Toxic Crusaders [SNES – Cancelled]

Written by

Toxic Crusaders is an animated series based on the Toxic Avenger films. It features Toxie, the lead character of the films leading a trio of misfit superheroes who combat pollution. Video games based on Toxic Crusaders were also produced by Bandai and Sega, which were released on the Nintendo Entertainment System, Game Boy, and Sega Genesis.[Info from Wikipedia]

A Super Nintendo version was in development by Bandai, but it was never released in the end. It looked different from the Genesis version, that was developed by Sega. Some screens of the SNES version can be seen in the issue 39 of EGM.

Thanks to Celine for the contribution!

I have a vague memory of this being mentioned in an old issue of Game Players Magazine. March 1994 I believe, with Samus on the cover to promote the then new Super Metroid.

I don’t believe this there is no mention of an snes version of Toxic Crusaders anywhere on the internet, Yes it came out on Nes, Sega Genesis, and Game Boy but not SNES.

“Video games based on Toxic Crusaders were also produced by Bandai and Sega, which were released on the Nintendo Entertainment System, Game Boy, and Sega Genesis” that is a direct quote from Wikipedia. Which does not mention anything about a SNES version.

Magazine can lie just as well as the internet can any claim anything to boost sales. Screen Shoots can be fabricated too. I’m not convinced there was ever a Snes version. I’m from Missouri show me.

Yep, plus I realized my mistake, and just ate my foot I literally cut it off and put in my chicken and dumplings and ate it. after reading about it in the Nintendo Power Number 40 issue.

It say’s “Toxic Crusaders from Bandai put’s the environmental hero into an Super Nes Mission where he must mop up polluters.”

In the scans from Super Power 1 and Joypad 10, they printed the wrong screen shots, those are of the Sega Genesis game Ex-Mutants!
