Indiana Jones fans will really get a charge out of this SNES production from Factor 5. IGN played the game to death when it came out in 1994, and they have enjoyed coming back to it as the new film casts a shadow over pop culture. Definitely check it out if you are a fan of classic platforming, as it provides a good challenge as well as being a great example of how to make a licensed game.

Yes, it is much harder to start a retro collection in 2022 than it was in 2017, but it’s still possible! You’ll see there are still quite a few SNES games that are fun and affordable.
I really enjoyed Commando as a kid and it’s not listed . I bet it’s cheap maybe? Beat all 99 levels just to find out you start all over again .
You must be talking about Captain Commando and no it's not cheap...going for about $130.
Any retro console is still worth buying in 2022 whether a Genesis, NES, SMS, TG16. Some systems command a higher price then others but a SNES is still reasonably priced and worth grabbing you can mod the NA SNES to play Japanese games throw in an Everdrive and you're set. I feel sorry for some of the consoles I see on Ebay that have holes in them, yellowed to death, modified with shitty mods that barely work. The SNES might need a little work great way to learn if yellowed just use peroxide and UV light and it will turn white again. If you have a hobby of repairing older consoles that are listed as untested broken for parts some of the repairs are basic you can save money that way when buying a retro console. I just bought a $20 NES listed as broken on Ebay disable the lock out chip and new 72pin connector and it works.
I imagine restoration work on retro consoles is going to become much more important as the years wear on. Sure, hundreds of thousands of certain consoles were made, but fewer exist every year.
Depends on the console a SNES for sure needs retrobrite the plastic grows brittle and literally falls apart same with the NES. A White Dreamcast also needs retrobrite if I remember right the TG16 needs new capacitors it suffers the same issue as the Game Gear. Most of the old handhelds need new screens since they fail with age my Game Gear had new capacitors put in and a McWill mod done to it. The NES needs the lock out chip disabled when the power light turns on and off maybe throw in a new 72pin as well. Sega Master System has an issue blowing out the 7805 voltage regulator. OG Xbox depending on the board revision needs a clock capacitor removed or it leaks and fries the board. N64 controller needs a new thumbstick Sega Genesis model 2 suffers from the solder around the power supply is prone to cracking hence the system will not power up. Sega CD model 1 the laser dies fast model 2 the rubber feet supporting the drive fail and the model is know to throw the pico fuse so it dies fast as well.
It also depends how you treat the system also I baby my shit. I don't throw it around like a football the systems I see that might need the most help going through the years are the ones that use lasers and discs. I know some systems have problems due to how they were built as well like again certain board revisions of an OG Xbox and the Game Gear. I have bought broken systems and picked them for parts. I actually enjoy fixing older systems it's relaxing and a great way to teach yourself new skills.
Turning 64 this year.....my days playing video games are Now over.... time to move on to Jesus Christ .....I wish all of you Happy New Year . Game on Dudes!!!
It was fun while it lasted.
Titles like E.T. and Top Gun are associated with horrible gaming experiences. Standing above the abysmal standards of movie-related video games is Indiana Jones’ Greatest Adventures on the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. Not only does it pack three movies into one game for fans of the original Indiana Jones trilogy, but it does so with creativity that is never graceful but always engaging.
Although we’ll probably never see a new Indiana Jones on Xbox 360 and PS3 (LucasArts apparently canned the project while giving Fracture the green light), at least we can enjoy a handful of fun games based on the Hollywood action star. Here now, are the favorites.

The Lego Indy games were fun, but Fate of Atlantis while always stick in my mind. Not only was it a great Indy game, but it was an excellent example of the best of the point and click adventure games.
100% agree with you. If LucasArts won't give us a new game, then it should at least do a Fate of Atlantis reboot on Xbox Live and PSN!
Why oh why couldn't George Lucas use Fate of Atlantis as the base for Indy 4. It's brilliant!
I did like the bit with the swinging monkies though.... /s
Yes, back when Factor 5 was cool and could do no wrong. I downloaded the game to my Wii and love it. Classic side scrolling gameplay....lots of mission variety....cool music. What's not to love?
give us fate of atlantis in hd plzzzzzzzzzz it was the best game of my childhood
