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.
@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.
@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.
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).
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.
@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.
ha los recuerdos, camo era realmente dificiles, era l que mas veias, y casi todoas son iguales, G E N I A L THANKS, FOR THE VIDEO, IT'S GREAT TO PLAY THE NES
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.
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....
@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
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.
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.
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?
Well, You haven't played City Connection,Battletoads, Bump'n Jump(Buggy Popper) and Dragon Buster, Little Nemo: Dream Master, Renegede, Freedom Force, Gun Smoke, Dragon's Lair?

I think no less than a million memories came back to me in a ten minutes video, thanks man
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...)
It sounds like the game over theme from Ice Climber is laughing at you for dying
LMAO, Duck Hunt, 0:58, you fail so bad a dog is laughing at you!
I just noticed the Baseball and Tennis games have the same Game Over/You Win jingle
This video is 10 years old and I still enjoy this!
2 things:
1. Same
2. Epic profile picture
Good work I found it fairly nihilistic playing games to die, but you get into the swing of it
1:09 and 0:54
The Gumshoe Death always make me laugh. One of the funniest NES deaths ever.

Wild Gunman had the most unexpected turn in death/game over music
These Game Overs are also known as Etrigan's favorite video game moments.
@Luirio In this case, the clock ran out. You also can jump off a cliff or into lava... take your pick.

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.
Wow! More! And add some obscure Famicom titles too! :)
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.
you have good tastes for classic games
Thanks for this arrangement. This abridged version is nothing short of hilarious! I laughed until I cried!
Honestly, they use the classic font for almost every game
Wild Gunman, thanks. Right after the shot, but before "game over" i thought sounded pretty cool =3
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.
@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.

That is Super Macho Man. And no one is the winner here.
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. ;)
6:04 Sky Kid
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)
@Minan3
I think you're talking about Section Z, a Capcom game that claims you as Captain Commando in the manual.
ha los recuerdos, camo era realmente dificiles, era l que mas veias, y casi todoas son iguales, G E N I A L
THANKS, FOR THE VIDEO, IT'S GREAT TO PLAY THE NES
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.
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.
I did forget all about the part 2's in case you haven't noticed. Thanx. :)
1:01
Yes, you can laugh all you want. That was your dinner!
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....
On parts 2, 3, 4, 5, & 6 respectively
Ugh the tmnt death.I can't tell you how many times I've heard that music.
8:17
Big Boss: Snake, status report! Respond! Snake?? SNAAAAAAAAAAAAAKE!!!!!
I recall 12 of these games. Cool.
@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
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.
Thank you James C for fixing the video
@Knux95 Wild Gunman is the game. the game has 3 parts. and that's the 3rd.
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.
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.
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.
@BrnoFlowZone
Let's see, Nuts & Milk, F-1 Race, Mappy, Ninja-kun, Mach Rider, Yie Ar, Balloon Fight, Track & Field, Volleyball, & Star Force. Did I miss any?
@Metalzoner Yep, totally. I wish they would make more of these kind of games.
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. :/
Oh, I see. This is the first time I've ever heard of that glitch before, though.
Few of these bring back memories of smashing my controllers.
This video is nostalgia to me.
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)
I watched this when I was a kid.
@MrDanyo96
I've never seen that before. Is it better than the "lying down while jumping on an enemy's back" death?
But 6:05 game was sky kid that Vs. Arcade Game (Vs. Super Sky Kid) and classic arcade hit game, too
There are no sequels on this video
2:42 *Wakanda forever*
*when you see it you will get it.*
Star Voyager - a very interesting & early flight game that I spent a great deal on... it had no replay value :/
i never saw game over screens once i got my hand on game genie...
@Metalzoner its actually "Rush 'n Attack"
I'm fairly sure that game is where the people who made Homestar Runner got that idea.
01:02 is the quickest death ever! LMAO!
Ikki, Rygar (Argos no Senshi), Skykid, Zanac
giant LOL ant 2:16 ! xD nice video man keep it up!
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.
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?
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.
have an idea, how about a nes winning "stage clear" compilation!
Best game over screen wasn't even in this list!
Friday the 13th had the greatest one of all time in my opinion!
aw, you were at the last boss in Faxanadu!
That flashing part is actually longer in the game... I cut it short.
Well, You haven't played City Connection,Battletoads, Bump'n Jump(Buggy Popper) and Dragon Buster, Little Nemo: Dream Master, Renegede, Freedom Force, Gun Smoke, Dragon's Lair?
2:00 I just love that one... boop bop bop bop bop boop, boop bop bop bop bop bop, bop bop bopbopbopbop, bop bop bop bop bopbop!
@WinGuysd
Would one of them happen to be Seal Clubber?
1:10
I'd say "How can you not tell?" but I realize the video quality isn't exactly HD. It's Space Invaders.
3:15 - Another 1000 epileptic kids hospitalized by Nintendo!
8:33 I was stuck on that level, but I was stuck on the boss
@hamhet i think its called rush n' attack!
1:58 the background music is so cool!
Winner is Strong Bads. Holy crap, and all that.
LOL Definetely Commando. Bionic Commando's Game Over music is a lot more upscale than heard here.
1:03 - Gyromite
11 people got GAME OVER
4:23 It is Rush 'n' Attack in USA has not allowed continue but Green Beret in Japan has allowed continue!
the battle against the giant brain,i mean,how could you lose to a TOTALLY DEFENSELESS brain?
This literally made my stomach hurt XD Game over is so physically painful
So the game itself is like the levels... you think you beat it, but now you're just on Game 1-2.
