Sallu was the German division of Activision.

[@Pikachu132]

Larry truly is everywhere.

[@sprrwhwk1]

Thanks for taking one for the team. This doesn't look very good at all. Now, I don't have to play it. 😆

[@ChaossX77]

1:04 This looks similar to a level in battletoads for the nes.

[@XDBroSoft]

I had no idea that this game existed😂

[@veghesther3204]

Same here I only played the C64 version of the 1st game way back in 1985.

[@duchovny2]

So, what can we do with extra Pitfall graphics?

[@ShadowWinger99]

This is a port of the Amiga/Commodore 64 version.

[@TheLadsBandLive]

It's definitely no Sega Genesis Ghostbusters, but, then again, nothing is. 😎

[@GeorgeSerinos]

I believe you need to make a statement on the direction that SmashJT has gone

[@0u812343]

Cool

[@adamking6645]

So, in other words, us American gamers aren't missing anything.

[@roguerifter9724]

Were Monster Energy drinks actually a thing back then?

[@alynhampton]

I’m suprised AVGN didn’t review it

[@matthewstephens8503]

Most likely because it's PAL.

[@audrisampson]

The game looks like a Dumpster fire. I guess thats why it didn't get released here. Thankfully it's PAL so I don't have to collect it for my set.
Also what is the last place game?

[@frankmc5112]

More effort was placed in this video than in the production of this miserable game.

[@forcedfeedbackclassicgamer5499]

Psht. Don't even get to step on police cars when playing as the Statue of Liberty. What a ripoff. 😂

[@chrishensley5384]

Is there a list of your Atari 2600 rankings?

[@sandal_thong]

He showed them all near the end of this video.

[@chrishensley5384]

yeah I guess I can pause and screen shot.

[@MrTripcore]

Battletoads level 2

[@WillWatchAnything]

I’m very surprised for as late as this came out in the 2600’s life cycle that it looks and plays this terrible. Not that anyone probably would’ve anyway as we were well into the 16 bit era by then.

[@yandman26]

Depends on the programmer, time period os irrelevant.

[@midimusicforever]

Who ya gonna call?

[@Jolt7800]

Having to use the select button for gameplay. Wow

[@MrTripcore]

There are others that do that

[@zalden2565]

“Probably by cheating”😂

[@kins749]

I have a copy (UK) and agree it's an awful game, no redeeming features at all
