Return of the Joker holds its own against other action-platformers of the era like Contra and Power Blade. Like most games at the time, this was another side-scrolling game, but the graphics were improved and Batman had different gadgets and shot batarang after batarang at villains. Batman: Return of the Joker (1991)Ĭoming a few years after Burton’s film, Return of the Joker satisfied many Batfans who were eagerly awaiting Batman’s next adventure. Plus Batman’s ability to do a wall jump was a total game changer. But it retains a lot of the colors and themes that would define Batman for decades. A fairly straightforward side-scroller, the game is similar to many others of its time. It’s nearly thirty years old now but is still considered one of the better Batman games. This is the first Batman game that many of us will remember because it was released on the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) and was tied to Tim Burton’s Batman. We didn’t list every game to ever include these heroes, just the ones that were too good (or too bad) to pass up. Let’s take a look back at some of the good (and very, very bad) games from Batman and Superman’s past. Sadly, many times it was boring, frustrating and completely forgettable.
Being Bats or Supes should be exciting, fun and larger-than-life. Fans had been burnt so, so many times before. For many years, a sense of dread came with the announcement of any new Batman and Superman game. But it wasn’t always this good for Batman and his Kryptonian buddy. The last few years have been very kind to Batman with the fantastic Arkhamgames. Yet their track records in the world of video games are spotty at best.
Batman and Superman are two of the biggest cultural icons in history.
