Lurker > Radix

rad gravity not as rad as totally rad. bummer dude. and yeah the first 400 loops of that song were not so good

wally bear is neither a wally gator or a yogi bear and definitely not a good video game. was he even a real mascot or is he just some shit made for this game

oh hey havent heard of any of these. well i know felix but i didnt know there was an nes game.

nightshade couldve been neat but no saving kills it. splork and complete weed status are some good lines that need more use

hey wow spiritual warrior looks to be an actual competent video game. wasnt expecting that

oh hey its that guy from karnovs revenge

good ol rampage. another one of the few games my mom would play with me. its kinda not great and very repetitive and missing ralph but "its better than baby boomer and thats it" cmon

totally rad is like totally gnarly dude. way poggers. skibidi

so thats 2 bad hydelide games in aware of are there any good ones. and man those 400 loops of that tune were not so good

never heard of ghoul school or arkistas ring. ghoul school couldve been neat but alas. a speedrun of it is like 5 minutes with what looked like not a ton of glitches so hrm. that difficulty spike in arkista is kinda nuts. cool game though

glad to see nes star wars is of the same fuck this quality as the snes ones
operation secret storm oh wow

casino kid and treasure master both had some good ideas there but yeah not lookin good

With whom did father have a duel and lose?.. For what reason did he fight and die?E Even I don't know for sure.

The day after he disappeared, in father's room I found a letter addressed to me. It said "Ryu, you had a father, but your father's dead"

watched!

dont think i ever played the first double dragon. cant remember if it was 2 or 3 but it was one of those. and that fighting game >>

space shuttle project is uh fascinating? i like the weird intensity of it but it didnt look especially good.
"remember when the space ship blew up?"

mc kids ranked way too low tbh

aw yeah wheres waldo thats the stuff. congrats to ghostbusters for no longer being a bottom 10 game

shattered and kickmaster those are some games ive never heard of and i feel i missed out on.

gyruss i know ive heard that tune and seen it but i dont remember the how or where or when.

and how many sports games are on the nes anyway. really hope we dont end up with several episodes of just sporting it up but uh spending over an hour on kickmaster isnt really helping here

i never actually played the first tmnt game. or maybe i did and it was so forever ago i forgot. i know i watched my cousin play it and he made it to that fucking water level as you do

wasnt expecting dino riki to be a shmup. was expecting it to not be good. dinowarz destruction of spondylous still the best dino game

love me some chip n dale. too bad he couldnt get past that last section

haha oh wow swampthing. of all the games released in 1992 that is apparently one of them. those are some game design decisions made right there. and why a sproing noise for his jumps.

im a base wars enjoyer but yeah its jank. the fielding i remember being not great not so much batting but its been way too long. the fights were great but i remember the flybot being able to basically get an infinite with its slam or whatever. jeff got hit by it after the fight but i think you could do that whenever. granted i was a dumm kid so who knows

skate or die 2 what happened there. looks like there was an ok idea in there but yuck

and also yuck dynatron. thats no dynowarz destruction of spondylous. ended up higher on The List than i was expecting

having not played bionic commando ill assume its something that needs to be played because it didnt look that good at all tbh

taboo is uh wow. imagine paying full price for that. or any price really

confession: i have never played tetris

never heard of buglebay. didnt look good but boy that is some good audio

road blasters seems familiar but i dont know from where. maybe it just resembles some other game already on the List

is there a good clown/circus game on the nes

black bass is what it is. i played a few snes fish games and i remember liking them but this one doesnt look good

yoshi is another game i played a lot with my mom. i remember really liking it but i played it sorta recently on nso and yeah not great. not worse than festers quest tbh

krazy kreatures hey another maxi 15 game. didnt really care for this one

"theres something sexual and forbidden about bald bulls mouth" is certainly a quote

never heard of that crystal castle game. ya go my kim

played shadow of the ninja a bit on nso. didnt care for it
caught a run of gremlins on ESA but dont remember anything about it really

oh and i played mega man. only on the anniversary collection though. 2 and 3 are the only ones i played on an nes

02:25:53 - Town & Country Surf Designs II: Thrilla's Surfari

only experience i have with kid icarus is playing a little bit of the gameboy version. from what i remember i didnt care for it

and good ol chiller. i played it on the maxi 15 cart. i liked that thing even though almost if not everything on it was shit.

