Goonies II

This is from the beginning of the NES game.

I was a big fan of the original arcade game, but I can't figure this one out without the old "The Official Nintendo Player's Guide."

games like this were designed vague and hard on purpose, not for the challenge to the hardcore gamer, but to make serious money off the official nintendo guides and help hot-line.

anyone remember those ridiculous hot-lines?

[Tork110]

No. I wasn't allowed to call those things.

I did write in a couple times to Nintendo Power magazine for help. Wish I knew what I did with the replies they sent back.

I hated this game so much when I was a kid, it was so difficult to figure out exactly what you needed to do on so many parts. you whippersnappers don't know what it was like getting stuck on a game with no internet for searching out tips. If Nintendo Power didn't give you tips and tricks for a game you were having problems with, and you didn't have any gaming prodigies as friends you were pretty much screwed.

I got this game at Funcoland and beat it because I still had a copy of The Official Nintendo Player's Guide. That thing told you everything you had to do to beat the game.

oh my god goonies 1 was so much kikass and this one is so crappy, i just cant believe how they screw up a good game like that...

also the tridimensional rooms must be really annoying, im really not gonna play this

[Tork110]

Did Goonies 1 ever come out for the NES? I loved that game but I only played the arcade version at a Showbiz Pizza.

This game came out two years before the Ninja Turtles game.

@bazookafluke oh god, I got stuck on this game every damn time :( it was a hard game back when I was a little kid

[thatguyontheright1]

@Tork110 No it didnt come out on the NES, but it did come out of the Famicom.

wait, two years later....do you even care? Meh

@bazookafluke I am a gaming prodigy.  I don't need the internet or guides to beat these games.

"Ouch!  What do you do?!?" So much fun hitting the old people who claimed there was "nothing here"!

[skyrunner14]

Man... this is freaking classic. I mean, wow. Hey people, this game rocks. There's a certain angry fool who can go die in a ditch.

[teenertaz]

Never finished this but i also got replies from Nintendo Power personnel in the mail..we were obsessed..ha!I cant wait to see the end on here to close another video game void Ive always wondered about!!.

[audreyroses]

I finally beat the game...w/ NO cheats....I was determined...drew the maps on paper, described every room to a tee: where each ladder landed, what was in each room, where to punch/light each room....AND finally beat the game...it is now one of my fave's b/c it was so difficult!

@Tork110 of course it did... it was the best version of the goonies games
