This game is called Phantasm in Japan, and its cover was the ghost with some characters in manga style. They changed it for something more "usa = movies" as they always seemed to believe at this time. The arcade version is more a credit feeder with a lot of stuff hard to avoid. This GB version is probably the better game.
long lost the games, that were full of fun and with a weird dificulty attached to them. now everything is spoon fed to the players and full of dlc. thanks for bringing these fun memories back to us Mike!
Mike really steps on the gas when he's got a challenging game to beat. Nice music and I can also picture my frustration if I was playing this game as a kid.
Love the new channel with all your content and help with friends Mike, would you consider doing castlevania or mega man with bootsy in a future episode? That would be really cool man. Thanks for doing what you are doing, its been alot of fun dude. Peace!
I did, couldn't resist. I got the Hi-Skate shoes with the Nintendo controllers on them (they're even on the aglets) and they will NEVER be leaving my feet.
I bought this game back in 92 or 93 during a trip to Gatlinburg. I remember because I watched SNL with Cypress Hill/Shannom Doherty in our condo that night -- Cypress was banned for life for smoking a joint on TV, and I think Doherty was banned for being a bitch. I loved playing as the Guru simply because I could fly, and it took me until the arcade version to realize that Dracula flashes people when he attacks. And as for that cover. if I didn't already know about the game through Game Pro, I'd have assumed it was about a vengeful mobster.
Oh, and if you miss all the keys. the game ends with the ghost lamenting that he left his girlfriend to die, but keeps smiling anyway. It's a lot harder though because you have to play as a Level 5 enemy.
I saw the cover when the stream was loading yesterday (I only saw part) and I was like why is there a gangster with a thompson on the front? It's a robot game. Then there was a ghost, and I was just super confused by the art. Weird game, but looks kinda fun in that goofy as hell way.
Welp, considering you're already dead, it was going to end bad one way or another. I wish we had more games where we played as ghosts, unlike most games where ghosts are the bad guys.
It's one of the enemies in the game, if I'm not mistaken - so, you could have, like, any enemy from the game on the cover, (e.g. the mech shooting missiles LOL) and would still make about as much sense... unless I'm missing the plot or sth xD
Definitely agree with Mike that that has to be one of the most misleading cover arts for a game ever. Definitely need to recommend to Mike to play this game again to have a more complete version on YT.
Ok, so the main programmer was named "you talk sack of shit"? Was trolling a thing back then? or did his parents not know any english or just didnt like their mistake

I'm that asshole that keeps saying play Rockin Kats. Please play Rockin Kats.
That's some obscure gem right here.
17:00 You can just walk over it!
Hey! I played this one on the arcade! The girl you rescue is in fact the ghost girlfriend when he was alive.

Will you pick up the vans Nintendo collab pack?
I did, couldn't resist. I got the Hi-Skate shoes with the Nintendo controllers on them (they're even on the aglets) and they will NEVER be leaving my feet.
+thatonedrewguy the aglets on the Mario pair is the wii controler

Play Zelda Link's Awakening Please Mike.
Surprised how this games soundtrack is never brought up anywhere ever.
I remember playing the arcade version a long time ago. Strange game but very creative

I was wondering what would happen if you do this, so thanks for the info!

That was a surprisingly melancholy ending ...

Did I miss something. The box art doesn't seem to have fuck all to do with this game about a mech shooting missiles.
i thought the same thing

This game has some great music.

The Colors Look very amazing in the "SUPER GAME BOY"

I Remember the game perfectly :')
#nostalgic
why is the cover art so different than the game?
I don't get The ending?
Mike is just AWSOME
Damn the ending is sorta dark.
How
He had the lights off xD
this is the good ending. look up the bad ending and ull see something dark.
Mike! play Iron -Man vs X-O Man-O-War!
This looks like a fun game
Do you use a Super game boy 2 or the inferior original version?
This is not The Guardian Legend.
Wow, you did well
Mike play Touhou!!!
Damn
Wow, the coverart. Looks nothing like the game at all. Does not even target the same audience.
Wow, that cover is awful!
