Yes! And go through the game with each different character! Alucard can make some sections much easier but he’s not so great vs bosses and Sypha is basically the opposite
This is one of those games you would buy after renting it. It’s a really fun game once you figure out the weird controls, it’s frustrating in just the right way.
I remember one day at high school (at a time were emulation was much easier to do) I was randomly playing this game that for some stupid reason believed it was an actual Street Fighter game (how näive I was) and enjoyed it despite being unable to beat planet 1-3, years later I got it on my 3DS and Wii U Virtual Console (enjoying it as well), THEN back in 2017 I nabbed a NES cart for about 5 bucks and is a game I would feel really hurt if I end up selling it (also... I'm not gonna lie, AVGN's video of Street Fighter 2010 made a lot of influence for me to nab the cart), and FUNNY ENOUGH, my bros. back in the 90's got the game borrowed for their friend at a game store who always loved to go outside school to offer games as well and my bros. (kinda) hate me because they failed were I succedeed (I beated the game, they never couldn't).
I know I bugged you on stream multiple times, but thanks for checking out this fun and lesser known game! Great debunk of a game that haunted my childhood.
I commented on your last community post about this game 11 days ago, I'm really glad you were able to make a video about it! I don't 100% agree with you about your criticisms about the game, but it's fine, I'm just glad that you were able to show how the game is, and hopefully get more people interested in it, it's a great game in my opinion. So, you don't get healed between the levels of the same world, until you warp to the next world. At 8:16 you were supposed to shoot that red circular thing on the left, because it's an orb that protects your back from being shot at. When you have full powerups, you lose a bar for every hit you take, until you have only 2 bars left, and then you don't lose any more powerups unless you actually die. The end boss is super easy if you have full powerup, you don't even have to leave the wall to kill him. Personally, I love this game. My husband plays this all on a single life, and in the second to last level, is able to take zero damage, even on the spot where you have to hang down while the spheres go over you. I love hearing the music, it feels like some of the best music in the NES era. For another debunking episode, I suggest Double Dragon 3. Please when you do that video game, try to pause the gameplay for the second level of the pyramid, because it has a really long song on there that you don't hear the entirety of in normal gameplay. You pause just after you beat the guys on the ledge and you get to a elevator platform that you jump to. If you delay that jump, you get to listen to a song that goes for 3 minutes before it repeats itself. It really is great song.
Here's the song I'm referring to, in case he doesn't do the video, and anyone is curious about what I'm talking about: th-cam.com/video/X1niIhuF5KU/w-d-xo.html
In my opinion, the controls are perfect. Learning to use the moveset is how you master the game. If this game were like contra, it would be too easy. Ken is powerful, and throwing punches and kicks is super sweet! Granted, you can cheese some bosses, but between the action, the music, the style and challenge, 2010 ten is an underrated gem.
I wish they had made a sequel to this one that really honed in one the fun stuff about the movement and boss focused gameplay. It reminds me of Sega's Alien Soldier.
Yo Ryu , gotta tell you man, it's been a tough week and today's a tough day, but the fact you posted this and I get to watch this and this is such a hidden gem that just made my day, thanks for everything you do man , Appreciate you more than you know 👊
Woah, I have NEVER heard of this one and I spent most of my free time as a kid reading video game mags, at Blockbuster looking for new cartridges to rent, the arcade, or at home playing video games. Cool, thanks!
The whole losing your power-ups when you get hit but don't die is like Mario. You have the fire-flower, but get hit once you'll lose it, but you're still alive. You have any power-up, you'll lose it after getting hit just once. Looks like they took a page from Mario's playbook. lol
Great video. This was a pretty good game that I got cheap off of a rental shop back in the day. Not a favorite , but I enjoyed it. The hardest part for me was the final stage with the tight timer to kill all the bosses. I beat the game much later, legit on an emulator.
I beat it when I was 7. It was tough but, enough mornings waiting for the school bus with trial and error I eventually beat it. This is so nostalgic to see this again, TH-cam recommends wins again.
As far as I remember, "Blaster Master" ("Chou Wakusei Senki Metafight" jap.) was a very cool, interesting and complicated game (in terms of NES). You should definitely give it a shot.
Those platform/enemies you can’t avoid getting hit by… just keep shooting them. They get bigger and bigger, and then explode… if my rusty brain remembers from 84 years ago.
I played this game as a kid (long before AVGN video) and the main thing I liked about the game was the atmosphere, you were basically thrown into amazingly drawn and pretty distinct alien worlds which made you wish you could explore more of them.
@Ryu The powerups are lost when you take damage. 1 Spheres worth per hit. Edit: The game heals you after you finish a "PLANET." Each warp isn't exactly a planet though.
5:01, you have to blow up that little enemy with your strong shot. I think you press down and shoot. You did it a couple of times, but that sends out your big disk. Curveball shot.
