The game was remade in December 2010 for UsefulNotes/PlayStationNetwork and UsefulNotes/XboxLiveArcade. The biggest addition is drop-in/drop-out online play, making getting a six-player match going very easy to do - just join a game that already has a large number of players. The other addition is unlimited credits: Pushing the jump button after your last life is lost results in you immediately rejoining the game, making [[DeathIsASlapOnTheWrist death meaningless]]. Not to mention that you keep your score, making the newly added leaderboards mean nothing, except for those genuinely good players who can get high scores and few deaths (the number of deaths is still tracked on the leaderboards). But because of these elements, the game was very popular online for quite a while after its release.

Fondly remembered by many players for its sheer cheesiness. Magneto, the main villain, taunts players by calling them "X-Chicken" and the villains introduce themselves with the corniest catch phrases you can imagine. There's an announcer who excitedly shouts out the name of each character when he joins or rejoins the game after running out of lives. And the plot is totally random — in character, yes, but random.

** In one of the chapters of the Facebook game Marvel Avenger Alliance, Magneto will appear to be the main boss. But upon starting the fight, it will be revealed that Mystique is impersonating Magneto. After the fight, Cyclops will remark [[CaptainObvious "Alas, that was Mystique, not Magneto."]]
* BadassInDistress: Xavier gets captured too.
* BeastMan: The crocodile-men, some of whom can [[DinosaursAreDragons breathe fire]].
* BossBanter: Assuming they're not being pummeled by six people at once, some of the bosses have some really hammy one-liners to deliver. Especially Magneto, who won't shut up unless he's being smacked around. (See the Website/YouTube link in LargeHam down below)
* BossRush: On Stage 7, all the previous Bosses except Pyro and the Living Monoliths attack at once. They have half their health. Players can fight up t 3 bosses at once, including [[ActuallyADoombot Magneto]].
* ButtonMashing: Hit the attack button, and hit it again. And again!
* CastFromHitPoints: Your "Mutant Power" costs three bits from your health bar. You get a "mutant power sphere" at the beginning of the level for one power use if your health bar is too low to pay the cost, and you earn an additional sphere every time you finish a level.

* ColorCodedMultiplayer: Going by the player name tags above the characters:
** [[color:blue:'''Cyclops''']]: JackOfAllStats
** [[color:red:'''Colossus''']]: MightyGlacier
** [[color:gold:'''Wolverine''']]: GlassCannon ([[HealingFactor oddly enough]])
** [[color:hotpink:'''Storm''']]: StoneWall
** [[color:purple:'''Nightcrawler''']]: FragileSpeedster
** [[color:skyblue:'''Dazzler''']]: SquishyWizard
* CutsceneIncompetence: The X-Men walk right into a trap set by Mystique, that happens to lead to the sixth level.
** Most "traps" involve the floor/ground being destroyed, sending the team into a pit of some kind. The problem being that Storm can fly and Nightcrawler can teleport.
* DeathIsASlapOnTheWrist: In the remake. Unlimited credits means that some players actively commit suicide just to refill their special attacks.
* DegradedBoss:
** Pyro in Stage 6. Health is a lot lower thanks to using 1 Mutant Power to wipe all of them out. However, depending on version, the 4-player arcade machine surprisingly has 8 Pyros at once while the 6-player machine and the PSN/XBL versions have 6 Pyros.
** On Stage 7, Blob, Wendigo, Nimrod, White Queen, and Juggernaut. All of them are fought with half their health.
* DesperationAttack: Uses up three units of life, unless your life is low, then it uses a special attack unit...in the U.S. version. In the Japanese version, this is reversed.
* DifficultyByRegion: The Japanese version has powerups to help you along the way.
* DistressedDamsel: Kitty Pryde (Shadowcat), who apparently [[ForgotAboutHisPowers forgot she can walk through solid matter.]]
* DropInDropOutMultiplayer - Technically present in the original arcade game, at least the "drop-in" part. The remake allows anyone to drop in or out of an online or offline game at any time, thus making it easier to get a six-player game going.
* DualBoss: The Living Monolith's two stone doubles.
* {{Engrish}}: Thanks to English not being the first language of the Japanese programmers, Magneto's voice actor delivers the following clangers ''completely straight'' with HamAndCheese to spare.
--> I am Magneto!! Master of '''Magnet'''

