Aladdin adapts the Disney film to NES with the oriental hero in Agrabah adventures. The colorful art direction appeals but the 8 bit conversion loses grandeur compared to 16 bit versions. Pleasant for young Disney fans, in line with 8 bit cinema license tie in average.

Collector interest

Virgin's Disney adaptation, distinct from the Capcom version, released on PAL in 1994 when the NES had nearly lost support in Europe. That deep end-of-life timing yields a tiny print run that pushes complete and sealed values high. The coexistence of two different NES Aladdins also creates a point of confusion that sharpens demand for this specific, scarce European edition.
