As much as I wanted to love Battletoads for NES as a kid, the Turbo Tunnel and Rat Race levels made me want to smash the cartridge off the wall (even when using a Game Genie). But this game looks like an absolute blast that should’ve been in every arcade. For some reason I was never able to get it to work with an emulator but I’m glad to at least be able to watch it. The absurd humor is what I always loved the most about Battletoads, and throwing in some crazy gore didn’t hurt with this one either. A winter level where you fight snowmen, the music sounds like deranged Christmas metal, and then for some reason you fall to what seems like the inside of a giant monster’s body where you battle a giant snake to the death and then kick his severed head off the screen? Hey, why not?
I really like how this longplayer seems to enjoy beating the game! Anticipating every cheating move, finishing enemies theatrically and effectively, humbling bosses! Great stuff all around!
MUCH preferred Battletoads as a straight out brawler than as the drawn out reflex trials that the main line console games were presented as. Its bizarre that the BT original creators couldnt suss out how the difficulty curve of those games kept the franchise from becoming so much more popular than it could have been
I say the same thing about it needing to stay a brawler on consoles and people look at me funny. Only the first few levels of any console Battletoads was fun for me. Then they start throwing you into weird situations that arent brawling.
We had a tiny arcade in the Pizza Ranch in my hometown. They had an arcade cabinet of this game! I remember only playing the first half of the first level, cuz killing the rat characters made me scared of playing any further. Plus I died a lot.
@@MarcSola7 I know Rash is in KI already but I said SSBU, I'm thinking Zitz hes stronger than Rash and faster than Pimple and he had multiple skin colors too.
RARE WARE FALTA LA SECUELA DE ESTE JUEGO PARA ARCADE CON FICHAS POR FAVOR ! [NO CAMBIE EL TIPO DE DIBUJO Y QUE SEA EN CEL SHADING] QUE SEA 4 VECES MAS LARGO QUE ESTE ORIGINAL Y LO MAS NOVEDOSO QUE AHORA SEAN 12 RANAS EN ACCION PARA 12 JUGADORES, INVENTE OTROS 9 SAPOS, FALTA EL NIVEL DE LAS MOTOS BIEN DIFICIL PERO CON PERCEPCION LATERAL NO FRONTAL
Arcade game: a straight-up beat 'em up.
NES game: brutal obstacle course masquerading as one.
The NES Battletoads vz Double dragon its very good man
I remember playing this at the arcade and thinking how much more shockingly bloody and violent it was than the console games. I loved it!!!
Damn! I don't think I would've had enough quarters to see this ending. Awesome playthrough!
Bro you played the fuck outta this game. Brings me back to the early 90s
What a time to be alive haha, so much fun.

Love the music in this game.
In stage 6 the game simply decides to become Contra.
30 years later and it's still an underrated gem.
This arcade game kicked ass!!
Classic of 1994😎👊✊🤘
Rip the 3 other stages in development
Brain Chase, Robo-Manus Maze and the Final Gauntlet
@@turrican3839 It definitely ended rather abruptly - the fight against Robo-Manus didn't feel like a natural ending.
Because it really wasn't, The *Dark Queen* was supposed to, but since Rare kept the arcade game so long in the pantry they couldn't finish it
@dude yes, the snowy cavern, admiral Oink is suppose to be the boss, while as Karnath is on descending jetpack riding stage.
@dude hes a large pig in a santa claus outfit
Fantastic as always!
Nice game
Why can't we have battletoads on switch? Whyyyyyyyy?
One word, Microsoft.
@@MarcSola7 it's all good now I got a modded og xbox that has the game.
@@MarcSola7 Three other words: Not. Family. Friendly. Nintendo doesn't like Blood and Gore, and Nut Punching giant rats 🤣
Nice! Is this on the Rare collection that came out for the Xbox One?
yes
I wish they put this game 🎮 on the Nintendo switch that would be cool 😎 yo 👍👍
Too bad this wasn't never re released on modern consoles
Yeah they had finished a gameboy port but because of the poor performance it did in the arcades it was never released.
False, it was released for the Xbox One as part of the Rare Replay collection.
@@silverdamascus2023 oh I didn’t know
Strange that it becomes Contra in the end
What difficulty is this?
Whatever the default is - I don't think there are any difficulty options (none in dip switches)
If Hollywood were to make a film adaptation of this, it should be an r rated splatter film. Maybe have Paul Wernick and Rhett Reese as the writers.
Super!!!
Le seul jeux que tu peux finir de la licence
Jason Michas Scott McNeil and Ian James Corlett as rash pimple and Zitz
nes version the best, nes BT and BTDD one of the best game ever made.
I think one of the battletoads members should have been in Smash bros.
Well we already got Rash on Killer Instinct (2013).
@@MarcSola7 I know Rash is in KI already but I said SSBU, I'm thinking Zitz hes stronger than Rash and faster than Pimple and he had multiple skin colors too.
Well there’s hope since banjo kazooie made the cut.
never knew this existed
is this available on home consoles
Xbox I believe
Xbox One.
Via the Rare Replay Collection.
Saturn or Dreamcast and PS1
Xbox One
