A late Untouchables adaptation. Decent but drab action platformer, failing to mine the 1930s Chicago setting. Short stages, generic mood. Aimed at the broad NES audience.

Collector interest

American version of Ocean's adaptation of The Untouchables, released on the NES market in 1991. Unlike the Famicom edition, it belongs to Ocean's standard Western distribution, more common and thus less scarce. Its collecting interest is moderate: a mid-catalogue film-licensed title, sought mainly by completists of movie tie-in games and by followers of Ocean's output on Nintendo consoles.
