Earthworm Jim 25th Anniversary Edition Legacy Cartridge Details
Born during gaming’s most outrageous era of character creation and world-building, Earthworm Jim is a hero unlike any other… a worm…. in a muscled-up spacesuit. It’s ridiculous, to be sure, but what’s seminal about this series is that it’s not only fabulously weird, but also one of the greatest platformers that the SNES has ever known. The fourth installment of iam8bit’s exclusive “Legacy Cartridge Collection” pays tribute to developer Shiny Entertainment’s opus not once, but twice – including both Earthworm Jim 1 & 2 on a single cartridge for the first time ever! As always, this is a premium affair chock-full of nostalgic trappings, limited to a highly collectible 2,000 copies.
