Batman: The Video Game was published and released by Sunsoft in 1990 for the Nintendo Entertainment System. It is a platform game consisting of five levels, that last of which being the Gotham City Cathedral where Batman must face off against The Joker! Similar to Ninja Gaiden, the gameplay largely involves Batman wall jumping in order to scale buildings. There were also versions of this game released for Sega Genesis and Gameboy. The NES version of the game is widely known as being one of the few movie based titles to receive positive critical reception for the system. In this video, James Rolfe and Mike Matei play the first four levels. Stay tuned next week for the conclusion, where Mike and James play through the final stage and attempt to make it to The Joker! (This is Part 1 of a 2 part video)

Cinemassacre: John Lithgow should have been the scarecrow.

[@citythatbreeds]

so how was your take on the most recent riddler in le batman 2022?

[@kusicostanza8243]

Funny how exactly what James wanted from a new Batman movie in this video came true this year

[@Pako_equis]

I hear theres a sequel in the works

[@froderickalabaster]

cant believe the joker sequel is gonna be a musical

[@OptimalMario]

​@@froderickalabasterdid you watch the latest trailer?

One of my favorite NES games. So glad you guys are playing this.

Yay

[@PeteSkerritt]

This video takes me back to the late 1980s & early 1990s, when I'd sit with a friend and we'd take turns playing games that we rented for the weekend. One of us would play while the other would be supportive... maybe by referencing an open copy of Nintendo Power (for maps & strategies) or just by giving advice based on experience or what was seen on the screen. Before we had the Internet to walk us through games, playing with a friend was really the best approach. It was like having a navigator to help guide you along the way... and, at least in my case, you both felt pretty accomplished when seeing that ending or those closing credits. Can't wait for Part 2.

[@polypay_]

amen brother amen

[@OfficialJab]

I'd like to see a video of them playing like kids did back then, bickering over how long each other have been playing. James saying 'You got two turns!' and Mike replies 'But the first one didn't count it was too short'

[@ShaunGrimm]

yea to old for that stuff but my boys would wreck it from playing like total melt down

[@H4x4t3hN00bz]

shit has changed tho

[@JunmaiShu]

or you'd take turns/shifts while the other slept even... I've had sessions like that for really hard games & for leveling up in RPG's. Yup... nothin like the old school. It gave you a sense of accomplishment to see those shitty endings, often just a screen saying "congrats" or something, ripe with typos.

[@DaweezMauiWowee]

"Stands for bullshit!" You know James and Mike are good friends when they're on the same wavelength.

[@thekungachunga4578]

Almost eerily so...

[@sheldonfredericks8034]

10:02 Lol! I guess you called it.

[@TheRiisingSun]

"I beat the Joker... I did it one time!" That took me right back to kindergarden and kids talking about how they've beaten the last boss, but they only did it once, because it's so super hard, but they definitely did it. I don't care if Mike has beaten him, probably did, but that sentence took me back xD

[@gibgob3094]

Just came back to see that James was asking for a “new take” on riddler. I think the Batman did that quite well. Funny to see. Maybe Matt reeves is watching lol

[@froderickalabaster]

does he know?

[@AHeroAlmost]

I really appreciate mike got the image of google and showed us the name of the enemy out of the instruction manual little things like that really make the video better in my opinion!

[@electricmastro]

The best Batman game of the 20th century.

[@aimfuldrifter]

25:30 - that was some intense gaming I haven't seen in long time :) Well done, Mike!

[@MegamanNG]

Lol I died when James said that XD

[@finngamer]

Fun, insightful, eventful. This was probably the best James & Mike Mondays. :)

[@Calethar]

Yup. This is my favourite James and Mike Monday hands down. I still own this game and love it. I've had it since 1990 I think. I have beaten it once, but not sure how I would do now. Anyways, the last few min of this vid is hilarious. 24:42 to the end of the vid had me on the floor. 'Rinse and repeat'. Hahaha. "just fuck em up'. and he does it with 2 life... Best James and Mike Monday ever. Cheers.

