Game Over is/was "imo" an Arcade Cabinet tradition which was carried over to console gaming as a way to preserve the "Arcade Experience" by bringing it also to the home! I myself loved the idea, since I'm a big arcade fan! I remember in 1986 pumping quarters in an arcade place in NY city. Those were the days... until the early 90s when Street Fighter showed up... were the golden age of Arcade gaming! Not forgetting the great SNK franchises like King of Fighters and that contra like shooter which I forget the name now. But I was really a sidescroller platformer fan.
I don't know if you know this, but when the portals came up, one of them was red, indicating that you couldn't enter. Since TH-cam converts videos to 30 fps, you can't see the red beam. It should be visible in the uncut version. The link is in the description.
@Minan3 It happens when you run out of E's shown at the top & die. Then you have to start the whole area all over again instead of the section you were at. That's why I love that one - epic failure. The music sounds good too.
@Metalzoner You're welcome, & the game at 6:18 is Star Voyager (sorry, didn't see the comment below). I can't believe I actually beat that game; will never forget that day; I had pizza for dinner that night.
The game at 3:34 - Ghosts 'n' Goblins - I used to freakin' LOVE that game!! It scared me, but it didn't give me nightmares or anything. I doubt I could even play it at night now without getting creeped out. But it was fun, even though I couldn't even beat the first few levels... I'm not so good at video games.
What a painful loss on Bases Loaded! To rally in the bottom of the 9th with nine runs, hit a fly ball to left with the tying run crossing the plate and the ball carrying where a homer wins it, falls a bit short.
When you recorded the SMB Game Over, you earlier did a glitch where you stay Super Mario after colliding with Bowser, which when you obtain a Mushroom will shrink you down to normal size, and picking up a Fire Flower will turn you into Fire Mario (but still normal size).

1:43 great donkey kong tune! 1:59 excitebike tune! ranking #43..... i like that game.... 2:25 good balloon fight tune..... 2:24 great tune! 3:24 excellent tune! 4:18 very excellent tune! great video....
@Knux95 Nope, Starfox made it's first appearance on the SNES. I think the one at 00:18 is either space invaders or caterpillar. Hard to tell since there are quite a few shooter games in that style.
What do you mean? That Tennis clip is very real - I couldn't beat that freakin' guy on that difficulty. Also many of these are based on things that happened - like in Gradius, I actually made it to the end once & crashed.
Thank you so much for the answer (and I will look up all those games:). Mappy I already knew, I meant the one after Mappy (the game with the ninja)? Oh and dont believe I commented on this before but awesome video. Many memories from dying in these games as a kid.
I'll admit; this whole thing has been "premeditated," for lack of a better word (look at Track & Field). But many of these are based on things that actually happened when I was playing, like Section-Z, Rygar, & Devil World. As for Rad Racer, I had something like that happen, but this one's exaggerated.
Yeah, I did just throw that in without any creativity. But it was pretty much my first time playing & I didn't actually try losing. If you look, my last attack "failed and there was no loss of Hit Points!" A typical thing of RPGs. :/ Someday I'll really tackle this game.
@corporalkills Commando (戦場の狼), by Capcom; also known as Senjou no Ookami; released Nov of 1986 in the U.S., Sept 27th 1986 in Japan, arcade released 1985
Never played City Connection, barely played Bump 'n Jump, haven't played Dragon Buster, recently played Little Nemo, haven't gotten to Renegade yet, don't even know what Freedom Force is, still need to get Gun Smoke, & Dragon's Lair?
its a glitch that if he touched you and the hatchet at the end of a castle as big mario, he would keep his size but will still be as vulnerable as small mario.
Skykid & Star Voyager - you're lucky I was able to guestimate & click on an arbitrary part of the video once & find Double Dribble else I wouldn't have gone through the twhole rouble of finding them & helping you. :p Man, I'm good. 8)

0:39 You won and lost at the same time! Lol!
A soul for a soul
This video is 10 years old and I still enjoy this!
2 things:
1. Same
2. Epic profile picture
Which reminds me, never stand up if ever you are on a moving raft in a low-ceiling cavern.
You cannot go wrong with the pre-1987 NES games (Excitebike, Pinball, Tennis, Duck Hunt, etc...)
I just noticed the Baseball and Tennis games have the same Game Over/You Win jingle
@Luirio In this case, the clock ran out. You also can jump off a cliff or into lava... take your pick.
It sounds like the game over theme from Ice Climber is laughing at you for dying
Wild Gunman had the most unexpected turn in death/game over music
I don't know if you know this, but when the portals came up, one of them was red, indicating that you couldn't enter. Since TH-cam converts videos to 30 fps, you can't see the red beam. It should be visible in the uncut version. The link is in the description.
LMAO, Duck Hunt, 0:58, you fail so bad a dog is laughing at you!
you have good tastes for classic games
The Gumshoe Death always make me laugh. One of the funniest NES deaths ever.
4:30- when they trip, it looks like footage of me doing any sport. I miss the awesome music and the sheer difficulty of those old games.
I think no less than a million memories came back to me in a ten minutes video, thanks man
@Minan3

