When I watched Ryan Play through those parts I have to say I was impressed. So glad these guys are stil making videos after all these years. I really enjoy them.
Vampires don't have assholes : true or false? The answer is false. Vampires do in fact have assholes, as it was one of the major plot lines in Castlevania II: Simon's Quest, that you had to collect all five of Dracula's body parts. There was Dracula's Rib, Dracula's Heart, Dracula's Eyeball, Dracula's Nail and finally, Dracula's Ring. Yeah...Dracula's Ring is a body part, you might ask? What else could it be, other than his asshole? It seems like that's the only body part that could actually fit around your finger.
My uncle was in the navy and he went to like South Korea or Japan or something . He brought me back a game boy game with like 50 different games on it. This was one of them.
I like the part where Mike makes a joke about Dracula's castle being full of pencils, obviously referring to the pencil shaped spikes at the bottom and top of the room, and Ryan goes "Oh, the swords?" and then whoever edited it (probably Mike) puts pencils over the swords.
Konami should do a lot of things but they're run by morons right now. I'd slap a baby to get a new Contra game. [comment exaggeration provided by the Internet]
I didn't know people were cold on this game. I always liked it. It was a proper platform game when most other handheld games were puzzle games or one-screen games.
I always think some of Ryan's jokes are mad funny but i feel like Mike never wants to give him the satisfaction of laughing at his jokes for some reason lol, I feel likes he's afraid of getting outshined. maybe it's just me but i think its the weirdest dynamic
Geeze I wish Konami would pull there heads out of there arse, start looking after there programmers and start making kick arse games again. The castlevania series is brilliant and holds such a special place in so many peoples hearts! Same as metal gear!
hopefully they do do some downloadable games and not just phone stuff. And bring their old game franchises back up. IF they do ok maybe they cna eventually do something major. Seems like their throwing in the towl. I understand big budget games ...are big budget and expensive and maybe not always worth it. There's other avenues to try. Just hope it's not all phones and gambling machines
Sure the game is slow, but the screen tearing has the shitty emulation on the Retron 5 to blame. Should play this on either the Game Boy Played or Super Game Boy instead.
videogameobsession I understand playing on an emulator and not everyone wants a pure authentic experience but I can't stand when a game glitches due to the emulator and ppl blame the game
If PS2 is old to you, then youre young to me :) But yeah, the older Castlevania's had similar gameplay, although Castlevania II on NES was different because of its RPG element. I like Castlevania II on Game Boy the most of the old generation Castlevania's.
What I really liked about this game was the music. It was very atmospheric. I have a request: One of my favorite gameboy games that is kind of not well known was Skate or Die. It's not like the NES title but a side scrolling jump n run and imo a pretty good one. You guys should play that sometime.
So many hours of my childhood were wasted on this very broken game. I thought I had repressed it. Moved past it. But here I find it in my sub box come to haunt me once again.
There is like one episode every few months so calm your ass down. It's not one shitty youtuber that goes with few episodes every day to entertain his kid viewers.
Belmont's Revenge is really good, music in both games is stellar. Would love to see you guys do more Gameboy releases of classic NES franchises. You guys made this game look easy.
Yeah totally agree guys. This game isn't bad at all. As one of the ONLY early platformers for the Game Boy, it's got a decent soundtrack, it's a good challenge, and it doesn't feel generic. Was awesome to be able to play portable CV in 1989. The Wii version feels very generic and is too easy.
Ryan is going to have a nightmare where he's back in high school climbing ropes and then all of a sudden spikes show up. He's climbing and climbing as the spikes keep coming up until he reaches the ceiling and it's covered in spikes. Then the walls close in with spikes. Then he wakes up and Mike throws a rope at him. Ryan runs and hides.
Oh man. . .I own this game still on my classic game boy and I HATE that 3rd stage. I still remember throwing sooooooooooo much time at that stage and losing. So hats off to Ryan for beating that stage. It can go to hell in my view. :I
ryan pretty much nailed the whole episode, good jog guys! cheers from Greece! P.S. : Please gather the whole Cinemassacre team and play "War Of The Monsters" on PS2 (it's also available as a PS3 downloadable title). I'm sure you'll have a blast!
