I remember the SNES version, slightly better graphics, but sweat instead of blood. With a Game Genie you could tint the sweat red, but it was nowhere near the effect of the blood from the original arcade.
My dad thought I was insane when I asked for a ride to Best buy so I could spend my hard earned lawn care money on a second 16bit system when we already had SNES at home.
Bright side was the Genesis came with Sonic, and there was a mail in coupon for Sonic 2 for free. It said 6-8 weeks for delivery, but it felt like years until it arrived.
I think my life peaked on that day, and I almost wish it had never arrived so I wouldn’t have such a pinprick of joy to compare all of my other life experiences to.
Weird, I remembered that it was the SNes which had green blood and needed a code. I have to investigate this.
The Mega Drive had blood off by default and you turned it on with a code.
The SNES had no blood, it was turned grey to try and look like “sweat” and the fatalities were modified to be less brutal looking.
