The Wolverine Claws

Or making the right thing easy to do

Years ago, I watched a YouTube review of a bunch of Wolverine/X-Men games for the Nintendo NES and Sega Genesis video game consoles. A running joke in the episode was how all of the early X-Men games allowed you to play as Wolverine, but they didn’t let you use his signature claws easily.

In one of them, the claws had to be powered up and used as a special attack with some odd button combination. In another, you could use them whenever you wanted, but they were still a special attack that would draw down your health bar.
