I know how you feel about basketball. I played the game when I was a kid but when it came to recreational basketball,.. well I'll put it this way, I score a point for the wrong team.
I was really looking forward to this one, since VT has some weird/interesting games. Glad to hear you like Golgo 13, I was stunned when I first played that one
I listened to your podcast yesterday cos you brought John Riggs on it, been subscribed to you for years but never listened to your podcast before cos I'm not much of a podcast guy. So thanks to all 3 of you for making that. It was really entertaining.
I admittedly was not good at golgo 13 when I had it growing up but that didn't stop me from liking it for some reason. I was fascinated and intrueged by the story and music. Your channel is awesome 👌
Golgo 13 was always a favorite of mine as a kid. Love the music! As a kid we always giggled when you met cherry grace in the hotel and the curtains close... and your life goes full
In before "Do this with SNES and Genesis" (which is coming, I promise) and "Crop your video!!!" The good news is I know how to crop them now! The bad news is I still have one more video like this that's already made (SNK next week)
Thank you Mr. Riggs you have been helping me get through this pandemic. Love your videos. The NES ranked brings back so many good memories. We appreciate you.
Yeah, it gets points for somehow slipping by Nintendo's censors to include a lot of the seriousness and non-family friendly themes of Golgo 13's source material. In the Japanese version, you actually see the woman's breasts, which I guess was a step TOO far for NoA lol.
@@THENAMEISQUICKMAN It was still edited on our side. the Famicom version she gets naked (underwear but no bra) before it cuts to the lights off through the window scene.
One small thing I will add for Terra Cresta. You have the ability to choose what ships would join you progressed. You could edit it from the menu screen and it was a lot of fun.
It's that time again. My pre-watch ranking is for Clash At Demonhead. And I rank it an "S". 1. It's one of my top 10 favorite NES games of all time. Still play it. 2. I can't think of any other VIC TOKAI games.
@@JohnDoe-yf9wk Oh of course. Pretty much agree with John here. We both Iiked it. And there have been several where he has given games an F and I gave it an S and vice versa.
@@solusemsu7957 I mean there's always a few games that are very divisive where some people either love them or hate them and there isn't much in between. But I think most of the time what one person likes most people will it's just a matter of how much they like it also nostalgia.
This series of videos is a great reminder of the games so many of us rented back in the 80's and 90's. Looking forward to the Data East and Taito videos!
Hard disagree on Conflict. My friends and I played it against each other all the time. Back then it was great but admittedly hasn't aged well. Mainly because Americans finally got the Wars series.
After Advance Wars its hard for me to got back to old NES strategy games. I've always wanted to like Conflict and Desert Commander but can never get sucked in.
Wonderful video, John! Loved it especially considering that you hardly hear about ANY of these games in most NES-related conversations. I completely agree with you on both Bump 'n Jump and Kid Kool as those were two games that were close to my heart as well growing up (especially Bump 'n Jump...I still remember renting that one from the local Marsh supermarket and getting up super early on a Saturday morning to play it). Kid Kool does have some really rough gameplay mechanics but I never felt that it was as awful as most people think. I agree with you on the Golgo 13 games too! They are both very underrated and the second game was probably my favorite of the two. It's worth beating for sure! I just picked up The Krion Conquest recently too! Played it to death 15-20 years ago and I look forward to getting back into it! :)
Clash at Demonhead is an underrated gem. Spent one night with an old friend beating it (with game genie of course, that crap is hard lol). Then when the rival band was named after it in Scott Pilgrim, I was proud to be the only person in my college who got the reference.
Krion Conquest got stripped down for the US market, the Famicom version Magical Doropie has a continue option and several anime quality cut scenes, these were all cut from the US except the into that was chopped up. Sad we got such a chopped up version of a really decent game.
I loved the Golgo 13 games and Clash at Demonhead. I have a lot of great memories playing those games. Can't wait for the SNK video keep up the good work.
John keep it up my guy, love your channel and reviews, especially the nes ranking vids! I'm just like you man, love new games but my real love is for everything retro, snes, genesis, and especially nes! Your style is refreshing!
You mentioned DeCap Attack. That was one of my favorite platformers! Krion conquest, the 2 golgo games, kid kool and clash at demonhead i forgot how many classics were made in the nes era!
Bump 'n' Jump was one of the first games I got for NES, a lot of nostalgia for it. No one I knew had Clash at Demonhead back in the day and I first played it only a few years ago. It's a great game.
Great reviews, thanks for the Request!! I was just crushing golgo 13 last week, it has a great ending. Going to pick up the mafat conspiracy this weekend.
All band names in the Scott Pilgrim series are video game references. Sex Bob-omb, Kid Chameleon, Sonic & Knuckles, The Clash at Demonhead, Crash and the Boys, Shattterband, etc. The series is littered with game references in general.
Psycho Fox and Kid Kool actually have the exact same level design, too. Clash at Demon Head is great; sank countless hours into it back in the day. ProTip: If you rescue the hermit, you can get a teleport ability, which I think marks the numbers of any route you've entered on the map when you're using it.
