Disney's Aladdinby Virgin Games
editDisney's Aladdinwas developed for theMega DrivebyVirgin Interactive's studio of Virgin Games USA and published bySegain 1993. This was due to the fact that Sega had both obtained a license for publishing video games based on Disney's motion picture and established a collaboration deal with Disney's animation studios which was a first in the video game industry, so Sega of America tasked the Virgin Games USA development team with the programming duties because of their successful previous efforts withMcDonald'sGlobal Gladiatorsand7 Up'sCool Spot.The game has been noted for its use oftraditional animation,which was produced byDisneyanimators under the supervision of Virgin's animation staff, including animation producerAndy Luckey,technical director Paul Schmiedeke and animation director Mike Dietz, using an in-house "Digicel" process to compress the data onto the cartridge. The game also featured arrangements and original compositions composed by Donald S. Griffin.
Disney's Aladdinby Capcom
editDisney's Aladdin(アラジン,Arajin)was developed for the Super NES and published byCapcomseparately from Virgin's version, since Capcom still held Disney licensing rights for Nintendo consoles at the time of the film's release. Although the game is still a side-scrolling platformer, it is significantly different in both presentation and gameplay. Similarly following the movie's storyline, players control Aladdin as he jumps on enemies, vaults off stumps and performs various acrobatic feats to get through levels. Throughout the level, Aladdin can collect apples to throw at enemies and golden scarabs which unlock bonus stages. Throughout each level there are various diamonds (collecting all within a level also unlocking bonus stages), with players able to unlock an extra challenge if they collect 70 red diamonds. The game was later ported to theGame Boy Advancewith extra stages, though all the songs based directly on the original movie were replaced with new music, possibly because of copyright reasons. It was also unofficially ported to the NES in 1995 by Hummer Team.
Disney's Aladdinby SIMS
editDisney's Aladdinwas developed bySIMSand published bySega,and released in 1994 for theGame Gearworldwide and for theMaster Systemin Europe. Sega went on to produce this game since they already had the necessaryintellectual propertylicensing rights in order to publish theVirgin Interactivegame on the Mega Drive/Genesis. The game is also significantly different in gameplay compared to its Mega Drive counterpart. There are three main types of level, chase levels in which Aladdin must outrun enemies while dodging obstacles, exploration levels in which Aladdin must carefully navigate traps and solve puzzles, similar toPrince of Persia,and carpet levels in which Aladdin rides his flying carpet. It also, unlike its 16-bit counterparts, fairly closely follow the plot of the movie, even including cut scenes containing entire dialogue scenes from the movie.
