Not only did this game have that MMC-3 chip(or MMC-5) to help with some of the graphic enhancements, but more famously has a unique special sound chip to be able to sound like it does. I believe the only other game to utilize that sound chip was Mr. Gimmick. Too bad Batman:ROTJ is not very fun, it is so clunky on all versions.
At least a few times per week, I mutter the words "Hooah... made it through-ah" to myself and think of Arcus and his Ninja Gaiden runs. Makes me happy.
Excuse me Arcus, but are you possibly the most chill speedrunner ever to have existed? I just can't fathom how absolutely rock solid and cool you're keeping yourself while playing challenging speedruns, drinking stuff and commenting on chat at the same time, all with a very comforting voice as well. Love it!
Its nice to watch him, compared to say 98% of youtube. I dont need monotone, but, its nice he is so calm and seems happy as well. I get tired of youtube people who have to dramatize every single thing that happens. Glad I found his channel now if I could just catch one of his streams.
Nice thing about finding this channel recently and watching some of the old vids is that it’s inspired me to go back and attempt to beat some of the retro games that tormented me as a child. Finally beat Zelda 2 yesterday went from a game I spent decades hating to a Zelda game I actually kind of appreciate now. Go figure. Great run, really enjoying the vids.
Naoki Kodaka and his team made some killer music back in the day. Def worth checkin out all the other games they did the soundtracks for. Niko's 8BitStereo has enhanced versions, highly recommended.
It's like Batman has Uncle Fester's gun from Fester's Quest. On second thought, it feels like it uses a lot of the same sound effects as well. Blaster Master as well. Guess Sunsoft reused assets.
Well, when you have some awesome assets to use, no need to not repeat them in other games. Back then, development was so different from today, they almost had to.
Wow, this game is awesome, never knew about it until today, and it's taken such a drastic departure from the first one. It resembles Contra/Probotector. Awesome game.
You know you are watching a top world record holding speed runner when he make a game this hard look so easy and smooth. I never beat this game like the other Batman. Not even close. Not only are you flying through the game, but keeping a cool head while reading chat. Damn legend! I would get frustrated by my little sister running into my room and asking me questions while trying to play these games. I was never one of these kids who broke their controllers, but I did cuss and use some choice words.
I don't even think I could do this if I studied the videos move for move. Even with the information here and at my finger tips I still think this is far past what I could do in the amount of time Arcus spends on these things. Maybe in a years time I might be able to mimic it. But that would be one game that I would have to focus solely upon in a years time. He does all this plus a list of other games that he has memorized move for move. That is on par with guitar playing and instruments. Pro level stuff here man.
I remember that the cartridge for this game weighed more than everything I held in my hands! I would like to know is it really so now, or does technology work wonders?
Cool run. Nothing about this game feels like Batman though. I'm just curious if it was a reskin to raise sales in the west? Guess I've got some snooping to do. lol
The original game had incredible atmosphere like the Tim Burton film. I had this one in my hands in WalMart, but at $50 I barely decided against it. I think I made the right choice that day.

...and can we just take a moment are remember how fantastic these graphics are for a NES game?
Sunsoft games always look good. Their style of NES games are probably my favorite on the system. Definitely had some of the best music as well.
Not only did this game have that MMC-3 chip(or MMC-5) to help with some of the graphic enhancements, but more famously has a unique special sound chip to be able to sound like it does.

While we're reminiscing, can we remember how hard it was
@@Chicomite Arcus definitely makes this game look a lot more fun than it really is lol. This game isn't as smooth as he makes it appear
Better than fortnite and cold war
At least a few times per week, I mutter the words "Hooah... made it through-ah" to myself and think of Arcus and his Ninja Gaiden runs. Makes me happy.
Im the same way but with "clunk"

That 8bit music made the game so much better. I wish newer games got back into the old school 8bit soundtracks. Nice run!
The keyword is retro videogames. Almost mainstream at least within the age 29-45 demographic
Arcus makes speedrunning into a yoga treatment. I am more relaxed during his plays than I am at any time.. Ever.
Only place you can watch a full playthrough of a game while on the toilet. Keep up the great content
Very impressive speed run thanks for the content Mr. Arcus.
that was a good clunk
thats what I say every bowel movement 🚽

That one gun goes, "blulululululululu..."
Guns talks
WHAT a good speedrun jojo
@@drbuni that’s correct, Arcus produces very good quality.
And here I was sheltering in place wondering what to watch. And clunk.
Good run. That 7-1 stage had me on edge but u got through
🔥🔥🐯🔥🔥 Superb
The music in this game is stellar