9B is the best pencil, because one can achieve the darkest value as well as the lightest value that a #2 or any other pencil can produce. It all depends on pressure.
Not only do Castlevania: The Adventure and Castlevania II: Belmont's Revenge have (limited) preset Super Game Boy (2) color palettes, but they also got re-released on the Game Boy Color in full color in Konami GB Collection (Vol. 1 and Vol. 3, respectively).
I think this game had to be this slow because the early GameBoy's had awful ghosting. The faster you went, the more blurry it got. Of course, you don't see that on the Super GameBoy for SNES.
I had my freaking Gameboy stolen from me in high school and this was the game that was in it. I eventually got another Gameboy, so then I had 2 Tetris carts, and I never played this game again. Watching this brings back memories.
I may be in the minority here but I fucking LOVE this game. As you said it is very sluggish but the bosses and levels are well designed and like all Castlevania games it has amazing music. Also Ryan fucking killed that last stage! That one was a bit tough for me.
This game isn't half bad for a launch window game. Had decent music. I actually owned this game and enjoyed it. Not the best launch window game but not total garbage either.
I finally played through this game, on my 3DS, last year, only to learn I wasn't finished. After the end credits, I started stage 5. It was stage 1 all over. Again. Reminds me a bit of Ghosts n Goblins. News flash: Stage 7 is the spike stage, again.
I used to bloody hate this game for being soo slow, but recently it's grown on me. The second one is way better of course, but nowadays I enjoy this one too.
ryan is making this look easy. this game is hard to control because its so slow and once you lose the fireball its hard to recover. i cant get very far in this one.
I liked that they weren't too hard on this. It's not a good game, and it relies on beginner's traps in a way no other Castlevania title does, but it's playable and its shortcomings are understandable given the early days of the Gameboy. Wouldn't recommend it to most, but those looking for more classic Castlevania who can appreciate games in context of their era should check it out.
Really, NO comment on the sound guy called Fukutake? I bet they were in the studio like, "hey, did you take LSD?" "*sigh* nooo man, I didn't.." "then *giggles* what the Fukutake man?"
I'm surprised Mike played "I Want to Be the Guy". This game is one of the hardest games I've played since that one, though obviously nowhere on that game's level. In retrospect, "I Want to Be The Guy" might be one of the games that got me more interested in playing the more traditionally difficult NES side-scrollers.
I fucking love this game.. beat it after like a week of tries.. and got really into and and had a ton of fun. NICE job on stage 3.... and yeah looks like your game had some sort of glitch... normally you see a bat flying away
Ryan must be great at this game. That rising autoscroller stage is a killer.
justsignmeup911 That level looked absurd, but yeah Ryan killed it without much trouble. Thanks for watching -Mike
When I watched Ryan Play through those parts I have to say I was impressed. So glad these guys are stil making videos after all these years. I really enjoy them.
It's not as bad as it looks imo, you just have to concentrate.
Yeah, I had this way back in the day and I only got past stage 3 once or twice. Never beat it.
And from this day on, everyone liked Ryan.
Vampires don't have assholes : true or false?
The answer is false. Vampires do in fact have assholes, as it was one of the major plot lines in Castlevania II: Simon's Quest, that you had to collect all five of Dracula's body parts. There was Dracula's Rib, Dracula's Heart, Dracula's Eyeball, Dracula's Nail and finally, Dracula's Ring. Yeah...Dracula's Ring is a body part, you might ask? What else could it be, other than his asshole? It seems like that's the only body part that could actually fit around your finger.
I beat this game ONCE. After that I had nothing left to prove.
Anyone who beats this game deserves a reward. It's brutal.
Three decades of questionable life choices. I hear you on that Ryan.
LMAO!!!!!!
SAME
I thought Fatty Arbuckle was dead! not still alive and playing video games
Shishi lol SAME!
Shishi Yeah, I have a few questions about my own life.
I remember struggling SO hard with this game as a kid. I haven't played it again since.
My uncle was in the navy and he went to like South Korea or Japan or something . He brought me back a game boy game with like 50 different games on it. This was one of them.
He probably thought: "We should I be the only family member with PTSD?"
I like the part where Mike makes a joke about Dracula's castle being full of pencils, obviously referring to the pencil shaped spikes at the bottom and top of the room, and Ryan goes "Oh, the swords?" and then whoever edited it (probably Mike) puts pencils over the swords.