2:15 not just one more, there are two more powerups. One is a power-orb on the back, the other is a backflip (or is the backflip available since the begininning?)
Makes me want to try it again. I have gotten to the second level once. after many tries I have given up on it. the game does look nice and the music is cool.
I got this game for my birday birthday way back when. It's challenging and really well put together. There is also an orb power up that deals damage when it hits enemies.
For this series, I'd love to see you tackle Ikari Warriors. I honestly don't even know if it can be debunked. It's up there with Battletoads for difficulty.
I think Volgarr the Viking would be great for this series! A modern indie game that's clearly inspired by many of the classic, difficult NES games. Super tight controls and attacks, but very tough. I think it would fit right in!!
Thank you, that motivated me tofinally try that game and beat it. was fun. Are you gonna make a video for Battletoads? It's my favorite NES game!
2 ปีที่แล้ว
One of my favourite NES games ever! Really cool game actually. Played it through many, many times. I still couldn't do it with 0 deaths but 0 continues at least.
I had some aging friends that liked NES, and they had a copy of this. I wanted one not long after. But in my case, I ended up using a game genie, gold with black strap, to beat the tar out of that game again and again until I knew it so well I took the Genie off. I absolutely did once play this game in one life, while managing to keep my level ups high. I liked to drag the little orb through the enemies during the back flip, and you can shoot them at the top of the flip too. So I didn't take too many hits and found my way through, but that took an ungodly amount of practice.
Love these videos. I have been looking for a video like this on a game that used to make me throw the controller. Please consider Section Z for a debunk.
Have you already, or do you have plans to do Debunking the Difficulty for Final Fight (SNES)? That is one of those games I have made it far, but never beat. Would be neat to watch.
I bought this. I love it. You complain about control, but I like it. You just need to treat this game like an arena battle game. Like Unreal Tournament. As for powerup: If you get hit, you lose life, AND half power. So by the end of the match you probably lose another half power, like a fighting game. The game is a bit easy, but gets harder after 14:50. 9:50 is easy with full power, full health. Just stand there and spam the punch button.
I really like this game a lot. It has a handful of frustrating moments that I would describe as "Mega Man difficulty". That is, a few parts prey on the player not knowing what's coming and lure you into a death trap. But the game isn't as tough as I think it's reputation has made it out to be. I'd call it an unsung gem of the NES.
I would love to see WURM: Journey to the Center of the Earth (NES) on Debunking the Difficulty. It's an amazing game that I have never heard anyone talk about.
I used beat this game as a 10 year old. I didn’t know about the backflip trick for the final boss so I just spammed the gun tapping so fast my mother thought I would pop a blood vessel in my brain.
I really like you Ryu but please don’t tell me that you didn’t research this game before trying it out, it’s fine to say you never played the game but don’t say you didn’t know how to get through the stages and bosses.
Street FIghter 2010 is a cool game a bit on the underrated side. Some bosses are easy if you are full on power ups, so its easier to beat this game in one go and not die, but real difficult if you do.
You should do Hagane (SNES), and Holy Diver (Famicom/NES through emulation or flash cart). Or, Holy Diver got an official NES release from RetroBit through Castlemania Games. Hagane is insanely expensive so you'll probably want to do emulation there as well.
Power ups gets drained if you get hit, but there is a cap, if you have 2 power ups, getting hit wont drain it below 2 (or was it 2,5) About jump damage: if you jump and hit damage is, lets say 1. Normal shot, with out diagonial input or jumping is faster and can do multiple shots, damage 0,5) I loved this games movement, so pricise, the charracter dies exactly what player inputs, it is possible to play this game through without getting hit even once. (2nd boss is random what he does, but even forward shot can be dodged) a great game, have beaten it as a child without getting hit. One of my favorite 8bit games.
Those boss cheases 🤣 I played this game a LOt as a child, newer knew of any cheese =P like stand in a corner , press down and shoot things, always moved all the time, dodging and weaving. +I dont agree that movement is ”janky”. I think movement is one of the bests in 8bit. So much that can do with back flips, know when to be grounded and do damage faster or when to jump to evade incoming damage. In my opinnion it was a trade off, be grounded and faster damage, or more airborne to evade but lose damage. Last stages time limit was cruel untill got practise.
This game took up a lot of time for me when I was a kid! I loved it because of its platforming, but it was hard! I doubt we actually beat it, but I'm not sure. Actually watching the video to the end, a lot of that end stuff is very familiar, so I guess we must have beaten it. I wish I knew all the exploits, we had to do everything the hard way lol
Amazing to think that it's already 12 years since this game came out.
Still waiting for Street Fighter 2020.
I had to think about that... 😅
@@christopherfiore960 Yeah, took me a second as well haha

