    That 3D rotating cylinder on the last level is amazing. I had no idea NES could do that.

      This game literally has only 2 "random" moments in it. The mines in Stage 5 and the fireballs in Stage 7. The rest can just be memorized. Even the fish in stage 9 have a pattern if you play the same way every time.

    People around my age (38) don't have friends to get together (in person), and play games (especially retro games), cause most ppl my age don't have lifelong friends from childhood. I played tons of games in my youth with friends, but one way or another you move on from them unfortunately, and to find new ppl to get together and play nes games is very, very hard. I'm sure James and Mike's friendship goes back to childhood.

    • @Ek70R
      @Ek70R 6 ปีที่แล้ว +17

      @D G yea me too. Id prefer to play with friends in the couch or with my family, it is one thousands times better. Remember the days of mario kart or mario party with friends on the 64? It was a BLAST. I guess you dont play games not because your AGE, but because man we have no time for anything.
      I am 26, and have given up gaming because simply I have other priorities, i have no kids tho neither. But work/gym/social/self improvement eats all my time. Sucks to be an adult.

    Pretty fun game! You can still finish the game with two players if you can get to stage 11 with any continues remaining. Let player two game over but *not* continue, so you can beat stage 11 with one player, and then player two can press start during the blue map screen afterward and it'll use up a continue to join back in for stage 12. Hope that helps!

They looked like Japanese Famicom and their joysticks had four buttons on the right side instead of two. The top ones were turbo buttons. If you had original Nintendo you would have to buy the Turbo controller separately.

    I appreciate that James always clearly points out the number 1 spot when he mentions a number 2 spot, like at 0:35 for example;
    it irritates me a lot when people say "this one was number 2" and then don't say a word about number 1, so it is nice to see that James is like "and by the way, this was number 1".

    3. Battletoads and Double Dragon (NES)
    4. Battletoads in Battlemaniacs (SNES°
    5. (Super) Battletoads (Arcade)
    That's it. All the rest are ports, most of them watered down.
    Also:
    -to beat this version with two players, you have to waste Player 2's current continue on stage 11, then just bring him back for stage 12.
    -Bootsy actually took a shortcut on Karnath's Lair, that final snake is supposed to do a few more waves and it's pretty crazy.
    -Sharks take 6 hits to actually kill, ducks are immortal. You could have simply jumped over most of them though.

    I'll never forget the straight hours I had to put into each level, dying time and time again using the infinite lives code just to get through the game. On the sewer level, I gave up after about 3 hours of making no progress (and nearly gave up on the orb level after another 3), but I have seen and beaten all the levels, with the code of course. Tensed up and congratulated Bootsy as I watched every moment of this video. What a fantastic job he did; ridiculous game, will never forget it as long as I live.

    I would say that "Turbo Tunnel 3" is Surf City, where you ride on a surfing board over a bunch of rapids.

    Watching Mike saying that Super Pitfall is one of the hardest games he ever beat made me so proud of myself because it's one of the few really hard games that I've had the chance to beat when I was a kid. And it's also the greatest unbelievable gaming story I have because when I beat it I was about to take it back to the video store and decided to give it a last try. When I made it I was so happy, all I could think is that noone would believe me, so I ran to my best friend's house to call him to see it (it was something like 11am, when everyone was having lunch before going to school). When we came in the ending was already over and the game was on its start screen. Neither I saw the ending nor my friend believed me. Total bummer.
