The Story Behind Super James Pond
James Pond 2: Codename: RoboCod, also known as Super James Pond on Super NES and Game Boy in North America and Super James Pond 2 in Europe, is a 1991 platform video game. All these versions of the game are largely different from that of the original. In the original UK version of the game, the penguins featured as in-game product placement for the McVitie's biscuit company's Penguin Biscuits.
This time, however, due to the greater risks involved in this mission, James Pond is given a robotic suit and the code name "RoboCod" (a play on RoboCop). Maybe survived and has retreated to the North Pole where he has taken over Santa's workshop. James Pond 2 was originally released on the Amiga, Atari ST and Sega Genesis in 1991 by three different publishers.
How Super James Pond Plays
The graphics have been improved to take advantage of the consoles' newer hardware, and while the levels retain some of the themes of the originals, their layout is entirely different. After completing two "doors", James Pond moves on to another door where a guardian awaits. These recent iterations are remakes rather than ports of the original game.
In the new versions, McVities' sponsorship branding has been removed from the game, and RoboCod must rescue Santa's elves, rather than penguins. James Pond is recruited to infiltrate Santa's grotto, free the captive penguins, retrieve the stolen toys for the children of the world, and defeat Dr. James Pond's body armor enables him to extend his body vertically to incredible lengths and grab hold of the ceiling or platforms above him.
Why Players Still Load It Up
This time, however, due to the greater risks involved in this mission, James Pond is given a robotic suit and the code name "RoboCod" (a play on RoboCop). In their review of the Amiga CD32 release, they praised the soundtrack while writing that the garishly colorful graphics tend to cause eye strain, the gameplay is mildly fun but unexciting, and that aside from the "extremely pixelated" full motion video intro, it is identical to the version on the less powerful Sega Genesis. Mega Action gave the Genesis version a score of 92% writing: "Better than the original and a massive playing to boot.
The title music by Richard Joseph is a marimba-heavy rendition of the RoboCop film theme. These recent iterations are remakes rather than ports of the original game. Furthermore, it is a usual, beautifully designed and musical platformer." Mega placed the game at number 20 in their Top Mega Drive Games of All Time.
