    Bootsy is a fucking trooper. He never raged while playing this game. Who the hell would start from the begining and be calm as he was?

      @VTuber_Central Год назад +12

      people who can do these type of games typically don't rage, i've never seen a speed runner who rages, they understand the mindset and are super meticulous
      this is how people can beat "getting over it" but also speed runners can beat it

    People around my age (38) don't have friends to get together (in person), and play games (especially retro games), cause most ppl my age don't have lifelong friends from childhood. I played tons of games in my youth with friends, but one way or another you move on from them unfortunately, and to find new ppl to get together and play nes games is very, very hard. I'm sure James and Mike's friendship goes back to childhood.

    • @Ek70R
      @Ek70R 6 лет назад +17

      @D G yea me too. Id prefer to play with friends in the couch or with my family, it is one thousands times better. Remember the days of mario kart or mario party with friends on the 64? It was a BLAST. I guess you dont play games not because your AGE, but because man we have no time for anything.
      I am 26, and have given up gaming because simply I have other priorities, i have no kids tho neither. But work/gym/social/self improvement eats all my time. Sucks to be an adult.

    I finally beat the game tonight without using any warps or continues. It took me nearly a year and a half of playing the game regularly, but I finally did it! On my last life too. It is an awesome feeling to beat the game in its entirety, knowing that there are so few who have done it.

  • @jay_cee583
    @jay_cee583 9 лет назад +12

    Pretty fun game! You can still finish the game with two players if you can get to stage 11 with any continues remaining. Let player two game over but *not* continue, so you can beat stage 11 with one player, and then player two can press start during the blue map screen afterward and it'll use up a continue to join back in for stage 12. Hope that helps!

    I think local multiplayer is one my favorite things on gaming. It’s so fun to play with your friends with them next to you. The reactions and there seems to be a kinder reaction when your friends are actually there and not behind a screen.

  • @Peter_1986
    @Peter_1986 Месяц назад

    I appreciate that James always clearly points out the number 1 spot when he mentions a number 2 spot, like at 0:35 for example;
    it irritates me a lot when people say "this one was number 2" and then don't say a word about number 1, so it is nice to see that James is like "and by the way, this was number 1".

If you had original Nintendo you would have to buy the Turbo controller separately.

    Ok, I'm going to dispel the confusion over the various Battletoads releases again. There are five proper games:
    1. Battletoads (NES)
    2. Battletoads (GB)
    3. Battletoads and Double Dragon (NES)
    4. Battletoads in Battlemaniacs (SNES°
    5. (Super) Battletoads (Arcade)
    That's it. All the rest are ports, most of them watered down.
    Also:
    -to beat this version with two players, you have to waste Player 2's current continue on stage 11, then just bring him back for stage 12.
    -Bootsy actually took a shortcut on Karnath's Lair, that final snake is supposed to do a few more waves and it's pretty crazy.
    -Sharks take 6 hits to actually kill, ducks are immortal. You could have simply jumped over most of them though.

    I'll never forget the straight hours I had to put into each level, dying time and time again using the infinite lives code just to get through the game. On the sewer level, I gave up after about 3 hours of making no progress (and nearly gave up on the orb level after another 3), but I have seen and beaten all the levels, with the code of course. Tensed up and congratulated Bootsy as I watched every moment of this video. What a fantastic job he did; ridiculous game, will never forget it as long as I live.

    James, I totally agree with you that this game is the hardest game I've ever played, (ESPECIALLY the ninja Gaiden games!)
    at least the Genesis version of battletoads was slightly dumbed down but they took out the story in that one, which sucks

    I'm getting Rare Replay even though don't own an Xbone, so that in the future when I get an Xbone for cheap, I'll be able to enjoy my favourite classics, even though I own them in their original format already. It's Rare, I have to support them (I also supported the old Rare members with Yooka-Laylee).

      MikeHoopla I like supporting the launch sales of games (it helps show the developer that there's interest in their product), and it's only going to be $30 + tax, so it's not a big deal.

    Watching Mike saying that Super Pitfall is one of the hardest games he ever beat made me so proud of myself because it's one of the few really hard games that I've had the chance to beat when I was a kid. And it's also the greatest unbelievable gaming story I have because when I beat it I was about to take it back to the video store and decided to give it a last try. When I made it I was so happy, all I could think is that noone would believe me, so I ran to my best friend's house to call him to see it (it was something like 11am, when everyone was having lunch before going to school). When we came in the ending was already over and the game was on its start screen. Neither I saw the ending nor my friend believed me. Total bummer.
