I'm not sure he will. I think he likes the variety of content and limiting his recording sessions to 2 to 3 hours. It would take dozens of hours to beat some of these games, which would be a couple weeks straight streaming and may alienate his audience that likes him playing mario maker as his established base.
@@mavon2147 I know he mentioned on some of his previous videos that he completed them on stream. I was just hoping he could upload them here. But you're probably right
Also, thank you for reading the manual 😂 Watching you struggle with some of the basic mechanics is funny, but it's a better experience watching you play when you know the basics of what's going on. Watching you play previous ones was entertaining, but sometimes painful waiting for you to figuring out basic mechanics that are explained in the manual. Keep it up :-)
Ecco broke him! I want to see him get Ryuvenge on that one because it's a really good game if you read the manual. That's one of the best things about these old games you played as a kid. Coming back as an adult and finally beating them!
@Rodney Horsley And it absolutely spanked your ass as a kid. It was fun, but ridiculously hard to beat. Me and my sister NEVER beat it. Not even close. How about some help game, please? Nope. Pure destruction. We played without turbo, but not knowing where the hell you were supposed to go or the crazily tough bosses didn't help either.
It's a real struggle, especially if you don't know how to maximize your item usage. Invisible Potions are the best thing ever, giving you like 30 seconds of invincibility per potion, allowing you to tank most bosses with ease while unloading missiles. Once you're out of invisibles, go to regular potions. Buy health refills at Hot Dog stands for $5. Walk into the trees at the surrounded house to get your 4th and final life piece. Once you make it to the spaceship, you can continue from there. Use Nooses liberally to clear out the giant scary enemies. Blast the two guns off the final boss, then there's a safe spot at the middle right where the ball can't hurt you. GG.
@@Jack_80 I don't remember how many bosses left, but I do remember the final one was never ending fight.. it took forever to kill him. The worst thing is that you cant see how much life left.. so you just have to keep going against the boss like there is no tomorrow 🤣
@@Jack_80 There are 3 more bosses. #4 is another annoying shield boss #5 has no shield and is significantly easier aside from the huge life bar #6 is the giant machine with the safe spot
Instruction books used to be my favorite part of new games. I would spend the time in the car ride home reading it so that I could be READY to play. To this day I still feel a little sad when I don't see one. Instead we just get tons and tons of tutorials in front of every game we play, half of them unskippable, so repeat plays are just a slog at the start.
This feels like they were in the middle of making a completely different game and were suddenly told to slap the Addams Family license on it. Also this game teaches you that red pickups are bad but the money symbol pickups are red...as opposed to you know, green.
I used to love this game. For a year or so after I got it, I never knew about the maze buildings or the bosses you have to fight. Beat it a couple weeks after that
The nostalgia and the pain from watching this. This game wrecked the confidence of so many kids back in the days. It was brutal. Games nowadays: tutorial, continues, save game, load game, set difficulty... they don't know how good they have it.
I’m starting to love how clueless he is of any and all subject matter revolving around the games he plays. *plays Ninja Turtles* “This weird Rhino is weird!” 😆
One of the few NES games I owned as a kid. I played for years and never beat it. For the longest time I thought I was just bad at games. Then I grew up and realized that it's horrible. And I'm bad at games.
@Andrew Kehoe Your confidence as a gamer is easily shot when this is one of the games you try to beat as a kid. Ryukahr is a pro at video games and even he can't beat it. He even had the turbo option! We never had that.
So much nostalgia. I remember renting this from the movie store(yes, I'm old) when I was a kid, and never hearing anything about again until seeing it on angry video game nerd's channel. And yes, it is so frustrating how you habe to start all over again. I played it a year or two ago for few hours on my Wii emulator, and I remember feeling like I didn't know exactly what to do.
You got much further than I expected. This game was brutal. I struggled with it is a kid, and at some point went back when I was a bit older. I got to the corridor before the last boss and the power went out on the whole block. I could never bring myself to play the game again.
5 yrs old in 1990, took me 7 hours to get to world 7 in Mario bros 3, then my sister’s friend came over and bumped the system on purpose....anyone over 30 knows what happened next, it was devastating, still remember that.
remember when i wanted my mom to rent me a game when i was little, i couldn't remember the full name of castlevania 2: simon's quest and just told her that it was castlevania...someone's quest. she brought this home.
Thing about this game is that it actually starts getting good when you have weapon upgrades and potions. They could have made it into an actually good game with some more work on its flaws.
This game came out in 1989 The first movie didn’t come out until 91 I was obsessed with this game growin’ up I don’t think a lot of people knew about this game but the ones who did love it as much as I do💯😎🎮💙🔥
I remember finishing this game. What I would do at the beginning when you spawn is just walk back and forth till you have a fully charged gun. Then you adjust the turbo till it is just a constant wall of spikes. NES advantage was my controller of choice.
When I played this orginally my dad had a turbo controler which made life so much easier, I never beat this game but love this one. Thanks for the trip down my childhood memories
OMG, "Yo, what's an uncle gotta do to get some vice-grips, man..." & "What?! Who's Puglsy?" Ryu, you are too precious for this planet. Case Closed! I'm sure it exists somewhere, but I would love to watch a RYU OUT OF CONTEXT video! 💙
I remember this game coming out and hearing how you had to go all the way back to the beginning if you died. That always sounded super crazy. I never got to see it in action, so thanks for putting it on display. It actually seems pretty cool even with the brutal “start all the way over” gimmick.
It's so interesting seeing Ryu go thru all the same mysterious frustrations I had when I was 8. We got this game bc SMB3 was sold out during those chip shortage days! It's a really weird game, but each boss has a unique strategy and is truly challenging to figure out and defeat. There really is no other game like it. Ryu quitting at the 3rd boss is where we were stuck for months. I'd love to see Ryu take it on. It's unforgiving, but fair. I'd forgive anyone for using save states to avoid the walk back to where they died.
Got a recommendation for the series, Viewpoint. A short but hard sci-fi isometric shoot'em-up from the early 90s with hand-drawn 3d graphics. What's questionable about it being a worthy addition is the edition, there's two main versions of the original with a couple significant differences. The NeoGeo Arcade is what it was built on initially, and as such has plentiful enemies, surprisingly fluid animations, and crazy boss fights; the first port being the Sega Genesis Megadrive, which almost could handle it, some enemies and animation frames were removed across the game making it easier, though it still has slow-down when too much is going on. The other major difference would be the music and sound, while it's up to personal preference which is 'better', there's a distinct change in sound between the two, Sega's having that funky crunch factor lol. And like everything in those old school arcade days, the difficulty curve may as well be a half-pipe, lulling you into a false sense of security before clamping your quarters.
You should play Blaster Master it is a good hard game. Also fun fact Festers Quests took a lot of its sounds and enemies also the gun he uses from Blaster Master because it was made by the same company.
Wow! I remember seeing the box and reading about this game as a kid back in the day when it came out, but I don't think I've seen it played until just now.
i used to have 2 carts of this and played with my grandma even after knowing the boss key exit shortcut it still took several months and many pages of notes to get close, whip is from morticia. in the sewers its often helpful to lower the guns level too have easier time killing, the hotdog stands are the healers, 1 dollarsign for each hp restored
I remember as a kid my Mom went on a work trip, and brought this game back as a present for me. I popped it in my NES, excited. After playing for about 4 hours and getting nowhere, I wondered why my Mom must not love me anymore to give me this as a gift.
I never beat this as a kid, but in college I finally beat it. The 4th boss always got me as a kid. If you finish playing this, I want to see how you do against it and the rest of the game.
@@nakedAwing Yep! That's right a virtual boy game was made, but also lesser known, there was also a Game Boy game, a SNES game, a Genesis Game, and a PC game! Also an unreleased Sega Saturn and 3DO console game! I did a who deep dive video on the games about a year ago.
Ok so before I even start watching this I must say that this is a great day! Not only is he playing one of my favorite nes games, but also one I've beaten before. Can't wait to see how he plays it and what he thinks of it. Here we go!
Love these videos. Everyone calls these Nintendo hard, I call them my childhood. Games now are just so easy. Edit: I feel rule #1 with these games was run past as many things as you can.
All the way back, huh, just like the first Addams family game! Also, on that last boss I have to wonder if the whip would have bypassed the shield for some reason.
I was reading the wikipedia article, and apparently the issue with the bullets colliding with the walls is only in the NA release, in the EU it's fixed and the wavy bullets don't just smack into the walls.
watching this brings back a lot of memories. Still have the original cartridge laying around. If you haven't gotten around to it, you should add Solomon's Key to your hard games list... if it's not already there of course. That game is serious business! Awesome videos. Love the content!!!