This game is a painful slog.
Those falling platforms are a pain.
They should make another Castlevania like they're doing with Super Bomberman R for Nintendo Switch.
Intimidation they're too busy making pachinko machines.
that is a third-party game so..
Yea, it's practically a miracle that a new bomberman title is even coming out.
Konami should do a lot of things but they're run by morons right now. I'd slap a baby to get a new Contra game. [comment exaggeration provided by the Internet]
Malachi Megiddo You can try Hard Corps: Uprising on 360 or PS3
I didn't know people were cold on this game. I always liked it. It was a proper platform game when most other handheld games were puzzle games or one-screen games.
Yepp, same here.
The music kicks ass. Wish I could say the same thing about the game.
check out the music for belmont's revenge
I always think some of Ryan's jokes are mad funny but i feel like Mike never wants to give him the satisfaction of laughing at his jokes for some reason lol, I feel likes he's afraid of getting outshined. maybe it's just me but i think its the weirdest dynamic
Big Dip The Third i agree. their dynamic is odd. Mike never stays on topic with Ryan's conversation.
Mike changes the subject on Ryan alot
Geeze I wish Konami would pull there heads out of there arse, start looking after there programmers and start making kick arse games again. The castlevania series is brilliant and holds such a special place in so many peoples hearts! Same as metal gear!
Metalgear is just sad nowdays however ^^, MG1 on ps1, then MG 2 was cool thought
hopefully they do do some downloadable games and not just phone stuff. And bring their old game franchises back up. IF they do ok maybe they cna eventually do something major. Seems like their throwing in the towl. I understand big budget games ...are big budget and expensive and maybe not always worth it. There's other avenues to try. Just hope it's not all phones and gambling machines
Sure the game is slow, but the screen tearing has the shitty emulation on the Retron 5 to blame. Should play this on either the Game Boy Played or Super Game Boy instead.
The emulation is why they didn't actually see the bat fly up from the castle's remains at the end, too. Gameboy Player would show that.
you sure you played this version on your hacked Wii? cause this version of the game is known for the bad scrolling
videogameobsession I understand playing on an emulator and not everyone wants a pure authentic experience but I can't stand when a game glitches due to the emulator and ppl blame the game
Obscure Media
the thing is, this game was known for the bad scrolling, it also had it when played on original hardware
raafmaat My bad, been years since I had played on a GB
This game is incredibly hard but one of my favorites as a kid, especially that rocking soundtrack, well at least for a gameboy game anyway.
Agreed
The rising spikes section looks like a big pack of crayons...
The scrolling is so jerky is starts to look like parallax
I was lucky enough to Play Castlevania II on that mega old NES system a couple years ago. That seems pretty similar to this game actually.
Jeff Bays PS2 is old to me.
lol I just thought it was a funny comment, how we relate oldness to our own age,
If PS2 is old to you, then youre young to me :)
But yeah, the older Castlevania's had similar gameplay, although Castlevania II on NES was different because of its RPG element.
I like Castlevania II on Game Boy the most of the old generation Castlevania's.
DethstruXioN ™ I do remember having a Gameboy SP too.
dude she's like 12 asking nudes is not cool
Now there is a movie title. "Vampires have no assholes."
that game's scrolling is as smooth as butter spiked with nails.
You get up to 4 lives in Double Dragon III on the NES in single player... in multiplayer you get up to 3 lives.
What I really liked about this game was the music. It was very atmospheric.
I have a request: One of my favorite gameboy games that is kind of not well known was Skate or Die. It's not like the NES title but a side scrolling jump n run and imo a pretty good one. You guys should play that sometime.
I remember playing this on my Game Boy back in the day. It was so tedious.
"They're not mummies, they're T1000s!" That was so nerdy that it made me proud. Thanks for the laugh. =D
So many hours of my childhood were wasted on this very broken game. I thought I had repressed it. Moved past it. But here I find it in my sub box come to haunt me once again.
Don't forget that you guys didn't even fight the last form of dracula on rebirth.
This game moves so slowly I started to travel back in time.
Where is the fucking neeerd?
Danny Cobos He's busy Danny Boy.
Fuck the nerd, he's just a NEEEERRD!
