"Super Adventure Island was first released in 1992 and is now on the Virtual Console. Developed by Hudson Soft, Super Adventure Island is a continuation of the series, which follows its lovable hero, Master Higgins. The adventure begins with Master Higgins and Tina hanging out and enjoying life. Moments later, an evil sorcerer appears and turns his girlfriend, Tina, into a stone statue. Motivated by love, Master Higgins sets off to save Tina from the clutches of evil, and to reverse the spell’s effect. A feat he accomplishes without wearing a shirt."
"The Adventure Island and Wonder Boy series have a long shared history so let's explore both franchises and see which one's best." - A.J. Maciejewski from Video Chums

I used to wake up watch Saturday morning cartoons and as soon as Looney Toons was over turn this game on until my parents woke up... Ohhhh to be 5 again.
Replies(1)Super Adventure Island would feel like an evolutionary dead-end for the platformer genre if it weren't for the recent resurgence of endless runners for cell phones.