Honestly, they use the classic font for almost every game
What a painful loss on Bases Loaded! To rally in the bottom of the 9th with nine runs, hit a fly ball to left with the tying run crossing the plate and the ball carrying where a homer wins it, falls a bit short.
That is Super Macho Man. And no one is the winner here.
I saw this when I was 6 years old. This actually got me into Nintendo. lol (what I meant by that is that I became a loyal fan)
Good work I found it fairly nihilistic playing games to die, but you get into the swing of it
When you recorded the SMB Game Over, you earlier did a glitch where you stay Super Mario after colliding with Bowser, which when you obtain a Mushroom will shrink you down to normal size, and picking up a Fire Flower will turn you into Fire Mario (but still normal size).
I did forget all about the part 2's in case you haven't noticed. Thanx. :)
Wow! More! And add some obscure Famicom titles too! :)

THANKS, FOR THE VIDEO, IT'S GREAT TO PLAY THE NES
6:04 Sky Kid
Has anyone ever realized they use the EXACT SAME FONT FOR EVERY GAME OVER SCREEN?!
It's the 80s gaming era. Of course they do. ;)
Thank you for reminding me. I was supposed to do that about a month ago.
@NeoAdonis666
I'm glad you noticed that - I was able to JUST miss it by mere milliseconds.
Wild Gunman, thanks. Right after the shot, but before "game over" i thought sounded pretty cool =3
Thanks for this arrangement. This abridged version is nothing short of hilarious! I laughed until I cried!
1:43 great donkey kong tune!
1:59 excitebike tune! ranking #43..... i like that game....
2:25 good balloon fight tune.....
2:24 great tune!
3:24 excellent tune!
4:18 very excellent tune!
great video....
7:19 Sounds Like Molang's Game Over Music In Molang A Happy Day
1:01
Yes, you can laugh all you want. That was your dinner!
Yes, and there was also a version on the Game Boy;wich I think it`s the best racing game ever.
The Nes version is also fantstic.
Every "Game Over" music for all NES including a few that I have from the end of every "MTN Shorts" episode with me, Shirley Temple and Bojangles.
@Minan3
I think you're talking about Section Z, a Capcom game that claims you as Captain Commando in the manual.
@Knux95 Nope, Starfox made it's first appearance on the SNES. I think the one at 00:18 is either space invaders or caterpillar. Hard to tell since there are quite a few shooter games in that style.
Ugh the tmnt death.I can't tell you how many times I've heard that music.
Best game over screen wasn't even in this list!
Friday the 13th had the greatest one of all time in my opinion!
I recall 12 of these games. Cool.
lol some of these games not only piss you off because you died but the game over music and scene really pisses you off equally or greater as well!! 8)
If you haven't noticed, I picked the first of many NES series.
ie. Mega Man 1, Double Dragon 1, TMNT 1... part 2 will have the sequels.

What do you mean? That Tennis clip is very real - I couldn't beat that freakin' guy on that difficulty.
Also many of these are based on things that happened - like in Gradius, I actually made it to the end once & crashed.
@Metalzoner Yep, totally. I wish they would make more of these kind of games.
Few of these bring back memories of smashing my controllers.
Oh, I see. This is the first time I've ever heard of that glitch before, though.
Thank you so much for the answer (and I will look up all those games:).
Mappy I already knew, I meant the one after Mappy (the game with the ninja)?
Oh and dont believe I commented on this before but awesome video. Many memories from dying in these games as a kid.
This video is nostalgia to me.

I'll admit; this whole thing has been "premeditated," for lack of a better word (look at Track & Field). But many of these are based on things that actually happened when I was playing, like Section-Z, Rygar, & Devil World. As for Rad Racer, I had something like that happen, but this one's exaggerated.

On parts 2, 3, 4, 5, & 6 respectively
Played all these games, but never beat any of them! 🤣
In its inception. Oh, what's this? I'm going to be gone for 7 months. I guess I'll start working on it when I get back. :/
cool vid!
Yeah, I did just throw that in without any creativity. But it was pretty much my first time playing & I didn't actually try losing. If you look, my last attack "failed and there was no loss of Hit Points!" A typical thing of RPGs. :/ Someday I'll really tackle this game.
damn!!!!! i played the majority of these games. #childhood #dope
Star Voyager - a very interesting & early flight game that I spent a great deal on... it had no replay value :/
3:18 WAIT A MINUTE! Strong bads!? Holy Crop!!!
@corporalkills
Commando (戦場の狼), by Capcom; also known as Senjou no Ookami; released Nov of 1986 in the U.S., Sept 27th 1986 in Japan, arcade released 1985
LOL Definetely Commando. Bionic Commando's Game Over music is a lot more upscale than heard here.
Never played City Connection, barely played Bump 'n Jump, haven't played Dragon Buster, recently played Little Nemo, haven't gotten to Renegade yet, don't even know what Freedom Force is, still need to get Gun Smoke, & Dragon's Lair?
its a glitch that if he touched you and the hatchet at the end of a castle as big mario, he would keep his size but will still be as vulnerable as small mario.
i never saw game over screens once i got my hand on game genie...
That flashing part is actually longer in the game... I cut it short.
Winner is Strong Bads. Holy crap, and all that.
I watched this when I was a kid.
I'm fairly sure that game is where the people who made Homestar Runner got that idea.
Mappy Ninja Kun?!?!?! Lord! I have play that game since I was 8..in an overseas arcade!!
01:02 is the quickest death ever! LMAO!

Man, I'm good. 8)
Yeah, that would really be appreciated if you'd list all the titles shown on this video in order so we can know what the names of all these games are.
