    I remember playing this game with my dad. Every weekend, at the evening, my dad and i tried to beat the game. It was so fun, and hard. Many fails and retries too. We shared the controller everytime someone dies in the game. We had a lot of fun together, haha. We didn't beat the game back then. I stopped playing this game and I moved to Far Cry games. 4 years later, I decided to beat the game myself. I did. It was hard, but I did it. I told my dad: "Dad ! Do you remember Super Ghouls N Ghosts ? That game we played a lot ?" He said "Yes ! I remember. Are you still playing it after all these years ?" And I said "Well, yes. And guess what ? I beat it !" He said he was proud of me.
    I have a lot of games like this one. But I will never sell them to keep memories... Jesus Christ I can't hold my tear...
    Nice video by the way :)

I'm also left-handed, on the Dean's List, hacked computers at the age of 8, Paypal and websites not long after. I guess I am special though LOL. 20 years of waiting wow. I couldn't live my life waiting. I would have to take responsibility and succeed myself.

    I FINALLY FOUND IT!!!! Aww man I still remember every detail of this game after all these years!! I’ve been searching for the name of this game since the last time I played it as a kid. This game stands out for its badassery! The detailed spooky atmosphere even down to the music! I remember the little diddy of the first level in my head all these years. So happy I found this. All these years I would try to look up this game and I would always click on castlevania videos thinking it was this. I saw the cover of this game online and instantly remembered it like it all came back too me! Its been 23 years since I heard this music and watched this gameplay. Aww man the memories. I remember u could lose your armor and be chased by zombies in your underwear lol. Man im very happy right now. Thank you for loading this up. Subscribed!

      you can play also the coin version of Ghouls N Ghosts on mame emulator or the pc - engine (turbo grafx in usa) version. It's different from this for snes. There is also the "first episode" of this game for coin op, it's called Ghost 'n' goblins, always playable on mame. There is also a a remake for playstation portable (PSP) of Ghost 'n' goblins . You can try it with pppsssppp emulator. And for snes there is a game "brother" of this: Demon Crest.

This goes to show that you don't need a new generation console to have fun. This 16 bit SNES gave tons of fun to most that played the games! Flat graphics but stereo music, made these games classics! I wish I could turn the hands of time back. So my mom, dad and brother would still be alive!

Even though it was one of the hardest games I've ever played, it's also one of the best games I've ever played. These are the type of games where you actually had to have skills to play.

    I’ve been playing this game over again on my old Wii U, and honestly…this guy takes so many risks and makes it work it’s amazing 😂 You don’t need to hold the magic bracelet until the next to last level (most people consider it a handicap) but this guy got it early on, used it’s strengths, and made every level look easy… 😂

      Yeah. The first death trap that you need to use trial and error for (probably just once) is the water part of the first level where the wave in the background destroys some of the land.
      It doesn't matter if you're in the air, if you're above a platform that ceases to exist, no matter the armor, it's an insta kill.
