"Thou canst hast the power of a berserker." Sadly, he looks like a retard while swinging his sword like that.

Haha. Probably by thinking if you pressed a lot of buttons, the game would give you another chance.
I am the Kenseiden master. Game doesn't get enough recognition!

talbot, or anyone else here, can you guys please clue me in on why great games like this back in the 80s never had a save game or password feature? I mean c'mon! Can't the game's programmers tell not everyone can do this in one sitting?!?!

Money!
It would have cost a lot more to spend time creating a password system for the game.
Batteries made the games more expensive. Phantasy Star was the first Sega game I bought with battery backup, it cost $80 20 years ago.

@talbot1939 This isn't quite correct.
For a save system, yes, you need a battery and it bumps up the cost. Battery-backed saves were a big feature at the time for precisely this reason. But passwords don't need a battery, they're purely a programming task. I can think of a good few reasons why they wouldn't have them though, and I may well do a video about this!
(Also; check me out, resurrecting a 2 year old thread!)

@aawood I guess I inferred creating a password system would increase the development costs . I can only guess but a lot of SMS games would have much smaller budgets than their NES counterparts. Make a video! I like retro games as u can guess :)

cool run man, though why did you skip 2 obstacle courses? eh, maybe you wanted to do a 100% completion run in the future XD

Youtube doesn't allow me to upload videos above 11 minutes in length so I try to squeeze the action game runs into 2 parts of 10-11 minutes each. If I had done the bonus level I'd have to add a third segment only a minute long so it wasn't worth it.
