This game is hard as balls.

>>760890
Wait until you beat the game. You get a code to access the "Hard" mode.

>>760890
Or maybe you just suck at platformers.

>>760890
I just beat the first two levels. I didn't have any trouble with it, so it must be harder on later stages.

Here is my video for anybody that cares.

Wait for it...

Holy shit! I forgot about this game.

I remember playing this as a kid. I sucked at it.

Just got it cheap the other day. An amazing game especially back then when there wasn't anything like 3d.

>>761423
True. Although the 3D kinda fucks up your depth perception. ESPECIALLY with the 3D mode activated.

I wonder if playing this game with 3D glasses is worth a fuck.

Never got to try it as a kid.

>>761475
Not at all. It didn't work with a damn.

Didn't Squaresoft make this?

>>761562
Yes, they did. Akklaim just distributed the game in America.

Here is my second video for those interested. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O_deyL3p3ns

Doesn't look that hard to me.

>>761681
Looks can be deceiving, friend.

>>760872
>Any of you played it?

Yeah, I own it. It's pretty cool. I've been wanting to try it with 3D glasses, but I don't have any and don't know where to get some.

>>761716
I think I saw a brand of cereal that had some in the box, but other then that...I'm pretty sure they stopped making those ages ago.

>>761716

it used basic red/blue glasses, you can make your own in a couple minutes

The bad part is that every stage has that song on it.

Chrontendo does the exact same thing, in chronological order, and it's taken him years, and he hasn't beaten every game, and he's not really that close to done.

>>761846
Just checked him out. I'm not really putting in that much effort. This is just a casual thing to give me something to do. If people watch, fantastic. If not, well, I got to play me some games.

Here is my channel. https://www.youtube.com/user/Lamorosii

You say God dammit a lot.

>>761935
I actually didn't notice until I rewatched the video.

Are you seriously thinking of beating every game? That's quite...ambitious.

>>761716
I got a nice pair on the cheap from Deal Extreme. They're not even paper either, like plastic sunglasses, and I think they come in more than R/B (Like violet/teal)

>>762030
Well, I'm going to try. If I don't beat a game, it's either foreign or it's a game that's not worth recording that long. Tetris is a good example. I'll have a video for it, but there isn't much to show. For those kind of games, I'll probably play until I lose and then stop.

Huh. On the brief part of the video that showed the crappy 3d effect, I tried my red-GREEN (not blue) glasses (just cuz they happened to be nearby) and the 3d worked better than it ever did when I was a kid. Mind moderately blown; I need to experiment with this a little.

>>762068
It'd probably look better if you played it yourself. My recording software didn't pick it up, but it'll randomly fluctuate colors.

>>761628
>using cheats

So what reason do we have to watch this if there is absolutely no tension to make it interesting?

>>762128
Well, if it makes you happy, I'll attempt to play the last two stages without any codes on. Prepare to hear many a God Dammit from me in that one.

>>762128
Or boring if he can't beat it and we watch him replay over and over.

>attempt to play and beat every game for the NES
This would take years.

I applaud your enthusiasm, but I don't see it following through the entire way.

>>762192
And you're probably right. But, at the moment, it's a way to pass the time. HUZZAH!

>>762297
Well, to each his own. Good luck with your ventures.

>>760872
I'm doing this for SNES. Working on Donkey Kong Country and Lufia 1 right now.

I hate Lufia 1.

>>762391
Don't know if you'll see this, but what is your YouTube Channel? I'm always interested in other LP.

This game is a bitch. You're only going to get the 7th level in the next video. Took me 13 minutes to freaking beat it and level 8 is pissing me off. lol

You make 13 minutes sound like a long time.

>>763665
It is when you spend a decent amount of that time failing.

>>763701
But, that's what makes it interesting.

>>764650
Not if you're the one playing. Here is the video for part 4. One more and I'll be done with this game.

So...you're going to cheat on all the games you play?

>>760872
>every game for the NES

Godspeed.

>>765370

Yeah. There are only about 1800-1900 games for it.

Would be a neat idea if it was plausible, OP. Unless are a fucking demigod with nothing else to do with your life, you're not going to be able to beat even half of the NES library in this lifetime.

I would personally do something more reasonable like a more obscure console with a smaller library (7800, Jaguar, Turbografx)

>>765454
Or if you're really insistent on NES, just play an hour or so of each to showcase each title, unless you particularly like the game.

>>765462

Ultimately, this will probably be what will end up happening. I say I'm going to beat each game, but if I don't enjoy the game, I'm not going to force myself to play it.

Maybe I'll change how I do the channel. Depending on the genre of game, I'll play each one for either a specific length of time or until I beat the first level. This way I can showcase the basic merits of each title. Then if I find a game I enjoy or there is a game that a lot of people want to see, I can create a full playthrough of it.

Would you guys find that more enjoyable?

Sounds like it could be pretty informative.

What are you going to do about games that don't have a defined ending, like arcade ports?

Getting to a kill-screen is usually a huge feat within itself.

>>765623

With the format I think I might try, I'd probably play them for a set amount of time.
