I played this on the Wii. The graphic quality is so much more clear and crisp, You can even to do the Shop trick to buy items cheaper. It takes a stupid amount of points(at least 780,000) to max out strength, and at least 340,000 to max out health. Go to gamefaqs.com to find out what penalizes your score to earn Strength. Someone even cracked the Treasure Room to win almost everytime. With this info, anyone can finally OWN this game for all the agonizing frustration it caused us all!!
lol remembers me how video games where so tough back then... I played gradius last day, 25 years later haha, I got beaten up in like 30 seconds, but way back I finished the game, no I wonder how
I remember this game and still own an actual 8-bit cartridge. Those ''hammers'' are actually mallets. They can only be used in the castle levels at the end, and you do so with the select button. You have to hit those ''centurions'' (the stone figured soldiers you see) and they help you defeat the enemy at the end, but they are so retarded and end up getting killed a lot easier so I don't use them. In the treasure room, that's actually called the ''god of poverty.'' Great video btw.
You get the levels, if you kill your enemies and collect the hearts, but the "invisible score" you are collecting reduces is you get hit. It also reduces ALWAYS, when you shoot arrow, so don't miss.
There are also many other things that lower or increase the "invisible score".
It started out long ago when I did it as a necessity, then when I finally picked up a gamepad for the computer (so I could play fighting games like Street Fighter), I discovered I play most games faster on the keyboard than with a gamepad. So even though I have an actual controller handy, I use the keyboard.
You have probably figured this out by now, but when you jump from platform to platform, you can hold 'Up' as you land to keep from sliding around, and falling in trying to correct yourself.
I love the opening music, and i have a question, how do you keep your hypercam videos to keep the whole length, as in, 640 by 480? Mine i set to 640 by 480, but when its recorded it comes out has 480 by 480. Could you help me?
Ditto. I have yet to finish this major pain in the ass game. I guess it's because I have the attention span of a frozen waffle (ironic that people always tell me that, since I HATE waffles!) and I can only take so much of this game before I call it quits.

As far as I know, the prize for winning the Treasure Room is random. It can be a Barrel, Water of Life, Credit Card or Feather.

In the treasure rooms, (I think), once you get a Heart or Hammer, you cannot get anymore and will be taken out of the room.

@Scous I played this as a little kid once on the nes and this was back when the game was more or less new.
I think it was in 1988 or 1989 ish and it was at the house of my next door neighbour.
I never liked this game much because it becomes so brutal later on when those eggplant men appear and block your attacks.
piromaniac9999 5 months ago
@Scous I usually try to go in between frustrating games because i am not a big fan of suffering,and i don't like to stay mad too long.
If i'm relaxed then i don't mind playing 1 frustrating game once in a while.
I once spent 7 hours on 1 level or was it 8? on the final level of ninja gaiden 2,i was sick of it after playing that game and i needed a rest.

Not sure what the issue could be. If you use it to select a region, the issue might be that you need to simply select a specific window with it.
