Back To The Future NES Review/Walkthrough

[Sukuun]

AND KEN

HE WANNA HAVE FU-UN

OH KEN JUST WANNA HAVE FUN

[KurtKokaine1]

This game just doesn't come CLOSE to doing the movie justice. Lol, what a strange piece of shit. Also lol @ 5:49 - Even though Lea Thompson is sexy as hell, that shit still ain't right.

[2fast109]

i love your reviews!

[MrBw1982]

I got as far as the school. The game seem like it was easy sometimes and harder the next time you played it when you got to the same level you died on

(minigame)

[ThenThereWasB]

Cock block yourself with a book? GENIUS! XD

[dorourke105]

2:55 Oh, I guess you don't wanna play Goonies 2 for the nes then. Most of the overworld is a Cyndi Lauper song

[funkygamecritic]

i sharted

[rambling123456]

classic movie, bad game

[kyoku1982]

This game is manure! I Hate manure!

[BlitzkriegBR]

Uwe Boll made this game?

[suspekt29]

One of these days I will be strapped down to a chair and I will say to my arch villian, do you expect me to talk, and his reply was, no mr. bond, I expect you to listen to the music for BTTF NES fora duration of at least 2 hours

[Quartrez]

The music of this game is the riff from "Power of Love" sped up.

[funkiersnoog]

Another game based on a movie series that should have a new game made. Throw in various alternate timelines, and the game would at least be interesting.

[DRstaszak]

i like your attitude

[theperfectone121212]

Eh, you're right on the Cyndi Lauper thing. That's Beethoven compared to the music in this game.

[shadowmariogalaxy64]

love the AVGN reference at the ending screen

[petercharleskrug]

1:59 Don't know if anyone's pointed this out to you before, but I have one slight correction: those aren't Marty's parents with him in the photo, they're his older siblings.

[123stephenno]

avgnripoff avgnripoffavgnripofff

[Isolder74]

@123stephenno He's nothing like the AVGN.

[Actiomedey]

@123stephenno stupidfanboy stupidfanboy

[HRZONE2]

your voice sounds like one of my old teachers lol.

[butchyboxer]

fuck i got to 47 and got hit.

[DarkVaati13]

D- More like F- - - - - - -

[PTW315]

you have no delivery

[iceblue1220]

Can you do uninvited? The game is stressing me out!

[dnelson420]

Wow, thanks for posting this! Ive never made it past the school with Lorraine blowing kisses...

[Nemesis986]

isnt this a behind the back angle game? not an overhead.

[Bananadine]

I never played this game back in the day. It looks like it has an interesting design, with the timer instead of hit points and the rhythm-based minigames.  But of course that design also appears to be executed pretty poorly. Too bad!

[Doommaster1994]

The in-game music is from the movie. It's a sped up version of Power of Love.

[jameygamer]

@Doommaster1994 There was no way I could tell that that was the Huey Lewis song from the game soundtrack. It just sounded too warbly to get any kind of melody.

[hateWinVista]

omg back to the future game GOD!

You must practiced a lot.

[mireaux7]

!!! lmfaorofl....5:22 "marty has to cockblock himself with a book"

[deloreanrc]

the last lvl is werid because you have to avoid lighting to get to lighting wtf did they not se the second movie when the delorean is not moveing but is sent back to 1885 i mean the shit man

[pegasus316187619]

@RobRetroX and they sucked donkey dick as well

[johnu78]

Two thumbs up!!!

[neuweiwit]

I love this review.

[buuski]

yes.

also, "aforementioned"??

[agentcak]

Great Movie! Shitty game! God damn that LJN but if you think that's bad you should try the sequel I think that's even worst!

[diezil1987]

"i guess that makes you a motherfucker"

LMAO!!!

[clipse375]

@diezil1987 LMAO! I laughed out loud when he said that

[Quikstepper]

I think this review is better than Angry Video Game Nerd's, Great job

[neuweiwit]

Why the hell do you get only one chance to get back to the future?

