The Jungle Book adapts the Disney film on Virgin NES with Mowgli crossing the Indian jungle to escape Shere Khan the tiger. The representation chains platform with fruit collection and combat with friend animals in a family Disney license formula. Honest for NES Disney platform fans, curiosity of the 8 bit Virgin catalog.

Collector interest

Released across PAL territories in 1993, just as buyers shifted toward the Super Nintendo, which thinned the European print run of this late NES port. The Disney licence keeps demand steady, and Virgin Interactive's polished platforming earns it respect among fans of end-of-life cartridges. The Europe edition trails its North American counterpart in value, yet country-by-country distribution makes clean, complete copies uneven to track down.
