I'm still passionite and a kid !!! If it comes to games !!! I don't need to win !! Just making some fun !!! Nintendo is da best CONSOLE !!! FUCK THESE PLAYSTATIONS !!! NO FUN !!! YOU FEEL NOTHING !!!! NO EMOTIONS !!!
Scott Hartley my brother you are 110% right,just the build up it’s self was excitement Thursday night going into Friday. We knew from the time stepping off that bus,to the video store,pick out about 4 /6 video games,grab some McDonald’s or pizza,or Chinese food. Don’t let it be raining out for the weekend lol,call your best friend over and let the action begin. The only thing that would mess up the weekend was teachers giving you an assignment called current events. This generation will never ever know what it was like being a kid,and I’m a 80’s baby. The 90’s was that era.
My brother and I spend many hours playing games like Life Force and Double Dragon just to name a few back in the '80's. These games were so fun and and like others here mentioned, the soundtracks were such a big part of it and really just drew you in. Thanks for posting. Brings back great memories.
Watching this brings back good memories for me. I was not into games really but I got all the Nintendo consoles for my son when he was young. When he got older I got him Xbox live. My family is no longer together. God I wish I had a time machine to go back to fix the mistakes I made. To me nothing like family. Very good times for me. I could not remember the name of this to save my life. I did a webserch of 100 Nintendo games and the front of the box looked like it. Now the video ! Great this was one of the games. Thank you to the person that posted it on RUclips. Much more than a game to me. Good times of my life !!!
I remember discovering the Konami code for extra lives worked on this game! I immediately called my neighborhood friend and we quickly went on to finally beat it. Ah, good gaming memories! Double option laser for me!
@Bill Perri Gradius II kick the hell out of both game in NES if it ever released outside of Nippon. But sadly, it didn't happens. Because, it was so heavily influenced by Contra and Super C.
Now this is like lookin at my self doing a ZEN moment. Love this game. Gradius was hell. LifeForce is focus. this was Gradius 2. love the bosses. (The reaching brain). and egypt. thank you for showing.
Same! Literally YEARS. I can’t believe it finally. I used to play this on my uncles Nintendo system and never really checked what the name was. There’s another one similar to this I’m looking for but you weren’t in a fighter jet but you flew around shooting on like rocket packs if I remember correctly. That game was fun too. Graphics look similar
So good. I'm looking at NES shooters and so many just seem half-finished, but this one has everything right -- movement, inventory balance, color contrast, soundtrack. Also we each discovered the same principle for no deaths: dive straight at the eyeball and boil it before the whole screen fills up. :D Pity about the encoding compression. For the audience, you have my solemn oath that the missiles come out both sides and the shield is superimposed. Even better, get a CRT and try it. ;>
I have not read one negative comment about this game. Must be a good reason. Better simpler times. We are now living through some very difficult times. Big change in a short time. I want these times back ASAP.
Man, the memories. I was a little shit back in the day! My parents got me this game(along with a couple others)for my Christmas presents. I found them stashed somewhere before my mom wrapped them for Christmas, so one day I faked being sick for school, unwrapped the game and beat it before my parents came home from work! Then I put it back in the box and stashed it back where it was. My mom never found out. 🤣🤣🤣
One of my 300 best games on my NES Nintendo !!! I think I have now 300 games so far !! Wanna re-live the old good times again? Maybe youth, wanna feel, how it is to play an old Nintendo ?? Everyone is welcome. Let's have some fun. Who is the best gamer ? You or me ? Try me !! Catch some beer and Lays chips !! Woman ? Youth ? no problem. Water and coca cola for me. Can you defeat me in SUPER MARIO bros or other games ?? If so, I will laugh. Hehehhe, having the best time of my life. Respect, It was so fun. So nice to have a playmate again. Even for 1 hour !
I remember my friend would play this game and when he'd finally got to the end and defeated it, I said, "Wow, dude...what a shitty ending." *lol* Good game, tho.
This was the game they had set up to play/demo in my local store...they guy who owned the store hated us hanging around to play this and always kicked us out after an hour haha...it got worse when the snes was released he got a flashy Nintendo demo system that u stood on and had surround sound I think? anyways it was loud fzero was the demo game.. Awesome
Holy crap I never knew Life Force was actually the original Gradius!!!!!!!!! I grew up on Gradius 3 and always wondered why I had never ever seen Gradius 1 or 2.
Played this a ton with my dad back in the day. Loved how it got harder if you beat it. Got pretty good at it. Put it down for like 10 years and when I moved out I hooked up the NES with my roomate and fired it up. I beat the whole game without dying. Roomate was like what the hell did I just see?
This game brings back so many memories! I still own it for the NES and play occasionally. I just bought the remastered addition and was slightly disappointed because the game isn’t the same as the original..it’s still a fun challenge regardless of the differences.
Me as a kid: my little mind blown. Me as a boring adult: I wonder how long it took for the Easter island laser ring shooter heads to be built? That just seems expensive and impractical.
Does anyone know why this version isn't available on any of the arcade collections? This was the one I remember playing on my NES in the UK. It didn't have the annoying voice overs. Other than emulation, you can't seem to buy this specific version for a home console like the switch or the Xbox / PS.
Suddenly remember this game in my childhood because I've never beaten this game 😂 even for today's standard this is still a difficult game to beat i think
Ok, today’s games are awesome, but NES and especially Konami were the companies who made me like video games! This is definitely a classic! And I will never become a tired of games like this, Gradius, Castlevania and Punch Out. Was advanced simplicity their secret?
Such a Konami game. The sound effects from Castlevania and Contra. Whacked out looking boss designs similar to bosses from Contra, and the boss fight theme is basically reused as the underwater theme from the Dam level in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. How come I never found this 30 odd years ago?