[@lanocondo]

Plus! that laughter at 7:07

[@finngamer]

***** Sure, that was a fun episode, but Batman here had so many tight gameplay situations. Excitebike kinda lacked in that department.

[@anthonymedrano3456]

Lol farming, well back in my day it was call fill my shit up

[@thejamman4070]

I didn't know any proper gaming speech until 2010.

[@AlphaOmegaSin]

All the Batman NES games are good in their own right, though the self titled one is easily the best. From the graphics which genuinely are still even today some of the best on the system, the music (Sunsoft always rocked in this department on NES) to the level design etc.

[@taomasterwaka6287]

The best batman game though is still Batman dark tomorrow for the xbox

[@smashbrospippop1931]

Hey alpha!!

[@Blackpapalink]

Game the fuck on AOS. Heheheh. . . I just realized your initials are the same initials Castlevania Aria of Sorrow.

[@anavash]

The music in Master Blaster blew my mind too. Great stuff.

[@matthewguggino5488]

[@nickdemizio3952]

24:00 for the animation part

[@Symbiotian]

thank you good sir

[@nathansheldrick959]

Thank you.

[@FreakEating]

Holy crap! I loved that game. The final battle with Joker was my favorite part.

[@WillEatForFood]

a lot of Sunsoft games have good music

[@Whelt]

That part at the end with Mike running and jumping over those Terminator dudes - That was amazing!

[@adamwestbatman2870]

"If Adam West had to do this, he'd be f****d." I am personally offended.

[@Francisco-xv6wm]

Adam West Batman​ I love that game.

[@adamwestbatman2870]

Same here.

[@Francisco-xv6wm]

Adam West Batman ^^

[@oreganodog]

10:01 It seems that they’re following James’ words now with the New Batman movie coming out.

[@StevenThomasGaming]

Farming. No back in my day I called it filling my shit up. That is so a quote from my childhood

[@KombatGod]

Yeah, like growing up you find all the "official" terms for videogames stuff, but back then everybody used to make up names. Like I used to call bosses "end monster", or my uncle called levels "walls" and stuff like that.

[@Colfax11000]

KombatGod I couldn't agree more. The NES and Super Mario Bros. came out when I was in 1st grade. When I would describe it at school I never used the right terms. I remember actually saying, "well in Super Mario Bros. you just go across the screen and you jump on boards and bricks and stuff..." I never even knew about such fancy words like Platformer , Side Scroller, etc.

[@FirestoneX]

KombatGod You called bosses end monster? Weird. My family always called them the "main dude"

[@StevenThomasGaming]

It made me think back of all the random things I called stuff. Even my mom while playing Mario Bros on the NES had different names for things. Damn the instructions! lol

[@TXFDA]

***** Yeah, farming is a newer term. I think it came around when MMO games got more popular and stuff. I'm sure it might have been around before that, but that's what I think of most when I hear "farming". MMOs and RPGs. And lately I think Borderlands also.

[@EricTheCleric93]

I think this has been my favorite James & Mike Mondays yet. You guys should do a full play through!

[@Calethar]

Yup, this is the best James and Mike Monday hands down. The last few min is hilarious.

[@TheKillerofTrends]

I love what you guys are doing, I love the nostalgia. You guys make the same jokes we were making back then. It's what I look forward to on Mondays. It's on my bucket list to get a Simons Quest cartridge signed by you two.

[@Vyseblues]

It seems like almost all of Japanese publishers back in the 80s and 90s knew how to make fantastic video game adaptations of cartoons and movies.

[@Dilbez]

Oh man, I had an absolute blast watching this. Wicked funny, looks like you guys had fun!

[@empire0]

Go fuck em up, go fuck em up! I'm gonna fuck em up! lol....Part 2: Bootsy comes in and beats the game.

[@PikaLopez]

9:47 boy that aged like fine wine

[@elliotbjorksdottir2878]

It stands for... bat. Synchronized: It stands for BULLSHIT. lmao

[@1805movie]

22:12 Unison "It stands for 'Bullshit'". Great minds think alike.

