BATMAN- RETURN OF THE JOKER IS NO LAUGHING MATTER ON NES – TODAY IN HISTORY – DECEMBER 20TH, 1991
Besides the slight identity crisis that we saw with Batman: Return of the Joker, it was also not all that well received by the fans. This was the first Batman game for Sunsoft since their debut with the license on the NES, Batman (which was quite a success on both Genesis and NES). The cards were stacked against this Batman game from the get go. Rather than being dark and gloomy like the first Batman game, Return/Revenge was quite colorful. The NES versions music, handled by Naoki Kodaka, was good for the system while Tommy Tallarico (Terminator CD on Sega CD, folks, get that) was tapped to adapt it to Sega Genesis (covered here in Revenge of the License). It was not all fun colors and doom this time around.
