- This is a video walkthrough / playthrough / runthrough / etc of Spider-Man and the X-Men: Arcade's Revenge for the SNES.
Considering how many times I've played through this game, I'm still amazed I haven't figured out the usefulness of that one attack Storm can do...I know I don't complete her stages with flying colors, but at least I didn't lose a life...I guess I could have tried a bit harder, but oh well. With you being able to refill her "life" up rather easily, I guess you don't have to try too hard.... - Hry

@@irishboy1097 Thank you, and God Bless. Jeremy's dad
This game made me rage like there was no tomorrow when i was a kid......good times
Exactlyyyyyy
Same here
I never could win this game. But it was a dope game back then.
Ya same
Dude you're bringing the good times back what a hero
"Hey Storm! You made the cut. You're in the game."
Storm: "Yes!!"
"...you get all the water levels"
Storm: :-/
+Greg Hansen lol
+Greg Hansen it never made sense to me to give storm the water levels as shed just electrocute everyone and everything including herself if she shot out a lightning bolt.
AmyLeeRoxMySox They should have given her some cool flight level of some sort.
Agree totally. But the game was based loosely on Classic X-Men (sorry don't know original prints number) 28-30. A true product of its time.
+Nar Comic Underworld It never made sense to me that Storm needed to keep raising the water level to get through her part of the game when she has the power to fly. I agree, I think they should have given her a flying level instead.
the only level I could beat was the first one with spiderman, lol
Give me five :,c
Lol. I thought I was the only one
noob!
Same same
Same here lol
this game is very hard
😂
So difficult
Only at first once I learned the map layouts it got east
Try maximum carnage 🤣
Nope
"Hey, guys, I got a great idea. Know how we've let Spider-Man shoot infinite webs, Wolverine can use his claws whenever, Cyclops can spam his beam, and Storm can fire unlimited bolts of lightning? Let's give Gambit the only power of the game with an ammo limit! Also, let's make Gambit's levels the ONLY ones where you can't take your time. Oh, and Gambit has the worst health bar!"
ಠ_ಠ
Yeah I think Gambit was as far as I ever got.
Yet it makes sense since gambit cards run out. And Gambits level is the best. sometimes play the game just to play gambit then turn it off lol. The other levels are boring. Hated the fact i had to deal with spidermans stage before anything. And the music was the bomb. 70's inspired
but gambit has the infinite life cheat
Best music was on Gambit stage...also on of the hardest times beat.
@@dimelo8826 Spider-Man runs out of webs since he uses web-shooters, but in the game he has infinite webbing. One way or the other is all I ask.
No argument about the music - the tracks in it are killer.
That opening theme is about as Spider-Man as you can get
Dat Wolvie vs Juggernaut run tho...edge of my seat!
I always remembered this game more than any other X-men game. Finally found it. I just remember thinking it was so weird and being super hard.
This is when games were hard to beat. Spending hours to figure out how to pass a level, now you can beat a game in four hours after you buy it!
One of if not the best intro themes ever XD
wow the music is incredible for this game. DAMN!
+abysmalvsmarcus it is ;) i always listen to this music with my mp3 and whislting like crazy xD
I will sau upfront that LJN damn did step up their game when it came to their SNES games.
Man this game bring me back! I could never get passed the Gambit level...
This game was hard as fuck!
Sweet music though lol
GrassValleyGreg Indeed! Speaking of which, do you know where I can download the soundtrack for the Genesis version? I've been looking all around for it with no luck.
Ayk S
No clue- and incidentally, I was a SNES kid hehe
GrassValleyGreg Oh, OK.
I've noticed that a lot of the early video games were too difficult for their demographic. Us 30-somethings had to be very persistent as children to beat some of those games. I remember beating NES versions of Hunt for the Red October and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles that would frustrate a lot of gamers.
The White Queen looks like a dominatrix who's been hitting the buffet. O_O
it's not the white queen. It's Storm
80s babies had the best childhood ever we had Super Nintendo, Sega Genesis, Ninja Turtles, Power Rangers, and Mortal Kombat not to mention the action figure era was booming back then, do kids even play with action figures anymore????
Man!!!! I still remember the school parties at the skating rink where they would play the TMNT theme, or the Power Rangers' theme!!! Good 'ol days...

