{{stub}}'''''{{PAGENAME}}''''' (バットマン), sometimes known as '''''Batman: The Video Game''''' is a sidescrolling action game for the [[Sega Mega Drive]] developed by [[Sunsoft]].
+
'''''{{PAGENAME}}''''' (バットマン), known in the United States as '''''Batman: The Video Game''''', is a [[Sega Mega Drive]] action platform game developed by [[Sunsoft]]. Based on the titular 1989 film ''[[wikipedia:Batman (1989 film)|Batman]]'', the game was first released in Japan, the United States, and Europe in July 1990, and was published by [[Sunsoft]] in all regions except Europe (where it was instead published by [[Sega]]).
  
−
This version is unique to the Mega Drive, and is entirely different to the other ''Batman'' games made by Sunsoft for the [[Nintendo Entertainment System]], [[Game Boy]] and TurboGrafx-16. All four games are based on [[wikipedia:Batman (1989 film)|the 1989 film of the same name]].
+
Sunsoft released identically named ''Batman'' games for the [[NES]], [[Game Boy]] and [[PC Engine]] that were also based on the 1989 film, but these games had different gameplay design.
 +
 
 +
==Story==
 +
After witnessing his parents' brutal murder as a child, millionaire philanthropist Bruce Wayne fights crime in Gotham City disguised as Batman, a costumed hero who strikes fear into the hearts of evildoers. While stopping a raid at the Axis Chemical Factory, Batman knocks the gangster Jack Napier into a vat of chemicals. Napier is driven insane by his new deformed appearance and, calling himself "The Joker," seizes control of Gotham's criminal underworld.
  
 
==Gameplay==
 
==Gameplay==
 +
The game is an action platformer. Enemies continually pour in, and Batman must battle them as he makes his way to the end of the level. Batman moves with {{left}} and {{right}} and crouches with {{down}}. He jumps with {{C}}. He cannot change direction while in mid-air. He can perform a somersault by pressing {{C}} again while holding {{left}} or {{right}}. He defeats enemies by punching them at close range with {{B}} or kicking them with {{down}}+{{B}}. He can also punch in mid-air after jumping. Batman is also equipped with Batarangs, which he throws with {{A}}. He can throw Batarangs in the air or from a crouched position. Batarangs are ranged attacks that travel to the end of the screen and do more damage than punches and kicks, but they are limited in quantity.
 +
 +
Batman also has a grappling hook, which can pull him up to certain platforms. He shoots the hook by pressing {{up}}+{{C}}. While continuing to hold {{up}}, he jumps onto the platform after hooking by pressing {{C}}. He can jump back down from a platform with {{down}}+{{C}}. If there is an enemy where Batman lands after jumping up or down a platform, the enemy is hit without damaging Batman.
 +
 +
There are also autoscrolling shooting segments played as Batman in the Batmobile or the Batwing. The Batmobile driving level is played on a pseudo-3D plane that allows some vertical movement. In these levels, the D-Pad moves the vehicle in any direction, {{B}} fires the primary guns and {{A}} fires the missiles, which automatically seek out enemies. Batman's Batarangs are exchanged for an equivalent number of missiles in these levels.
 +
 +
Batman's life is given by a bar in the status area at the bottom of the screen. He loses life as he takes damage from enemies. If he loses a life, he is revived in place with a brief period of invulnerability. He starts over with 5 Batarangs regardless of how many he held before. Batman's health and Batarang count are carried over from level to level. If the player runs out of lives, the game ends, but it can be continued from the start of the level. Each level ends with a boss encounter, during which the life of the enemy is shown by another bar above Batman's life bar.
 +
 +
===Items===

Items are found throughout the levels. Items repopulate after moving off screen and returning to their location, which can be exploited.

Batman (バットマン), known in the United States as Batman: The Video Game, is a Sega Mega Drive action platform game developed by Sunsoft. Based on the titular 1989 film Batman, the game was first released in Japan, the United States, and Europe in July 1990, and was published by Sunsoft in all regions except Europe (where it was instead published by Sega).

Sunsoft released identically named Batman games for the NES, Game Boy and PC Engine that were also based on the 1989 film, but these games had different gameplay design.

Story

After witnessing his parents' brutal murder as a child, millionaire philanthropist Bruce Wayne fights crime in Gotham City disguised as Batman, a costumed hero who strikes fear into the hearts of evildoers. While stopping a raid at the Axis Chemical Factory, Batman knocks the gangster Jack Napier into a vat of chemicals. Napier is driven insane by his new deformed appearance and, calling himself "The Joker," seizes control of Gotham's criminal underworld.

Gameplay

The game is an action platformer. Enemies continually pour in, and Batman must battle them as he makes his way to the end of the level. Batman moves with Left and Right and crouches with Down. He jumps with C. He cannot change direction while in mid-air. He can perform a somersault by pressing C again while holding Left or Right. He defeats enemies by punching them at close range with B or kicking them with Down+B. He can also punch in mid-air after jumping. Batman is also equipped with Batarangs, which he throws with A. He can throw Batarangs in the air or from a crouched position. Batarangs are ranged attacks that travel to the end of the screen and do more damage than punches and kicks, but they are limited in quantity.

Batman also has a grappling hook, which can pull him up to certain platforms. He shoots the hook by pressing Up+C. While continuing to hold Up, he jumps onto the platform after hooking by pressing C. He can jump back down from a platform with Down+C. If there is an enemy where Batman lands after jumping up or down a platform, the enemy is hit without damaging Batman.

There are also autoscrolling shooting segments played as Batman in the Batmobile or the Batwing. The Batmobile driving level is played on a pseudo-3D plane that allows some vertical movement. In these levels, the D-Pad moves the vehicle in any direction, B fires the primary guns and A fires the missiles, which automatically seek out enemies. Batman's Batarangs are exchanged for an equivalent number of missiles in these levels.

Batman's life is given by a bar in the status area at the bottom of the screen. He loses life as he takes damage from enemies. If he loses a life, he is revived in place with a brief period of invulnerability. He starts over with 5 Batarangs regardless of how many he held before. Batman's health and Batarang count are carried over from level to level. If the player runs out of lives, the game ends, but it can be continued from the start of the level. Each level ends with a boss encounter, during which the life of the enemy is shown by another bar above Batman's life bar.

Items

Items are found throughout the levels. Items repopulate after moving off screen and returning to their location, which can be exploited.