Yes! It is so frustrating to see other TH-camrs play these games without reading the manual and then complain about the game the whole time.
Hard agree with this sentiment!
Yeah the game manuals were literally necessary to the game at this point in time. They go hand in hand.
I played this a lot as a kid and still have it. Story-wise the game made zero sense.
Same here
and the andams family feels out of place like this could have had any character
Its Adam's Family and aliens plus stuff equals game. Lol
“Take some shots”
@Rodney Horsley And it absolutely spanked your ass as a kid. It was fun, but ridiculously hard to beat. Me and my sister NEVER beat it. Not even close. How about some help game, please? Nope. Pure destruction. We played without turbo, but not knowing where the hell you were supposed to go or the crazily tough bosses didn't help either.
A game from my childhood, I absolutely love this game! The overworld music is so good. You can actually buy stuff at the hotdog stands btw.
Was that in the manual? He says he read the manual but apparently that useful info was not in there
What a game. I was the only one to finish this game among all my friends back to the 80s.. still proud of that!! 🥳
It's a real struggle, especially if you don't know how to maximize your item usage.
Invisible Potions are the best thing ever, giving you like 30 seconds of invincibility per potion, allowing you to tank most bosses with ease while unloading missiles. Once you're out of invisibles, go to regular potions.
Buy health refills at Hot Dog stands for $5.
Walk into the trees at the surrounded house to get your 4th and final life piece.
Once you make it to the spaceship, you can continue from there.
Use Nooses liberally to clear out the giant scary enemies.
Blast the two guns off the final boss, then there's a safe spot at the middle right where the ball can't hurt you.
GG.
pretty sure made it to that last boss ryu beat but i never beat it. how many bosses are left after that one?
@@Jack_80 I don't remember how many bosses left, but I do remember the final one was never ending fight.. it took forever to kill him. The worst thing is that you cant see how much life left.. so you just have to keep going against the boss like there is no tomorrow 🤣
@@Jack_80 There are 3 more bosses.
#4 is another annoying shield boss
#5 has no shield and is significantly easier aside from the huge life bar
#6 is the giant machine with the safe spot
"I picked up a whip... DOWNGRADE." We did it, boys, he remembered the word!
"I guess you don't have to worry about fighting anything in here"
> Immediately triggers a boss fight
I remember instruction books... It was a sad day when I opened a new game and there wasn't one inside...