Snes was in the 90s buddy,
+666thrashallday he's an 80'baby but had his childhood in the 90's.
Because they are all trapped by Arcade and he designed each area to put them at a disadvantage. Aside from sticking her in space where there is no atmosphere at all for her to control, sticking Storm underwater is the most disadvantageous place for her to fight (it doesn't help that she's claustrophobic IIRC).
After all these years, i finally get to see what was beyond me and my friends capabilities on beating this game. Didn't have cheat codes or internet back then you had to pull all your resources together.
Never could get passed Juggernaut.
Me too, I didn't think you had to keep slicing and slicing him until he exploded.
You and me Both!
Edward Pignataro IV same, that level Still haunts me to this day!
bluedan1873 glad I'm not the only one...
DJ Insanity every now and then i consider buying a snes to replay my favourites and finally beat Juggernaut. I'm 36...lol.
props to this guy this is a really hard game
Man, watching this took me back at least 15 years. Oh the good memories.
Im going to have to find me an SNES, this game, and a few other games for some nostalgia gaming.... damn this brings me back
I was thinking about playing this game again but then I was reminded of that Juggernaut level and it killed any and all desire to relive this childhood memory.
+Paul Eitel Jesus, I see why. Who thought that was a good idea for a game? lol
Memories, memories.
Man, this game is hard!
Gambit's theme is so chill
I got this for my birthday in the 90's. Never could beat it!!
If there was one thing that people would remember about this game, it would be the music ;)
Storm was claustrophobic back in the day. Being her biggest fan that underwater level traumatized me. It was so difficult =(
Yeah it was a weird level
The mix of terror and joy I remember having when Carnage popped up out of nowhere
Apocalypse...one of the most powerful mutants ever...gets owned by wolverine claws in a fun house...
It's a robot, not the real deal. Arcade has a knack for making robot minions and dressing them up as different characters. Check out the boss fight Gambit has with the "Black Queen". Her arms blow up and you can see wiring and stuff. Also explains why most of the enemies explode.
I beat my head bloody against this game. Just watching this I feel my muscle memory kicking in. Traumatizing....
omg as soon as i heard the intro music...instant nostalgia. i had the hardest time with this game as kid but never stopped playing it, i dont think i ever beat gambits stage
Dude, I haven't played this game since 5th grade, and more importantly, I haven't heard this music since then, either.
Thank you so much for the nostalgia.
You rock, dude.
20 years later and i still can't pass this damn game. excellent job in finishing the game dude. you kicked ass.
that first cyclops stage was a NIGHTMARE....my heart is pounding right now just watching you do this......I don't think I ever did beat it, I think its been 21 years since I played it - but its all comin back
I remember this being the most brutally difficult X-Men game of all time. I played this as a kid and this game kicked my ass. I loved the music though. It's just a shame you don't really get to use Storm's full powers. Her stages could've been the most awesome, but instead you're restricted to swimming and shooting lightning from your eyes (which would be pretty dangerous and unsafe underwater).
Near the end, Storm gets to play like the others, but that's it. Could've been every one of her stages, but Arcade had to be a dick and place her in claustrophobic stages. Sigh...
probably one of my favorite games growing up. Never was able to beat any of the second levels. The devs really understood the characters when they made this (like how storm is claustrophobic and it made me feel it in her levels.) The music is probably the most notable thing about this game though, everyone had their own themes and it really brought life to the levels as well as being really suited for the characters. I dont know why so many people are hating on this game, this game was way beyond its time, every character had different gameplay aspects that kept it from getting stale. The level designs are aesthetically unique and offer a variety of gameplay. Seriously, there were only a handful of other games of this caliber.
Thanks for the play-through. Though this is THE one i couldn't beat, i gain some closure through this video.
Beast! My whole childhood unraveled before my eyes, I could never even beat any of those first levels :(
I could, just the Wolverine one...then Juggernaut lived up to his name.
This was such a horrible memory of my childhood. Being stuck with this game for 5 days for using one of my Blockbuster rentals on it.
Hehe, I think I might have had some nervous breakdowns after trying again and again to beat this game, only to come upon that "Game Over" sign again and again. As much as I thought the music was pretty cool, even that would start to get to me.