The only game on this series that I played is Conflict. I LOVE this game. It became my homework game. I set my battles for the computer to fight for me, since I learned from watching the computer play. I put my units where I need them to go, then while the enemy moves, I do my homework. When they are finished moving, I repeat what I did. When the computer attacks, my troops already know what to do, so I continue with my homework. When I first played this, it was a rental with no instructions. I played all night with my bro as we went through it and through it. That very night I had a dream that I was a pilot of a fighter jet. My co-pilot was scared as an enemy fighter was keeping up with us. As my co-pilot started to panic, he made me nervous. So nervous in fact that I woke up in the middle of the night with a nervous stomach that I had to run to the bathroom to puke. No joke, this truly happened. Lol. First game to come into my dream and scare the crap out of me. Lol. I then bought the game direct from the owner of the video store for $10. I still have it to this day.
I absolutely LOVE this series! Please do this for genesis/Master system, snes and maybe even neo geo and turbo graphics 16 if you have experience with those systems!
@@JohnRiggs Will you hold those other systems to the same policy and only cover the US games? If you don't, you're not gonna have much to review on Master system. If you do, you're not really being fair to Nintendo.
That Clash Of Demons game I actually got to play that game for 30 mins. 2 weeks ago and for just being introduced to it after all this time, I really gotta say i like it
your page has helped me discover so many games.. the few basketball games i got to try as a child were awful.. hard to control and shoot.. but youve shown me so many.. i thought a good basketball didnt exist until nba jam haha
Finally! I've been patient (and then again not, lol). It definitely looks like this series will run well into 2021 with the company list remaining. Nice video/review as always.
Oh yeah Clash at Demonhead! I’ve never been able to beat it either, but it’s really unique and I love it. Still have my copy from back when it came out!
I always called it Top Secret Episode cause, you know, the giant text across the box and cartridge. I was and still am completely unaware of the universe of Golgo 13 and didn't even know there was a sequel til it was mentioned in this video. What I do remember was a hell of a lot of talking in a story I probably didn't understand too well as a kid and a hell of a lot of map drawing to figure out the mazes before I finally beat that game.
Man- I loved Terra Cresta back in the day! Of course I did have access to the arcade game at a local mini mart, and was beyond thrilled to see an NES version. Def. an underrated shooter in my opinion-. I'd probably put it up as a B and not a C honestly. it was catchy, difficult, and better than some shooters in it's 'class' in my opinion... maybe a bigger undertaking, but what about eventually ranking genres of games against each other same as you are now? (would be interesting to see rankings of other similar shooters to terra cresta...). great channel.. glad I stumbled across it!
I remember getting Top Secret Mission because it was in the bargain bin for my birthday. I was surprised I beat it because I was super young and didn’t realize the adult themes. Definitely a great game
Lots of good NES memories for me from these Vic Tokai games like: Clash; Kool & Krion Conquest. Wish I could've played the super sweet Golgo multi-genre secret-agent mashups. Never heard of Conflict though, and I'm quite glad I haven't.
Well with regards to the nes library, it's official. i never had the opportunity to play a vic tokai game for the nes but it's nice to see the all the games that company has released for the nes.
Golgo 13 is one of my favorites on the console. I think B is the right rating. It's definitely very clunky and not for everyone. But it has so much personality, and a great variety of gameplay types. None of them on their own is worth much, but having them all together is pretty awesome. My favorite part is the 1st person maze. Thr manual actually has all of the maps drawn out, but I got it second hand and sonI would draw the maps myself, and that's a big reason I really enjoyed it. Same with the original Metroid, the navigational challenge of drawing the maps by hand and/or slowly learning them as you explore is really the most important aspect of the game.
@@Rountree1985 TTA doesn't feel nearly as similar to Mario 3 as TKC does to Megaman. The physics aren't even the same as Mario, nor do the graphics closely resemble it.
You can't copyright a game concept. Think about how many baseball, basketball, football or hockey games there are. Anyone can create their own baseball game or side scroller game, even if it has the same feel as another game. But you CAN copyright the code and art it self so you can't just take someone's game, change a few sprites and sell it as something different or you can't use Mario or Mega man characters in your game regardless if you drew them your self or have them doing something completely different.
Glad to see the Vic Tokai video! It was on my radar, and can't believe I suggested it when you were already in the process of making it. I guess great minds think alike! There's still so much more to do; and I'm sure I can't suggest anything that you aren't already thinking of.....or can I? How about American Video Entertainment? I'm sure I don't need to tell you about them, but I will anyway. They released a handful of unlicensed, budget priced NES games back in the early 90's. I had a couple of them and they were total garbage lol. Id really like to see you review them.
When I was a kid (I was like 6 ) I remember my aunt bought "The Krion Conquest" to my female cousin because they saw there was some sort of princess on the box of the game so they assumed it was a game for girls. Of course the game is brutally difficult and my cousin couldn't pass further than a couple of screens, so they bought her "The Little Mermaid" instead and they just gave me this game, my aunt was like "here. you can have this game". I loved the game but to be honest I never made it further than Stage 2
Were Terra Cresta and Bump n Jump originally arcade games as they look so familiar and I can't think what I would have played them on as I never knew they were on the NES
Couldn't agree more with Clash at Demonhead. I always felt it was kinda similar to the Monster Land/World series on the Master System and Genesis. It's a very underrated game, and a ton of fun if you can forgive it for some of the quality-of-life issues it has.

