Haha, you are exactly right. There was no way to tell if a game was good. So they slapped together a worthless game and put a brand on it in hopes it would sell. I think the best part of it is the cartridge label.
I don't think NES games cost 50 bucks back in 1989, but I can't back it up... I remember getting megaman 4 in 93 for somewhere between 35-40 bucks. Anyway, I remember getting back to the future for NES in 1990. I enjoyed it but could never get past the soda shop level. Infuriating.
I remember my Toys 'R' Us sold NES games for up to $70. It was outrageous. As late as 1997 Target was charging $70 for Chrono Trigger. Maybe I just lived in an extra shitty town though.
@immarocker nope i got a 10,000 dollar version cus my dad worked at nintendo and he got the very first and he got very rare games from nintendo oh and there was a zelda 3 but it wasnt even published or advertised
LOLOLOLOLOLOL look up back to the future at gamefaqs(dot)com! In the cheats it says "Turn off Annoying Music during gameplay" xD and how to do it says "pause the game, HOLD directional pad, A button, B button and Select SIMULTANEOUSLY and unpause"! Funniest "cheat" i've ever heard, let alone how to do it!
The actor who originally was supposed to play Marty instead of Michael J Fox: "Eric Stoltz" was wearing a black shirt like this one. Pretty sure it's because of that.
@1drughiultras What a terrible investment and marketing strategy that would be. "Hey angry reviewer of old NES games who cusses a lot, we'll give you a bunch of money if you drink our brand of alcohol in your videos that are free to watch on the internet. Hopefully that'll convince people to purchase our shit."
that 50 bucks i will never get back plus a number of hours of my childhood............ Thanks LJN for begin the best game designers there are. i wish i could go back in time too and stop this garbage company from ever existing.
Every time I see that blue bird part, I die from laughter. There's just something about the music, Marty's running animation, the gameplay element, the idea of it all, and James' reaction during it that kills me.
what pisses me off is when I think of how many people got ripped off if this or some other similar pile of shit was a birthday or christmas present. if you were like me, you usually just got about 2 games a year. on those 2 days. imagine getting one of the AVGN reviewed games as a gift. those game companies really took advantage of ignorant parents and the helplessness of kids back then.
"Cool, a bonus stage..." and then Marty just falls off the screen for no apparent reason. That shit was hilarious. These games are fucking pathetic. Glad I never played them. For those of us who played NES growing up, there were far too many good games to occupy our time; there wasn't much time left for this kind of bullshit.
give me a thumbs up if you think irate gamer stole ideas from avgn if you do you i'll tell you youre wrong and even if youre right theres no law saying people cant reveiw the same game
must be nice to just get shitfaced drunk and reflect on all of the world that has come before and all the life that has been experienced, with no regard to the suffering of souls lost in the storm...
AVGN should do a review of the new BTTF adventure game from Telltale Games, even if it isn't the usual type of game he reviews. I just played it and I have to say it was a great experience.
When people are trying to be funny, or when I watch a comedy movie, I rarely ever laugh. Most comedy films are fucking stupid and all the same.
But this fucking guy, this fucking guy, cracks me the fuck up. He is fuckign hilarious! And completely original. Probably funny to me since I can relate to all of this shit, having grown up with all these shitty games, and feeling a lot of what he talks about when I played. Brings back great memories! And shitty ones too lol.
Yet we bitch about movie based games today, they simply didn't give a fuck back then. The first movie base game I remember being decent was Goldeneye, I almost refused to buy it because of my childhood issues with this terrible game and Ghostbusters.
why did he turn off dislike bar, only bad thing about this video is he putting cut scenes from movie to review, it looks retarted but tho funny stuff should be liked!
I'm so glad the game was such a faithful adaption of the movie. They even included the best part of the 1st movie where Biff made a million clones of hinself and trapped Marty in the diner and Marty's only defense was milkshakes. That was easily the best part of the trilogy, although the part where he goes around town in a black wife beater collecting clocks and throwing bowling balls at hula hoop girls and bees was a close 2nd. Man, they don't make movie/ video game adaptions like they used to.
