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)

You should watch gothom
@@randommay3573 no he shouldn't
Cinemassacre: John Lithgow should have been the scarecrow.
so how was your take on the most recent riddler in le batman 2022?
Funny how exactly what James wanted from a new Batman movie in this video came true this year
I hear theres a sequel in the works
cant believe the joker sequel is gonna be a musical
"Farming, they call it." "Yeah, well back in my day I called it fill my shit up." Lol, I always love the James/Mike interactions.
10:02 Lol! I guess you called it.
Animation parts:
19:35 "Oh my goddd. That was the biggest fuck up I've ever seen. >joker laugh"
19:52 Masters of the Universe toy analysis
23:42 Adam West scraping his asshole across the floor?
24:42 Terminator
25:00 What's up there?
25:32 Run and jump over him. OHHHHH JUMP! AAAHHHHHHH! NYAH! I'M BATMAN! I'M BATMAAAAAANNNNN!
25:50 I thought it was over. I thought it was over I DIDN'T KNOW THERE WAS A BOSSSSSS!
10:02 James pitches the Robert Pattinson Batman movie
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.
amen brother amen
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'
yea to old for that stuff but my boys would wreck it from playing like total melt down
shit has changed tho
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.
25:30 Best part. *Nyaaaa~~~ BATMAN I'm BATMAN!!!*
WHERE IS CDi POKEMON TOURNAMENT PART 5 DAMMIT! ASDGFHNGBJGN
(jk) Take your time...
Blackpapalink
Part 5? You mean Part 6. ;p
Achille12345 Yes I did. . . . *Slowly walks away in shame*
Oh it's you!
It's been like 4 years or something, where is CD-I Super Guns Fight 3?
SpectreAmazing
When it's going to win the actual poll than I made the link is on my Achille12345 Wiki. ;p
One of my favorite NES games. So glad you guys are playing this.
Yay
Hatsune Miku OMG I HATE YOU. EVERYBODY IN MY FUCKING SCHOOL IS TALKING ABOUT YOU 24/7. OH MAH GAWD WHY YOU DOD THIS MIKU
That... escalated quickly.
Um im sorry?
***** woff >:3
"Stands for bullshit!" You know James and Mike are good friends when they're on the same wavelength.
Almost eerily so...
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
does he know?
The official phrase for James and mike Monday's is "It's hard to talk and play at the same time."
Which is entirely true
Yep.
+GalacticGamer97 "Come up here, and get some fist" James Rolfe, 2016.
And there other favorite thing to say is oh back in college always bragging about college smh
25:30 - that was some intense gaming I haven't seen in long time :) Well done, Mike!
"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
The best Batman game of the 20th century.
10:01 It seems that they’re following James’ words now with the New Batman movie coming out.
24:00 for the animation part
thank you good sir
Thank you.
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!
That part at the end with Mike running and jumping over those Terminator dudes - That was amazing!
Mike: That looks like a toy I had, like Masters of the Universe or something...
James: I don't give a shit right now.
The Jam Man i read this just as he said it lol. and i had the toy too. it had a ripcord that made the base turn around
Which minute does he say that?
Fede4K darude sandstorm
Lol I died when James said that XD
"If Adam West had to do this, he'd be f****d."
I am personally offended.
Adam West Batman I love that game.
Same here.
Adam West Batman ^^
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.
The best batman game though is still Batman dark tomorrow for the xbox
Hey alpha!!
Game the fuck on AOS. Heheheh. . . I just realized your initials are the same initials Castlevania Aria of Sorrow.
The music in Master Blaster blew my mind too. Great stuff.
Blaster Master* and I totally agree...great soundtrack hard game...finally beat it!
Batman on the NES... best movie game adaptation ever.
MegamanNG Xmen origins, Wolverine for xbox 360, ps3
MegamanNG Spiderman 2
Just love screaming "I'M BATMAN!" when franticly running, jumping and punching.
Fun, insightful, eventful. This was probably the best James & Mike Mondays. :)
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.
Plus! that laughter at 7:07
*****
Sure, that was a fun episode, but Batman here had so many tight gameplay situations. Excitebike kinda lacked in that department.
Holy crap! I loved that game. The final battle with Joker was my favorite part.
Oh man, I had an absolute blast watching this. Wicked funny, looks like you guys had fun!