[basketballjocks]

because they want to make the game longer

[LavosTrigger]

Best reviewer on youtube.... you rock dude

[windwaker15]

LJN Sucks. Thank God The company Broke Up In The 1990's. Hey Aqualung You Should Try Dr. Jekyll And Mr. Hyde. I Played It And Dragons Lair. Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde Is Way Worse. XD

[durnssh18]

irate gamer is a dick

[feckingbillgates]

All anybody needed to do to make a passable Back to the Future game was create a straightforward platformer with a reasonable amount of puzzle solving. Seems like the most obvious thing in the world, but as you say, the rainbow of death was on this franchise and there it ended.

[DANATANLOVER]

Ding-ding-diddly-dee, DEE-DEE!

Ding-ding-diddly-dee, DEE-DEE!

Ding-ding-diddly-dee, DEE-DEE!

Ding-ding-diddly-dee, DEE-DEE!

Ding-ding-diddly-dee, DEE-DEE!

Ding-ding-diddly-dee, DEE-DEE!

[piggybankvillan]

Aqualung > AVGN, Irate, etc.

[Pwnisher248]

Correction:

Aqualung = AVGN (their awesomeness is too equal to measure)

Aqualung > Irate Gamer

[Slarto]

I guess that makes you a motherfucker - rofl.

[yunakitty]

I know, that made me crack up too!!

[DennisBer]

already have done a review of ghosts 'n goblins? if not, maybe its a good idea.

[Kasigi03]

Ok Im pretty aware of LJN and their shittiness but did they really never make even ONE good game?

[kibjohn]

LJN publishes games, not make them. Back to the Future was published by LJN, but developed by Beam Software.

[Pennaz91]

You know what, those LJN look very similar to the Phoenix Games, which are ALL disgusting!

[OverlordJake]

Wow, when I played this game many years ago I didn't even get to the school. Cool review.

[SlayerVicarious]

Haha this shit looks ridiculous.

[finalfantasyrules222]

love the walkthroughs dude keep them up

[OblivionGaui]

excelent work

[jameygamer]

You thought this was bad? Check out the sequel sometime, Ken!

[AqualungGameReviews]

Unfortunately, I have tried the sequel. I have never been able to keep the game on for more than 5 minutes before shutting it off in disgust. It will be a lot fun trying to walkthrough that one haha.

[DClem1]

Oh God! I've seen Aqualung review Dragon's Lair! Back to the Future 1 and 2 are bad but not near as bad as that game!

[RedCanSoda]

No way! If you played through Dragon's Lair on the NES then YOU CAN play through Back to the Future 2 &3. I know it is a pitiful game but I don't think anything is worse than Dragon's Lair.

[windwaker15]

There Is One NES Game Worse, Dr. Jekyll And Mr. Hyde

[EdmacZ]

Unsurprisingly, that too was made by LJN.

[warcraftowner]

@AqualungGameReviews CornshaqGaming did a walkthough of the game and it took him over 2 hours to do just part 2. Good luck if you have the patience to actually walkthrough it.

[Actiomedey]

@AqualungGameReviews I think he means the one that only came out in japan. Even AVGN liked that!

[t3dd123]

@AqualungGameReviews Do one. Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee­eeeeeeeeeeease?

[Sukuun]

@AqualungGameReviews It took a TOOL ASSISTED playthrough FORTY FIVE minutes to beat it.

[DClem1]

Thank god LJN isn't around nowadays! They're like the corporations right now, shitting the bed while they fucking go to the bank after molesting some of the best movie titles into piles of dinosaur shit!

[OmegasMovie]

Nice Review ^^

[bookittty182]

excellent review aqualung! I applaud you for reviewing BTF!! BTF was such a shitty game!!

[ScrewAttackEurope]

There's been about three versions of BTTF 1 on computers, this one, a Japanese one on the MSX, which has fuck all to do with the movie and a bizarre one from the UK.

Oh, there's also one based on the ride for the gamecube.

[sanitycollapse]

thanks for the history lesson =-p

[Vandalia1998]

This was the 2nd NES game I ever got

[FireJigglypuff2310]

You're really good at this, I could never beat the cafe level

[InvaderPet]

2:55- Cyndi Lauper rocks!

