Spider-Man Or Spider-Man vs Kingpin as it is actually called, released in August of 1991. The game also released on Sega Master System, Sega Game Gear, and Sega CD(Though Sega CD's version of the game contained the actual title of Spider-Man Vs Kingpin). The player controls Spider-Man as he battles various supervillains (Doctor Octopus, Sandman, the Lizard, Hobgoblin, Vulture, Mysterio, Electro, and Venom) in order to obtain the keys needed to disarm a nuclear bomb that the Kingpin has not only framed Spider-Man for stealing, but plans to detonate within 24 hours. In the middle of the game, Spider-Man's wife Mary Jane Watson is also kidnapped by Venom. The Kingpin places a nuclear bomb within New York City and frames Spider-Man as the perpetrator. The keys to deactivate the bomb have been dispersed to many of Spider-Man's rogue gallery, including Doctor Octopus, Sandman, the Lizard, Hobgoblin, Vulture, Mysterio, Electro, and Venom.
Eventually, Venom kidnaps Mary Jane Parker. Peter obtains the keys and disarms the bomb, as well as saving Mary Jane before she is dropped into a pit of acid by the Kingpin. The Sega Genesis version was released in 1991 and was widely popular among comic book fans, helping to establish the success of the console. Critics noted that the game had superior graphics and sound, and faithfully recreated the characters from the video game universe. Even allowing the player to take pictures of major and minor enemies, they could be sold at the Daily Bugle to buy more web fluid. The additional ultra-hard challenge was a fight with Venom at the end of each round, before reaching the actual boss. In addition to Venom, there are also many other popular Spider-Man villains that players would have to fight, such as Doctor Octopus, Lizard, Electro, Sandman, and Hobgoblin. According to developer Randel B. Reiss, this version was a huge commercial success: two-thirds of all Genesis owners at the time also bought the game, which single-handedly convinced Marvel Comics not to cancel its licensing deal with Sega.
