I'm truly amazed, I never saw this game played this long via multi player. I played this alone on Nintendo, my best was only at the cyclops. I was 10 by that time, until I lost this ROM, or someone borrowed it never returned it. This is really nostalgic, like I said I never got the chance to finish this game, I forgot the title of this until I stumbled it upon my recommendation. Thanks, I really enjoyed watching it, it's like I'm a kid again. 👍
what a beautiful soundtrack from this game,. even from snes, the first stage theme, so epic..this game deserve to be on the actual generation, crossovers, etc...
The soundtrack in this game was the work of none other than the one and only (and underappreciated while at Capcom) Yoko Shimomura, who also happened to the chief composer of the timeless soundtrack of the original Street Fighter II (except for Sagat's theme, which was an arrangement of his SF1 theme done by the same composer). Yoko Shimomura and most everyone from the Alph Lyla sound group have since left Capcom. Shimomura has been under the tutelage of the legendary Nobuo Uematsu since leaving Capcom and have been producing amazing soundtracks while working for Nintendo (Mario RPG, Mario-&-Luigi, Paper Mario series, etc.) and Square-Enix (Kingdom Hearts series).
@@sdlock83 * Squaresoft first and foremost (Super Mario RPG was worked upon while under Square. Nintendo barely had anything to do with the game other than copyright on Mario characters). And above all, don't forget the legendary Legend of Mana OST for PS1. The first Kingdom Hearts game was also an original Squaresoft title, not Square Enix. It's important to highlight the difference, because almost nothing worthwhile came from Square Enix, as the merger completely ruined the quality of the produced games in all aspects (music being the least affected). Anyway, just saying.
The wizard didn't take the lvl 8 weapon because it hits only once, whereas the "Flamethrower" (Lvls 5, 6 and 7) hits multiple times, leading to extra XP and damage.
The present games use hard rock, or opera style music to cut costs. Older games used a techno jazz style to make you remember each level. I miss the old days.
with my best friend, we used to play this game after school, we ended it with a credit each. it was difficult, I played the mage and my friend played the elf, it was epic.
One thing I just now noticed about this game is on the 10:20 mark. Instead of the food giving points to the full-health Cleric, it instead restores the hurt Elf. That's genius.
My favorite of the Capcom fantasy hack and slash titles, maybe not quite as deep as Knights of the Round (with the contant need to block, then attack, adds depth), but far longer of an experience. I have it on SNES (got it a few years before it's price shot up overnight), and on CCC Volume 2 PS2.
I never could get into this one and I wanted to because I like the setting and the visuals. The music is excellent as well. For me, the lack of combos hurts it considerably. It just makes it less engaging in terms of gameplay. By contrast, I enjoy Knights of the Round much more because the combos and enemy management that goes with it. Add to that the blocking mechanic, which was strange at first but I grew to like it, that it suits my taste much more. I really wish the gameplay in this one was more like Knights of the Round. I am not saying it's badly made, just that its design left me disappointed. But then, even the following D&D games also didn't feel right to me, but those are well made as well and Capcom's other beat-em-ups are a lot of fun, so no hate from me.
If Capcom just remaster this (or any of their old arcade game), make it playable on all platforms (including mobile) with 3 players online play. Sell it for $20-25, people would go crazy over it. Add replayability like adaptive difficulty or wave/challenge mode, score & online ranking. Capcom is quite dumb on making money.
So, guys, we beat the evil boss, restored peace and all, so what are we going to do after we get back to town ? Everyone: HOOOOO ! And thus, the local ladies of the night were busy for the next few days
Any comments on the SNES version of this game? Is it comparable in terms of strategy, has anyone here played it and compared both? Any info would be appreciated.

Most will never know the fun of teaming up w a couple random strangers and running thru a game like this in a dark arcade.
Exactly, That reminds me of The Simpson, the last game I played with strangers at an arcade... Good memories
So many great memories doing that very thing. So much technology seems to distract and isolate now a days. This did the exact opposite.
Final Fight took me 5 dollars felt like a fortune lol!
Yep good times alright the 1980s..Gauntlet was and still is my fav arcade game..
@@darkayn7924 mine was TMNT in time lol
Playing this with your buddies at the corner grocery stop on a saturday evening, man THAT was what life is all about.

The 90's is where Capcom are king of arcades

素晴らしいビデオ、私はドラゴンの王が大好き

Looks fun! also thanks for putting the arcade hardware specs are in the description!
Just utterly gorgeous sprite work here.
I love this game with a passion. Always was a favorite to play on my snes emulator.
i was a kid i play this game
Magnificent game..... Memories 😍
These games were so cool.
This music... my God!
The best side-scrolling beat 'em up (or hack 'em up) Capcom ever produced imho. I still play it frequently!
My favorite Capcom game

Good news. Capcom release a bumble game called Capcom Beat Em Up Bumble for the Nintendo Switch.