You’re kidding right NES this came out 1990**
You’ve gotta love playing retro sci-fi games. They had such ambitious views of 2010
Castlevania 3. There is a section that a lot of people really hate. I vote debunk that one.
Is that section the whole game? I swear I can't get anywhere in Castlevania 3, but I can finish Castlevania 1 and get pretty far in Castlevania 4.
Yes! And go through the game with each different character! Alucard can make some sections much easier but he’s not so great vs bosses and Sypha is basically the opposite
@@strangevision99 Closer to the end. Clock Tower in almost every game is notorious.
The long stairs with dragon heads shooting fireballs at you, damn...
@@dannyt9744 You can beat video games the channel just did a huge in depth on it. Worth a watch.
This is one of those games you would buy after renting it. It’s a really fun game once you figure out the weird controls, it’s frustrating in just the right way.
Yes, if you master the controls it's fairly easy and fun. It's a lot about being defensive and maneuvering into a good shot.
I miss being dropped blind into a game like this. Same with the first Zelda and Goonies II.
I've enjoyed this game for 30 years and most people have never heard of it! So cool to see you play it!
My husband loves this game too, and he played it ages ago too. I'm glad he did a video about it.

My dad got this for us in the summer time I think when it came out I had just turned five and I played this game alot growing up love it
I think I'm more knowledgeable than most (but not an expert) when it comes to the NES and I've never heard of this game
happy thanksgiving ryu, i'm thankful for you and all the joy your videos have brought me :)
I just started watching your videos and watched all the debunking videos and BAM another one! Nice
I know I bugged you on stream multiple times, but thanks for checking out this fun and lesser known game! Great debunk of a game that haunted my childhood.

I literally watched the AVGN video for this last night! So glad to see you make a vid for this. Plan on tackling it myself soon.
I'd love to see him play Shatterhand. Such a neat Megaman-ish game. I remember it being pretty hard, too.
Shatterhand would be great
The amount of bangers Capcom released back in the day, wow.
I remember getting this game after my parents looking forever. It was awesome...but so hard
Loved this game as a kid. The hard part for me was the two scorpion fight.
I wish they had made a sequel to this one that really honed in one the fun stuff about the movement and boss focused gameplay. It reminds me of Sega's Alien Soldier.

The power up is called flip shield capsule according to instruction manual

Omg I totally forget about this game
Now when I see it wow I am speechless
I played this a lot in my childhood and forgot the name thanks Ryu

When I saw this, I thought you were exaggerating how easy it was. And yet, I just beat it today!
It looks like a cross between Contra and Ninja Gaiden.
Happy thanksgiving ryu
I've been having a total shit day today but when I saw this on my lunch break at work - really made my day! Thank you for your content!
Hope your next days were better
I’d love to see you take a shot at kid chameleon on the Genesis.
I believe it was the longest 16bit game to have no save/password system.
2:15 not just one more, there are two more powerups. One is a power-orb on the back, the other is a backflip (or is the backflip available since the begininning?)
I was hoping you could debunk this, but figured there was no way.... All those struggles as a kid and I never realized it could be that easy
I love this game
Makes me want to try it again. I have gotten to the second level once. after many tries I have given up on it. the game does look nice and the music is cool.
I got this game for my birday birthday way back when. It's challenging and really well put together. There is also an orb power up that deals damage when it hits enemies.
Classic game. It was hard but not impossible.
Played this game years ago. I enjoyed it! Don't remember if i beat it but i never found it difficult
Debunk.heck no.I played that with the game genie and it still was tough as diamonds
For this series, I'd love to see you tackle Ikari Warriors. I honestly don't even know if it can be debunked. It's up there with Battletoads for difficulty.
I loved this game as a youngling. Excellent episode.
@text-fast they have disappeared. I didn't care about a prize anyways.
This was one of the first games I owned. Brought back some memories.
The graphics animations and explosions are really good
Love this series man!
I think Volgarr the Viking would be great for this series! A modern indie game that's clearly inspired by many of the classic, difficult NES games. Super tight controls and attacks, but very tough. I think it would fit right in!!
ahh yes the flying robot scorpion incursion of 2010 what a year dawg
One of my favorite games growing up
I played the hell out of this game when I was little
Thank you, that motivated me tofinally try that game and beat it. was fun.
Are you gonna make a video for Battletoads? It's my favorite NES game!
One of my favourite NES games ever! Really cool game actually. Played it through many, many times. I still couldn't do it with 0 deaths but 0 continues at least.
We seriously need an episode for the NES Price of Persia. Let's see you act tough then!
Used to play that as a kid with my cousin, it was just good fun. Never got to far. 🤣 Nice job!
Your name does not show up as Ryu's. I do not have telegram and never will. Nice try.
I had some aging friends that liked NES, and they had a copy of this. I wanted one not long after.

