Impressive how so many R rated films got NES adaptations for the kids to play. The NES was how I first got introduced to Nightmare on Elm Street, Total Recall, and Robocop.
Finally...at age 43 and *30 years later* I finally get to see the stages of this game beyond the Xray machine. The farthest I ever made it. Got to say...looking at it now,its incredibly simple.
1:48 - I would love to see this reenacted in an actual action movie. Henchman 1: Hey, look, the hero is coming! Henchman 2: Okay, remember the plan! We stand behind this fence, and try to punch him through these tiny holes as he walks by! Henchman 1: Boss, isn't this plan kind of stupid? Henchman 2: Don't question it, and do it!
Best represention of totall recall. Got most of it down like the movie. Environment and boss battles. I know people like the Amiga version but that version the backtracking and collecting takes forever to complete. Not much variety as this version we got Sharon stone as a boss battle!!! Very cool.
This game made no scence, get an extra life by watching the credits in a movie theather, Get punch through the holes by some hechman, You get to kill Michelle Phiffer early, Micheal Ironside looks like a demented Mr Burns, Beat up a homeless bum with a bommerang hat!? weird and awkard game. The gamemakers should pay you for finishing this game
In the early levels, if Richter caught up to you, it was the end of the game and you couldn't beat him. So if he showed up at the apartment with his machine gun before you could leave, all you could do was take your medicine.
Is this a Mandela effect or a different game - I could’ve sworn there was a part where the glass got broken on the Mars level and there’s a wind trying to suck you out of the window
I just bought this today (march 2024) im really enjoying it! I like how the enemies fly off the screen. I like the level variety. And its really one of those "just get good " games. Its hard but it doesnt seem unfair. As a kid, no. I didnt make it far. But for the 12 bucks i paid for it at a retro store ,im really enjoying it.
I like this game for the most part, the 2nd stage was hard at first but once you learn how to get past it, it’s actually easy. The 3rd stage though PISSES me off, those dogs are damn near impossible to fend off and once they’re on you they take like half your health away and on top of the dogs you have to deal with the soldier dude who hops around everywhere, it’s so infuriating.
I used to played this game and it was a terrible game based off a good movie. It had some “Terminator” references which has never happened in the movie after you lose a life.
This game is okay, but the worse part that you can't see on video is that the combat is pretty stiff and inconsistent. Walking and jumping are totally fine when the game isn't asking for precision (it does a few times), but punching locks you in place, is slow, and doesn't hit well. It seems like it works worse against a few enemies where, I don't know if their hitboxes are off, or they have an invincibility state that turns on and off while they're walking around. Shooting can either be really fast and deadly, or slow and leaving you vulnerable and I think now I understand why: The amount of bullets you can shoot is tied directly to how many sprites are on screen! And it's not like Mega Man where you can only shoot 3 and while those are there you can't shoot more, it's the amount of enemies and other things happening. If it's a 1v1 it's a button-spam machine gun, but if the screen's busy it will shoot different amounts at random, or not shoot at all, and also when it does it locks you in place, which is deadly if only one bullet decides to come out of the gun
Seanbaby listed this as one of the worst NES games of all time, and was actually threatened by one of the producers: Mike Arkin, screaming at Seanbaby and other reviewers to "Get over it already!" It ended with Mike saying he had no need for lawyers....since he had guns.
So far there's: Nightmare on Elm Street Total Recall Robocop Robocop 2 Friday the 13th Bram Stoker's Dracula Cliffhanger Rambo Dirty Harry Conan the Barbarian Die Hard Platoon The Terminator Terminator 2 The Untouchables The Blues Brothers
What I could not figure out is when you defeat the hobo at the cement factory and the cutscene and the guy who gives Arnold the brief case says first watch the movie and press a and b buttons. I could not figure what the a and b buttons do when you press them
If , after that point, you game over, when you start again simply enter the credits cinema on level one and hit AB and you'll warp to the final level, is my understanding
I. Hate. This. Game. Seriously, I friggin' hate it with a passion. It might not be the worst out there, but that doesn't stop my hatred one bit. One of those "weekend ruining" games for me. I swear somewhere I read that the security guards in the game are actually called the "Police Cops", too.
Simple game, but great how faithfully it follows the film for the most part for it's age. Bear in mind how bad most movie tie=in games are, even now, never mind back then
This game isn't very good, but it's not the worst either. I find this to be better than Predator for NES. That one isn't Complete trash, but it still sucks hard though
Well this is hilariously unexpected that you would post this today. Driving home from work I was considering the next game I should start focusing on playing to record. It occured to me that I still needed to do Back to the Future 2&3, and I shit you not, I said outloud to myself "that game violates the Geneva convention." Smh, crazy coincidence, right? I totally forgot about that moment til I read this.
Ha ha this game is so terrible for a movie game. They got so cheap on the graphics and game play just using the name. Level 1 . I must have a different version. Because I can't kill Sharon stone fast enough then the guy comes in shooting impossible to kill
I love how everybody just flies out of the screen when you hit them! They all just go sailing out of the TV screen. What fun! Three breasted alien chicks are fine but a game where you SHOOT YOUR WIFE? ...Kinda sounds like a typical marriage actually.
Impressive how so many R rated films got NES adaptations for the kids to play. The NES was how I first got introduced to Nightmare on Elm Street, Total Recall, and Robocop.
Yep, there's a lot of them, I made a list as well for rated r movie based NES games.
Probably because there were quite a bit of parents that let their kids watch R rated movies.
Genesis did this amap
And how crappy they usually turned out.
Total Recall on the NES might lack the lady with three boobs, but it does provide a reasonably entertaining romp through the events of the film.
Well ummm it does follow the movie and it's not made by Ljn LOL
At least arnold LOOKS like arnold
Aww! :( What a dealbreaker. I don't wanna play this game now!
NintendoComplete Does it looks like real Arnold.
I'm more disappointed that Thumbellina wasn't in the game ( the dwarf stripper)
Finally...at age 43 and *30 years later* I finally get to see the stages of this game beyond the Xray machine. The farthest I ever made it. Got to say...looking at it now,its incredibly simple.
I swear man
same
incredibly simple but incredibly hard. I think I got the screen past where you drive the car on Mars and that was it.
It was a really hard game.
customs agent: have you brought any fruits or vegetables onto the planet?
fat lady: two weeks.
Whatch out, here goes a surprise BBBOOOMM

