Surely, there had to be a Wonder Woman game out there somewhere. Every dumb license under the sun has gotten its day in the video game spotlight, no matter how ill-advised. I've found Superman on the NES, Spider-Man across nearly every platform imaginable, a really fun game starring the Incredible Hulk (Note to self: Put a pin in that topic for another day), and Batman, Batman, Batman! Anybody who's ever seen YouTube videos from retro-focused content creators has likely learned that the early era platforms like the NES, Commodore 64, and Atari 2600 have games on just about everything. I looked back through video game history. Has Wonder Woman ever had a solo game where she was actually the main character? That's the word that stands out, though, isn't it? "Featured." She's been "featured." Look back through history. She's been featured in games like the various Justice League titles, including Injustice, DC Universe Online, and others. As I watched Wonder Woman movie director Patty Jenkins and the great Lynda Carter discuss everything that made the character so remarkable, I started thinking about Wonder Woman's history in video games. Yes, it's been 80 years since Princess Diana first graced the pages of comics and would become a pioneer for women in superhero comics. DC also dedicated a segment to Wonder Woman's 80th anniversary. There were fresh looks at the upcoming Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, Gotham Knights, and there was even a movie tie-in based on the DC League of Super-Pets film. Plus, there was something for the video game player, as well. TV watchers got to learn about what's next for DC's Legends of Tomorrow, Batwoman, Stargirl, and more shows coming to The CW and HBO Max. Viewers were treated to new trailers for The Batman, Black Adam, The Flash, and more. There was a lot to soak in during Saturday's DC FanDome.
