I remember playing this game around 24 years ago on Sega genesis. Amazing times when things were much simpler. My dad had finally bought me the genesis in a sunny summer day back in 1998. This is super nostalgic 🥲
Say what you will about how the gameplay hasn't aged perfectly, but the conversions of MJ's songs to a Genesis sound chip were done so well it's almost uncannily similar to any Sega Genesis remix of a MJ song.
I really dont understand those pple who have negative opinion with this game and MJ... i love michael jackson also he is the only one pop king.. and this game reminds my childhood he is amazing talented person i ever seen
Zew this game is far cry from being enjoyable. It is only fun during early levels while the rest of game requires strong memorizations. Using health bar to perform special dance is just a terrible idea since dancing at wrong time means a suicide. As a kid I was totally impressed by the sound effect of this game, it was rather hard to believe the Genesis is capable of playing MJ's work so well, but sound is the only good thing the game can offer. Nothing personal against MJ, but if i want to play a good arcade style beat'em up, this is never going to be my first choice.
arcade version with a top down respective is harder in difficulty imo, but I had a friend which could beat it only using one continue. He is def a gaming genius
Ah the memories. I still remember how to do the iconic michael's moon walker in this game. Hold attack button and press the direction. He will do the moonwalk. Very effective on Mud floor and treatmill like floor lol
That's one of the things I like about this game - the controls were kind of jank and they decided to make Michael do his crotch grab whenever you press UP. This actually has the hilarious after-effect of making Michael do random crotch grabs in the middle of the stage because the player is trying to go up stairs or trying to check background objects that aren't interactive.
This is how big he was! Getting an actual DECENT video game with his own music, that is insane! Imagine any POP artist getting that today... Everybody would just say, "are you kidding me with this idea" 😊
This was the game that sold me on the Genesis. I remember beating it 25 years ago. The final stage with the space battle was hard as hell. I only beat it once. I loved the soundtrack so much at the time. YThe special effects were also amazing. Except when the little girl was saying Micheal all the time. I hated that little girl voice. I remember playing just to make some special moves and impress my friends that would come just to play Micheal Jackson.
I love Jackson's old school tunes, and they really help keep the energy up throughout the game. there was a sequel for the Genesis and Arcade planned a couple years later, but the first child molestation scandal destroyed that from happening.
When i was a kid, travel to Las Vegas played Michael Jackson's Moonwalker arcade game at Union Plaza b4 closed down arcade game room for good. Great Memories
Vaya, si se analiza el juego de mejor forma podría decirse que tiene sentido la teoría de que Michael Jackson solo quería salvar a las niñas y niños de esas personas malas que se ocultaban en la isla..
La verdad que si, porque a pesar de estar inspirado en la pelicula de Michael, el hecho que en todo el juego solo rescatas niñas y escapas de lo que parece ser una isla es algo que hace levantar sospechas
I remember playing this game with my cousin on his basement when we were like 7-8 years old. He had the arcade machine of it right at his goddamn basement. It was the best thing ever, but sadly, someone broke its screen with a football and now we can't play it anymore.. But looking back at this, man was it so frustrating yet so fun
i was waking up at 7am in the morning because I couldn't wait to play this game. It was back when I used to live in Russia and was a young kid. Feels like it was yesterday tho
why you don't do the dance which kill all the enemies, man I remember playing this gam 20 years ago, thanks for giving me damn flash back of my childhood
I never could get past the zombie boards the one when they split torso killed me evetytime even my older brother back then and he use to beat all my games I couldn't beat good game
he had a lot of power in media, or towards peoples minds,. so Cia could easily set him up and destroy his image. But at the same time I think he had a mental trauma or smthn like that. like why would u hang out with all those kids?its not normal. maybe they did it to him aswell, maybe he was crazy. It doesn't matter anymore actually, guy was talented
@@palmsbikegangsjjj4868 mental trauma? he looked fine to me in all his early interviews up to 93. his problem was that he liked little caucasian pre-teen boys.
just cause he looks fine to a regular dude like you doesn't mean he's normal. Theres a lot of studies about human brain and behavoiur science u know nothing about. Normal dude not gonna hang out w kids@@AMPFEAST
I played it as a kid and it was one of most enjoyable games for me! just look at how MJ walks , kicks, spins! it has his unique dancing style and his own music mixed in a very cool way ! God , also that ability to make enemies dancing along with you and beating them by this ! wow such an amazing experience! I am gonna play it again soon❤( you didn’t used this special ability in first stages so far 😂 I was waiting to see it …)
De niño en la compu de mi tío jugaba el juego, después en 2009 luego de la muerte del Rey del pop volví a jugarlo en mi ps2 ya que estaban vendiendo el juego
I never noticed the music as a kid playing this in the 90s . But. Sheesh this nice. Sonic level type shit how they remade all his hits lol this bring me back to the smooth criminal movie this was base on
Loved this game when I was a kid. I remember I got it for my birthday. I always thought it was a shame that the graveyard level didn't use the Thriller music. I think it was due to some copyright issue, I can't remember.
i kid you not, this game was the first time I heard smooth criminal, beat it, I am bad and every other mjs greatest hits. I never even noticed the first time I played this game, later in my life i bought mjs album the thriller thats when it struck me.
While I don't think this is the worst game I've ever played it's far from being all that good it's just too repetitive but there is some good things about it. The 16-bit conversions of Jackson's songs are great and graphically I think it looks great for an early genesis game. It's just the gameplay that holds the game back unfortunately.
nice gameplay, i never end this game when i was child....too difficult for me at that time....hahaha....and i will play this game again now. at my channel...i will finished it..😆
I remember playing this game around 24 years ago on Sega genesis. Amazing times when things were much simpler. My dad had finally bought me the genesis in a sunny summer day back in 1998. This is super nostalgic 🥲
This is making me feel very nostalgic and very very old... 😐
@@Kaeresh It was different times.
That's the year I was born
Man, this is may exact same case. My father brought the console for me back in 1998 as a gift for finishing high school😂. I was 16 back then.
Wasn’t the Dreamcast announced that year?
I was just waiting for him to keep pressing on A so they start dancing... That was tge coolest thing to do in that game lol
Haha exactly wallah