Double Dragon 2 my friend.... really makes out my entired childhood's saturday night.
Agree!
Yes indeed! A Super Supreme pizza from Pizza Hut, a bottle of Coca Cola, and some great NES action with friends staying over, and that was good times!

Action802....if you want to see a kid cry today, put him front of the original NES Ninja Gaiden and wish him the best of luck >:)
The soundtrack of this game. . . is irreplaceable. THE BEST!!
What about Gradius 3 soundtrack called Easter Stone? Try to search it..
Have you played castlevania games?
I feel crying sometimes especially when I see these videos to know I came from that era I just don't what it is but this is just sweet
Don't forget laughing at the absurdity of how easy these pros make the game seem.
We are lucky, shit will never be the same again
same here dude
I know exactly how you feel don't feel strange about it. It comes from better simpler times.
I hear ya bro. Soon to be 41 and once was a kid with hopes and dreams. The world changed too much too fast.
Memorieeessss!!!!! Man I loved this game!!!!! 42 years old now. 32 years has passed since then....
My brother and I spend many hours playing games like Life Force and Double Dragon just to name a few back in the '80's. These games were so fun and and like others here mentioned, the soundtracks were such a big part of it and really just drew you in. Thanks for posting. Brings back great memories.
I'm 43 now and I spent hours on this game. Absolutely loved it and the movie. Very nostalgic
am 34 now..played it in around 95..
alwaays was one of the best games...
you took me yeeeeeears back
Watching this brings back good memories for me.
I was not into games really but I got all the Nintendo consoles for my son when he was young. When he got older I got him Xbox live. My family is no longer together. God I wish I had a time machine to go back to fix the mistakes I made.

