The Amazing Spider-Man vs. The Kingpin, known simply on some box arts as Spider-Man is a platform video game based on the Spider-Man Marvel comic book series. In the game you control Spider-Man, who must defeat various enemies and famous villians in an attempt to stop a bomb and save New York. Mary Jane is also kidnapped by Venom.
The game was initially released on the Sega Master System in 1990, but got more recognition a year later when released on the Sega Mega Drive. This version was later updated for the Mega CD release, with refined levels, graphics and a CD audio soundtrack. The game was very successful, so much so that some sources claim that two thirds of Mega Drive owners owned this game in some form or another. In Australia the game was eventually bundled with The Incredible Hulk.
