Home Alone 2: Lost in New York is a video game based loosely on the 1992 film of the same name; it was released on the Nintendo Entertainment System, Genesis, Game Boy, MS-DOS and Super NES platforms.
Development
The game was released in late 1992 for all three Nintendo's consoles available at the time. Mechanically, the three versions are identical, with the Game Boy version being virtually identical to the NES version aside from the monochrome graphics, lowered resolution, minor gameplay and map differences. The MS-DOS version was released in 1992. The Genesis version was released a year later in 1993.
Reception
The game was released to a poor reception.
Home Alone 2: Lost in New York was awarded Worst Sequel of 1992 by Electronic Gaming Monthly. They also awarded it Worst Movie-to-Game of 1996.[1]
