  • Marvel Adventures

A number of video games based on the series were also produced:

  • Spider-Man Cartoon Maker for the PC
  • Spider-Man Animated Series for the Super Nintendo and Sega Mega Drive/Genesis
  • Spider-Man for the PlayStation, Nintendo 64, Sega Dreamcast, and PC (posthumous game )
  • Spider-Man 2: Enter Electro for the PlayStation (another posthumous game)

Electronic versions of classic Spider-Man comics were released by Marvel that included narration by Christopher Daniel Barnes and featured animation and theme music from this series. Spider-Man novels inspired by selected episodes were also released. A wide variety of themed merchandise (lunch boxes, cereals, clothing, etc.) was produced. McDonald's produced a themed line of Happy Meal toys for the show. However, this paled in comparison to the extensive official toy line that ran over eight series, and included a staggering amount of play sets and vehicles and actually lasted longer than the television series itself.