[TuxedoRay]

Cool review, but I believe this game is F material. Silver Surfer was better than this cause it had good music. :)

[LLproductions01]

nice review and walkthrough. Never played this hopefully never will.

BTW i'm a huge AVGN Fan.

[10yearnascarfan]

another excellent review kenny. now i like the movie. but you're right about how they tweaked it a tad. but it's not look anyone could tell the difference 18 years ago.

[DClem1]

The Cafe level reminds me of the game Root Beer Tapper except you don't die until they get to the counter.

[narutoizcool330]

i liked the 2nd movie

[EdgeRatedR007]

"if you miss one that makes you a motherfucker" AHAHAHA that was awesome

[TheEventMaker]

i knew you were going to put this : D

[HBKanedge818]

Great review Aqualung. Even AVGN tore this game a new asshole!

[nigelpfoster]

oh my god! you reviewed the game better than avgn and the iate gamer!!!!

a new hero is rising!!!

[vintagevideogamegeek]

Kenny, you have once again amazed me with your ability to play through horrible games and maintain your sanity. I can think of no man who can do this. I have never seen anyone get past the soda shop. Bravo!

[Nightshade3D]

What's wrong with Cindy Lauper? >:3

[KoiKitsune2006]

You actually beat it? Wow, kudo's.

[Nickrj3]

the music is actually a super fast version of The Power of Love by Huey Lewis.

[Loader2K1]

Hey, Aqualung, just to clarify:

The picture at the bottom of the screen contains 1955 Doc, Marty, and 1985 Doc.

[vintagevideogamegeek]

Are you sure? In the movie it was Marty and his sister and brother.

[Loader2K1]

That was the film. In the game, it's Marty and the two incarnations of Doc Brown.

[vintagevideogamegeek]

That makes no sense at all. Does the manual say why that is?

[Loader2K1]

It's been ages since I last seen the instruction manual to this game, but I assume that change was due to either legal reasons or done at the creative liberty of the game's designers.

[Eron2828]

I played this game so much as a kid. I never did get to the second mini-game...

I opted to play good games instead.

[HalfBlindGamer]

Fun to see more of the game, and sorry you had to suffer through it for this video!

The Spectrum version was even better...

[AmbulanceProductions]

Another great vid, keep it up!

[HandeToon]

"If you miss one... well, I guess that makes you a motherf*cker" =)

Nice review, a rather awful game.

[Urschak]

that line was realy funny ^^

Cool Review

[dalek22]

If I played that game for 5 mins, I would never play it again. That looks like the most reppetative game ever and boring.

[AICJDR]

Great review....but come on man..Cyndi Lauper has some good songs...Time After Time is a classic.

[AICJDR]

What are you lookin at Butthead?

[traceacex]

Good god, man. You're kind of a retro gaming god, I think.

Awesome review. I never got to the end of this game as a kid, so it was interesting to see it now. :)

[chuppachoppa]

"Why don't you make like a tree ... and get outta here!"

[MaximumRD]

Great great review! Excellent job man!

[TheUltimateGamer07]

If you ask me, with only a select few exceptions, games based on movies are doomed to suck. Movies based on video games, even worse.

[HumanStrategy]

I just got hit on the head by a nostalgia brick, oh man. That game really sucked. I remember at least 2 ruined Saturdays by this game.

[TheArchfiend]

Dude, you just got yourself a 24 hour auto-play feature on my channel. This review must be seen by people who think those reviews that AVGN and IG did can hold a candle to the job you did going over this game.

Hands down my favorite review you have done thus far. Good job.

And how the hell could IG and AVGN not mention the "kill all" move? That is a pretty huge thing for them to not mention in this game.

[TAKEMONEY9]

"i guess that makes you a motherfucker" hahahahhahahahhaa

[happypranksgiving]

This game DOES have the first version of Guitar Hero in it though, doesn't it? :P

[jcrist]

I have never seen anybody get that far, how did you stick with it? that game is so lame.

