The Shadow (SNES)

Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of movie tie-in games? Certainly not the Shadow.

Did this ever actually come out? I hear a lot of conflicting stories.

It was released in Europe, I think, and a US version was planned, but it got canceled.

Funny thing about The Shadow... I can barely tell this apart from a Final Fight hack. :P

I may do a better recording of this game sometime. The video quality turned out pretty sucky.

OMG i played this game when i was a kid, why you say it never came out? May be i got a leaked version or something cause all the laber said was ''The shadow" without any kind of art.

I remember there's a stage witha Bomb in a kind of pendulum and you have to destroy it.

I remember seeing screenshots for this in a magazine when i was a kid. Too bad it never got released. :(

[ShadowTheHedgehog157]

It was unreleased due to the movie's low box office sales.

I'm just kidding

@Erudecorp I've played this before and invisibility is definitely one of the special effects.

Overall for a movie tie-in, this was a relatively okay game. It played itself and copied a tried and tested formula that resulted in a game that was fun to play for a little while after seeing the movie (or reading one of the pulp magazines or listening to the radio show). The only really annoying thing was the lack of the Shadow's cape (even though it was on the cover).
