Actually it's an arcade game.
Ported to many consoles including PC, NES, and Mega Drive.



Captain N has many characters from third party games (Mega Man, Castlevania) so it's no wonder if other third party game characters show up as long as the franchise owner allowed it.

I know not many people liked Captain N due to it's "inaccuracies" to the games they were based on, but if you take Captain N as a parody of those games it's a rather enjoyable show... for a Nintendo TV show.

Reminds me of that game where you player as either a baby or a dad and stir up trouble for one another. Like eat batteries or drink Detox.

It may not age well but its enjoyable in its time.

It's a two-player versus game. One player plays as the father who must make sure the baby is safe while fulfilling out a list of babysitting chores and the other player plays as the baby who's sole objection is suicide by any means necessary, even if it means harassing your dad.
