Of all the NES games I played and ended up constantly stuck on, I managed to beat a good amount of them. Ninja Gaiden and Castlevania eventually went down, but both were pretty difficult. With some, though, it never happened. The big one I wanna eventually go back to is Fester's Quest...that game is freakin difficult even with a turbo controller. I also never beat Deja Vu because my copy of the game died inexplicably, along with a few others (Gunsmoke, noooo) I think my NES ate them or something...for a time its connectors were crap until I cleaned them, but by then the damage was done.
And then there was Golgo 13: Top Secret Episode. Technically, I have beaten it. Practically, I haven't...I used an emulator and savestates to get to the ending and it took 2 hours even then. Good ol' Duke Togo. Biggest appendage in the world, M-16 aficionado, able to speak 50 languages so fluently he could seduce a Japanese woman in Aramaic...and his one weakness? Shitty collision detection. |
