Holy fuck, why did i wait to play this? This is one of the most rewarding and fun games out there, it's even better than Castlevania 3.

For some reason it's bugged when I try to play it on vita emulators. Is this a known problem? How do I resolve it?

Gameplay is interesting, but it's extremely short. I still prefer CV III because it's more challenging.

This and umihara Kawase are the best gameplay on any system in my opinion.

Sunsoft were gods on the NES. Shame they shit the bed during the next generation.

Sunsoft fell for the "contract western developers for your games" meme, like so many have. I think their only in-house developed 4th gen games were Batman and Superman for the Genesis, everything else was done by >western devs.

It's honestly hard to believe that this game is a NES game. I know it was a later release, but damn, it honestly looks more like a PCE/TG-16 game. The graphics on the game blew me away.

If anyone's an expert at Gimmick, or just a massochist, try the romhack Dark Gimmick. It's insane, you have to get gud at the star physics and riding them and such. I've not beat Gimmick yet, but have got to level 6 (castle) with all hidden items. I thought maybe I was good enough for Dark Gimmick, but it frickin destroyed me. I'm off work on vacation for a couple weeks, I guess I need to keep working on beating Gimmick.

Thanks for the (You) but I have no idea what you're talking about on hating RPG... assuming it's bait.

I purposely didn't use "gameplay games" when I posted as it was too much like shitposting in a thread about a good game.

Any way to play this on a USA NES? I'm guessing repros are plentiful

>> No.4942923

>>4942505

Repros are like $75 or more becase it's a pretty special board. You're honestly better off playing on a flash cart (what I do), or emulate it. Be aware it's physics are epic and even small amounts of lag will screw you, so have a good emulator setup if you're going that way. On pc it should be fine, but on nes classic it had enough lag to make it much more difficult than it should be.