My dad recently dug out his old Nintendo and was so excited to show me that code lol. We finally beat the game this morning
⬆️⬆️⬇️⬇️⬅️➡️⬅️➡️BABBA select start
**still cant believe this dude PLAYED THIS GAME W/ NO DEATHS!!!!!**
Playing this game meant business. Glad I had a NES when I was a kid.
I remember my old child game.. and this game is make me feel blessed that i live in this era.. so crying moment..
This game was marketed as the sequel to Gradius for the NES. It delivered!
But the true sequel was never fully released outside of Japan. Had to wait until Wii console. Then, it can actually play that.
@Bill Perri
Gradius II kick the hell out of both game in NES if it ever released outside of Nippon. But sadly, it didn't happens. Because, it was so heavily influenced by Contra and Super C.
No it was salamander but the us version get yo facts right
@@forthesakeofthenationalist9375 Yes it did,.. it is called Nemesis for the Gameboy
This just make me appreciate the arcade even more
Best game ever, one of the best soundtracks of my spooky childhood too. Waiting for Anthems release this month.
This game bring back my childhood memories..thanks for the video idol..keep safe
Now this is like lookin at my self doing a ZEN moment. Love this game. Gradius was hell. LifeForce is focus. this was Gradius 2. love the bosses. (The reaching brain). and egypt. thank you for showing.
Love Lifeforce!
I was never very good at videogames, but this was one I could always beat with no losses if I really tried.
Video or it didn't happen 🤷♂️
My gosh, I've been looking for this game for a very long time coz i forgot its name.
Hahahaha me too but found earLyy
I've completely forgot about this game but I'm glad I found this.
Same! Literally YEARS. I can’t believe it finally. I used to play this on my uncles Nintendo system and never really checked what the name was. There’s another one similar to this I’m looking for but you weren’t in a fighter jet but you flew around shooting on like rocket packs if I remember correctly. That game was fun too. Graphics look similar
Playing this game on a big screen was mind blowing. Especially that 3rd boss 😲
You did awesome. The best I can do is no death on all the stages except the third stage (damn solar flares).
OMG I used to play this all the time as a kid this game and the NES Gradius was my pre Thunder Force days. Great Playthrough.
Wow... very good old time... it make me cry. I loved this game. I still have it.
So good. I'm looking at NES shooters and so many just seem half-finished, but this one has everything right -- movement, inventory balance, color contrast, soundtrack. Also we each discovered the same principle for no deaths: dive straight at the eyeball and boil it before the whole screen fills up. :D
Pity about the encoding compression. For the audience, you have my solemn oath that the missiles come out both sides and the shield is superimposed. Even better, get a CRT and try it. ;>
Also for the Boss of Stage 4, do you get more Points for shooting down it’s Eyes?
One of my favorite childhood games. Excellent programming.
On Stage 3, this firey level is terrifying and scary because of the fire that goes up and whooped like a killer rainbow. 😱
Life force... Such a hard game but so fun to play
Great gameplay. I was wondering if you used a cheat but the gameplay was really tight. Congrats.
19:36 X-Men: Apocalypse borrowed from this stage ending lol
You know it’s about to go down when that boss music starts 😳
I love this game, it's in my blood after all these years...
I was playing this when i was 7 y.o on 1996 with my brother 8 y.o, and really happy can beat this until the end. What a sweet memories.
We all feel the same got and played with my son that I love more than life !!!
Every time I see this beautiful game, I remember how innocent childhood days were, as if I was in a dream😢😢😢
I have not read one negative comment about this game.
Must be a good reason. Better simpler times.
We are now living through some very difficult times. Big change in a short time. I want these times back ASAP.
don't forget up,up, down, down, left, right, left, right, b,a start
KONAMI code!. I still remember it more than 30 years later. Right on ☺️
Select, start for 2 players with the code. Good memories.
With game genie you get invincibility.
The soundtracks of this game are amazing!!! It's even better than Gradius 1.
Nice work!) Good game and good music, maybe even better than Gradius 2, thanks man.
Thank you! This game drove me nuts when I was a teen. I owned it and could never beat it (even made it to the final boss once).
Even with KANAMI code? ⬆️⬆️⬇️⬇️⬅️➡️⬅️➡️B A start?
@@willywunder9921 was looking for that tks
Man, the memories. I was a little shit back in the day! My parents got me this game(along with a couple others)for my Christmas presents.

I miss my dead mother. She played with me = Super Mario. I miss these moments so hard.
Life Force (Salamander) is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING and AWESOMELY SENSATIONAL
Played this game when I was 5 years old, best time of my life
15:00 my fav song out of the whole soundtrack, even though everything about this game is epic anyway. Some good times !

i remember playing this on a black and white 13 inch screen tv in 1988! as a kid
Lol the boss at 14:55 used to scare the shit out of my sister, I love this game
So... you love scare your sister? 😂😂😂
This gives me a life force nostolgia. Considering it takes place in a giant organism, it makes it hard in all
The right places.
Honestly this game is my underrated Famicom game since i was a kid..i bet this game 100x ..
Also the gradius 2 and 3
Now this brings back very fond memories.
Always needed my Konami cheat code.
This game is a quality shooter. Still holds up well
I remember my friend would play this game and when he'd finally got to the end and defeated it, I said, "Wow, dude...what a shitty ending." *lol* Good game, tho.
Uno de los mejore juegos del Family!!.
This was the game they had set up to play/demo in my local store...they guy who owned the store hated us hanging around to play this and always kicked us out after an hour haha...it got worse when the snes was released he got a flashy Nintendo demo system that u stood on and had surround sound I think? anyways it was loud fzero was the demo game..

