Item Description

Few '90s cartoons had an attitude quite like SWAT Kats, with its pair of mechanic-turned-vigilante pilots tearing across MegaKat City in a custom jet called the Turbokat. Hudson Soft's Super Nintendo adaptation, developed by AIM and released in North America in 1995, tries to bottle that energy in a side-scrolling action game, and it's exactly the kind of licensed oddity 90s cartoon collectors go hunting for.

You choose to play as Razor or T-Bone and fight through a series of worlds, each ending with its own boss, while the arch-villain Dark Kat waits at the very end. In a nice touch for fans, Deputy Mayor Callie Briggs has been kidnapped, so the urgent call that opens each world comes from Mayor Manx himself. Between the on-foot platforming, the game shifts into third-person flying sequences aboard the Turbokat, firing into the screen at enemies ahead of you. A password system lets you pick up where you left off.

It's fair to say the game was not a critical darling. Next Generation singled out those Turbokat stages and found the aiming in their 3D perspective clumsy, and Retro Gamer later counted it among Hudson Soft's weakest releases. Timing didn't help either: the show's run had already ended by the time the cartridge launched, and the game slipped quietly into obscurity.

That obscurity is what makes it interesting now. SWAT Kats has kept a loyal cult following for decades, and this cartridge puts you in Razor and T-Bone's boots, and in the Turbokat's cockpit, on a 16-bit console. As a late-era Super Nintendo curiosity built around two of the most distinctive heroes of '90s TV animation, it's a conversation piece with real character.
