Disney's Aladdin (NES)

The licensed NES version of Disney's Aladdin is a port of the Game Boy port of the Genesis original by NMS Software, based on the film of the same name.

It's also a very obvious Game Boy port, with the white outlines on sprites still being present, alongside unvaried color palettes (like one stage can be totally orange or blue). It's comparable to their port of Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade that came out the year before.