Buying a game for $60 back in 1991: "Up to 14 minutes of fun"
It takes you many hours to get to that point though
Most people never beat this game lol.
@John Syzlack no way. NES and SNES games were $60+. That’s why I stuck with SEGA after starting with Gameboy.
Ok zoomer.
@John Syzlack $40 to $50. Any NES game as low as $30 had to have been on sale.
Batman was always ahead of superman when it comes to video games.
I love to see you play bro keep the humming going
It's like Batman has Uncle Fester's gun from Fester's Quest. On second thought, it feels like it uses a lot of the same sound effects as well. Blaster Master as well. Guess Sunsoft reused assets.
That was really common back then though. Some game developers were really bad with doing it.
Well, when you have some awesome assets to use, no need to not repeat them in other games. Back then, development was so different from today, they almost had to.
@@The_Bad_Guy. I know it was common.
@@garvensman Not really.
All of Sunsoft is reused assets. But the games... They were all awesome that I know of. Even Fester.. Yeah I said it.
Really enjoy your content bro
Brings tears of joy to my eyes
1:21
audio programming here is spectacular
just as the graphics masterful work
Merry Christmas Arcus! Just discovered your channel, and have really been enjoying it.
You deserve an Arcus treat
Nicely done. That background looks like my hometown Arizona 🌵
Looking forward sometime to another one of those massive marathon multi-hour runs where you beat like 23 games or whatever those are awesome
Great run Arc!
This game is a masterpiece.
great video and man this game has some great music
Watched u practicing this on twitch glad you finally mastered it
Whoever made the music should have won an Oscar. Especially with system limitations. 💯
@ZCS haha yeah. I get so confused given they give Emmy's to politicians now. 😃
GG Arcus .. Not the way i play games, but for speed run its very very very good .. Subscribed 👍👍
Loved this game. Great run!
It's cool around 6:00 how they drew the foreground elements as distorted/blurry to simulate motion blur.
ASMR speed runs, by Arcus :)
dang the music in this is phenomenal
This guy is a legend.
I'm always impressed by the look of this game.
Increíbles gráficas, de los juegos que explotaron todo el poder de la consola en aquellos entonces. 🥰❤️❤️❤️❤️
loved the music sync in stage 6-1
Wow, this game is awesome, never knew about it until today, and it's taken such a drastic departure from the first one. It resembles Contra/Probotector. Awesome game.
Muy buen juego, gracias por el recuerdo, tiempos aquellos, horas de juego en la tarde.
Once again, all I hear is Festers Quest.
This guy is the Bob Ross of speedruns.
I was so blown away by this game when it came out.
LOL, My maaaaannnn! Awesome vid Arcus!
Great job Arcus.
Just subbed, thanks for the speedrun
that soundtrack is glorious
Your such a peaceful guy. Your the cowboy Bob Ross of speed running. :)
Return of the Jo-Joker ;)
I've never played this game...love the music in it!
I had this game when I was a kid omg so many memories
Twisted Sister : I Wanna Rock
Arcus: I Wanna Clunk!
You Crushed it Bro! 😮
Impressive performance man!!! You should do Super Spy Hunter next.
You know you are watching a top world record holding speed runner when he make a game this hard look so easy and smooth. I never beat this game like the other Batman.
Not even close. Not only are you flying through the game, but keeping a cool head while reading chat. Damn legend!
I would get frustrated by my little sister running into my room and asking me questions while trying to play these games. I was never one of these kids who broke their controllers, but I did cuss and use some choice words.

He does all this plus a list of other games that he has memorized move for move. That is on par with guitar playing and instruments.
Pro level stuff here man.
The Advantage has some good covers of some of the tunes in this game
Can't get enough of that Sunsoft bass slap
I remember playing and beating this when it came out.
Great times 👍
Could u please upload more videos on RUclips Arcus?? Thank u so much!!
When you had 1 flashing health my heart was pounding just watching. You were as cool as a cucumber playing. 😎
Damn, this game looks like early 16-bit title. Graphics are insane for a NES game...
Happy New Year! Maybe a burrito speed run to start off the year? 🌯
This game has fantastic music.
Recent sub here in Tucson! Have you ran through legendary wings? I remember that game when I was younger!
Wow, Señor, Usted Juega Muy Bien, Like para ti
I can yell this is a Sunsoft game from all the Festers questey type noises.
The game design is soooo good
The graphics to this Nes game is amazing. :o
I remember that the cartridge for this game weighed more than everything I held in my hands! I would like to know is it really so now, or does technology work wonders?
When Batman met castlevania and megaman.
Very good looking NES game :-)
great games and great times!
The robot strikes back. Hail to the automaton
You forgot to say “Smash...smash...aanndd klunk” still you’re a pro gamer
Eat that cottage cheese eat that cottage cheese!
Amazing .. love this game but could never beat it
Where can i download the rom 🙏
🇲🇽✌️
Did Batman bergal Festers Quest gun closet?
I used to play this on Sega. The music is awesome
Why music and sounds seems like in game super spy hunter?
Cool run. Nothing about this game feels like Batman though. I'm just curious if it was a reskin to raise sales in the west? Guess I've got some snooping to do. lol
man that tank has a lot of crew.
LOL I was thinking the same thing, those guys must have been packed in like a clown car.
YOU ARE GOD
And Clunk
That was great! Would you ever grind for wr on this game?
That was amazing
Mash mash mash
Mash, mash, mash and klunk! That’s your everyday phrase.
His face as a cartoon. With the slogan mash mash mash. Big bucks. No doubt. You're welcome
Hey Arcus! Just curious as to whether or not you've been grinding Ninja Gaiden lately?? Love your videos man! MASH MASH MASH!
is there no way to refill life during a stage?
Nice run! Legacy of the Wizard in your sights?
Would love to see a snake rattle n roll run
How fast are his inputs when he mashes? Is there software out there to see how many "beats" per minute a professional speed runner can mash?
The arrow shot weapon is the only one I use throughout the game.
the original batman game is so much better. But either way, great run Arcus. Are you ever going for the wr in this?
The original game had incredible atmosphere like the Tim Burton film. I had this one in my hands in WalMart, but at $50 I barely decided against it. I think I made the right choice that day.
I would love to see you do a speed run of Castlevania 4.
Yes indeed. Simon’s Quest too. Actually never saw him do anything other than NES.
@Hentavese That's cool. Haven't seen that.
I never realized how Mega Manny the music was in this game until now.
Mash mash mash you're the best 👌