** On the other hand, it also has some of [[SurprisinglyGoodEnglish the other kind]], too ("The White Queen welcomes you to die!"; "Nothing moves The Blob!"). The above ended up becoming more famous.
* EvilIsHammy: Just ask '''MAGNETO!''' His minions are pretty hammy too.
* ExcusePlot: Loosely based off of the pilot TV series episode ''WesternAnimation/PrydeOfTheXMen''. Magneto is causing trouble in the city and kidnaps Kitty and Professor X. Beat shit up with your favourite mutant til you save them and pound Magneto into dust.
* EvilIsOneBigHappyFamily: Magneto's Brotherhood consists several characters who, in the comic, have no real common agenda other than antagonizing the X-Men. They all fight alongside the mutant-hunting Sentinels.
* FlashOfPain: Bosses flash colors when hit, and flash faster and faster as they get close to death.
* LargeHam: '''MAGNETO!''' As seen [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gjuWKAMAlQU here]].
* MadLibsDialogue: Some of Magneto's taunts are clearly spliced from other recordings. See in particular, "You are DEAD!", where "DEAD!" was blatantly recorded separately, and the "You are" is taken from another catchphrase, "You are nothing!" He even shouts "DEAD!" by itself from time to time with the exact same inflection.
* MechaMooks: Sentinels of course. Some of them are [[MookMaker spawned in one level by a gigantic Sentinel from its mouth]] (Possibly meant to be Master Mold)
* MythologyGag: One of the lines the Blob yells as you're fighting him is "Nothing moves the Blob!", the same line he used before trying to take on Nightcrawler in ''WesternAnimation/PrydeOfTheXMen''.
* OutOfCharacterAlert: Finally, Magneto is here, but he fights like a BadassNormal. Only kicks and punches, that is all. Alas, that was Mystique, not Magneto.
* PaletteSwap: It would be a case of UndergroundMonkey, but only a few enemies actually change their attack patterns. Bosses with low health have [[FlashOfPain "Konami seizure time"]], which causes their colors to change when they get damaged.
* PokemonSpeak: See the following quote.
-->'''Wendigo:''' "Wendigo!"
* PrepareToDie: The aforementioned "Welcome to die!" line by Magneto.
* RandomEventsPlot: While the plot fits the source material, the many events feel arbitrary and seem to come out of nowhere.
* ScreamingWarrior: Colossus when you use his special attack.
* SphereOfDestruction: Colossus' special attack. It nearly engulfs the entire screen.
* TrickBoss: Mystique as Magneto.

