WonderBoy in Monsterland Arcade Playthrough 1/9

Wonderboy in Monsterland arcade version playthough.

Played with a piece of crap joystick, with several mistakes.

Played to death in the 80s in my local arcade, where else could you get like an hour of gameplay on one credit?

(might do a better one later)

Levels 1 and 2. Take some stupid unneeded hits, unoptimal use of the whirlwinds, but what can you do with such a crappy joystick? Also buy the wrong shield for optimal use to the Legendary shield. 2 years of not playing it showing how rusty I am.

So I'm watching this and I see you drop the whirwinds right before jump for hidden coins...is that a hack or just a programming mistake on their end? I gotta try that! I love the letting the little mushroom guys knock you into the hidden gold spots too, hilarious!

@gdloco1977 yes, using the whirlwinds greatly increase chances of getting 66+ golds, im not sure of the algorithm, but its worth it. Fireballs (with an enemy on screen) also work good, bombs work a little, and thunder really doesnt help at all imo.

And yes, certain areas you can force an enemy to hit you into the gold, thus guaranteeing a 66+ gold.

Did they HAVE to have him running around in a diaper at the start?

I finally beat this game for the first time on PS2, 1cc but it wasn't easy. In the superplay, he does all the same tricks but there is another one with the ceramic boots where in certain locations he stabs the air as he jumps and it gives him the 66 gold. He says if you do it correctly it works 100% of the time, I've done it but the button timing is really difficult on the PS2 pad. He finished with about 7k gold.

How badass that a kid can save the world wearing a diaper.