You don't want to see the live-action movie because those aren't fists
It's been reenacted, but not in action movies.
That would be a better movie compared to 2012 shitty remake
This is one of my favourite movies.
Yep, it's a really great movie, I liked it a lot as well.
And one of the worst games.
@@livioprovenzi2672 Far from it.
Arnold Schwarzenegger: You Have Lost A Life Prepare For Another Attempt! I’ll Be Back!
"Glory hole fence" - I see where that came from
It’s a reference to Philip K. Dick, original author of the story the film is based on.
This game was really hard as a kid. That damn hobo with the hat was a pain in the ass
I dont remember Arnold killing so many homeless people in the movie.
Of course he did. How else was he going to reach his battle with Oddjob?
As a child, I was never able to go beyond the wife. This sounds like destiny now that I am married.
Lmao. I'll keep my fingers crossed that you don't have to shoot her.
@@NintendoComplete More like pray that Michael Ironside doesn't show up at his front door and shoots at him with his gun with unlimited ammo, lol.
When you kill those hobos at the cement factory, only a pile of brown clothes remain. Are you jedi masters?
Amazing that you can sit thru and finish this game
I miss Fred Fuchs.
Enthusiastic Arnolds face from a trip company is unforgettable ^^
Blue sky on Mars. That's a new one.
Best represention of totall recall. Got most of it down like the movie. Environment and boss battles. I know people like the Amiga version but that version the backtracking and collecting takes forever to complete. Not much variety as this version we got Sharon stone as a boss battle!!! Very cool.
Remember in the movie when Quaid fought homeless Oddjob to get the briefcase. That part was awesome.
Finally somebody who knows their 0️⃣0️⃣7️⃣!
8:35 Wow, Oddjob sure has fallen on hard times. Or is that Danny DeVito cosplaying as Oddjob? It's hard to tell.
Just watched Total Recall, saw during the credits that there was a NES game. Pretty cool stuff.
I thought this was going to be a WTH fest, like with NES Predator. But I'm actually impressed with the thought that went into this game.
What da FUUUUCCCKKK did I do wrhong
Loved this game. Had robocop as well.
This game made no scence, get an extra life by watching the credits in a movie theather, Get punch through the holes by some hechman, You get to kill Michelle Phiffer early, Micheal Ironside looks like a demented Mr Burns, Beat up a homeless bum with a bommerang hat!? weird and awkard game. The gamemakers should pay you for finishing this game
Ed Paradis
Michelle Pfeiffer wasn’t in Total Recall. Sharon Stone played the wife.
Idiot
At the beggining of the game above the cinamea theres actully some health if you in the windows in the right order
2:32 I can't tell you how many times I rage quit this game because of that one machine gunner at the door!
In the early levels, if Richter caught up to you, it was the end of the game and you couldn't beat him. So if he showed up at the apartment with his machine gun before you could leave, all you could do was take your medicine.
The Benny Drill Boss, OMG hilarious.
Remember in the movie when Arnold went threw building after building killing hundreds of bums
Is this a Mandela effect or a different game - I could’ve sworn there was a part where the glass got broken on the Mars level and there’s a wind trying to suck you out of the window
That's the movie you're thinking about.