I agree. It was the best hexagonal strategy game up to this point on 8 Bit in America.

Really enjoy these ranking videos can’t wait to see if you continue onto other systems like SNES, master system or the genesis.
New to this channel, I feel right at home, find myself agreeing with you on almost all things. Love from the UK ❤️
I absolutely love these rankings
These are great. You're awesome Mr. John Riggs.
Bump N’ Jump was my jam as a kid! Keep up the good work, John. 👍
Seems like of like a Spy Hunter rip off, but with some differences (mostly the jumping).
@@TheRmm1976 it’s similar to Spy Hunter as far as the overhead view goes, but Bump N Jump is its own game
I remember this game on the Colecovision. Quite fun for its time.
Yep, Bump n Jump was a very solid game, A or B at worst.
Yep gotta love the Golgo games for their ambition. Groundbreaking stuff.
....
So SNK is coming next week...Crystalis has to get an S.
SNK has a number of S-Rank worthy games.
👀
@@ostiariusalpha 👍 Iron Tank!!
Almost agree, an A at the very least
Love this ranking vids for nes per company, it reminds me of games I have not seen or thought about in 30+ years at times.
Conflict was one of my favorite strategy game loved it btw super conflict is a 'F' thanks for making me relive my childhood with all you ranking
Krion Conquest got stripped down for the US market, the Famicom version Magical Doropie has a continue option and several anime quality cut scenes, these were all cut from the US except the into that was chopped up.
Sad we got such a chopped up version of a really decent game.
That's for damn sure!
Let's rank Taxan! I always liked Conflict, my older brother and I would get so caught up in battling eachother we'd forget to fight in real life

