A faithful game conversion of the popular animated TV show, The Brave and the Bold casts a familiar hero in a series of madcap adventures with friends and foe alike. It's not perfect, but it sure is fun.

Wii FIRST IMPRESSIONS by Gameplanet Staff 3 Sep 2010, 11:32 am

Despite the dozens of different imaginings Batman has endured in popular culture over the past 70 years, he's always remained the quintessential crime-fighting superhero.

Good news for Wii owners then, as The Brave and The Bold doesn't seek to supplant your perception of Batman with a newly-minted take on the legacy of Bruce Wayne. Rather, developers WayForward (A Boy and his Blob, Contra 4) have attempted to faithfully reproduce the comic styling of the television series bearing the same name and produced for the Cartoon Network.

More than just replicating the humour and madcap action from the TV series, the object is to extend the experience and open it up to all-comers. To that extent, the Wii provides the perfect platform, and handles the 2D side-scrolling co-op gameplay with ease.
