Same here. So relaxing, right? Mash-mash-mash-aaaaaaaaand-klunk. I've found myself saying this out loud lately, doing home improvements. Makes me laugh :-) Thanks Arcus! You rock!
Totally agree. The way the graphics are made in this game should be taught in Art Schools!! They mastered pixel art and the result is that the game doesn't age and looks above the 8 bit technology where it was made.
This game and music brings me back, I remember finally beating it, I was probably around 14 or 15 years old, this one and faxanadu are 2 of my favorites, have you ever tried speed running faxanadu?
Over 20,000 attempts. It's amazing how some people have the patience and will to do these sorts of things. Good on ya for reaching a tough, tough goal.
Watched that Summoning Salt video, and as soon as it cut to you with the hat and stache I realized I stumbled on you running Batman at some point; had no idea you ran NG. Really glad to see you got the sub-10!
I was unable to go further the third stage back in my kid time, and you beated this game in 10 mins wow, this is actually one. Of the hardest games in NES.
Woot! Heck of a run there, Mr. Arcus! Might chop another second off if you can dodge that liitle jump blip early on there. Loved watching you improve over time to the level you are at now!
Some California raisins were walking down the street one day. /boohoo there's nothing to do. I wish haters stop pestering me so I can do my job, it's hard enough as it is./ One day, the raisins stumbled upon the genesis machine in someone's trash. /hey guys, we can use this machine to remove batmans superpowers. ZZAP!/ With his powers removed, they choose to take the fight to the caped crusader. ruclips.net/video/16kBY2dO-Gk/видео.htmlsi=ttDVfgZSa4lW7GT6 ruclips.net/video/UHD_53UqBeA/видео.htmlsi=mrXd0dQ4UhbvJDq3
![[Former WR] Batman: Arkham City Speedrun (NG+) in 15:16](/img/1.gif)
I didn’t fully appreciate this game as a kid. Being about 10 when it came out. The music, controls, art style.... it really is a great nes classic.
I don't know why, but watching you run this and Ninja Gaiden just makes me happy. GG!
Also the original Zelda
Same here. So relaxing, right? Mash-mash-mash-aaaaaaaaand-klunk. I've found myself saying this out loud lately, doing home improvements. Makes me laugh :-) Thanks Arcus! You rock!
@@harryhalfmoon I've even got people that aren't in to gaming anymore but remember what Arcus runs watching him. It's always a good bzzzt
The graphics were amazing at the time, makes many SNES games pale in comparison.
Totally agree. The way the graphics are made in this game should be taught in Art Schools!! They mastered pixel art and the result is that the game doesn't age and looks above the 8 bit technology where it was made.
You ever play Batman (NES) in the pale moonllight?
@@srujan00 underrated comment haha
This game and the Return of the Joker has one of the best graphics on the NES. It really shows what the system was capable of.
I don't know if I'd say that.
10:06 "I did it!"
Yes you did. It's nice that you often say we there when hitting PBs and such but it's all you.
One of my favorites NES games, an all time classic, played flawlessly. Amazing. Hats off to the man with the cowboy hat!
i don't know why i keep getting this stoic caballero's videos in my recommendations but i'm glad i do
This game and music brings me back, I remember finally beating it, I was probably around 14 or 15 years old, this one and faxanadu are 2 of my favorites, have you ever tried speed running faxanadu?
The music score of this and Journey To Silius are mindblowing!
Over 20,000 attempts. It's amazing how some people have the patience and will to do these sorts of things. Good on ya for reaching a tough, tough goal.
I really like how smooth and calm you are Arcus.
Always a pleasure watching your speedrun and playthroughs
I've never heard a more aggressive "klunk" come from Arcus before. Good job and keep it up my dude! Congrats!!
I played this game way too much when I was a kid. One of the best NES games I ever played.
I think that was the happiest I've ever seen you.
you should watch the run (zelda maybe?) where he PBs and starts hyperventilating with joy
Staggering how optimized this game is. Truly amazing.
This is a great game, love the run.
One dislike. I'm guessing it's from the Joker.
"Let's see some ammo drops.... yeeeeah."
Cook: How do you like your potatoes?
Arcus: Mash, mash, mash!
I could never fight both Firebug and the Joker the way you did it. Props!
Great job, Arcus! I know you've been working on this for some time now. Congrats on your work paying off!
Must respect these guys, who can beat this game in under 10min.
Bro. It took me all day to beat this game when I was a kid and that was after a LOT of playthroughs. And this guy beats the game in less than 10 min?
I am sure he spent days to get that good
I feel that a lot of these Batman assets could have been used to create another quality castlevania
DAMN !!! Have you mastered every NES Game?
The twin floating boxes, my favorite members of batman's rogue gallery.
Anyone watching this who's never played it? It's such a hard game! The cowboy just makes it look easy!!
I loved and hated this game as a kid. That climb part with the gears was the worst. He makes it look so easy.
GG, does Batman have to crouch Everytime he jumps? Or is that a speedrun thing?
Greatest moo I've ever heard! (and I've lived near cows) Great job on the grind, you deserved a the huge PB.
Congrats on getting under 10 minutes! This game is pretty hard for normies like me. Have you ever done or thought about speedrunning Battletoads?
I couldn't beat this game to save my life as a kid and now people run it in less time than it takes to cook a pizza.
Great job, my man! So enjoyable to watch you sma-sma-smash this game.
Watched that Summoning Salt video, and as soon as it cut to you with the hat and stache I realized I stumbled on you running Batman at some point; had no idea you ran NG. Really glad to see you got the sub-10!
I was unable to go further the third stage back in my kid time, and you beated this game in 10 mins wow, this is actually one. Of the hardest games in NES.
Well done...also, Sunsoft did such a masterpiece with this game. Probably was well founded financially for a Hollywood level product.
I really want you to get wr on this one. Love watching you play it
Outstanding work. A second big grind and over 20k attempts, but ya got it. Congrats!
Woot! Heck of a run there, Mr. Arcus! Might chop another second off if you can dodge that liitle jump blip early on there. Loved watching you improve over time to the level you are at now!
Argus is the Bob Ross of speedrunning with the happy little punch punches.
Damn your a beast i want more games 😋
You’re a beast Arcus, for shizzle.
SMASH SMASH SMASH AND..... CLUNK!
The satisfaction at the end. Well done lad
Some California raisins were walking down the street one day.
/boohoo there's nothing to do. I wish haters stop pestering me so I can do my job, it's hard enough as it is./

