the IS. Capcom, Konami, Data East, much better than the US developers like LJN and Acclaim.

RayaneLucas7 me to when I was about 7 I played this

yeah the same for me when i was a kid i have this game on my nintendo that was good and then i say to my self what more i will se in the future what new games i will play if i have computer one day and now that day come now we are 2018 year when i play thisi was in 2004 year was my last playing before to my family get me a computer so much time i play on that game in my nintendo dam it so cool for that this old games was the best how much time i play this everyday when i was a kid early in the morning when i wake up and no have school day i go to the tv and start playing the game before the sun going up so early in the morning dam it it was so cool childhoold :)

@@devill2312 2004? you realize this game is from 1989?

I remember playing this way back aswell, on a clonic nes, My toddler self couldnt get past most levels but I figured that If you were to press "Select" on the second controller... The game would skip a level.

Oh my damn yes. Me my cousin played this all the time as kids. I remember goin over his house every weekend and playin this all time. I miss these days. Too many memories

They are good for such a short game. I would put Ninja Gaiden above this one in that respect, but Ninja Gaiden is also in the top tier of NES games along with this Batman.

Steve Normandin Bloody Tears!!

is awesome!!

I thought I was the only one who enjoyed this music 🎶 ❤️

Best one:D

BANTNAM WGHBN

SAME

Are mai bhi Bhai(me too bro)

Yes 😁😁😂😂😂

Then get an AVS from retroUSB and play through them, even if it means using the built-in Game Genie to give yourself infinite lives.

@@SuperBearPoo thanks for the tip. I ended up downloading an emulator and played through all my favorite nostalgic game about a year ago (and yes I did use game genie lol)

what is that?

You havent heard? They're releasing a Retro NES console with 20 of the most popular games built in. The Mario series, Kirbys Dreamland, Startropics and a bunch of others

Layzie Kat They cant put Batman on it, they'd have to license Batman from DC again, thats too expensive for some nostalgia. And they have Super C instead of the original Contra.

for sure that's why ninja gaiden's my all time fav. nes.

Same. Level 3 was as far as I could go. I barely passed level 2. I remember getting into level 3 by accident and it was like 3 or 4 times from what I remember.

@@Reachland02 true level 1 and 2 are easy but in 3 the game start become hard

true the game is super cool i play her when i was a kid too but you just need to do like me play her from retrowebsite and you easy will play her on pc websites that i do bc my console dies before 10 years but on pc from website is still cool it takes me back to my old days its super amazing and finaly i finish her one time :D

me 2 when i was kid but now when im big i finish her she is super easy when you learn how to play but is amazing game yeah

This game reminds me of ninja garden for some reason

agreed

Yes! Same thoughts! This game is just a piece of arts...

And he watch a clock that and how Batman cape music moves when he falldown were great details for that time :-)

I read that batman and the TMNT's once had a deal made were batman would supply the turtles with pizza in return for delivering him April O'Neil ever so often, all in secrecy of course. Joker had a deal with the Shredder he provided Shredder with the secret ooze in return for Shredder's foot clan bringing him all the makeups he needed. Supposedly these deals led directly to the scenario that played out in this game.

No kidding...

I'd take Judith Hoag or Paige Turco over Megan Fox any day!

That scene was cut out of the home release.

The one where he fights Shredder, stupid. And Shredder's facing the other way for almost the entire fight while Batman fires dozens of rockets at him, like in the game here. You remember.

Most likely gonna be utter rubbish with tons of pay to play

it's too hard for everyone.

Hardes Nes game backthen

I think that, but need more levels xD

I remember as a kid, i only arrived ti the third boss, never could beat It, but for me the hardest game i've ver played was Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 1 the one of ULTRA

@@diegolemos6763 it has unlimited continues tho, so you just keep going until you beat that hard level. Basically no life limit, as you keep your ammo after using the continue button. If you exhaust all your lives on boss level you need to replay the level prior to the boss. Its annoying and very difficult but beatable.

true im 29 and i wanna back in time to play it it was super amazing time :D

Electrocutioner was never known for being that Bright lol
