This has to be a machine-assisted play through... IE, using save states to backtrack when the king dies. There's no way he could beat it in one go like that otherwise.
Dude, this brings back memories from playing NES games with NESticle on a Pentium 100MHz box. Must have been like eight years ago. Since then I've been thinking, from time to time (about once a year or so, while contemplating on the ambivalence of the Universe), that this game is arguably one of the shittiest NES games ever. Yet someone probably spent a lot of time putting it together. I don't know why I just wrote this! =)
@AbbeAbyss If you were as a philosophical mind as you say then you'd have realised that this is a clever game with a few faults and terrible controls.
I hope you're being ironical with that comment... because seriously, I don't see anything clever about this game. I see no puzzles, no combat strategies, no character development, no dialogues....c'mon, tell me what is clever about this game?!
And before anyone brags about system limitations, let us not forget that games such as Final Fantasy and Zelda were originally developed for the NES.
The NES version of Bokosuka Wars was just a poor conversion of a good game. That's why it's broken. I recommend checking out the original Sharp X1 version of the game released in 1983. In that version, you start out with a large army right from the beginning, so there's very little of that "You Lose" stuff in the original version.
Let's also not forget that Bokosuka Wars (at least the X1 version) was a hit in its time and hugely influential, spawning the strategy RPG genre in Japan.
I would also recommend playing the MSX version, which is faithful to the original X1 version. I played the MSX version and had a lot of fun. In that version, you start off with an army from the beginning and you obtain more units later by freeing them from cages, not trees. it's very strategic, with none of that "You Lose" if you play strategically (I didn't get any "You Lose" until the last 50m). It's a shame the NES version was a bad, slow, sluggish port with too much randomness.
You can download the MSX version of Bokosuka Wars by looking for it on Google, and then run it on an MSX emulator. Same goes for the X1 version. There very little text, so there's no language barrier issues. In fact, much of the text that is there seems to be in English, even in the original Jap X1 and MSX versions. Either way, the X1 and MSX abandonware versions of Bokosuka Wars are far superior to the inferior NES version that Nintendo released on their Wii Virtual Console.
I think the reason why the NES version was inferior is probably because of hardware limitations. The NES console probably couldn't animate as many sprites on screen at a decent speed as the X1 or MSX computers could, so they probably reduced the size of the army and limited it to a small party, turning the NES version into a random trial-and-error fest instead of a real-time strategy like the original computer versions.
Just because it was on the NES doesn't give it the excuse to have animation like this. Shoot, plenty of great NES games (and even not-so-great ones) had waaaaay better animation... and were actually fun!
Nah. There's a lot of things wrong with Bokosuka Wars, but the presentation is the most understandable. Famicom games without special memory mapping chips and extra RAM are barely more sophisticated than Colecovision games, and prior to games like Super Mario Bros. upping the ante, they were all pretty sparse. The game itself was ported from very limited eighties PCs, and was a relatively high concept strategy game (but undeveloped and poorly executed) designed and implemented by one guy.
Yeah Dragon Warrior, which was released years later from Dragon Quest and much more improved.
Have you played the Japanese Dragon Quest on Famicom? The graphics, gameplay and password save system... it feels like a different game from Dragon Warrior with its improved visuals, tweaked gameplay and battery backup.
Oh well, hey I've got something interesting for you to know. Did you know this game (Bokosuka Wars) was developed by the same team as the NES Ghostbusters? Strange huh?
No wonder why its so horrible!!.. no actually, I kinda liked the ghostbusters game, even though it was hard as hell. Yea i rememebr seeing the japanese dragon quest. still thought it was better then this, but i guess this game blows the pants off of anything atari was offering.
When the author said he manipulated luck, he wasn't kidding at all. He had 20 equal opportunities to die, yet he didn't somehow. Any battle, denoted with the flashing B and crossed swords, can cause the infamous "WOW! YOU LOSE!" game over screen to appear since the random number generator plays a huge part in determining enemy death or player death. The level of successful play does weigh more as the game goes on, but luck still plays way too much of a part in the game to be either fair or fun.