** The Japanese version of the game reverses this, using the Mutant Power spheres first, then using your health bar.
* ColorCodedMultiplayer: Going by the player name tags above the characters:
** [[color:blue:'''Cyclops''']]: JackOfAllStats
** [[color:red:'''Colossus''']]: MightyGlacier
** [[color:gold:'''Wolverine''']]: GlassCannon ([[HealingFactor oddly enough]])
** [[color:hotpink:'''Storm''']]: StoneWall
** [[color:purple:'''Nightcrawler''']]: FragileSpeedster
** [[color:skyblue:'''Dazzler''']]: SquishyWizard
* CutsceneIncompetence: The X-Men walk right into a trap set by Mystique, that happens to lead to the sixth level.
** Most "traps" involve the floor/ground being destroyed, sending the team into a pit of some kind. The problem being that Storm can fly and Nightcrawler can teleport.
* DeathIsASlapOnTheWrist: In the remake. Unlimited credits means that some players actively commit suicide just to refill their special attacks.
* DegradedBoss:
** Pyro in Stage 6. Health is a lot lower thanks to using 1 Mutant Power to wipe all of them out. However, depending on version, the 4-player arcade machine surprisingly has 8 Pyros at once while the 6-player machine and the PSN/XBL versions have 6 Pyros.
** On Stage 7, Blob, Wendigo, Nimrod, White Queen, and Juggernaut. All of them are fought with half their health.
* DesperationAttack: Uses up three units of life, unless your life is low, then it uses a special attack unit...in the U.S. version. In the Japanese version, this is reversed.
* DifficultyByRegion: The Japanese version has powerups to help you along the way.
* DistressedDamsel: Kitty Pryde (Shadowcat), who apparently [[ForgotAboutHisPowers forgot she can walk through solid matter.]]
* DropInDropOutMultiplayer - Technically present in the original arcade game, at least the "drop-in" part. The remake allows anyone to drop in or out of an online or offline game at any time, thus making it easier to get a six-player game going.
* DualBoss: The Living Monolith's two stone doubles.
* {{Engrish}}: Thanks to English not being the first language of the Japanese programmers, Magneto's voice actor delivers the following clangers ''completely straight'' with HamAndCheese to spare.
--> I am Magneto!! Master of '''Magnet'''
--> Come, '''X-Chicken!'''
--> Shiiiiieeeeeld!
--> Kill You!
--> You. Are. Dead. '''Hahahahaha!'''
--> I '''Kill You,''' X-Chicken!
--> And of course the ever delightful "X-Men! Welcome... to DIE!"
** On the other hand, it also has some of [[SurprisinglyGoodEnglish the other kind]], too ("The White Queen welcomes you to die!"; "Nothing moves The Blob!"). The above ended up becoming more famous.
* EvilIsHammy: Just ask '''MAGNETO!''' His minions are pretty hammy too.
* ExcusePlot: Loosely based off of the pilot TV series episode ''WesternAnimation/PrydeOfTheXMen''. Magneto is causing trouble in the city and kidnaps Kitty and Professor X. Beat shit up with your favourite mutant til you save them and pound Magneto into dust.
* EvilIsOneBigHappyFamily: Magneto's Brotherhood consists several characters who, in the comic, have no real common agenda other than antagonizing the X-Men. They all fight alongside the mutant-hunting Sentinels.
* FlashOfPain: Bosses flash colors when hit, and flash faster and faster as they get close to death.
* LargeHam: '''MAGNETO!''' As seen [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gjuWKAMAlQU here]].
* MadLibsDialogue: Some of Magneto's taunts are clearly spliced from other recordings. See in particular, "You are DEAD!", where "DEAD!" was blatantly recorded separately, and the "You are" is taken from another catchphrase, "You are nothing!" He even shouts "DEAD!" by itself from time to time with the exact same inflection.
* MechaMooks: Sentinels of course. Some of them are [[MookMaker spawned in one level by a gigantic Sentinel from its mouth]] (Possibly meant to be Master Mold)
* MythologyGag: One of the lines the Blob yells as you're fighting him is "Nothing moves the Blob!", the same line he used before trying to take on Nightcrawler in ''WesternAnimation/PrydeOfTheXMen''.
* OutOfCharacterAlert: Finally, Magneto is here, but he fights like a BadassNormal. Only kicks and punches, that is all. Alas, that was Mystique, not Magneto.
* PaletteSwap: It would be a case of UndergroundMonkey, but only a few enemies actually change their attack patterns. Bosses with low health have [[FlashOfPain "Konami seizure time"]], which causes their colors to change when they get damaged.
* PokemonSpeak: See the following quote.
-->'''Wendigo:''' "Wendigo!"
* PrepareToDie: The aforementioned "Welcome to die!" line by Magneto.
* RandomEventsPlot: While the plot fits the source material, the many events feel arbitrary and seem to come out of nowhere.
* ScreamingWarrior: Colossus when you use his special attack.
* SphereOfDestruction: Colossus' special attack. It nearly engulfs the entire screen.
* TrickBoss: Mystique as Magneto.
