The game consists of five levels somewhat related to the movie: Gotham City streets (with Killer Moth as the final boss), AXIS Chemical Factory (with Machine Intelligence System as boss), Underground Conduit (with Electrocutioner as boss), the Laboratory Ruins (the Dual-Container Alarm as boss) and Gotham's Cathedral (with Firebug as boss) where Batman finally faces the Joker.
Before each level, a cutscene with scenes from the movie is displayed.
Besides his ever trusty punches, Batman has plenty of weapons in his utility belt: the Batarang, the Spear Gun and the Dirk (a three direction weapon).
Batman has an ammunition counter shared for the three weapons.
The Batarang takes one pellet per shot, the Spear Gun two pellets and the Dirk, three.
Batman also has an eight hit life bar, which can be replenished by collecting hearts dropped by killed enemies.
The enemies will also drop pellet items (10 pellets per item) and bonus items (which will only sum up points).
Batman can also perform a "wall jump": he'll grab a wall when jumping toward it, allowing him to escalate some narrow passages.
Batman has three lives and unlimited continues.
About Nintendo Entertainment System
The Nintendo Entertainment System (1983 in Japan, 1985 in the West) revived the North American video game industry after the 1983 crash and established conventions — cartridges, licensing seals, save systems — that shaped the industry for decades. NES collecting is one of the most established retro markets: common titles remain cheap, but a well-known handful of low-print-run games (many from smaller third-party publishers) are among the most expensive video games in existence.

Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.

Rarity & condition
No market sales have been tracked yet for Batman: The Video Game (Beta) — this could mean it rarely changes hands, or simply that Gamevaro hasn't recorded a sale for it yet. Be the first to add it to your collection.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
