........whoa, I think I just really embarassed myself...... Anyway, this is a platformer by Konami for the NES which came out in Japan in 1991 and North America a year later. It came out in Europe through Konami Europe's division "Palcom", which was most likely the european equivelant of the "Defunct by then" Ultra Games. Anyway, it's based on the cartoon and comic book of the same name which I've never watched or read, but I did try to watch the first episode one time and I saw like the second half of one episode centuries ago. Fun platformer. I have the japanese Famicom edition, and it's one of my most cherished Famicom cartridges, because Ilooked for it for centuries until I finally found it. Konami also did an arcade game based on this show, but that game was completely different.
Favorite Game: Shenmue I, MGS, Snatcher, Zelda: Ocarina Of Time.

One of my favourite cartoons, quickly became one of my favourite arcade games. Konami sure were the masters of making a bunch of arcade games that were true to their sources. X-Men, TMNT, Asterix and The Simpsons; all were classic beat em ups that matched the mood and look of the cartoons.
Bucky 'O Hare was probably my second favourite of the lot though, the best being TMNT: Turtles In Time. Great game though.
So true, Henry! Konami didn't mess around when it came to using a great movie/TV/comic book/whatever license! They also made a pretty cool arcade game based on G.I. Joe. I wonder what it would be like if Konami had did a Ghostbusters game.
