You can store one item in your inventory- many of these items being weapons. Each character has his own unique abilities- Fred has the power to charge his cl ub and climb up rocks while Barney has the power to climb ropes and shoot a slingshot. The game allows you to switch between Fred and Barn at any time which is truly remarkable for a NES game. The game regularly sells for over 150 dollars on Ebay- and a complete in box copy would likely fetch upward of 750 dollars! Protip: If you can find this game at a garage sale you've struck gold! :)īut aside from being a collector's item, the game shines in term of being a unique and challenging platformer. Released in 1994 as a rental only game through Blockbuster Video, Flintstones 2 is among the rarest and most expensive NES titles- and quite the collectible in NES circles.

I play through all levels, find all secrets, and try to make use of all items.As one of the last games released for the NES, Flintstones 2 took the 8-bit system to its limits. Barney can climb ropes and vines, he has a weak ranged attack that cannot be charged, but his smaller size and and weight allow him to get into some areas Fred can't safely enter, or at all. Fred can climb ledges, his attacks have a wider angle, they are more powerful than Barney's his attacks can be used to deflect some projectiles and can be charged, but his attacks have a short range, and Fred's size and weight are sometimes a hindrance. In this game the player controls either Fred or Barney, switching between them by pressing the Select button. It is one of the rarest games to be released for the NES, and is possibly the second rarest commercially released licensed title for the console (behind Stadium Events).

However, Gazoo doesn't help you in this game, instead you get two characters to play as. At its core, It follows the same gameplay formula: fred walks left-to-right, clubbing everything in his way, picking up power-ups and other items, then fights a boss at the end of a level transition between levels is presented by walking through an overworld map, which sometimes allows visiting non-obligatory sport-themed bonus stages. The game was never released in Japan unlike its predecessor The Flintstones: The Rescue of Dino & Hoppy. This is the second Flinstones game on the NES. When they finally find them, a volcanic eruption blocks their way and so they start going all the way around the volcano to save their kids. Fred and Barney are searching for their children, Pebbles and Bam-Bam, who got lost.
