Concurrently that November 1994 came out Iguana Entertainment's spinoff Zero the Kamikaze Squirrel on the SNES and Genesis/MegaDrive, which centers on Aero's nemesis Zero (who was created by David Siller's son, Justin Siller, as an equal to the Acro-Bat) who's been largely absent in Aero's second game except for being shown saving Edgar Ektor during the intro (and appearing as a password icon) whom he defies after being told to stay as he returns home after learning that the forest he came from is under threat of destruction which he must save. Images from GameFAQs " MA-13"? How violent and/or edgy is this game compared to Aero's? 😕 I can't imagine it's Konami's Castlevania: Bloodlines MA-13 levels of violent.
David Siller's creation would win the 1993 Best New Character award by the Electronic Gaming Monthly magazine and by that point Sunsoft made Aero their mascot he would appear beside the company logo in Blizzard Entertainment's video game adaptation of The Death and Return of Superman based on DC Comics' "The Death of Superman" comic, Funcom's Daze Before Christmas, Phoenix Interactive Software's Porky Pig's Haunted Holiday, and Scooby-Doo Mystery (both the Genesis version by Illusions Gaming Company and the SNES incarnation by Argonaut Software). Sunsoft gave free copies of the Nintendo and Sega 16-bit versions to the first hundred people who sent them a 3x5 postcard with their address.
Image from Wikipedia Prior to Aero the Acro-Bat's final release promotional artwork had been shown at the 1993 Winter Consumer Electronics Show in Nevada and its prototype left a good impression at the Summer Consumer Electronics Show in Chicago, having stood out well above the other exhibits which no doubt contributed to its eventual contemporary success.
