YMMV / Aladdin (Capcom)

• Awesome Moments: Getting 50+ Red Gems can feel like this. Doing so changes the ending to be a montage of Aladdin's adventures through the game, all set to "A Whole New World (Aladdin's Theme)", or a new composition if you're playing the GBA version. The developers even compliment you by calling you "Great Player" if you get 50 to 69 Red Gems, or "Super Player" if you get all 70.
• Broken Base: There's no real consensus on whether the Capcom adaptation or the Virgin Games adaptation is the superior game, though either camp tends to acknowledge that the other is still a good game in its own right.
• No Problem with Licensed Games: It's considered to be at least almost as good as the Virgin Games entry in terms of quality. Makes sense, as this game's developers are veterans in the genre of platform games.
• Suspiciously Similar Song:
  • The GBA version replaced all instances of "Friend Like Me" ("The Genie's Lamp", "Group Hug!", and "Break Time!") and "A Whole New World" ("Magic Carpet Ride", "You'll Always Be a Prince to Me", and "Staff Roll") due to copyright reasons.
  • "One Step Ahead" (according to gamerips) is a lawyer-free version of "One Jump Ahead".
• That One Level: The second part of the escape from the Cave of Wonders. It's a One-Hit KO if you so much as touch a wall, and staying too far back in the second half of the level will get you killed by a wave of lava. That being said it's much easier than its Virgin counterpart "Rug Ride".