Yamaha FM chip
Same chip used in lots of keyboards back then
In away sounds better than the music they programmed for the arcade version
It indeed sounds awesome
I really dont understand those pple who have negative opinion with this game and MJ... i love michael jackson also he is the only one pop king.. and this game reminds my childhood he is amazing talented person i ever seen

the problem is with the game, not MJ.
Corre que el ayuwoki te va a violar
@GaryGoat350 he didn't, they just accused him saying he molested kids to steal money from Michael
This game was so underrated love it on sega megadrive in the 90s 1 of my favourite games maybe they should bring out 1 in 2023
I would love a remake of this game. Especially in 3D. That would be hot AF
arcade version with a top down respective is harder in difficulty imo, but I had a friend which could beat it only using one continue. He is def a gaming genius
RIP MJ
10 years and I can't believe yet

it's fkin crazy.. i was 6 or 7yo when i played this game. such a insane nostalgia.
Iam born 1995, are we the same?
Could never get passed the zombie level. So glad for walkthroughs today.

One of the greatest games of all time.

This is do epic.
This is THE BEST THING IN VIDEO GAME OF ALL TIME!!!
That is my favorite game, but I never played it in the hard mode. You did it perfect. Thank you.

15:25 It's Mecha Jackson the king of robo-pop!
AVGN Moment
@@DrRobotnikPingas Yeah pretty much.
This game predicted MJ having problems with the law.
See how many SWAT teams are going after him
That's not swat that's the deep state pedos he's fighting to save the kids
Its evident you never watched the Moon-Walker movie, that this game is based on...
And the children being kidnapped lol
After all these years i'm JUST realizing your attack is the cue ball dust from the movie.
14:38 to 14:48 lol
Best thing ever
kotk05 ikr
Awesome
Love this game!! I was so unique and different from other game at the time! Plus I'm a big Michael Jackson fan so had to get this!
Same for sure. It's also on my favorite console of all time.
Memories! Thank you for uploading this!
I was 13 years old when I start play this game..m.j the best
I remember playing this game with my cousin on his basement when we were like 7-8 years old. He had the arcade machine of it right at his goddamn basement. It was the best thing ever, but sadly, someone broke its screen with a football and now we can't play it anymore..
But looking back at this, man was it so frustrating yet so fun
Is the screen repairable?
@@DrRobotnikPingas I don't think it is, but I wish it is. What I'd do to play this game again man
@@tongarfrunchy9019 you have the Arcade cabinet, thats sick
The arcade version is VERY different
Moonwalker was the first Sega Genesis game I ever played. Then I later played Sonic a year later in 1991.
14:38, Thriller
ALEJANDRO FANTASIA Never got to hear it when I played and beated this game as a kid.
Basicly the whole video
18:32
Gotta be the best soundtrack ever created for a game. Thanks for ganeplay
Yea thanks for the ganeplay…
Remember having this game and it fell on the floor and broke into so many pieces . I balled my eyes crazy . Great game ‘
where the fuck you drop it from? a 10 story window?
Genesis games are like cockroaches
i was waking up at 7am in the morning because I couldn't wait to play this game. It was back when I used to live in Russia and was a young kid. Feels like it was yesterday tho
I could never get past the cemetery stage back in the days. Eventually I just moved on from Sega Genesis to PC games, never looked back, haha.
Omg, I thought I was the only one lol
وأخيراً شفت النهايه ☹️
كنا مانوصل الا عند العناكب بس مدري كيف كانت صعبه علينا 🙂😂
هههه اني جنت العبها مااادري مايكل
Apparently MJ's dance kicks are strong enough to yeet smooth criminals off the stage....
why you don't do the dance which kill all the enemies, man I remember playing this gam 20 years ago, thanks for giving me damn flash back of my childhood
The final fight seems so different from the rest of the game. I played this as a kid but I only remember the first stage.
I can't believe it's been 13 years since Michael Jackson passed away
#13yearswithoutmichaeljackson
Smooth Criminal
Beat It
Another Part Of Me
Thriller
Billie Jean
Bad
Thriller?
Thriller
I wanna badly cry.. was one of games I have played when I was kid. and when sega console come out.. and first to get to know MJ since then):
Have big love for this game. Was part of my youth. What fun.
I never could get past the zombie boards the one when they split torso killed me evetytime even my older brother back then and he use to beat all my games I couldn't beat good game
no podes tener tanta facha michael, hasta en los juegos tenes levante