Square Enix is also a misnomer; Taito and Eidos are also part of it.
I remembered I can finish this game using warrior without death. Oh!! The old days
スタート時のオー!が狂おしいほど好きw
分かる！ オー！
因みにナイツオブザラウンドは、
「とうっ（サササッ）！！」
全員男なのが笑える。華がねえ🤣
Cleric has always been my favorite
5:02 hahahahahaha, poor dragon screaming because of the arrow in the groin.
ベルトスクロールアクションゲームが充実してた良き時代
The wizard didn't take the lvl 8 weapon because it hits only once, whereas the "Flamethrower" (Lvls 5, 6 and 7) hits multiple times, leading to extra XP and damage.
Klaus Martin Stramm As he ends up 4 levels higher than others, seems this strategy pays off well.
I was looking at the comments to see if anyone explained why he made that decision. Thanks!
I thought it was because the weapon has a shorter range.
Thank you! I was about to ask too lol. Does anybody still play these games these days?
Dunno , but the lightning somehow gives more damage rather than the flamethrower when i played it back then,
I have to say, classic games' soundtracks are way more cooler than present. Catchy and Epic.
Their ok but don't quite match up to the present.
The present games use hard rock, or opera style music to cut costs. Older games used a techno jazz style to make you remember each level. I miss the old days.
This game made MMO's popular
I love the music very nostalgia
That's what you call team work
うわーこれ一回だけやったことある！
懐かしい
Best game ever created!!!
Very good !!!
これ、駅前のレトロゲーム専門？ゲーセンで￥２０プレイできたからよくやってた、懐かしい～。
面白いから￥２０ゲームコーナーでトップクラスの人気筐体だったな。
I love stuff like this. I love that the sound effect for some of the bosses was ripped from one the oldschool Godzilla movies.
starguy9 BACK WHEN THEFT WAS COOL! XD
=)

Real Team work !
スト２全盛期にこればっかりやってたなあ。
懐かしいなぁ。
地元では、みんなエルフばっかり使ってました。
For me, the best Capcom game ever!
Great game, I play it of teen, what remembers of it :)
really lovely game
Stage 2/9 "In The Castle" is the best music track on this game!
with my best friend, we used to play this game after school, we ended it with a credit each. it was difficult, I played the mage and my friend played the elf, it was epic.
i was that friend
@@besosnotbomb Have you guys touched butt yet?
the tank, dps formation rocks!
Eu vou assistir essa música todos os dias de king of dregns
One of the best far better than knights of the round more enjoyable by tons also the lvl ups and the different weapons make it 10/10 replayable
I played this long time ago
I used to play this game a lot.
Um dos melhores jogos de arcade. Deviam ter feito mais jogos dele.
Nice game:) tnx for this video!
Have a look at the mage score and his level.
兒時回憶😊
好想再玩
I remember this masterpiece.. Wow..
Jogo Clássico. ❤
I wonder why don't they remake this game? My favorite is Wizard
One thing I just now noticed about this game is on the 10:20 mark. Instead of the food giving points to the full-health Cleric, it instead restores the hurt Elf. That's genius.
I think it only gives points if all 3 players have full HP.
My favorite of the Capcom fantasy hack and slash titles, maybe not quite as deep as Knights of the Round (with the contant need to block, then attack, adds depth), but far longer of an experience. I have it on SNES (got it a few years before it's price shot up overnight), and on CCC Volume 2 PS2.
Ooooh!
Well done!
このゲーム、スーファミ版でかなりやりました。ほぼ忠実移植でカプコンすごいなと思いました。
NEVER REALIZED THAT I WAS PLAYING A BASTARDIZED VERSION IN THE SNES!
Seriously though, and I thought that version was tight.
Impresionante , me encanta .
amazing what an open world RPG experience that was brought out of the 90s sidescrolling beat em ups. This inspired the Diablos and WoWs
OOOOHHHHHH!!!!!!
"OooOOooh!"
kinda reminds me about knights of the round
Is it of any use the leveling up of shield/bow/bracelets? Weapon upgrade is pretty noticeable, but, 2nd slot item?
Great play ☆
How to use shield???
Now that was a decent game!
Eu amei esse jogo

おっこれ3人プレイ出来たのか？
幼いながらゲーセンでこれと天地を食らうばっかりやってた記憶がある。当然クリア経験なし…。
laputamania777 I know right?
Hooooooooah!
Is this the prequel to Dungeons and Dragons arcade?
11:48 my nigga the cleric Michael Jack moon walking
I love this game so much! ♡
This genre of games were my favorite growing up... I liked platforms and 1vs1 too but not like beat em up
You see? Even back then they already knew that's a Wyvern and not a Dragon!
Holden Axe v.2 😅🙌 cool game too. 😎✌
34:40 Cleric is doing moonwalk XD.

I need this game, i think they made it dor Super Nintendo, didn’t they?
8090년대 최고다
게미있는 고전게임 👍
Is it me or does the Cleric in this game sits out and lets the others do all the action and then take all the treasure??????? Just an observation. =)
Legal!!!Só não entendi por que o mago não quis pegar o ultimo cajado.
All Warrior - Elf, Fighter,Wizard,Cleric,Dwarf - 0:21 HOH.. haha
So, guys, we beat the evil boss, restored peace and all, so what are we going to do after we get back to town ?
Everyone: HOOOOO !
And thus, the local ladies of the night were busy for the next few days
ステージ15のボスサイクロプス2体もいるのはキツイかな
HOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
How do I escape from the slime? I tried but failed......
Why wizard dont want to take rank8 waepon in the end??
I am not playing.. kd29b.1a files is missing!!!
Wizard goes completely nuts on the Red Dragon
Any comments on the SNES version of this game? Is it comparable in terms of strategy, has anyone here played it and compared both? Any info would be appreciated.
I think Black Knight is easier in SNES, because it has no Dragon Riders. Everything else isn't much different.
Cyclops boss music is the same of a KotR phase or boss. Don't quite remember which one.
🔝
00:20
Is this a precursor to their amazing Dungeons & Dragon Arcade Games?
If Monster Hunter was made into a 2D beat-em-up, it would look a lot like this.
It wouldn't at all.
Hoooo!!
