The NES/Arcade game is actually pretty fun and looks amazing.

This shit barely looks like it crawled out of 1996.

Nintendo made it, and believe it or not, it was the first title they made for the NES

Well, in that case I guess it's technically an improvement for them. In a few years they could be making the next AAA game.

Bullseye was a great show tbf.

Not saying that it isn't weird for a game to come 25 years after it ended, mind you.

Conceptually, it would be so easy to make a good Popeye game. Side-scrolling beat-em-up with Cuphead visuals. The game practically designs itself.

I would say we've been due for a Popeye comeback, but the one that was planned ended up turning into The Emoji Movie...

This made me look up who tf Brutus is. Apparently, he's Bluto but they renamed him at some point because they incorrectly thought some other company owned the name Bluto. Shit is crazy

Could have made it into a good side scrolling beat-em-up. Like the Bud Spencer, and Terence Hill game, or the Asterix, and Obelix game. Idiots.

Collect Olive's letters, avoid Bluto and vultures, and eat spinach to power up. Commas help a lot.

Fun fact: Donkey Kong was originally going to be a Popeye game but Nintendo couldn't secure the license.

u guys do yourselves a favor and play Popeye on the NES and then get back to this topic.

it was one of 2 famicom launch titles (other is DK jr).

Donkey Kong was originally going to be POPEYE but the deal didn't go through. Donkey Kong was popular, so pretty soon the talks were back on to make a "Popeye" game.

The graphics on the arcade version are amazing. it literally looks like the cartoon. The NES graphics are what you'd expect from early Nintendo and are still good.

Here's some good 1982 arcade footage:
