  • I recently bought a snes and purchased this game, man its tuff i can go to the second last level on expert but the boss is really tuff you need the copper or gold armour to stand a chance but for the rest of the level's its all memory,timing and patience, beleive me. One of funnest game's for the snes i think.

  • How heavily was Maximo based off this game, I wonder?

  • I have this on Playstation

  • I used to love this game. Never beat it though.

  • This is one of the few old games I actually finished, at like 10, years and years ago. (1994 or so)

  • Loving the music slowdown. Utterly ridiculously impossible game. Looked great though!

  • an epic song to go along with an epic fail

  • This game is like the most wicked ever, but I got through it. Finally. After five years of trying.

  • I LOVE THIS GAME. I die a lot haha but i love it so muchh. Brings it back

  • THIS GAME IS SO HARD BUT BRILLANT DEFINTLEY GET YOUR MONEYS WORTH NOT LIKE TODAYS GAMES

  • I remember some slowdown in the SNES version, this seems worse than I remember though. Classic game, I wish they'd reboot it on XBLA.

  • NOT THE BOW IT´S THE WORST WEAPON IN THIS GAME!

  • @SuperTensaZangetsu The bow is awesome, more often then not you get hit when you are jumping to try and hit the enemy, so a weapon that can hit enemies without having to jump is very useful, plus with the bonus from the armour it's very powerful. Trying to get past the red demons without the bow is very hard. Then again the daggers are pretty good also. I think we can all agree though that the magic amulet SUCKS.

  • @MarkTeePee Well the amulett sucks really its the reason why I don´t play the game anymore :/ And the Fact that you have to go trough every f***in level again! Btw I love the scythes and torches :D 

  • @SuperTensaZangetsu

    Dude wtf, the Bow/Bow upgrade is the second best (following dagger) weapon in this game man.

    Excellent speed, B.A. range, demolishes Aeriel enemies, etc. Weapon was intense bro.

  • Doesn't look hard ._.

  • @eduse1256 It's hard. My brother's used to be unable to get past the first level when we first got it. Several years later...... he couldn't get past the second level. But still, no one can kick ass in boxer shorts like Arthur can!

  • Fantastic music!

  • The map music is the best ever. Perfect cell phone ring. Cruel, creepy.

  • the best game

  • this openning video is scary ): i'm still afraid of it ))))))):

  • jaja no maa que viejos tiempos horas y horas xD

  • what memories...this games rocks

  • this game would scare the shit out of me...like serious nightmares for some wierd reason but i still played it

  • is it just me or is newer games easy but older games were ment to bring a challenge to table cause i kind of hate this new school bull shit

  • i loved this game!!!!! still do i need to buy a wii cuz on the comment below i learned they have it on there for the dloads!

  • This game brings back memories

  • I still have this game lol I remember when I (thought I) beat this game I was absolutely devastated and disheartened when I realised I had to beat it all over again.....Iv'e still never truly beat this fucking game.....TRULY ONE OF THE HARDEST AND MOST FRUSTRATING GAME OF ALL TIME........but still quite awesome though, I think I'm gonna dust off my old snes and bust out some super G'n'G.........

  • Almost seems like, when he is in his underwear.

    He just got up, and thought it would be cool to go to a cemetary.

    Man, kids these days are spoon fed, to have everything on super easy, and when Megaman 9 & 10, those are what i call hard.

  • I think it is harder than "I wanna be the guy"

    I can beat "iwbtg" in less than 3 hours, but I never got past the third level in this game!

  • That game is a pain in the ass. I downloaded it on my virtual console on my Wii. After several attempts, I said, "Fuck it!"

  • I got so sick of dying I never played past the 2nd level. I suck.

  • @WildGunman77 ***SPOILER ALERT*** HAHA, then you'd be extremely sick if you make it to the end! The princess send you back to do it all over for a stupid fucking bracelet that can kill the last master. YES, ALL OVER! AND HARDER THE 2ND TIME! 

  • man i never finish this game :-(

  • cool game

  • This game T - Bags you till you cry, no joke.

  • you missed the first chest at the very left of the map

  • BEST GAME EVER,When i was a kid.This game used tyo piss me off hella bad.ha ha

  • this game sometimes pisses me off xD but its fun tho!

  • I totally remember this game! I remember playing this but couldn't remember wtf the game was called OMG i gotta buy this fer my SNES. I bet they have eitat Gorilla Games. Good thing theres four of em in Florida ^^ sweet! It kinds sux that there not too many GG around o wellz t least Florida has the most

  • hahaha i just noticed those towers that drop skulls are also in maximo ghosts to glory 

  • @ImperviousMason All Maximo was, was a direct ripoff of ghouls and ghosts...nearly everything is taken from here and added there, just 3D.

  • @ChaoticArrow155 it wasn't a ripoff... It was obviously a tribute to ghouls n ghosts.

  • yes i beat the game today. anybody who needs any tips send me a reply or a private message. btw when you get to the level where the princess first tells you about the bracelet, dont give up when she sends you to the first level. the bracelet will appear in a treasure box in the first level.

    note: in order to get the bracelet you have to talk to the princess in the second to last level for ir to appear in the first level

  • Comment removed

  • You really play like me

  • I've beat it. it's the best game of all time.

  • I Want To Be The Guy.

    NIGHTMARES.

    NIGHTMAAAAAAAAAAAAAARES.

  • This must have been the hardest game i've ever played.. I always remember the intro being creepy and scary as hell lol

  • what are the controls for this game on the computer? please help....

  • @terilM2 arrowkeys and "z" and "x"

  • @randyterry23 Thanks very much

  • I had the Japanese version of this for super famicom

  • brings back old memories.... this song was soooo scary for me and i tried playing it once or twice back then but the running zombies made me scream and run to the other side of the room EVERYTIME! haha but even though i was scared i loved watching my brother play this game :-) there will NEVER be a game more creepy than this haha not even resident evil and shit

  • I remember being weirded out by the music as a kid when I first played this. I was used to games having more of an electronic and beepy sound quality (like the NES and Sega's systems) and the warm, fuzzy digital voices of the SNES were pretty strange to me at first.

  • This game is a must have in a snes library but a hard son of a bitch. I loved that game and Im still playing it. Super Nintendo for the fucking win!

  • I own in this game, takes a laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarge

    amount of training but hey, at least i can do it now.

  • Ha, I remember playing this game for the first time when I was 7. I played through most of it with the fairy bracelet until I got to the first dungeon level. When I beat the first two, I was glad to have finally gotten to the last boss THEN the princess tells me that I needed that stupid Fairy Bracelet and to go back to the start and find it again.

    I was not a happy camper, needless to say.

  • @chanchan773 You too? Yeah, that part was

    really annoying. I thought it was over, but then

    you need to go back to the f--king start to do the

    f--cking course all over again.

  • hello!! where can i download this game?? I'd really like to play it on my wii!!!

  • How do you record games from the SNEs emulator? Its different from the game boy advance emulator

  • C'était un excellent jeu de la super nes. J'y ai beaucoup joué. Ce qui m'énervait en revanche c'est qu'il fallait refaire tous les niveaux une fois le jeu fini pour récupérer un bracelet qui pouvait tuer le boss.

  • this seems easier than ghosts n goblins

  • Actually it was more difficult than you think.....Of course it was easier than the Sega version, but this game was a real challenging game, specially to keep Arthur (the player) with the Golden Armour.

  • Ah the ending of this well the first ending of this was the best i was like uhhh what do you mean i gotta go back and find a bracelet??? and there i was rerunning all the levels the most pissed off guy in the entire world

  • I loved this game on super nintendo. . .classic! they should update this for PS3 & XBOX

  • There is an updated version of Ghosts & Goblins on the PSP, I prefer Ghosts & Ghouls though.

  • Demon's Souls for PS3 is pretty close.

  • This is more easy than Ghosts'n Goblins(NES) and the sequel(Genesis).I've beated it many times(and twice!)and looks very good for me! :)

  • i rule i completed this game and killed the final boss (including goign through game twice)

  • This is the hardest game i have ever played without question.

  • ha ha whoever was playing this didn't know where all other boxes are!!

  • I remember this game being soo Fing hard! I couldn't do it, so I just watched my dad play. :)

  • 4:35 is the farest i ever got on this game

    Freaking hard as crap

  • Why are the Zombies able to walk through those stone pillars, but you can't? This game has some charisma (like Super Adventure Island), but the play control sucks and the game is not fun.

  • I love that you use ZSNES to play the SNES version of this game, just like me. May I ask what program you used to record this? My program only does 30 second clips. :(

  • ohhh yeah i remember this game the most difficult game so far to this day and the new one on the psp even harder yeah it brings back memory of me crying and breaking the snes controllers

  • And you think Dragon's lair on the NES was shitty but when it comes to difficulty added to games like this? start off with your armor, get hit once, whince around in your underwear, get hit again, goodbye! Ghouls n' ghosts will never be easy. this is not for sensitive players!!!

  • @bogercs get all the power ups and the best armor and pwn some ass was <3

  • xD my mom reminded me of this song when she used to work at home when i played this when i was alittle kid :P hehe, she said she could work better with it xD rofl

  • i love this game

    i have so many memories in it..

    it was my first super nintendo game:)

  • it was my first snes game, played it on the hardest difficulty, because you just can play it through with the "fairy weapeon" ... long ago :)

  • This game's music is horrible. The regular NES one has much better/creepier music

  • ROFL @ 4:19

  • Man, I don't want to bother but, you fell in the easiest part. Shit.

  • wow , gonig back nearly 20 years now excellent

  • Ive played battletoads

    beaten f zero gx

    beaten I wanna be the guy

    beaten ikaruga

    yah, this is the hardest game ever

  • this is my favorite game of all time

  • This game wasn't horrible it was just fucking hard. Probably the hardest game I've ever played. But epic soundtrack. Love the sound from stage one :D

  • Horrible, horrible game. Thought I completed it and then I had to start again.

  • true lol xDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

  • man i remember playing this as a kid

    im 18 lol

  • used to scare the shit out of me

  • Same here...are "wasted" years with Legends.:D

  • well, i was only about 7-8 years old when my cousin had this... i didnt really waste any years hahha

  • is this the same as ghosts and goblins?

  • This game makes me irate. Every time I obtained the bracelet, I fucking lose the bracelet before getting to main boss. That's why I get irate. I will admit the levels are good, but what a pain in the ass.

  • its not the sequal to ghosts n goblins its the sequal to ghouls n ghosts on the sega genesis

  • ghosts and goblins is the NES version of ghosts and gouls. Nintendo's policies prevented Capcom from using the same title for the Genesis version.

  • Such an addictive game - man I cant believe its almost 20yrs old - I remember playing it over & over again - very long levels & rather slow game-play but it was defo great fun & one of the best SNES games!

  • hard? not hard. I finished it with ease back then. the double jump was a bit awkward yes, but otherwise... medium hard game, one of the best early SNES games for sure!!!

  • yea medium hard game but ranked as number two in the world's hardest gaming series

  • Well then I'm just a very damn good player. I didn't find it too hard, there are many harder games. and what dubious list would that be, world's hardest games, ridiculous.

  • try googling top 25 hardest games of all time

    as dubious as it is for you, ghouls n ghosts is ranked number two

  • it's just dubious for me as I think it isn't the second hardest game ever, there are other.

    Try Majoras Mask on N64 and you know why I mean

  • now that really confuses me, iv played majoras mask and its a great, intuitive game. You are given a fair amount of time to respond to enemy attacks as well as a health bar that can increase as you go further into the game.

    In this game there are overwhelming amounts of enemies, precision jumps (that you have to do with stiff controls), traps that you probably can only pass by memorizing before-hand and you are only allowed one hit per life. I'm sure you've gotten more game overs on this.

  • yeah of course its a great game, but that time restriction of 3 years (72 minutes or something?) is a major drawback. for example I was fighting the third dungeon boss and i had just a few seconds left before the moon would hit Hyrule (was Hyrule?) and I only had to hit the boss 1 time but the time ran out. I was so frustrated that I threw the game out of the N64 and hid it under some stuff in the cupboard. Before I contiuned playing some weeks later :)

  • 3 days not 3 years sorry.

    Super GNG: I got it as a christmas present around 1992 or so.. and was just amazed by the graphics and of course the music of the game. I've beaten it within 1 week. The only frustrating thing is the "jump engine" ;) with no ability to correct the jump width in mid-air, but I got used to it. There were really harder games around. Phalanx on SNES, urks! But it's just my opinion here. :)

  • P.S. I know that you could slow down the time in Majoras Mask, still, was kind of frustrating. Ocarina of Time is clearly better imho. :) Both games have a cool atmosphere. Not en par with Link to the past on SNES which is still my all-time favorite Zelda, but still, great :)

  • well ghouls n' ghosts were notorious for being horribly difficult... zelda games are somewhat nice to the players.

    im not familiar with Phalanx but I assume in there you could at least take a few hits before you die

    altho i guess difficulty really just depends on the person...some ppl find twitch games easier than strat games, vice versa and so on for other genres.

  • I tend to agree with you, different people  think the game is more difficult or less... I think SGNG is not so hard. Ghost'n'Goblins os C64 is a different story. I only advanced to the second level (if at all) before I could play played through with a trainer. Or Dragon's Lair 1. Phew, didn't beat the first level, only on Youtube I saw how the game progressed.

  • Ghosts'n'Goblins on the C64 was probably the easiest of all the Ghosts'n'Goblins ports, enemies all had a simple pattern (like that demon half-way the first stage) easy to see. Try the ZX Spectrum version, Aside from the 9 lives enemies had more irratic behaviour making it almost impossible to play.

  • C64 was a hard version, never made it past the second level and I'm a veteran player :P I dunno the ZX Spectrum or its version of the game.

  • I also never made it past the second level on the C64, but on the Spectrum I couldn't even get halfway the first stage! Even the Amiga version which is more true to the original arcade I could get to the second stage...

  • yes... why did they make that game so gard in the first place.

    I can say I finished the game with the different endings on SNES (my real SNES, 1992, not emu) and didn't have problems with it... strange that I can't beat the C64 nowadays (without a trainer)

  • such a fun game, but very hard as well!

  • I remember beating it back in the day. One of my favorite games along with mario rpg.

  • I agree with you. but one of the best RPGs you'll ever play would be "Kingdom Hearts 2" & if that's not enough, "Final Fantasy XII".

  • Chrono Trigger for snes Secret of mana or Seiken Dentzetsu, Final Fantasy 6, in my opinion are the best RPGs

  • im stuck on the last level

  • One of the hardest games of all time.

  • @Freshhhhh1982 u mad that game wasnt hard

  • Think I first played this around 6th grade?

    After seeing the scrolling map of all the stages I prayed for a password/continue screen

  • Holy crap. I forgot how bad the slowdown in this game was. Even the music! Jeez.

  • Actually it was the video cuz i have the game on my wii and the game runs perfectly, well almost, perfectly smooth

  • Idiot! this game is one of the best on the super nintendo!

  • I was one of the better early games at best. Very flawed with the slowdown though. You fuckin' moron.

  • That game is fucking hard! seriously! get hit once and you'll lose your armor and power? maybe they should've made this game a bit easier. Okay! the walking in your underwear when you get hit is kinda silly but this game is one of the best in the series.

  • Ghouls n Ghosts for the Genesis is better, but this is okay.

  • i remember i got to the end when i was a kid and forgot some item to beat the game. i was tight.

  • u did better than i ever did hahaha

  • best version of level 1 music of the series, assuming they are all the same music themes...

  • How can you play this game online?

  • LOL the over-jump at The end :P

  • Yes how do you defect in Level 12 the big moster and find the princess please help me to be better at this game.

    Michael Salazar

    Super Ghouls N Ghosts # 1

  • oh wow i got to the stage with like snow and stuff then i cant get passed that...addicting though lol

  • Ugh! Forget This Game lol

    Fun But ALMOST Impossible To Beat

    IDK How In The Heck My Brother Beat This Game On Pro : /

  • OMG this game was so hard. I got to the stage where you had to start again from the beginning. I was like wtf? It was hard enough to get to where I was.

  • Hey!! This is exactly the version I have been looking for!! Any kind souls can tell me where can I download the pc version of this for free? Have been searching this for yrs.

    I played this game in an arcade when I was 7 yrs old!

  • Hey 5mwa. First of all, you aren't going to get this game for free unless you steal it. Secondly, this game is "Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts", and unlike the first two games, this went straight to SNES and was not in the arcades.

    Unless somebody had a custom arcade of some kind, you played either Ghosts 'n Goblins or Ghouls 'n Ghosts.

    So, do yourself a favor and find yourself Capcom Classics Collection 1 for PS2 or XBox. It totally kicks ass, it's only $10-$20, and it's got all three games.

  • or for PSP

  • go to romhustler and download the game with a snes emulator

  • whats with the terrible slow down? is this on an emulator?

  • i hate the jumping on this game, its so stiff, and 80% the reason you die so much

  • The jumping physics in this series are an integral feature. It also enables you to fire backwards while jumping forwards.

  • i had this game and beat it the first day when i was like 11, but i had to play it for hours , like 6 hours straight and it was ass that you had to beat it twice

  • Such a hard game :/. I never beat it but was like on the 2nd to last level...wish they had the save feature back then LOL.

  • the had it for years since the 80s but that would make it easy

  • this is on the snes

  • is this one as difficult as the other one? because he other one was impossible ti beat, is this one like that?

  • it's a hard and fun game. I don't blame you.

  • ending+death=5 stars and lol

  • this seems so familiar, although ive never played the psp one before...

  • the ground didnt go up in the version i played! or is that a psp feature?

  • this game is so hard i remember i never beat it. i beat the first one for genesis though

  • The first one was for the NES. The second one was for the Genesis.

  • Now I know where the creator of I Wanna Be the Guy got the 'graveyard' music from. Anyway, this looks like a great game.

  • this is a remake of ghosts n goblins but they seem older in this one lol

  • this is a remake of ghosts n goblins?

  • is this the one where you fight on top of that giant leech thing

  • No, that's ghouls n ghost. This is Super Ghouls n ghost.

  • i have this and its the hardest game EVER

  • it took me 2 weeks of intensive playing to beat this game on the PSP

    This game is so awesome

  • I remember playing this when I was a child, on the Sega Genesis. I thought it was one of the greatest things ever... If I only knew...

  • It "WAS" The greatest thing ever. Then more systems came out.

  • I played it to and i still find it extremly hard even on emulator all these years later

  • This game brings me nightmares when I have to play it again to get the bracelet....:O

    Good old memories, I still have my SNES and games.

  • my fav wep is the dagger, its fast

  • my brothers played this game ALL the time they couldn't get past the first level. Now I wanna try!

  • i beat this game in one life

  • You are the superior organism.

  • Thanks BlaklyonZero!

  • I remember this for the SNES, you'd get right to the end and then your lives would run out without a continue. It really did turn me into a temporarily insane 12 year old. I still love playing the MAME arcade versions from time to time.

  • one of the best games of all time!

  • i used to have this game. i was scared of the music.. i'd turn it down lool

  • Thanks for the video! But this game is called Ghouls'n'ghosts or Ghouls'n Goblin? THX!