I just love how the boss sends the zombies after MJ
A Michael Jackson game where you have to find hiding children and eliminate all witnesses. Hmmm...
I will back to my comment after 12 years
2023/9/12
What a beautiful music
And sad
Dude MJ didn't do anything to those kids. The kids have denied all their parents claims on MJ, said it was for money and fame.
he had a lot of power in media, or towards peoples minds,. so Cia could easily set him up and destroy his image. But at the same time I think he had a mental trauma or smthn like that. like why would u hang out with all those kids?its not normal. maybe they did it to him aswell, maybe he was crazy. It doesn't matter anymore actually, guy was talented
@@palmsbikegangsjjj4868 mental trauma? he looked fine to me in all his early interviews up to 93. his problem was that he liked little caucasian pre-teen boys.
just cause he looks fine to a regular dude like you doesn't mean he's normal. Theres a lot of studies about human brain and behavoiur science u know nothing about. Normal dude not gonna hang out w kids@@AMPFEAST
@@AMPFEAST bruh, he didn't tried to rape any kids
@@somefries3101 he didnt try, he succeeded
Dude...I had this game. Seeing him get the kids, while sprinkling magic dust...this gives me some unsettling feelings now.
Exactly
Came here for the 16-bit Michael Jackson music 🎶
Jackson dandoles a los reggetoneros xD
Literal :v
Great memories I'm almost cried I was 8 and now I'm 23💔💔😭😭
I was seven years old and I was playing this game I didn't know I was the great man then the king of pop
This had me laughing a whole lot. Ahh it takes me back to the simpler times
Michael jackson fue un idolo siempre pelicula👍🏻🎥📽🎞 me impresiono😱👍🏻
15:32 Reminds me when you wear a sweater thats way bigger then your size
It was scarier because I was kid and I I got freaked out that he is going to hunt me in real life
I played it as a kid and it was one of most enjoyable games for me! just look at how MJ walks , kicks, spins! it has his unique dancing style and his own music mixed in a very cool way !

Lmao..... he's not rescuing the kids he's actually looking for them and the villains are actually the heros trying to stop him
And this is the first version, the one that contains "Thriller" in the OST. Nice one.
El primer juego que saco michael jackson de la pelicula moonwalker y un muy buen tema aparte.despues saco otro pero arcade distinto a este...
Still playing this game from 2008 to 2021
Los ost de Michael y el chiptune de la sega genesis forman una combinacion excelente, es como si fuera hecho para eso
Wow I remember this game. I remember the two zombies that would split in two... I was stuck in that boss stage for a long time.
Zombies, gangsters, thugs, flying birds & Michael Jackson saving little kids while they exclaim Michael!
I never noticed the music as a kid playing this in the 90s . But. Sheesh this nice. Sonic level type shit how they remade all his hits lol this bring me back to the smooth criminal movie this was base on
This game was fun as a kid but now it is creepy with Michael and the little girls with the teddy bears
You clearly have never seen the film Moonwalker.
18:33 MICHAEL JACKSON KING OF POP
When I played this game first time, I was 11 years old in 1992. Miss my childhood.
Wish the arcade version had this battle plane level.. pretty cool though how they use the Robotnik explosion sound effect though.
انا لعبت بيها استمتعت اجنن لعبه ممتازه
تخوف
He should have got game of the year/ banging soundtrack!!
This was the best mj game

I wanted to walk & splash from my foot deadly sparks on some people face 😂
I loooooooooved this game 😍😍😍 very iconic
Sounds interesting... :D
Wow the memories this game brings back to mind...
I think of Michael Jackson as some sort of entrepreneur as well.
He was, MJ even tried to buy out Marvel for $25M before Disney ever did.
Just so he can portray Peter Parker/Spider-Man.
@@KenMasters. He bought out The Beatles. Something he never needed to do. But a peedo mind does what it feels like doing.
Loved this game when I was a kid. I remember I got it for my birthday. I always thought it was a shame that the graveyard level didn't use the Thriller music. I think it was due to some copyright issue, I can't remember.
i kid you not, this game was the first time I heard smooth criminal, beat it, I am bad and every other mjs greatest hits. I never even noticed the first time I played this game, later in my life i bought mjs album the thriller thats when it struck me.

Danny are you ok, are you ok, are you ok Danny.
When my cousin and I were kids, he would BS that Michael Jackson learned all his dancing from the kid in the end credits.
