What are your greatest retro gaming achievements? For me it is beating the Grim Reaper with no sub-weapons in Castlevania NES.

Matei is fat now, and James got slim. Weird timeline.

I pulled off a few difficult sequence breaking techniques in Super Metroid and Link to the Past. As a kid, I always felt like I could bomb jump infinitely in SM somehow, and it was vindicating to learn that someone figured out the rhythm. Ironically, it’s the same for LTTP, with bomb gap jumping (though that particular trick is easy).

He's good, but he's not that good. Anyone of those that fit the bill never prove themselves either.

He’s literally on Twitch every day proving his skill at some of the hardest retro games known to man in front of an audience of thousands, stop being salty.

he's good at certain games, I wouldn't say he's a god tier gamer

I beat BattleToads on my first try without dying. I also beat Ghosts n Goblins with my eyes closed. I found all three warp whistles by myself my first time playing. I didn't use a guide or anything. I beat Spy Hunter on my first try. It was easy.

Leave Mike alone. Sure he made some mistakes in the past but without him AVGN would be nothing. Please, just stop criticizing Mike, he’s one of the good guys.

don't get me wrong, I watch him sometimes, he's entertaining but he's certainly not god tier

Most people don't believe me but I found the easter egg in Megaman X legit without any outside help. My logic was that filling E-tanks was much harder than getting extra lives. It just so happen to be the best place to farm extra health for the E-tanks.

I think that is part of his appeal. Sometimes I even think he fakes it.
He is semi bad at games but super bad at understanding them. Like that Wizard of Oz playthrough, where he takes ages to figure out that he can replay stages. Or in that later castle level where he takes ages to figure out where to go... holy shit, he either has bad eyesight, or doesn't understand what he is looking at. Maybe it's his screen, too small or too big or something...
Also SC2 sucks and broodwar is much better.

My greatest retro gaming achievement? It's making retro games myself.
And in progress... maybe beating Donkey Kong Country. Or beating super ghost n ghouls multiple times in a row.

Not really a big achievement, but I breezed through the entire megaman x2 at the mall's kiosk. I can still feel my satisfaction from that day.