Some of the funkiest music in all of videogaming!!!
The Soundtrack is awesome fits perfectly
you are a master. thak you for this video
I used to have this game back when I did own a Super Nintendo. Watching this video did remind me how frustrating this game could be at times. I now see why I sometimes did not like it and thought it was not really any fun. It is just one of those games where you have to actually know what to do and be able to get through it without any major difficulties. I do know I liked playing Spider-Man better than when playing any of the X-Men. I always did seem to like him a lot better than any of them.
Jugernauggt truly was unstoppable in this game. Like that level felt like it went on forever...
This game has pissed me off since I was a teen. I've been dying to see a longplay of this game just to see the 2nd stages and to the end.
I love the little jumps you made after beating juggernaut, like you were saying "oh thank god"
nice run. this could possibly be one of the hardest games for the snes.
I remember in 1992 I received this game for christmas and it was so hard for me at 8 years. Now I see again, I think is underrated, the gameplay is cool and the music great.
Oh man! this game was HAAARD as hell, I remember how frustrating it was when I was a kid. I still can't beat some stages (most of them...)
Holy nostalgia. I was 6 years old when I got this for my bday in 1992. I have the pictures of me unwrapping it.
This music was so on point!!!
El mejor juego del mundo y fue mi primer regalo de navidad!
It does take a bit of practice. For me back in the day, the hardest stages were Gambit's first and Wolverine's second. There were some easy ones, and some that just took a bit of patience to work with, but those two (especially Wolverine's second) kicked my butt as a kid...Thankfully I've gotten better...
lol Apocalypse just chillin in the funhouse.
+GrassValleyGreg Arcade recreates villians with robots. This game kind of makes sense when you realize it's a Arcade funhouse.
exodore2000
Ahhh, indeed.
Back in my younger days, I couldn't beat this game. But now watching this Walkthrough was worth it! Great Gameplay 💯
Jeremy would have appreciated the compliment. Thanks, Jeremy's dad
@@SaikyoMogThe person who completed this run passed away?
@@jigglynorris2559 czcams.com/video/JW2JXL2erLw/video.html Will explain the story of my son Jeremy (SaikyoMog). Thanks for watching the channel, Jeremy's dad
Well, thank you for posting this. I could never beat this game, either because I couldn't figure out how to hurt the bosses, or because some of the levels went on too long.
This game had one of the best soundtracks ever in a nes game!
I remember this being one of the few games that was so flipping difficult as a kid I never could get past any level but the initial one and Storm's first...
Game gulu ki vabe down load korbo
Game gulu ami khelenj kokhono..Amake khelar sujog kore din
Great job man. Nice to see these walkthroughs. Good lunchtime material.
Or if you can stream youtube on the TV, something to have on while you fiddle on the computer...Especially some of my longer RPGs ;)
That's what I do when at home actually. Just really impressive to watch. I just saw your strider one and had no idea it was you until I finished :)
Yeah I agree, I remember this game being insanely hard when I was a kid. Thank you for uploading, always wanted to see how this game ended.
I never end this game! Now I can see the end. Thank you for the walkthrough^^
I had this game as a kid and never beat it. But, after quite a bit of practice (and luck with that freaking Juggernaut stage) I was able to not too much trouble with it. Though I did wish that Juggernaut stage was easier...Unless there was some huge thing I was missing....
As far as I know, the further you get ahead of Juggernaut, the faster he chases you. The trick is to stay as close to him as possible and hit him every chance you get. Don't expect to kill him quickly though. There's no real trick to beating him. He always dies just before you finish the stage. Probably one of the hardest bosses in any XMen game.
man i was never able to beat this but its such a classic in my life. love it forever and the music is outstanding
Tim and Geoff Follin could really make some amazing soundtracks.
I just wish the rest of the game was as good as the music.
I just realized...this is an LJN game.
I just remembered...AVGN
I just recalled...me playing this game as a kid
I just regurgitated...at how much I hated trying to beat this game
...it all makes sense. LJN = Misery.
Music: good (for the time).
Game: impossible
Good??? More like the Best of all time.
Love this score. Brings back memories.
In that opening screen, Gambit looks like he just saw The Blob and The Kingpin giving each other sponge baths.