[@DarkDekicDuka]

How would LJN make this game?Hmmm....I guess...you would be Alfred collecting bats and fighting bosses along the way.The bosses being a clock,a bat pencil and a black dildo look-a-like.In the final boss,you finally play as Batman sticking your batarangs up the Joker's ass and then to beat the game,you must be Alfred and then be in the spot where the shadow is hitting and deliver a watch to Batman so he can make the Joker stronger and then he explodes and then you have to save Joker's parts and fight him on a blue dragon while flying through the insides of LJN beaten up asshole and when you beat Joker,the game says :"YOU BEAT GAME,GOOD WORKING,FUCK YOU," and then you would comment on the bad gramar and everything would be fine in the world.Except for the fact that the LJN Batman game exists. LJN PRESENT:BATMAN MOVIE THE GAME THE.

[@EdgeOfEntropy17]

LOVED THIS GAME!!! One of the best Batman games ever, not to mention one of the best NES games ever. Great video guys!

[@philbateman1989]

The term "Rest" instead of lives in games is a way of avoiding stating that a character dies. You see it most often in games aimed at kids where the developer wants to avoid the concept of characters dying, or in licensed games when the owner of the character won't allow the character to literally die in the game. The way they get around it is to refer to the character's life meter as "power" instead, and when the character runs out of power, they have to rest, instead of having them run out of life and die. For example, Mario never "dies", he just gets knocked out, it's just a kinder way of handling failure.

[@jessejayjones]

This was the most intense James & Mike Monday ever! I'M THE GODDAMN BATMAN

[@VZMkII]

I'd like to see Clayface in a Batman Movie

[@hermaeusmora2945]

That would be interesting but i fear it would suffer because it'd have to be all CGI.

[@SorcererLance]

Hermaeus Mora to be fair, on the other hand... I'm sure he wouldn't have looked much better as Claymation either

[@Iropine]

Hermaeus Mora It could be stop motion. I mean, he is clay after all.

[@mathewsoltan9854]

None of my friends game...well play good games. I got one friend who is into Assassin's Creed games and Minecraft. Not bashing on them, just eh I wish I had a friend like Mike or James.

[@gamemaker1802]

Same here, man.

[@RyanSmith-hb9di]

Me neither Matt. My friends play sports games. Doesn't anyone want gameplay or at least a good story?

[@gezi5927]

Um those are much better than NES games. Minecraft is a whole virtual world and Assassins Creed is an awesome stealth game

[@JohnSavant]

If I had the cash, I'd order the NES cartridge from ebay immediately, can't go wrong with Batman using Ninja Gaiden mechanics ^^

[@alihanbaysal1221]

They DID a batman movie just about the Riddler. Kudos to you James.

[@damagecase138]

I want to see a Batman movie with Mr. Freeze done right

[@tetsujin_144]

I know it's probably not what you had in mind, but the animated movie "Sub-Zero" was actually quite good IMO. (I didn't expect it would be - name sounds like an ill-conceived attempt to leech off Mortal Kombat's popularity, and I think it was direct-to-video which is often a bad sign... But I was actually quite pleased with it.) The animated series practically *invented* the concept of Mr. Freeze "done right", after all... Before that he was pretty much just "bad guy with a freeze ray"

[@ColinBrain]

***** Yeah, he could have been if it weren't for the overall tone of the film + the silly puns...

[@TheClaybones]

***** CHILL OUT!

[@lennydale92]

Clay Bones COOL PARTY!

[@Makron5]

Try the Arkham City game. I know it's silly to compare movies and games, but fuck it, Arkham City has treated Mr. Freeze better than any movie will EVER treat him.

[@chamomilechampion3716]

One if the best James and mike Mondays so far, I reckon. I think it's because it's a difficult but good game they're playing. Plus anything batman is usually cool.

[@N00BterminatorX]

Yeah Megaman is a character you don't hear much about here since his games are, y'know, good.