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.
I think this has been my favorite James & Mike Mondays yet. You guys should do a full play through!
Yup, this is the best James and Mike Monday hands down. The last few min is hilarious.
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.
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.
a lot of Sunsoft games have good music
LOVED THIS GAME!!! One of the best Batman games ever, not to mention one of the best NES games ever.
Great video guys!
Zombies Ate My Neighbors for this October. A lot of different enemies from classic movies to talk about and definitely fun co-op gameplay.
Farming. No back in my day I called it filling my shit up. That is so a quote from my childhood
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.
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.
KombatGod
You called bosses end monster? Weird. My family always called them the "main dude"
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
***** 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.
"Go go!"
"Look what you did!!"
Hahahhaah
You guys still are awesome after all these years!
Love you, Cinemassacre!
The music and cutscenes in this game are awesome. Hard as hell though.
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!
They DID a batman movie just about the Riddler. Kudos to you James.
Always enjoying watching you guys play classic Nintendo games. Brings back some great memories. Thanks!!
This is an old video but I have to say: You guys are awesome! I don't know how many times I've laughed with you and really enjoyed listening to your conversations while gaming. Keep it up guys!
The goats
This was the most intense James & Mike Monday ever! I'M THE GODDAMN BATMAN
One of the best James & Mike episodes I've seen. I remember playing this "1 player" kinda games with a couple of friends.
This was really good, really enjoyed this.
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.
22:12 Unison "It stands for 'Bullshit'". Great minds think alike.
21:41 "Back in my day..." 😂😂😂
I really enjoy watching these james and mike mondays segments. just pure nostalgia . keep it up
Lol farming, well back in my day it was call fill my shit up
I didn't know any proper gaming speech until 2010.
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.
I'm glad you mentioned the music! That's my favorite part about this game and why i clicked on this video.
”That thing on top of a chimney”. That’s exactly, what those things were that the Nerd thought were beer steins in ”Action 52”. They’re like some kind of filters, I guess.
FINALLY- a legitimate and entertaining review of my favorite videogame of all time! THANKS JAMES AND MIKE!! Keep at it!
Dude this is a let's play, not a review.
"Stands for Bullshit!"
I think all of us said it at the same time
Lol at 1824 that sinister chuckle. I love these vids because you can tell you guys have been playing games for years together. Keep up the great content because I always look forward to these vids on Mondays!
yeeeeaaaahhh boy! You guys need to keep making your monday videos like this one, i felt like i was right there with you playing Batman, i was getting nervous and excited watching you play. The video length is good too, great job!
Go fuck em up, go fuck em up!
I'm gonna fuck em up!
lol....Part 2: Bootsy comes in and beats the game.
This absolutely has to be the finest James & Mike vid so far. Definitely looking forward to seeing Part Two. B-)
Bringing back memories, i remember kids at school word would spread that so and so got Batman! It was a huge deal
'JUST GO FUCK HIM UP, GO FUCK HIM UP'
awesome advice.
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.
I remember the Gameboy version being hard but pretty fun.
Great video James and Mike, loved your previous Batman videos and this is one of the best, I played this game when I was like only 6 years old, very hard, I don't remember beating it! Will play it again on my PC, er, NES.
I loved this one. My favorite James & Mikes Mondays.
James makes a good point about the Batman movies. I wish can see the Tim Burton style Batman movies make a return.
that part near the end, that adrenalin rush, can't find that in games today
Uh, yes you can. There has and will always will be both shitty and amazing games.
don't put words in my mouth, I didn't say there aren't any good games today, I was just saying that the kind of adrenaline rush you get from games like this can't be found in games today.
@@gundamnduke0 do you still agree with this statement in 2022?
Genuinely curious
Those bomb dropping things in the ceiling have a trick to them: The bombs can be destroyed with a single punch, but it's safest to hit them while they're still falling down so that they don't zoom into you, so get close to where they drop and punch away. Once you've destroyed three of them without collecting the powerups they drop, NO MORE will drop down until you collect the powerups, and even once you do there's a delay before more will drop, so just grab the powerups that were dropped and run like Hell! :B
Also, the batterangs do damage based on the amount of time they stay in contact with the enemy, so hitting an enemy at the edge of a batterang's range will cause the most amount of damage.