***** Yes.
Yer new here aren't you? :B
There is like one episode every few months so calm your ass down. It's not one shitty youtuber that goes with few episodes every day to entertain his kid viewers.
when I was REALLY young I got my gameboy. This was the game I was most excited about. Loved it!
"The spikes are always coming." You might as well be talking about life, man, and not just this game.
The third level sure does love to get its point across.
Despite the challenges and low quality Game Boy graphics. This was a fun one to watch. I'd be down to watch more Game Boy play throughs
Belmont's Revenge is really good, music in both games is stellar. Would love to see you guys do more Gameboy releases of classic NES franchises. You guys made this game look easy.
"The spikes are always coming" is a great tag line.
I remember having this game. Bought it just because I loved the cover. :D
9:00 I was so hoping he'd choose left. I did, and the game wound up sending me backwards across the eyeball bridge into a dead end. Dang loops.
Yeah, Ryan is sooo not climbing the rope in gym class!! probably had a note from his mum saying please excuse Ryan he's not very well today!!
Yeah totally agree guys. This game isn't bad at all. As one of the ONLY early platformers for the Game Boy, it's got a decent soundtrack, it's a good challenge, and it doesn't feel generic. Was awesome to be able to play portable CV in 1989. The Wii version feels very generic and is too easy.
Level one music is some of the best castlevania music. Any game. Period
The second Castlevania on GB is pretty great. Much faster.
Shit i grew up playing this on my pocket gameplay in the 90s. this game would kick my 5yo old all the time lol
Last stages resumes like "Dracula have a death drawing studio with b2 pencils and crayons to draw hexagrams on the walls"
My childhood friend had this game, and we liked it. I will buy this to my Gameboy collection, or all of these Gameboy Castlevanias.
Love this game... had it back in the day... still play it today!
Haha that bit on vampires don't have ass holes because they are so old that it just closes up. Love it
I remember trying this on Konami Classics vol.1 for GBC. Thought there was something wrong with the conversion but I guess not lol.
In 89 i was just not able to afford a gameboy it was just a dream for me , i enjoyed seeing the commercials though
Do _Castlevania: Legends_
Sonia deserves some love.
Finally you guys did this! I waited this ever since Avgn Castlevania episodes started!
I got that game when I was a kid and it wasn't that slow. You should play it on the Super GameBoy and it will be better. Nice game!
I love the game, but I can agree with that for sure.
Ryan is going to have a nightmare where he's back in high school climbing ropes and then all of a sudden spikes show up. He's climbing and climbing as the spikes keep coming up until he reaches the ceiling and it's covered in spikes. Then the walls close in with spikes. Then he wakes up and Mike throws a rope at him. Ryan runs and hides.
Oh man. . .I own this game still on my classic game boy and I HATE that 3rd stage. I still remember throwing sooooooooooo much time at that stage and losing. So hats off to Ryan for beating that stage. It can go to hell in my view. :I
4:42 "Leave a comment, let us know" LOL
How baked was Ryan when they did this video?
one of my favorite Castlevania games of all time
Rope climbing! ROPE CLIMBING, JOEL!
Belmont's Revenge is way better and Castlevania Legends isn't bad either. this one was a bit too stiff for my tastes.
Belmont's Revenge is better, but still not very good.
ryan pretty much nailed the whole episode, good jog guys! cheers from Greece!
P.S. : Please gather the whole Cinemassacre team and play "War Of The Monsters" on PS2 (it's also available as a PS3 downloadable title). I'm sure you'll have a blast!
I have this on the 3DS. Never made it past the second map lol
9B is the best pencil, because one can achieve the darkest value as well as the lightest value that a #2 or any other pencil can produce. It all depends on pressure.
At 21:28 It Looks Like Belmont Is Taking A Whiz While Watching The Castle Get Wrecked! Best Castlevania Ending Ever!
Also an honorable mention, this game was in color and part of Konami GB Classics vol. 1 for the GBC. Feels slightly faster than this original version.
In before: Vampires DO have assholes.
Not only do Castlevania: The Adventure and Castlevania II: Belmont's Revenge have (limited) preset Super Game Boy (2) color palettes, but they also got re-released on the Game Boy Color in full color in Konami GB Collection (Vol. 1 and Vol. 3, respectively).
