***Super Mitchell*** Is A 2D Side-scrolling platformer Videogame Based On The Mitchell Van Morgan Franchise Published by THQ, Developed By Konami And Distributed By Nickelodeon Software For Nintendo 64, PlayStation, Sega Dreamcast And PC CD-ROM. The Series Takes Place At Usual North Carolinian Places Like Raleighpolis For Example. Mitchell And His Buddies Stops An Evil Scientist Marquessa From Taking Over The World.

## Gameplay

*Super Mitchell'*s gameplay is very similar to its 8-bit precursors and Mitchell CD. The game largely functions as a 2D sidescrolling platformer, with an autoscrolling airship stage being the lone exception. The player is able to jump, attack with the character's abilities, duck, crawl, look-up, defend enemy attacks, hang on cliffs or bump into enemies to knock them over, during which a character can pick them up and throw them at other enemies.

The primary gameplay difference is how the use of the rocket pack changed. In *Mitchell Van Morgan CD*, it had to be charged manually, and took a relatively long time to do so; its use was primarily strategic and planned, and sustained flight was generally not possible. In *Super Mitchell*, the ability charges quickly and automatically, allowing the player to use it more conventionally and remain in-control indefinitely.

A duel with Mitchell's arch rival & robotic duplicate Metal Mitchell occurs, much like in Mitchell CD.

### Character Gameplay

The character's gameplay is mostly based on Mitchell Van Morgan 2, Mitchell Van Morgan 3, and Mitchell Van Morgan 4. It is also the 16-bit success of the early Mitchell Van Morgan videogame series for the Game Boy Color.

### Super Mitchell

The main difference between this game and the rest of the series is the inclusion of seven power stones hidden within the levels (as well as another earned by clearing the Super Mitchell", similar to Super Saiyan Goku from the *Dragonball Z* series. Super Mitchell hits harder than normal Mitchell, he charges faster and he can also fly. However, he is still able to sustain damage.

Completing the game as Super Mitchell is necessary if players want to see the 'True' ending. If the game is completed without transforming into Super Mitchell, a message will appear saying 'Try Again'. The 'True' ending simply shows Super Mitchell returning the power stones originally found (which was claimed after clearing the prologue level) to its rightful resting places, transforming back into normal Mitchell, and then raising his arm and giving a shout of triumph, followed by the message "END."
