Batman: The Video Game

He's totally new. Totally tough. And he'll stop at nothing to make sure justice prevails! From the dark streets of GOTHAM CITY to the deepest corners of the criminal underworld comes the CAPED CRUSADER as you've never seen him before. Incredibly strong. Armed to the teeth. And ready to put his life on the line for the sake of all, on a search-and-destroy mission to end the Joker's reign of terror. He leaps, he flies, he dodges enemy fire and delivers it right back... with a vengeance. This is no kid stuff. This is as real as video gaming gets. If you liked what you saw in the movie, you're gonna love what you see here. Because this time around, BATMAN is all business, and he won't let anything stand in his way!

Corresponding to the 1989 Batman film (staring Michael Keaton, Jack Nicholson, Kim Basinger, directed by Tim Burton); It vaguely references the movie, having the same main characters, locations, and the threat of the Joker distributing toxic nerve gas. It is 5 levels of super hero beatings and utility belt mayhem. The game is notable for Batman's ability to wall kick, an uncommon action in platformers of the day.
