Description
Bubsy II 2D platformer with the adventurous bobcat. Published by Accolade, released in 1994. 12+ levels, Bubsy to control, zany enemies, cartoon aesthetics. Released in Europe and North America, re-released on Steam and Evercade.
The NTSC version of Bubsy II, the most common of this sequel that became an object of affectionate mockery, a symbol of the botched mascots of the 16-bit era. In the States the cart is everywhere and costs next to nothing loose, its price a pure artifact of the sealed grade rather than the game's quality. Collector interest here is limited to a pristine boxed copy and a graded sealed one, sought mainly by fans of 'bad games' and completists of the American SNES library.