This was probably my favorite James & Mike video.
James! You called the new Batman movie with the Riddler as a perfect only villian movie.
thing on top of a chimnney is called a whirly bird
guys, I gotta say.. this is the most fun I've had watching in a long time xD Mike's reactions to jumping up with "the green guys" and the "chimney things" lmao... And like James said, "my wife is upstairs, prolly wondering wtf" lol.. oh man, you guys GOTTA do more of these vids. good, but hard games :P
I played this game so much as a kid that I had it down to a science. As long as you are dealing damage to an enemy and they are blinking, they can't harm you. So you can jump into enemies at an angle while punching and be standing on them while punching them to death. If you punch fast enough it also slows their animation down allowing for extra hits and more damage dealt. It's how you beat The Joker. Just jump into him, kneel down and keep punching until he runs to the other side and quickly follow him and jump punch into him again. As long as you land on the right spot, just like with the second boss, his shots will go over you so won't have to ever deal with them. I think it's something like 100 punches to take him out. I would race through this game while listening to the 1989 Batman soundtrack by Prince. Those were the days!
gran juego de la epoca, muchas horas estube jugando con el jeje
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 :)
It's nice you guys are having fun with these games, love the vids!
Oh man at the end when Mike was just running/jumping past those green guys and those green ceiling fucker things! I was seriously waving my arms and yelling at my screen for him to keep going! Holy cow that was fun to watch.
Usually Mike shines in gameplay but i was super impressed with James this time around. Good fucking work, man. You practiced!!! haha
I dunno, dude... the way Mike was handling that one part with the wall jumps and turbines and on one health container... that shit was pretty boss, bro.
James wasnt awful. Im really impressed
James - "farming"' what they call.
Mike - "yeah, well back in my day I called it "fill my shit up".
I'm sure a thousand people already mentioned this, but in level two you can punch those things that fall from the ceiling to farm health and weapon energy. You just stand on the very edge of the platform and punch the claw things as they fall. There are actually "farming" locations that you've missed in several games you've featured.
I freaking love this game though, it really held up well over the years and it probably is the single best movie-based video game ever made.
This was excellent. Brings back memories.
It stands for... bat.
Synchronized: It stands for BULLSHIT.
lmao
Batman and the Nerd PRICELESS
18:51 lol good one. "what the heck are they doing down there"?
How to leave us in such a cliffhanger... I was getting so excited by the end and then it stopped and I was like whatttttt. Best ever keep it up and I love watching you two play *-*
Animations scenes start at 19:50.
I want to see a Batman movie with Mr. Freeze done right
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"
***** Yeah, he could have been if it weren't for the overall tone of the film + the silly puns...
***** CHILL OUT!
Clay Bones COOL PARTY!
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.
9:47 boy that aged like fine wine
The soundtrack to this game is great...even translates well when people try to cover it with live instruments
I'd like to see Clayface in a Batman Movie
That would be interesting but i fear it would suffer because it'd have to be all CGI.
Hermaeus Mora to be fair, on the other hand... I'm sure he wouldn't have looked much better as Claymation either
Hermaeus Mora It could be stop motion. I mean, he is clay after all.
19:53 for the animated version! 23:30 part 2
So much fun watching you guys play this
This is one of my favorite episodes.
I recall 'Prince of Persia - Sands of Time' jumps were much harder to master than these...
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.
Jay Reviews I've seen it far too many times, I assure you...
I remember when you have to triangle jump your way up the statue to get the dagger
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.
But sands of time was a lot more forgiving with the rewind ability.
If I had the cash, I'd order the NES cartridge from ebay immediately, can't go wrong with Batman using Ninja Gaiden mechanics ^^
this was the first game I ever finished that gave me a sense of super-accomplishment when I finally finished it.
I still remember it as if it was yesterday, spend all night playing it and daylight was upon me when I finally beat the joker!!
one of my favorite vid you made guys, this game seems very cool.
just recently beat this. It was reaaally fun but hard work
Yeah Megaman is a character you don't hear much about here since his games are, y'know, good.
good back then for games back then not nowadays buddy
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.
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?
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.
Dr. Octo
Because Capcom doesn't care about blue armored people.
Brings back so many good and frustrating memories.
Epic ending. Brilliant!
(looking forward to part 2)
