God you have to love the bad english in this game."You feel strongth welling up in your body" XD classic! "This story is happy end." "Take key for coming in." All great!
Haha, in 1985 I was with my mom in the laundromat, and I saw this game for the first time and was like omg! the graphics and the music are awesome, played it many times. Until this day, whenever I smell that clean clothing smell from a laundromat (it could be outside of a building, I remember this game), to me, I was like, man this game matches with the smell of fabric softener, lol little did I know there would be 2 more awesome sequels! ghouls n ghosts and my fav.super ghouls and ghosts (snes)
In my humble opinion as difficult as this game is,the only stage that I find really challenging is level 5,for two reasons:1. you have to use the shield which has very limited range and 2. have to deal with the two devils simultaneously who are very fast and aggressive especially with those ninja stars.
When I finally beat level 5 today after a million tries, the game informed me that I couldn't proceed since the shield was not equipped as my weapon; not only does that make no sense, but the game never hinted that I needed it in any way, shape or form.
So instead of getting the key for going through the ogre gauntlet, surviving the ungodly amount of red demons, and beating the two guards at the end, I got sent back to level 4 instead. **** you, Capcom.
@abdulmuhsee yeah that pissed me the fuck off too, i beat them flying devils with the fuckin lance and they told me that i couldn't advanced because i needed to obtain some bitch ass shield....lol...ain't gonna lie, the sheild is the strongest weapon....but capcom was wrong for that...lol
@CaptainAppleManFilms Sure, you can find the info for both machines around. The arcade hardware for this game did use a Z80, like the Genesis. However, the other sound chips were different. I think this sounds a fair bit different (it's probably a higher quality, too).
Wow, I didn't realize what a lazy programming job the designers did with this game, what with all the duplicate bosses and requiring two playthroughs. If I ever beat the game and found out that I had to do it all over again, I would've bashed the cabinet with a sledgehammer.
You missed your armour pick up in the 2nd loop on the first level, when fighting the first small devil there's a gap in the fence, jump and armour drops at the gravestone before crossing the water.
@cubex55 that's true and i'm aware of that, but jerky even halfed can be seen. i don't get it smooth on multiple mame versions here, so i asked if the real machine is stuttering alike same way.
@RaSan69 yep. demons crest was a spin off of the ghost and goblins series and showed more the other side of the story of ghost and goblins . =) do u have another questions? ^^
I appreciate you ran through the game twice to get the real ending. This game is by far the hardest game I've ever played.
Too much for Arthur rescuing the princess already in his undies expecting to get some, just for that very same princess putting back his armor with a chastity belt attached. O_o
It's too bad developers back in the day didn't have the sense to get a proper translator...or have the sense to actually ASK someone who spoke native English if what was being said made any sense.
