Battletoads (NES) - Part 6 : Oh My Thumb it Begs for Mercy

Just another short part today, because the last level is looooooooong. Mainly due to me being slow at it, but it is fairly long on its own, too. This video does contain the stage that ruined the majority of my runs, though...

Stage 11 - Clinger-Winger : Yeah, death to this stage. The concept of this stage is simple... Hold the d-pad in the direction you are moving. Yeah, sounds easy enough... then there are the corners. If you are not holding the correct direction on the d-pad, you slow-down substantially... This is a problem at corners as you need to switch between directions with pixel-perfect timing to not get slowed down. There is no gradually sliding to the next direction, it is just BAM! Switch directions! The whole time you are being chased by some kind of electrified hypno orb, which kills you if it catches you, so you NEED to take those corners near perfect, constantly. Even worse, this stage has NO check-points, so you need to beat it all at once. Yes... this is incredibly cruel, and thus, the Game Over screen found me many a times here, but not during this run. If you DO manage to survive the entire stage, though, you have to fight the orb that was chasing you... sooooo... why did the toads not just stop and beat the thing up FIRST?!

Enjoy!~

besides, there aren't many straight parts, but the most of them are quite long, so the orb gets quite close when you get a considerable distance from it. That's why i hate it.

@LuigiDodgeball But the orb appears BEFORE the bike starts moving!

[NesGamer105]

level 11 is easy. if you at the corner press pause and the direction is coming!

[LuigiDodgeball]

The only reason I can think that you couldn't fight it was because the bikes are moving too fast for the Toads to do anything except turn corners.

I think I passed this stage just once and died at the last level...what a great game

This is gotta be one of the hardest levels in gaming history. 2nd only to level 9. Which happens to be in the same damn game! It took me forever to beat this game...

In the Rat Race level, I was killed FAR too many times in the middle of the kick animation for the last bomb!
