Radical Games #2: Recca (NES)

This is a game that was requested by Pfargtl9000 and I have to say, it's awesome, yet it's difficult (especially the insanely hard bosses where I failed miserably at). This is one of the best NES games I've played and was featured in the CM Top 10 Best And Worst Games video, where it was listed as the second best game I played.

Interestingly, the game was featured in Naxat Soft's "Summer Carnival '92" event and it was well-known for its high sprite count, and the maintaining of fast speeds as you can see in the video.

Not Touhou difficulty (by far) but those are some insanely good graphics for an NES game.

Man, talk about difficult. Looks epic though.

[ArkBlitz]

That's pushing the NES to the limit. And the controller, by the way

The most difficult game I've ever played in my childhood!

Thnky you very, very much 4 reminding my of my childhood!

I've always searched 4 this game!

This is very impressive graphically.

Shows you what the NES could push.

This game was created especially for the Summer Carnival '92 event. It was only released in Japan, and only about 500 copies were printed. It is NOT on the Virtual Console, and cartridge prices generally start at $200 in auction, so if you want to play this game, your best bet is emulation.

lol, it's like any other vertical shooter, boring stuff.

Developers are shameless for there are so many of these trite affairs.

[dedeschwede]

yeah, really what is this??

For some reason, the title screen music sounds extremely familiar...