Love this game! The Wii game was nothing like this. It was its own thing. No idea why they even tried to call it The Castlevania Adventure Rebirth.
Mikes waynes world quote went right over Ryan's head
Music kicks ass in this game. So impressive what the developers did with so little.
There are four Castlevania games on the Game Boy. There's this game, its sequel Belmont's Revenge, Castlevania Legends, and Kid Dracula.
i was nine when this game was out thanks guys for showing this classic game
I think this game had to be this slow because the early GameBoy's had awful ghosting. The faster you went, the more blurry it got. Of course, you don't see that on the Super GameBoy for SNES.
I had my freaking Gameboy stolen from me in high school and this was the game that was in it. I eventually got another Gameboy, so then I had 2 Tetris carts, and I never played this game again. Watching this brings back memories.
Chin is like the best character in Double Dragon 3. His four punches is so powerful enemies die in one take down.
You know, I didn't realise Michael Dorn voiced 'I am weasel'..Mind blown! >.=.
5:20 that's not how you beat this boss , you have to "touch him real quick'n go"
I may be in the minority here but I fucking LOVE this game.
As you said it is very sluggish but the bosses and levels are well designed and like all Castlevania games it has amazing music. Also Ryan fucking killed that last stage! That one was a bit tough for me.
"Vampires don't have assholes" I've been reading Dracula and that... Might as well be true actually.
This is a really good game despite some peoples complaints. The soundtrack is awesome too. Glad to see you guys get to it. :D
This game isn't half bad for a launch window game. Had decent music. I actually owned this game and enjoyed it. Not the best launch window game but not total garbage either.
At least in this game you get the full-health orb BEFORE the boss fight not after.
I remember this game! I never could beat it cuz my battery on my gameboy always died on the far levels! Big ups guys!
I finally played through this game, on my 3DS, last year, only to learn I wasn't finished. After the end credits, I started stage 5. It was stage 1 all over. Again. Reminds me a bit of Ghosts n Goblins. News flash: Stage 7 is the spike stage, again.
I used to bloody hate this game for being soo slow, but recently it's grown on me. The second one is way better of course, but nowadays I enjoy this one too.
ryan is making this look easy. this game is hard to control because its so slow and once you lose the fireball its hard to recover. i cant get very far in this one.
i'm guessing if ryan was in kindergarten when this came out he was born in like '84?
acriser15 1983
what about mike?
acriser15 1978.
wow, didn't realize he's that old! almost 39
acriser15 I'm kidding. he's like 31 or something.
The dodo bird gags are excellent!!!
I liked that they weren't too hard on this. It's not a good game, and it relies on beginner's traps in a way no other Castlevania title does, but it's playable and its shortcomings are understandable given the early days of the Gameboy. Wouldn't recommend it to most, but those looking for more classic Castlevania who can appreciate games in context of their era should check it out.
3:17
I had to pause to read about the Dodo bird. Haha.
Ryan is such a man-child. He is like Patrick and Mike is Spongebob.
I always loved the Swiss cheese frog level.
Mike quoting Bram Stoker's Dracula like a boss
Really, NO comment on the sound guy called Fukutake? I bet they were in the studio like,
"hey, did you take LSD?"
"*sigh* nooo man, I didn't.."
"then *giggles* what the Fukutake man?"
My headcanon regarding Christopher's slow pace is that he's lumping due to injury sequels on his leg
Thumbnail looked like the new game arms running on the gameboy. xd
I'm surprised Mike played "I Want to Be the Guy". This game is one of the hardest games I've played since that one, though obviously nowhere on that game's level. In retrospect, "I Want to Be The Guy" might be one of the games that got me more interested in playing the more traditionally difficult NES side-scrollers.
at 21:25 Simon looks like he's playing Nintendo and just beat it.
I can't believe you guys actually beat the fucking thing.
I got stuck at the second level and lost my patience
I fucking love this game.. beat it after like a week of tries.. and got really into and and had a ton of fun. NICE job on stage 3.... and yeah looks like your game had some sort of glitch... normally you see a bat flying away
I love the Game Boy esthetic.
Everyone that watches cinemassacre should make a campaign/petition to nintendo for a new 2d metroid game.