[BohepansTheThird]

I just...wow. Everytime you do a review, I'm surprised by at least something. For one that you went through the whole game without A) ripping off of others, or B) changing your mind. For another that you can seemingly so easily review a game that's been done before (multiple times, even, like this one) without, again, ripping off of anyone else. I don't know how you do it, but keep doing what you do, sir. Unlike this game's repeating streets, you bring something new to the table everytime.

[Borastheantichrist]

I know that LJN made this travesty but you would think that even they would be wise enough to use the Back to the Future theme during at least some of the stages...

[LARUCUS]

no more atari??? where E.T???

[timsalmons1982]

"Guess that makes you a mudda fucka" LOL That made literally LOL. Another great review. I don't blame you for skipping the 15+ street scenes. SOS over and over again.

[dman4357]

the song at the beginning is on rockband 2

[letsgetsomeshoes1239]

OMG AVGN RIPOFF UR GEY

Nah just kidding. Great review as always.

[timsalmons1982]

LOL Nah, this guy actually plays the games AND completes them. He doesn't sit there and play a couple of levels and dream up as much filthy language as he possibly can for laughs. In other words: Aqualung > AVGN. That's right I said it. :D

[TennesseeHusker]

for sure if you really love old games, this guy is where its at. I like AVGN as well, but this guy is a real gamer. I like his eccentric taste in games he plays through.

[chuggaaconroy]

I commend you for playing so well.

[erick103]

YESSSSSSSSSSSSS!!

Another Aqualung!

You have no idea how intently I wait for your reviews dude! They're hilarious and well done!

Keep up the good work!!

[ZuuLSpAcEmAn]

Aqualung is a fucking beast, he conquers some hard games and doesn't lose his mind doing it. You rule man, keep it up, tired of the same cookie cutter whiny reviews, you're actually intelligent and funny at the same time. Rare to find someone that ain't copying AVGN(though you do a lot of the same games, the reviews are totally different). Plus you like kickass music.

[dragonpullman]

Awesome review, although I wonder what prevented this game from getting an F.

[PsyberDucky]

I really like your reviews. Your reviews are great because even when you play a terrible game, you at least give it a respectable review. In AVGN his reviews of the same games generally do not even show more than one or two levels.

Keep up the great reviews.

[plutopig666]

This thing is brutal, great gaming skills.

[goiterfaceburger]

ha, cockblock yourself with a book

[ZeldaTimeline]

Nice job at restraining yourself from referencing the Irate Gamer at the end there... XD

[vintagevideogamegeek]

I caught that too. Pretty funny!

[Q9R42]

Sweet review (:

Very detailed.

[muichimotsu]

I thought the picture was supposed to represent you and your two siblings. Not your parents, though there is the level at the end with your parents dancing and all.

[vintagevideogamegeek]

You are right. It is his sister and brother.

[blade1550]

awesome review

[Dusntman]

i guess that the part of the guitar is the first guitar hero mini game ever

[porkstamina]

"I guess that makes you a motherfucker."

Great line, and I can't believe you played through this POS.

[posthumanfetus]

Didn't LJN also do terminator? They really need to stop playing with the time space continuum because they cannot make anything good come from it.

[vintagevideogamegeek]

Yep. That one sucked too.

[mrbughorn]

Biff.

[TrueSoreThumb]

5:55 "Mother****er" .. Lol.. !

[nintendogangster]

I hate this game too

[mrbughorn]

Good Longbox to you!

[nintendogangster]

thx :)

[SONICVSMARIOX]

lol great review.walkthrough :P

[syxx573]

yes!! new review

sit-ting on the park bench

[TwigsInc]

You have the patience of a god. Love your vids.

[mrbughorn]

Biddy biddy biddy biddy!

[ExandShadow]

First comment! I r teh winnar of teh youtube grand prix!!! (sarcasm)

Seriously though, great review.

[mrbughorn]

Uh oh! I said first comment/view once, and got thumbs downed back to the Stone Age.

[munk237]

much respect to you on this one. I hate this game like no other