Shouldn't Storm (and everything else) be electrocuted since she used lighting underwater?
You'd think so...
... Noooo ....
+Big Fat Man Physics don't apply in video games apparently
I don't know... I may be in the minority here, but as a comic book genre illustrator and long time fan of the classic super hero genre, I really appreciated the hell out of this game. Contrary to people's thoughts, I think this game had fantastic music that tapped into the 70s era of super heroes (think late 70s Spider-Man TV movie as well as Spider-Man and his Amazing Friends cartoon show of the same era). It doesn't get any purer than that, guys. I especially love the music in Wolverine's fun house level. It's amazingly well done. Gambit had that badass techno beat that shifted from the 70s style music to a more modern 90s style (which is very appropriate) and Storm had what was probably the eeriest of sound tracks on the game. All of them were beautifully done, and no two alike. :)
Second, the graphics. Ok, so they weren't ground breaking, but it was hardly anything I'd call horrible. The game touches upon a very classic arcade style and I can very much appreciate the clarity of each map and their enemy sprites. It's what I'd call, moderate standard graphics. Nothing amazing, but good enough to not distract or break the game play.
Speaking of game play, the controls are sharp. Razor sharp. Not something LJN was known for in their later catalog of games (they must have had a good team of programmers working on this specific game). You have to agree, the hit detection is spot on, from Cyclops optic blasts to even Wolverine's tiny pixelated claws.
The challenge of the game is all pattern based. There really is no unpredictable chores to get through. Once you gain decent memory of the maps you play, you'll eventually know how to get around these hurdles, just like in the video (which was done beautifully, SaikyoMog). However, if you go into this expecting to beat it on your first try....well.. you have the wrong approach. This is what I call a "true game". It's meant to challenge you. Keep you on your toes and make fast decisions. It's not like modern games where things are downplayed for you so you can be kept happy and think you're top pro. This one needs you to pull all your resources together and stay focused ....and have patience. lol.
It's definitely not easy but it's also not impossible.. You just can't get complacent with this game like you can with others.
If there's anything I don't like about this game, it's two things. No save points and no continues. Honestly, this game would be a pleasure to play with every day if it had at least 3 or more continues after all your characters bit the dust. Once you're out of lives, that's it. It's over. You start right from the beginning. I can understand why many would find this frustrating after crawling on their knees through each map. I know I was. But there is a glimmer of hope in regards to continues and lives. There is a known trick you can do over and over and over with Gambit on his first map. There are vids of this. You can accumulate as many lives as you want and this alone will give you a much better shot at beating the game. Just be sure you pick a day you know you'll have all to yourself because... no save points.
So... all in all, this is actually not a bad game at all. Just don't expect Super Mario World level of easy here.
As someone who never really read the comics and didn't even knew half of this game's cast when playing this as a little kid, the individual level design and game mechanics were really cool. It sort of just fits each character and tells you what they do.
I have been recently reading old X-men comics while listening to this soundtrack. Could not see myself not listening to that .
God damn, I forgot just how annoying difficult this game was. It's definitely worthy of the AVGN treatment. The graphics were unforgivably shitty considering it came out on both Genesis and SNES, the hit detection could be really spotty if I recall correctly, and for the love of God, you only start out with 4 lives for all of them. But worst of all had to be inconsistent controls and game mechanics for all the characters, especially Cyclops, who was just so awkward compared to everyone else asides from Storm. If they really were trying to place the characters at a disadvantage (Arcade's MO), it really should have been spelled out in a few cutscenes. There's the potential to have made a really great game, but everything just fell way short, save for the AMAZING music.
What I would have done would have been to have had the first part of everyone's stages play towards their advantages. You stick Storm in a flying environment, Spidey in a pseudo-Ninja Gaiden level, Wolverine in a straight platforming beat-em-up level, and Cyclops and Gambit in varying types of shooter-centric platforms. However, the second levels would suddenly flip it on them (explained in a cut-scene, of course). Storm is now in that claustrophobic water trap, Wolverine in a bullet hell where he has to close distance with everyone, Spidey in an open environment where he has no walls or ceilings to utilize, Cyclops constantly has enemies around him at all heights, and Gambit suddenly is faced with more flying type enemies. So long as everyone has consistent 8-way oriented controls, it could have worked. Oh well.
