Episode 19: X-Men Game Origins: 1989-1996

In this X-citing episode, Deucy and I cover the first seven years of X-Men games! Created by Jack Kirby and Stan Lee, the iconic X-Men comics originally released in 1963. As video games recovered from the crash in the early 80's, it was inevitable that the world would see games based on their favorite mutants and we sure did... We start at the beginning with the disastrous The Uncanny X-Men (published by LJN, surprise) for the NES and talk about our memories of dreaming to play this game as it became the ultimate nightmare. We'll also cover Wolverine for the NES, the incredible 1992 Arcade game,  X-Men on the Genesis and Game Gear, Children of the Atom, Mutant Apocalypse for the Super Nintendo and more! This episode will cover games released between 1989 and 1996, we'll release a Part 2 later so keep an ear out for that. We had a lot of fun going through this games and are excited to share it with you.   Music: 0:00 Here Comes the X-Men (X-Men Arcade) 10:19 Wolverine's Theme (X-Men: Mutant Apocalypse) 1:31:00 Space Port (Theme of Juggernaut; X-Men Children of the Atom)   Write us!
