JEKYLL JEKYLL HYDE JEKYLL HYDE HYDE JEKYLL
JEKYLL JEKYLL HYDE JEKYLL HYDE

>>6952987
if it wasn't for you, i would never had heard of this game.

>>6952987

Not true. I rented this game as a kid. I knew it existed long before that Nerd episode. It was hard not to be drawn to that late 80's bombastic box art style. The box art is cool enough to be a poster. The game really is hard as fuck, though.

I heard it first from avgn true, I was 14 back in 2007 when I watched this ep for the first time. I just turned 27, how time flies.

BASED

>>6952987
Probably, yeah

>>6952987
If it wasn't for AVGN, none of you would have been here

>>6953151
How do you figure?

>>6952987
I was like 7 years old when that episode came out lmao

no, i had old mids of it from 2003. i googled it to match the mids up later. never watch avgn.

>>6952987
>ZOOOOM!
Thanks for your valuable input.

>>6952987
>AVGN

I was introduced to this game through The Nerd

>Net Worth
wow. It's like it's the early 00's when people thought that meant anything

>>6952987
I've had a copy since 1991, faggot.

>>6952987
It had a ad in comics that was in heavy rotation when i was a kid.

>>6953329
How would anyone even know this

>>6953160
I was 2 XD

>>6953813
Why?

>>6952987
Right, that was the whole idea of AVGN. That he would take you through old games and show how shitty they were. He served a purpose.

Now he just shits without rhyme or reason on games like Ecco and if we complain there are some megaretards say "oh hurr getting triggered at AVGN don't you know it's all jokes lol".

>>6952987
Factual, but you speak as if it’s noteworthy for some other reason than a popular content creator made a video expressing his disdain for it.

>>6953817
based 90s comic chad

>>6952987
Probably. I don't see how that's a bad thing though since it's completely and utterly forgettable and would have remained so otherwise.

>>6953160
I was 11.
I hate being old.

>>6954118
You're not old... you are however an idiot.

>>6952987
Nope. A friend of mine got it for his bday from his parents. He hated the game obviously.

>>6952987
You're right, NES wasn't really a big thing where I grew up so plenty of bad games I know from the NES are from the internet and faggy youtubers.

>>6953817
This, they did full page ads of the cover which were pretty eye catching. Still didn't interest me though, since as a kid old literature like Jekyll/Hyde existed in the same space as shit like Charles Dickens and I remember thinking a Jekyll and Hyde game sounded terribly boring.

>>6952987
If it wasn't for OP there'd be no faggots in this thread

>>6953119
Shit, are you me?

>>6954051
Because it was in a box of NES games I bought from a thrift shop.

>>6952987
>implying zoomers even know what avgn is

>>6952987

Not true. I played this game when I was little. I actually liked it, but never really understood it.

>>6952987
I want to say I rented this in 1993. I definitely heard of it before then, because I had THE POWER.
It wasn't a good game.

I would, but only because Jekyll/Hyde shit is a fetish I have that nearly turned me into a tranny, so I'm obsessed with it to an autistic degree.

>>6957712
What did anon mean by this +1

>>6953040
This song has been stuck in my head for over 20 years now

>>6952987
I heard about it because I'm the guy on the cover.

If it weren't for the Angry Video Game Nerd, older televisions and accessories would probably still be affordable. Fuck you nerds lmao you don't need a PVM to play your 8 bit bleeps and bloops

I would guess most people on here heard of it, but bc of AVGN it wouldn't get this idiotic hate, there are lots of other worse nes/famicom games.

>>6953151
I do think he played a big role in the interests of retro games online, it already goes without saying that he's what blow up the whole angry nostalgic reviewer shtick.

>>6952987
Some of us had Nintendo Power back then, Anon.

>>6952987
I owned that game back in the day

>>6953040
Why you do this to us?