Nice! I never beat it, just used the level select to play each level for a while. I really need to go through it all at once someday.
Clash At Demonhead the Rock and Roll band or video game??
The video game was first..Then the comicbook series scott pilgram vs the world and movie with singer with Brie Larson
All band names in the Scott Pilgrim series are video game references. Sex Bob-omb, Kid Chameleon, Sonic & Knuckles, The Clash at Demonhead, Crash and the Boys, Shattterband, etc. The series is littered with game references in general.
I like your old skoo vids! Arigato!
My favorites are Krion Conquest and Golgo 13.
Will you ever do rankings of Jaleco, Natsume, or Taito?
John... You forgot the unreleased Vic Tokai game "Secret Ties"
Please go check it out.
Love that game! I just go for US releases.
Great video John! Thanks for sharing! ✌
Psycho Fox and Kid Kool actually have the exact same level design, too. Clash at Demon Head is great; sank countless hours into it back in the day.

I love Bump 'N Jump. Its really cheap for the cart too
My favorite Vic Tokai developed game landed on the Mega Drive & Sega Genesis, Whip Rush released in 1990.

Great list pat the nes punk would argue about the B you gave GOLGO 13 LOL
Love it do Mindscape next
I love hearing people's NES opinions thanks for this series!
I don't get how The Krion Conquest got away with ripping off Mega Man. Would think they would have been sued and forced to pull the game.
Clones were pretty common and they are not illegal. Did you ever play Tiny Toon Adventure? It’s a straight clone of Mario 3 and it’s really good.
Capcom was the only one that got butthurt enough to sue anyone over cloning their game, and they lost badly.

Everytime one of these come out it gives me a new list of games to play on retro pi
I was one of those gamers that made it a point to beat every nintendo game I played. Golgo 13 was one I've rented and never got to beat.
Couldn't agree more with Clash at Demonhead. I always felt it was kinda similar to the Monster Land/World series on the Master System and Genesis. It's a very underrated game, and a ton of fun if you can forgive it for some of the quality-of-life issues it has.
Secret Ties, the other Golgo game is awesome also! Available as a prototype
Wait...Vic Tokai isn’t some random dude?
Ha. I thought that my entire life until this video. I figured there was a guy in Japan named Vic and he owned the company. Oh well.
When i was a kid i always thought it had something to do with george Takei

Oh my.

I’m so with you on Golgo 13. It has so much that it does and has a fond place in my heart and is great. The sequel is real great, also.

Another great video! Bring on the Data East video!
Eventually.
Hi John! Have you ever checked out or reviewed Seika games for the SNES?
Legend... and probably others.
Top secret episode was amazing, took me FOREVER to beat it
I had Krion Conquest as a kid and it got destroyed in a basement flood. Wish I still had it.
Excellent! Still waiting for Jaleco
I love Clash at Demonhead! I have also never beat it! I really want to pick up a copy of Krion Conquest!

Said before proceeding to not demonstrate this.
haha, yeah, I wasn't watching the footage when I was talking about this game.
@@JohnRiggs Lol, you brought it up, so I wanted to see it! Thanks for what you do, I love your videos!
I loved Conflict as a kid, it's a great strategy game, I wouldn't consider it an F
You have to be anti-strategy game to give a classic like Conflict an F. Riggs is upfront about his dislike of the genre though.
I love Clash at Demonhead! it deserved a sequel and I'm also a Golgo 13 fan since a long time ago, the manga is fantastic!