what in the fuck is that back to the future game

gilligans island seemed like it might be neat if you know what youre doing?

battletoads way too low tbh

and done. 77.7 hours according to steam

used bloody armor on the MoT boss. normal mode, max level, best equipment, and the spin to win was wiping the party. i 'probably' didnt need it considering super boss #2 went down easily. granted that one is shut down by a simple silver charm so eh. #3 was mostly just moving equipment around till i found something that worked. which i did! the ring of the deep from catching 60 fish came in handy. and then the special arena battle was basically just super boss 3 again.

doubt i try to finish up universe mode but hey maybe one day

finished up claude run. beat it at lvl 180ish because bodyguard is just great. just the 3 super bosses, the special group battle, 2 more endings, and the cooking battle achievements

alsoi hadnt seen that PA in hilton with claude and that kid. seems like the c in claude c kenny stands for christian cage

now that ive watched it

galaxy racer whatever seems familiar. i dont remember playing it but after seeing the title screen i kinda knew what it looked like and that you could shoot in it so maybe i did play it once a time

gun nac looked familiar so i did a check and yeah it was on nick arcade. other list members kabuki quantum fighter and rockin kats were also on but i dont remember seeing them

and man i want an adventure island collection :/

and as im doing this part now
catesdb posted...

if theres an extra instrument in kurik, i could not find it. but having the sprite bracelet thing is dope for early pet food + lv5 familiar = writing

theres a harmonica in the store and a lyre in a chest in the mansion. the last instrument is at the bottom of the bonus dungeon

i forget which adventure island i played a lot of. 2 or 3 i think. willow i saw on a gdq last year maybe?

maybe we should have us a big ol re readthrough topic

so i forgot equipping rainbow diamonds raised IC levels by 1 :/ . at least its mentioned in the item description now!

are the epilogues even canon

catesdb posted...

I died to what I assume is the second-to-last boss last night, then went to bed, so if you cheesed that one, I support it

its the michael and haniel fight. i remember that being the hardest fight my first time through but first universe playthrough went a lot easier. the one here though is a fuck :/

and anyway hit the credits! had trouble surviving the final boss so i got another 20 levels, crafted a few things, hit the races, and did some arenas. i want those bunny shoes but rng be what it do. probably gonna hit up the bonus dungeon but thats gonna need some equipment remaking for factors

saved outside final boss door

had to use bloody armor for one boss battle. felt kinda dirty

then equipped an avoidance ring, scout look for enemies, and bodyguard. gained like 20 levels just by passively going through the 2nd half of the final dungeon. felt kinda fucking vile

https://www.humblebundle.com/games/wb-100-play-legends

mainly posting this because its 10$ for mortal kombats 10 and 11 with all dlc and those will eventually be delisted. injustice 2 and its dlc is also there! i think people like the arkham games. and back for blood is also a game!

so out of curiosity i looked up a speedrun for circus caper
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5GScsuQgQqo

turns out the brick actually is a game changer!

eh no guns no laser swords no eye beams not an animal is she even a tekken character???

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aHoBSy9IMhA

ok so i think were closing in on the reveal

maybe??

there will be a special showcase tonight @8pm ET

made it to the last dungeon aw yeah

and also those kurik fish are indeed elsewhere with the possible exception of one but it seems like secondary areas dont show up until you actually go there so i probably just havent been to the area yet

athena has been dethroned

definitely a good time when a game loads up and "Oh no" is said immediately

trog is one of my fav nes games. its one of the only games my mom played and we played it quite a bit together

never heard of circus caper and now i want to know what the original is like. and based on apparently

and yeah im fairly sure i played caveman games but boy do i not remember any of that. probably for the better!

yo alchemy kinda nice. either that or the levelling >>

got chisato and turned in all those challenges id built up. lot of fol there and hey some more battle skills. also another assist which ive only used once on accident because i never remember they are a thing

ah alchemy theres a skill ive never used. i guess i should look at it more than not at all!

man disc 2 has been destroying me. my previous strat of get eternal sphere and mash through everything doesnt cut it with all the nerfs :( . things are killing me in a few hits and i dont have enough ores to make better armor. should probably look into better weapons for not claude while im at it. been doing some level grinding which i can manage at least. almost 200k exp a chain!

catesdb posted...

you really couldn't do IC in batches of 10 in the original?

nope lol. and you couldnt skip the animation either

i would not recommend playing so3 after this

or at all really