Impressive!!! Acclaim games were always difficult even with cheats. Major props to you!!
Man, that game had some really good music and unique dark atmosphere (tailored to each character). It was pretty tough. Never made it far, but enjoyed the different play-style/game modes each character brought with them.
I think I should note that I never really read the comics. The Franco-Belgian BDs(comics) are more of a thing in Europe, then the US super hero comics. But even then, I appreciate the gritty style of it. It's a really solid game that doesn't require you to be a fan or reading comics. I think there even was a Hulk game for the SNES that was very similar in it's style and difficulty.
I'd have thrown this cart into a wall if I had eventually beat the game and saw that brief ending for all my efforts.
The fact that the *X-MEN* were kidnapped in the first place is HILARIOUS!
I love the SFX but the Title Screen Music.... OMG so good.
I'm crying the nostalgia is amazing :')
I could never do wolverine's 2nd level. And now I see why! Mental! Glad to have finally seen the ending though.
Great job playing one of the most difficult and frustrating video games ever made. You brought back some great memories arguing which was better Sega or SNES over pizza with friends on a Friday night.
Jeremy would have been so pleased to read your comment. His goal was to bring people help and enjoyment. Thanks so much. Jeremy's dad
SaikyoMog thank you for keeping his channel open and my deepest condolences to you and your family. ❤️
Thank you for your kind comment. It truly is appreciated. Jeremy's dad
Excellent job man, but what a crummy ending for such a difficult game, man I remember going crazy from trying to beat it
It's so weird. I totally forgot about this game until watching a video about it and I was like wait a minute and I had to CZcams the playthrough. This brings back weird memories. I don't even remember owning this game. I guess a friend lent it to or I rented it once, but I do remember alot of these stages and bosses.
That is a great story. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. Jeremy would have been glad to hear that another fan of the older games had watched. Jeremy’s dad
@ 2:35 - It's cool how they added in a piece of Spidey's 1967 theme song. ("Spider-Man, Spider-Man...")
I liked this game growing up. I thought it was fun. Once you learn the tricks about some of the levels it makes it easier. Just a crazy learning curve
was really one of the 1st games I played for super Nintendo back in like 96-97. (the other was DKC3) so many memories with both games!!!! my childhood rocked! lol
gambit stage still is the best soundtrack out of all of them
Gotta love the 70s music on this game!! 😂
Defintely! Gambits stag songs were awesome.
I never could figure out how to pass the first Storm level lol nice to see a full run.
If you mean Storm's little tornado in the underwater levels, it's a shield that blocks enemy projectiles, I think. I'm sure it works on those squid-like things.
That juggernaut run is unreal
considering how i was unable to even get to stage two of any of the x-men in my entire childhood, this game must be commended for making me try again and again. great soundtrack and feel. Just with no save points, enemy health bar and internet to give you clues, i homestly thought the game wasnt supposed to be beaten. now i know it was this hard, just to hide the fact that there isnt even a proper outro sequence to this game haha.
I remember being in Blockbuster Video and so excited to rent the game, and barely getting my money's worth of game play.
I hated this game, but I'm happy to watch someone play through it.
good grief, I remember this game all too well. never got very far but I remember being so excited to get it as a easter present, and I played it a LOT, but I just wasn't any good at it. this music sends me back. WOW
Can we talk about how the music in this game rocks and goes perfectly with any marvel cartoons that came out in the 80s.
I like how Arcade decided that Wolverne's hell is full of clowns.
One of my all time favorite games for the SNES. I loved this game and played it often... The sound effects really brought me back. What's funny is that for years, I couldn't remember the name, I had completely forgot that this was a Spider-man title with the X-men. I'll be buying this immediately now that I know the correct title!
@thecowboy2 I wasn't actually able to beat it till years and years after I had bought it. One reason may have been was that I had the wrong idea of what to do exactly during Wolverine's second stage. But all these years of practice has paid off thankfully...
For some reason, every X-men game that I have played with Gambit in it are always the best ones!!!
+Theshark15z Gambit is the best.
I had the Genesis version of this game. All I have to say is DAMN THE MUSIC SOUNDS 10 TIMES BETTER IN THE SNES VERSION!!!
