What's your favorite retro Batman game?
Mine's pic related, It's the best single player beat 'em up experience you can get.

The NES game. I realised many years later I'd accidentally become a Sunsoft fanboy with the NES, and Batman was a big part of that. The soundtrack is amazing.

Totally agree. The genesis port is also really cool in how it lets you use batman's assortment of gadgets from his bat belt (which I think is severely underused in modern batman)

Ninja Gaiden came out on NES a year before it but I guess you could argue that it's a wall cling rather than a wall jump in it.

Underrated tier:

The NES Batman Returns by Konami.

It can be a tough game but it's really, really good. It's only missing a 2p mode.

I did on a single credit no less and my feeling is it's almost a fucking great game but hinders itself with some retarded issues, the biggest issue is definitely the fucking flying stage going on for 15 mins.

All of these are fucking great games. However, adventure of batman and robin for snes is probably my favourite. it's just fucking beautiful and plays fluidly.

It honestly isn't you just have to power up either red or green to max and keep it there for the whole game, most screens can be beat just camping out left and right and spamming.

Anyway I guess by default I'd have to pick Batman on NES, I haven't played many Batman games. I'm really garbage at it but it's still fun. I also had the terrible fortune of owning Batman Forever for SNES.

Name me a beat em up with more satisfying combat than batman returns. Seriously U can't.

I'm not talking about complexity or deepness necessarily (but even there it was really good), I mean more specifically about how good it felt to just beat the shit out of people in that game.