40 years ago, i did not know it is inside human body lol
Holy crap I never knew Life Force was actually the original Gradius!!!!!!!!! I grew up on Gradius 3 and always wondered why I had never ever seen Gradius 1 or 2.
I always play this at 4am just to finish the game :D
Cool, I only made it right after pharoah... good to finally see this. I'm 42
Played this a ton with my dad back in the day. Loved how it got harder if you beat it. Got pretty good at it. Put it down for like 10 years and when I moved out I hooked up the NES with my roomate and fired it up. I beat the whole game without dying. Roomate was like what the hell did I just see?

This game brings back so many memories! I still own it for the NES and play occasionally. I just bought the remastered addition and was slightly disappointed because the game isn’t the same as the original..it’s still a fun challenge regardless of the differences.
I'm guessing the remastered edition is the arcade version? Yes, it's quite a bit different from the NES game if that's the one you are referring to.
PEG yes it is the arcade version, I’ve been playing it for the last few days and so far life force and Gradius are my favorites.
@@dardo4748 I love both the console and arcade versions of both games, some of my favorites!
This game has to be one of the best theme songs.....
That brain for the 1st boss.i can remember going up to it.but it was a long time ago.😃😃😃
Used to love this game. never noticed the red blood cells at 11:50. how befitting
Que juegazo, por Dios que buen soundtrack, uno de los mejores junto a Ninja Turtles 3 Manhatan. Sobre todo el soundtrack de jefe final.
Memories! what a great game.
I miss this game still looking on the apps
Just get an emulator for your comp. There's a bunch of them out there then you can download the rom file. 🙂
Well I had to do the Contra code on this one AND I STILL had to continue. Lol I was a lot
better back then. Love the music, so freak'n awesome!
Me as a kid: my little mind blown.
Me as a boring adult: I wonder how long it took for the Easter island laser ring shooter heads to be built? That just seems expensive and impractical.

Impressive
Suddenly remember this game in my childhood because I've never beaten this game 😂 even for today's standard this is still a difficult game to beat i think
Awsome game! Awsome gameplay!!!
Any idea how can I get these games, missing childhood 😢 want to play again
Holy s#!t! Nice job. Never played this or Gradius back in the day. Wish I had.
It just hit me that the fighter ship is a damn VIRUS!
ENRICHING BUILDMONGER
What better to send to destroy an alien invading life form?
Many NES controllers where thrown at the TV stand because of this game 😂
Pretty intense for a first level!!
17:22 this always cracks me up for some reason in Konami games
Where I spent all my piggybanks saving in the 90's....slot machines in thr island.
Fun watch nut damn the lazer is OP
Ok, today’s games are awesome, but NES and especially Konami were the companies who made me like video games! This is definitely a classic! And I will never become a tired of games like this, Gradius, Castlevania and Punch Out. Was advanced simplicity their secret?
You just made this impossible game look simiple.
How is someone this good?
siempre me ha gustado el detalle del templo egipcio.
My childhood nightmare right here....never made it past the 2nd stage
Medo Stephen
Haha I did i'm an Aquarius
doesn't the stage 1 music sound like TMNT water level? so stressful lol
One of the stage in Ikaruga seems inspired from this 24:58
No wonder because Treasure is Konami ex-former
Innerspace the Game
You missed the 1up near the end of stage 1. It's near the bottom of the last regenerating wall.
Awesome game. Had this when I was 10 in 88?
Could never beat Stage 3 and Stage 5, those two stages gave me the most trouble. Weirdly enough, the bosses for each stages are so easy
takes me back to when i was 7
Very different from the arcade game, but Konami pretty much gave fans a completely new experience here.
Stage 1 Cell 1
Power Of Anger 0:04
Such a Konami game.
The sound effects from Castlevania and Contra. Whacked out looking boss designs similar to bosses from Contra, and the boss fight theme is basically reused as the underwater theme from the Dam level in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
How come I never found this 30 odd years ago?
How is the missiles crawling in the ceiling in side view mode? My missiles are always crawling on the floor.
how do you make the force totally consume the plane?
Good work!!!!
