Aladdin Released: 1993 Platform: Megadrive Publisher: Virgin Interactive Developer: Virgin Interactive / Disney Interactive Studios Robin Williams was a genius!

Super Star Wars Released: 1993 Platform: Super Nintendo Publisher: JVC/Nintendo Developer: Sculptured Software/Lucas Arts Star Wars is an incredibly important movie series for me.