really great game, the first level music track is a certified ALL TIMER
Ryu looks good with his beard this length!! It suits him nicely :)
May I suggest "Super Ghouls and Ghost"? Iv only ever made it to the stage that rotates and would love to know some tricks
I would love to see WURM: Journey to the Center of the Earth (NES) on Debunking the Difficulty. It's an amazing game that I have never heard anyone talk about.
"You press down, to shoot diagonally up..."
I remember a Flintstones game from this kinda era. that could be fun!?
I remember this game. If I had known to just stay in one spot I could've beaten this in one night
Not sure if this was already mentioned but this video is missing the first stage of planet 4 and the transition to the following stage.
Anybody seen Grandma's Boy???
Remember when he's teaching the kids at that table on how to beat a boss.
This video reminds me of that.
When will there be The Messenger? Not that it's old game but it is worth a look.
I used beat this game as a 10 year old. I didn’t know about the backflip trick for the final boss so I just spammed the gun tapping so fast my mother thought I would pop a blood vessel in my brain.
I love this game and actually beat it as a child. It is crazy fun.
There is a back flip and hard attack that Mike Matei still hasn't figured out.
Street Fighter 2010 is one of the games of all time
The legend is back
I really like you Ryu but please don’t tell me that you didn’t research this game before trying it out, it’s fine to say you never played the game but don’t say you didn’t know how to get through the stages and bosses.
The lore of this game is more obscure than elden ring lore
Ive beat this game numerous times. Granted its been 20 year or more but yeah. Used to play this quite frequently.
Street FIghter 2010 is a cool game a bit on the underrated side. Some bosses are easy if you are full on power ups, so its easier to beat this game in one go and not die, but real difficult if you do.
There's a flash kick in the game too, as I recall.
Hey Ryu, what do you think about playing Cyber Shadow?
This is a GREAT game, i rented dis back in the day:D
Have you tried infernax? I think you’d like it
You should do Hagane (SNES), and Holy Diver (Famicom/NES through emulation or flash cart). Or, Holy Diver got an official NES release from RetroBit through Castlemania Games. Hagane is insanely expensive so you'll probably want to do emulation there as well.
Loved the series !! Please do The Legend of Zelda Adventure of Link!
I had this game, and repeatedly got my ass handed to me. Crazy to see it in a whole new way.
This game is so close to being genuinely good, it hurts
Power ups gets drained if you get hit, but there is a cap, if you have 2 power ups, getting hit wont drain it below 2 (or was it 2,5)
About jump damage: if you jump and hit damage is, lets say 1. Normal shot, with out diagonial input or jumping is faster and can do multiple shots, damage 0,5)

That one side scrolling level reminded me of the final world in Mario 3
Have you considered playing ninja gaiden ps3 version. That game is nucking futs. Or dmc 3 on ps2.
Hey Ryu, would you maybe consider playing "La Mulana"? 🧡
I watched Arino on game center CX struggle with the game. I have struggled with it as well. It is a hard game, but quite a good game
Has Ryu done shatterhand?
Game I’ve never heard of but Ryu crushes it? Yeah I’m in.
This game took up a lot of time for me when I was a kid! I loved it because of its platforming, but it was hard! I doubt we actually beat it, but I'm not sure.
