Every American over the age of 16 has watched at least the first Back to the Future movie, featuring the famous Doc Brown and Marty McFly, in their misadventures on 3 different time periods and alternate universes. The first movie was in 1985 and since it had a huge success, the merchandising sector thought it was a good idea to make a game for the new video game machine. . .the NES, which also saw the light of day in 1985.
Everything was planned to go alright; we had a movie that had a timeline in the future, and what better to promote a futuristic movie with futuristic merchandise! Believe it or not, there was a dark era without good videogame consoles (no offense, Atari but. . .you know how it goes). Although the plan seemed flawless, well, the had quite some flaws, the first one, and a lot of games suffer from this one, is that it was very repetitive. I mean, you have to walk 4 sections of a street for five minutes just to get to the cafeteria, which has a pretty high level of difficulty, considering it was just a game that acted like merchandising for a movie. . .
I only played this game once, when I was like 6 years old, and I still remember how difficult it was and frustrating to beat those Biff Tannens on the cafeteria level.
Well, here is a gameplay of the first section (and in which most of us say “Fuck this shit” and go to another game) by CommieCatGirl, enjoy!