"Who's Pugsly?"
bruh....
Came down to the comments for just this quote
…of Wednesday
Get it?

You did not just say that. Tell me you did not just say that

This feels like they were in the middle of making a completely different game and were suddenly told to slap the Addams Family license on it.
Also this game teaches you that red pickups are bad but the money symbol pickups are red...as opposed to you know, green.
You handled this game way better than AVGN did 😂
First 6 seconds perfectly captures my experience with this game as a kid.

Hello. Did you program me?
Or Superman 2.
Or some really bad parody of back to the future
played this way too much as a kid, and still saw more of it today than I ever had

The work and the persistence you put into these games just amazing 👍
So glad you decided to play this. One of my favorites growing up!

I love your other content, but this is by far my favourite series!
This whole series has been ADORABLE. Time to man up and play Burger Time.
The bosses in this game look like they’re nightmare fuel straight out of a horror game
I love the respawn happening the moment the spawn location is offscreen. Absolutely sadistic.
This was one of my favorite games growing up
Soundtrack was fire in this game. I played this when I was like 5 years old.
Please bring back extraordinarily hard games! I love these videos!
The manual explains a lot of things he asks about during the video 😂😂
Ryukahr gets the boss strategy so quick! A few clicks and he figures out the strategy.
I love the AVGN video on this! Tough indeed. Great video.
I remember this game! It’s so rough!
*enemy holds shield up*
Ryu: I don't know man, i just can't hit him for some reason.
O_O >_< O_O Ryu.... why?

It's channels like this that are so dedicated to old and forgotten media that inspired me to create an entire TH-cam channel around 1995's Waterworld!

One of my childhood favorite game.
All the way back, huh, just like the first Addams family game! Also, on that last boss I have to wonder if the whip would have bypassed the shield for some reason.
The boss fight music in this game is pretty epic, actually kinda gives me undertale vibes.
Ryu, I'd love an onscreen timer on these videos so we can really see how much of a setback each death is!
You should play Maximo, I remember it back in the ps2 era it was really hard and fun, we’d love to see you play it 😍❤️
I love this game! I grew up with Fester's Quest! So much fun! Love you, Ryu!!!

Cyber Shadow would be perfect for you to do a let’s play of! It’s essentially Ninja Gaiden but modern and published by the Shovel Knight devs.