/hey guys, we can use this machine to remove batmans superpowers. ZZAP!/
With his powers removed, they choose to take the fight to the caped crusader.

I love seeing games like this, that I really struggled with, get completely manhandled with ease. It's like a form of vicarious vengeance.
I always thought this was a weird game. Joker is 7 feet tall and shoot lightning. He hired rejects from ninja Gaiden also.
Man, when you realized you were on a sub 10 pace right before the last boss you could hear your pulse quicken. Congrats man!
My fav Nes game
Don't u think the setting is perfect for Batman. Especially the first stage... the design and colour
Congratz on the sub 10 :-) the speedrun of this game is brutal and you are one of the few guys who can pull sub 10 :)
Have my 13yo son playing this, he's a master at COD Fortnite etc but NES Batman kicks his ass!
Funny how Joker is called one of the toughest bosses ever and he's just annihlated here with punches lmao.
I thought I was good at this game until I watched this. But, I haven't played 20,000 times lol.
Faster he man, faster cat and faster media frame rate... I honestly thought you were legit...
Pah! You sir, are not even close to my PB...
Im around 94min and 32 sec...
This was the first game I played when I was 5 or 6 years old 💓 this game will be always in my heart
The depth of the gameplay at that time, plus the music, made it a classic. And...... clunk.
20.000 attempts.. holy shit man!
i did about the same amount on that son of a bitch Dracula, in Castlevania.
How do you kill the first boss so easy with batarangs you hit him like three times.can you do a vid on technique of the runs please
Juega el ninja gaiden de pc engine
Who is holding the world record for this?
Edit: i didnt notice. Its shown in bottom left corner.
I used to get pumped up as a kid wanting to play batman but I would just get my ass whooped my experience was more like avgn
Nostalgia is a cheap whore, to whom you can always return; but damn this brings me back!
Congrats on sub 10,really impressive!
Giddy up!
annnnnnnnd clunk.
Am I the only one getting anxiety that the game kind of like pauses when you jump? lol
Bro that was insane. I couldn’t do that if my life depended on it
Love your Speedruns dude! Are you from Texas?
Edit: Ah I‘ve seen your Twitch Page. Arizona 😃
GG Arcus.Getting close to wr!
Childhood ruined.
Are you sou nice and i looking for the viedios you are great man and a good gamer
batman, batman, batman
punch punch, punch punch, punch punch
bat batman
How do you not take damage when fighting The Joker?
The way you beat every single of the bosses. Just wow! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Anybody notice the frame rate is a little fast?
you are playing game using hack . its not genuine gameplay
Arcus, please have my children. lol
Awesome run. Truly enjoyable to watch a master at work. Also just a note, 10 people dislike this.
My nickname on the screen in "Recent Donation" column. "Mama, I'm on TV". Weird.
Could never beat the game until they made game genie
On my days off I watch ARCUS master even some of the more shittier nes games. Keep at it my man 😁😁 love this shit
This soundtrack sounds like it was produced by the same producers of TMNT soundtrack.
this game.....had it as a kid and I dont think I could ever get past level 3 and was lucky if I ever got that far.
هههههههههههههههههه شف شنبه كيف
My favourite NES game
This is incredible. Amazing run.
🤠 aaaannnnddd... clunk. Sub 10
i will refer to Arcus as Mr Clunkman from now on. "Clunk" must be his Favorite word
Im gona miss Batman now... GG, very deserved!!!
Very nice... I love that your sum of best is equal to the WR. It is possible
If I'm not mistaken, the WR actually can be beaten by around 4 seconds. I think it shows that on Endy's sum of best
congratulations on the sub 10 Arcus! What's the next grind gonna be sir? :)
GG my friend. Now you can easily go for the wr. Also you look a little bit tired, get some sleep.
Nice! And i Love your cat!!
Great run. You’re a legend.
Зверюга :)
i love nappin to your videos!
6:16 Nice ost. Would fit well in a Megaman boss battle.
Congrats on sub 10
Congrats for the PB! loved the victory moo! I am BD on twitch. 🤗

Yo, sub-10 in Batman. Congrats man!
