Popeye NES Review





This is an arcade port for the NES.  This is the best version of this game other than the arcade that I have seen.  It is an NES "black label" game with means it was one of the original launch titles.  The game plays identical to the arcade from what I could tell.  You play through 3 stages.  You catch hearts, musical notes, and letters that spell help from Olive Oyle.  You have to avoid Bluto and also a giant condor / eagle thing on the final stage.  You get 1 can of spinach per stage per life that you can use to go after Bluto or the eagle / condor thing. The game is pretty good for what it is.  I give it a 7 out of 10 overall.  Nothing really special about it.  It plays pretty well, however.