[@JacobC364]

good back then for games back then not nowadays buddy

[@N00BterminatorX]

Jacob364 No he's not like Sonic, where his games got worse over time. Megaman's games are pretty much good all around, as far as I see it, they just stopped making games for him for some reason.

[@JacobC364]

Dr. Octo I never liked the games personally. They mustve stopped because it wasn't doing good enough or they cant do anything more with him. Isnt there like 20 of em?

[@N00BterminatorX]

Dr. Octo If you include Classic Megaman, Megaman X, Megaman Legends, Megaman Battle Network, and Megaman Starforce ALL being separate franchises with games to represent them, the number skyrockets over 20.

[@Jman2113]

Dr. Octo Because Capcom doesn't care about blue armored people.

[@Hahnsoulo]

I think "REST" is probably an abbreviation of "restore" or "restart". If it's 0 then you have no "restorations" or "restarts" left. I agree that it's not intuitive.

[@Zaran666]

gran juego de la epoca, muchas horas estube jugando con el jeje

[@Rekwan]

If you're here because of the cartoon, skip to 25:00

[@Untouchaable]

Zombies Ate My Neighbors for this October. A lot of different enemies from classic movies to talk about and definitely fun co-op gameplay.

[@Draggo-zp1jf]

Why does Batman spends boomerang if they return tto him?

[@Bananadine]

the batarangs are recyclable but they use a fuel that is not, each time he throws one he has to charge it up with a small amount of the rage that he feels about his parents getting murdered, and after a while he becomes too calm and placid to be able to charge his weapon so he needs to expose himself to more criminal activity in order to get angry again and until then he cannot fight at full effectiveness sources: Detective Comics #261, Detective Comics #414, Man-Bat #1, Deuteronomy 3:12-20

[@Bananadine]

well yes and no, a lot of people think that that might be true but it's really a mixed bag you have to take it all with a grain of salt, these things can get very complicated and sometimes we have to accept that we simply cannot know everything that we think we know that we know

[@Bananadine]

Bioshock : Infinite :: Batman : Forever yes the parallel is very clear

[@Metasylum]

I remember the Gameboy version being hard but pretty fun.

[@RSK412]

I bought this game when it came out. I always felt like it had such a unique style that they had to have been coding a ninja game and just tacked Batman in there last minute. It looks like Sunsoft also may have used a modified Journey To Silius engine for this game, as well.

[@The16bithero]

"Stands for Bullshit!" I think all of us said it at the same time

[@pmwest7977]

Batman Begins was the best of Nolan Trilogy. It felt like a Batman movie. TDK was good, but it was too busy developing Joker and Harvey Dent. Batman was a side character on his own movie. TDK felt like AVGN said: a crime drama movie with Batman in it. Batman Begins was all about Batman becoming Batman. Batman was the main focus of the movie. TDKR... What a joke.

[@irllcd13]

It's true, but even that one is overrated. The Nolan movies aren't that great. Also, Mark Hamill and Jack Nicholson are both better Jokers. TDKR is actually bad. It's so stupid it's like a Michael Bay movie.

[@carbootstudios2459]

I thought they were okay

[@JcGross93]

Since when does James have a tattoo?

[@KazzKobb]

since BIG RIGS? lol

[@FlintG]

Since BIG MOTHER FUCKING RIGS!

[@nudl3Zz]

but what is it?^^

[@samrussell9742]

Did he get a tattoo for the big rigs review?

[@KazzKobb]

He might have gotten those tattoos before big rigs. To be honest, when he did a parody of big rigs commercial, I thought his tattoos were temporary stickers until I watched this video where u can see glimpse of his tattoo on his arm. His tats were legit all along. Anyhow, BIG MUTHERFUKIN RIGS

[@michaelbromley5048]

James! You called the new Batman movie with the Riddler as a perfect only villian movie.

[@ConsoleWars]

The music and cutscenes in this game are awesome. Hard as hell though.