The remake of this movie was pure shit
10:49 "This is the plan: Get your ass to Mars."
I used to played this game and it was a terrible game based off a good movie. It had some “Terminator” references which has never happened in the movie after you lose a life.
This game is far from terrible.
Learning how to spell is a good idea before you start spouting BS! This game was a great game with great challenges.
I never made it past the bum with the hat. With my strat I never had a chance. No wonder, it took like 70 jabs from Quaid.
I died on that part so many times before I realized I could get behind him. Never thought about luring him with the ladder, though.
I remember getting this game I rented it from blockbusters in Boston this was the worst game I've ever played one of them anyways
Dat face in thumbnail tho
There is like no explanation as to what is happening or what the premise is until you beat the game...
16:26 that head scene is good at the end been shoot off by Schwarzenegger lol
I Miss Fred Fuchs

@@dustman820 Oh yeah, I forgot about that one somehow...man the NES had a lot of them.
8:24 CPU PLAYED 😆😆

I've never known this game exists!!!! 😮

16:27 Reminds me of the Ghostbusters Action Figure of Winston!
Why does Arnold look so normal in the title screen?
DAD MAN I NEED SOME TIME OFF HOW BOUT A BREAK ILL NEVER HAVE A GOOD DAY.......NES TOATAL REKALL GREY 12 bit
Doesn’t he look like the guy from Mary Poppins at 14:10
This game isn't very good, but it's not the worst either. I find this to be better than Predator for NES. That one isn't Complete trash, but it still sucks hard though
Im old nes terminator 2.
Recall
very similar to another Interplay game: Rad Gravity… looks like they adapted the same codebase :)
I loved Rad Gravity! It was so weird.
@@NintendoComplete totally agree! the only NES game I never finished by myself! :( :)
He looks like Burt from Mary Poppins
This. Is. Painful.
Game where you shot your wife and homeless...how did it get past censorship again? :) Average game, but much better than most LJN games.
@Nintendocomplete hah you always play the shitty games that the AVGN hates. Not only do you play them but you beat them! Pretty impressive.
It’s my understanding that it’s illegal to force political prisoners to play this game per the Geneva Convention.
Well this is hilariously unexpected that you would post this today. Driving home from work I was considering the next game I should start focusing on playing to record. It occured to me that I still needed to do Back to the Future 2&3, and I shit you not, I said outloud to myself "that game violates the Geneva convention." Smh, crazy coincidence, right? I totally forgot about that moment til I read this.
NintendoComplete Great minds think alike.
I never got pass the subway
2:47 "Consider that a divorce."
"What a bitch."
Wow that was boring. They could have had an escape sequence at the end where you fight for air.
16:36
the same company that made the original fallout games
and no credit roll....
*Duh duh doo*
Ha ha this game is so terrible for a movie game. They got so cheap on the graphics and game play just using the name. Level 1 . I must have a different version. Because I can't kill Sharon stone fast enough then the guy comes in shooting impossible to kill
That is Richter. How the heck do they not have him as the next to last boss in this game.
@@dustman820lol thank goodness for youtube who would have known you cant really kill him. But its a hell of a trick on the forst level
To bad games now dont come from movies anymore unless its marvel or something lame
No me sorprende que Acclaim haga juegos tan falopa como este...la verdad podría haber Sido mucho más logrado sonora y graficamente
Mario 64
Wow, what a lousy game.
No way. It was crazy fun and challenging.
On my god this game sucks
I love how everybody just flies out of the screen when you hit them! They all just go sailing out of the TV screen. What fun!
Three breasted alien chicks are fine but a game where you SHOOT YOUR WIFE? ...Kinda sounds like a typical marriage actually.
"Consider that a divorce!"
