The Jappanesse own us as far as video games go. They showed us a good Back to the Future game, and you wouldn't know it unless you're old, but they still PWN Madden to hell with the Tecmo Super Bowl game.
This gameplay is identical to another game...right down to the gold coin with a star...but I swear i can't place the name.
Anyway, the design reminds me of T&C Surf Designs. I know that's a little too far back for some of you younguns and your new fangled Gears-a-ma-whatsits.
Pros: Fun gameplay, just jumping on enemies and going fast, like Sonic the Hedgehog and the music is just amazing. It's really fun.
Cons: The bosses are either too easy or too long to fight. Also, when you get to the later levels, the level design is flawed. It's confusing to navigate. Overall, this game is way better than the NES games by LJN but it's not great. 7/10
I think this was one of the better Back to the Future games before the new one from Telltale Games.
I still own a North American SNES that I actually had modified at a video game store to play Japanese cartridges, so I'm sure I probably wished I had gotten this game for it somehow.
they really gotta release this on Wii Virtual Console!!! seriously! they released Lost Levels and other games only released in Japan so they could probably do this one.
A good Back to the Future Game? Someone made a good back to the future game, and it was only in Japan?! What the F*** is wrong with this world?! We get these games (LJN games) but not this one?!!!- AVGN
Remember when Marty had to climb that building while kick flipping cops? Remember when Marty fought a 12 foot tall Biff in the cafe by kick flipping him with his hoverboard?
@CartoonBlast229z Yep - the Angry Video Game Nerd has spoken. Why in the love of smeg was this game ONLY released in Japan? They keep all the good stuff to themselves!
@TheGreatGodot ese juego es una mismisima obra maestra en comparacion con el de la nes ke fue toda una mierda sacada del culo pero bueno en japon la super nintendo manda!
Problems with this game...the enemies you saw in this game had nothing to do with the movie except for the boss parts but the characters look ridiculous and the same music plays throughout the game.
what the fuck are you talking about? you don't remember the part where marty had to keep hitting switches to make the TV sets pop out and hit Biff in the head at the diner? watch the movie again.
@michiyoyoshiku its way better then ANY of the other games made about the movie and follows the story better.. and gameplay wise its miles better then any of the back to the future games
The Hover board is was actually real; I have the DVD box set and I believe it was matel who actually came out with it. However, before it was released to the market, parental groups protested and set it was dangerous, so the plans to release it were pulled. It works with an electromagnetic field. It would have been a fun toy
If you actually did some research you would know that producer Robert Zemeckis later said it was a joke, and he apologised for misleading people. I only wished he wasn't kidding...
If you cut-out the tabs on an American (NTSC) one, you can. If you are from Europe (PAL), though, then you are out of luck. Seeing as you are an American, you can play this. American SNESes will play Super Famicom games from Japan except for Super FX games.
i know. this would actually be SO popular in america, australia and places in europe because theres massive groups of BTTF followers in them places too!! i'd deffo get it!
but i seriously think they need to make an upto date good BTTF game, bc nowadays graphics are amazing on games and there'd be SOO many people buy a BTTF game
I can't believe so many people are saying that this game look familiar to sonic and megaman! It doesn't look anywhere similar. I'd say it looks more familiar to sparkster.
Don't believe it. I have actually played said game, and, while I can overlook the brutal repetitiveness of it, there is no way I'm gonna sit by and not say that the third boss, not only is it irrelevant to the movie, but is thoroughly unbeatable. Even on an Emulator. Even if you work on him for over a half hour (which is what I did). he is unbeatable.
Ahh man, why did us Americans were given great movies but sucky games based on the great films and the japanese were given probably the greatest BTTF game?
I remember reading about this game in a video game magazine a long time ago. And it gave it a review and said that they were working on porting this to the american version. But I guess that never happened. I'm a HUGE BTTF fan. I'm pushing for a "Lego BTTF" game like Indiana Jones & Star Wars. WHY NOT?? It Would Rock!
Too bad this was based on an American movie but only released in Japan. This game is actually decent compared to the 2 other pieces of shit we got here.
This may be a sonic ripoff but who cares, everyone rips off, actually not rip off mario in a platform game is virtually impossible, so why critize something because it's too similar to other thing. If ripoffs were forbidden, then the world would be too boring, only sonic having it's gameplay, only mario stomping on enemies, and so on.