[@goldenjav2954]

Yes

[@marxist-leninisttheory8023]

just recently beat this. It was reaaally fun but hard work

[@barryclark6119]

I made it all the way to the Joker--which is hard as fuck. I was determined to keep playing until I beat him...then my little sister comes in my room, bugging the hell out of me. She messes around and ends up falling on the floor (I may have helped a little)...her thud actually pops my game out! I did not have the resolve to start over. Never played it again until years later when just playing around with emulation. To this day, I joke with her. Threatening to buy her a NES and this game and making her get me back to that spot. No emulators. No save states. You play it the way I did. You will understand why I harbor so much resentment. You will feel my pain. LOL

[@Avrelivs_Gold]

I recall 'Prince of Persia - Sands of Time' jumps were much harder to master than these...

[@JayReviews]

You haven't seen the Clock Tower level yet o_o And it's right before you fight the Joker, which is a pain in the ass.

[@Avrelivs_Gold]

Jay Reviews I've seen it far too many times, I assure you...

[@assasinsbear]

I remember when you have to triangle jump your way up the statue to get the dagger

[@Avrelivs_Gold]

Assassinsbear 'Tomb Raider: Underworld' had this exact moment jumping too. Batman is so easy in a way that you can grab the wall whenever you please.

[@m.kakazu]

But sands of time was a lot more forgiving with the rewind ability.

The goats

[@NewCanada]

Problem with Christopher Nolan's Batman movies and the rest of DC/WB's movies now a days is that they're grounded in reality. They try to be as realistic as possible which is why I can't stand them. I'm hoping this trend dies soon...

[@NewCanada]

CJ Rocky Yeah I'm the complete opposite I can't stand fantasy stuff to be grounded in reality. They did the same damn thing with Mortal Kombat a few years ago on KZbin. Dear Hollywood please stop doing that! I never asked for fantasy stuff to be grounded in reality...ever.

[@NewCanada]

CJ Rocky As long as it's not like Nolan's Batman movies. Something like the Arkham games would be cool. WB/DC's movies seem like they are trying to be way too serious, realistic, and artsy.

[@Rockysbeats]

LOL Party Up (Ordained Atheist Priest) yeh that was a bad example, fuck nolans version its shit allaround...emm lets say instead maybe like a cross between The tim Burton version and a Quinten Tarrentino film would be cool.

[@NewCanada]

CJ Rocky Or a cross between something detective related. I don't think I've seen Batman do any detective work in any of the films.

Definitely the best James and Mike Mondays episode I've ever watched. So funny and so intense at the same time. Loved hearing your thoughts on the Batman movies in general as well. Keep up the good work guys. Can't wait for part 2!

[@dradeel]

I frickin' love Sunsoft. They are the true masters of using the NES sound chip in creative ways, to make some awesome tunes. Not to mention, they made some damn good games too! Batman, Batman ROTJ (sure, it's flawed in its insane difficulty, but it's such a wicked impressive game both sound- and graphic wise, you almost can't believe it's on the NES), Ufouria, Blaster Master, Journey to Silius, and probably dozens of other impressive games that I've never had the chance to try. I wanna try Sunman, which would be quite the gem to play legit :)

Vrezzian Aladdin on SNES is a great game!

[@knightmayor1703]

I know its a good game but I was thinking if they could play it in memory of Robin Williams not as a critique.

[@erixmix]

SirNightmayor You do know this is a channel that does critiques, right? A tribute in that manner sounds contrived, sappy, and very likely quite boring.

PLEASE do Batman return for NES. One of the best gemes from my childhood

[@GoogleVideoMan]

Wait, there's actually a good old Batman game!?

[@j.d.simahan5014]

Yeah, second one and Batman returns on SNES too.

[@elimphead]

[@Apophis324]

[@HarhaMedia]

The graphics in this game are so well detailed that it nearly looks kinda like a SNES game IMO. D:

[@panda-goat]

[@Arnuuld]

Call me old but this is still one of the best games ever made.

[@phillipwhite948]

I'd like to see a Batman movie focusing on Poison Ivy.

[@carbootstudios2459]

Same. I like the 2004 version of the character
