Product Information

While some fans may think Michael Jackson's first video game appearance was in "Space Channel 5," it was years before that. "Michael Jackson's Moonwalker" for the Sega Genesis is loosely based on the film of the same name. In this Genesis game, the dastardly Mr. Big has kidnapped children from around the world. Pop sensation Michael Jackson is the only hero who can rescue these kids from Mr. Big's clutches. Like the film, the game starts off in Club 30. However, it will quickly diverge from the movie's plot as you traverse caves, forests, and even outer space. "Michael Jackson's Moonwalker" was developed and published by Sega and released in 1990. "Michael Jackson's Moonwalker" for the Genesis shares the same name as the arcade version, but the gameplay is much different. The Sega Genesis version of "Moonwalker" is a side-scrolling game instead of the three-quarters view of the arcade. This video game will still have Michael rescuing children. In each level, there are six or more children that Michael Jackson must search for and rescue. While some kids are in plain sight, others are hiding behind doors, bushes, and windows. When found, the children restore some of your health.While you're searching for children, Mr. Big's goons are searching for you. Michael Jackson has an impressive array of combat moves at his disposal, all based on his dance moves. Michael Jackson will kick, point to the stars, grab his crotch, and even moonwalk to defeat his enemies. Each dance move Jackson performs will send sparkles out in front of him, crushing anyone who touches them. When you're surrounded by enemies, it's time to use Michael's magic attacks. While he spins, every enemy he touches is instantly defeated. Release the button after two seconds to have Michael throw his hat like a boomerang. Hold the button down for five seconds to use the power of song. Michael Jackson and his enemies will start dancing, which will instantly destroy all characters on the screen. At certain points in the game, you can even turn into a giant robot.It wouldn't be a game starring Michael Jackson if his music was absent. Luckily, "Moonwalker" has an entire catalog of songs from the king of pop. In the background of every stage, an appropriate Jackson song plays. For example, "Smooth Criminal" will play in the background of Club 30. When you're on the street fighting gang members, "Beat It" will play. Licensed Jackson music will also play during his magic attack. Small clips from songs such as "Billie Jean" will have your enemies dancing and then exploding. Like the other "Moonwalker" games, this Genesis game features digitized voices. Jackson will shout "Who's Bad" and "I'm Bad" at specific points of the game. The sounds his character makes are taken directly from the singer as well. "Moonwalker" is one of the few licensed games that Jackson stars in. This game is for more than just fans of the singer. Fans of action video games will also love the fast-paced excitement. With its fantastic soundtrack and excellent animation, this title is a must-own entry for your gaming collection. Fans of all ages will enjoy what this title has to offer.

  • Shamone!

    This game is dope. It is challenging, if you like side scrolling 80s platformers. It's like if you mixed Shinobi with E-SWAT. It also has a great soundtrack. Prepare to practice practice practice.
