Dick Tracy adapts the comic strip detective and Disney film on Bandai NES with the yellow hat hero investigating the Chicago underworld. The representation alternates oblique view investigation phases and revolver combat in a film license formula. Honest for NES action license fans in the 8 bit Bandai production vein.

Collector interest

Bandai's adaptation of the 1990 film, an unremarkable US NES print run whose complete price runs oddly high, propped up by film nostalgia and the set-collecting of Bandai's NES licenses. The low game rating caps the play appeal, leaving the draw that of a 90s pop-culture artifact rather than genuine scarcity. Demand is driven mostly by completists working through the North American NES library.
