1. Go here s3kr.it/gauntlet.html and roll a NES game 2. Complete it within 3 days without a guide or other outside aid (RPGs get a week) 3. Keep the thread informed with screenshots of your progress, within reason 4. Roll for the next console when finished and repeat until you can't bring yourself to gauntlet any more
RULES: -No savestates -Failure to complete the game within the allotted time sends you back a console -Hints from your fellow Sup Forumsirgins are allowed
I pwnd that game when I was younger, I was proud of myself too. The series went immediately into the shitter once PS got their hands on it, however the Slayer Edition PSPlus gave us a couple months ago is quite addictive. Just one girls opinion.

Oh shit it's you! >Wizardry II Knight of Diamonds Going to start tomorrow, gotta sleep for now.
Noah Adams
>Your NES game is >Tokkyuu Shirei Solbrain
this sounds pretty fun. updating when i win/something interesting happens.
Elijah Martinez
I've heard great shit about this game.
Brody Nelson
Surprised it's on psn, didn't think I'd ever heard of Galivan before. Looks completely different to this from the screens.
Fuck, last time I did this I got Festers quest for nes, and then the addams family for snes. Then on my next try I got Festers quest again
Dominic Price
Game over #2
Noah Foster
>rolled Dragon's lair
Zachary Hernandez
Alright I quit. I'm too casual, made it to level 2 with one hit left, died and there's no continue at all.
Nathan Young
You're not alone >only getting power drops when I'm at 1 HP for ages >eventually die B R A V O Galivan
No one said the gauntlet was easy user, I only ever made it to the Mega Drive when it was here before fucking Mega Turrican
Henry Wright
Game over #3
Elijah Rivera
FUCK. THIS. THING.
Samuel Robinson
looks like a guy giving you two fingers
Oliver Anderson
Yeah, i can see that
How fitting.
Brody Rivera
Game over #4
To the boss this time though, so i think it's justified.
Jace Cook
>i have to start from the worst stage in the game so far
Jack Barnes
>Touch door >die >can't crouch in this spot for some reason >can't jump back and have the time to crouch and hit the snake without dying >this is the first screen
Three days to complete the game you said ?
Michael Davis
>The game is not unbeatable, but requires the player to learn the timing of the game's enemies and obstacles through repetition. The game's poor controls, lack of checkpoints, and finite number of lives, however, make this nearly impossible and unplayable.
My condiments, user.
Jace Ward
Walk forward till the dragons pops up, go back to the very left, if the bat spawns just duck under it, and then pump the dragons face full of daggers.
Christopher Morgan
>finally kill snake >walk to door >forgot about crumbling bridge part >too late you died
WOOOOOOO
John Turner
Game over #5
Delay was because i posted And FUCK THIS LEVEL
John Hill
Forgot to add image
Jose Jackson
This is shit cause people reroll infa100%
Jace Sanchez
I got a pinball game. Do I reroll?
Ayden Foster
Got a game for hardcore players such as me
Kayden Allen
Fuck that level, atleast i made my way past it.
Evan Cox
Well, that victory was short lived...
Connor Sanders
The asspain is part of the experience so it's their loss
Does it have a high score already there? I'd say beating that counts.
Christopher Rodriguez
aww yes a gauntlet threa
i always loose
Blake Nguyen
How did Nintendo get away with this?
Luke Walker
am i fucked? its a kids game right?
Juan Flores
This game is way too hard bros, I don't think I can make it.
Aaron Flores
>Popeye's Lingo Game. Very nice.
Evan Morris
>Action 52 NO FUCKING WAY I REFUSE
>literal unbeatable meme game
Luke Bennett
I missed you. Weren't you chased off of Sup Forums? Or has this continued since then?
Jason Ortiz
>Shi Kin Jou >146 stages puzzle game
Yeah, no. Rerolling.
Charles Williams
Yay.
One question though, the game has two modes, and each mode has six different word categories. What counts as beating the game, just beating the two main modes once or do I have to beat the six word categories on each?
Nicholas Cruz
>characters waves his arms behind him during jumping animation >causes to expand the hitbox to the rear trap and then dies >jumping to close to the hole causes him to hit the ceilling way too soon then forcing him to land before the hole and then die
imagine being 5 and receiving this game for christmas
Bentley Wood
Yeah, yes. no savestates no guides 3 days play the game fagget
Oliver King
I've never heard of this game before, it better not be shit
Matthew Perry
Fair reroll if it's honestly unbeatable, even the gauntlet isn't that sadistic
It went to /vg/ and died. Looks like /vr/ took it in at some point but it's dead there too now
Both modes once would probably do but I'll leave it to your judgement.
Easton Morgan
HOLY FUCK WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DOING?? >Died twice in less than 3 minutes
Michael Morgan
>can't even damage the boss fug
That has to be the best name on the NES
Tyler Gray
Mega Man : Magical Girl Edition
I love MM and always wanted to beat this, now is the day
Food time, I'll be back later and start playing
Gabriel Cruz
AAAAH!
Brandon Wilson
it's hard as balls, it seems you have two attacks: A fan swing A circular projectile
The fan does ABSOLUTELY nothing, and all enemies take multiple hits to kill, and there's no hitstun so they'll just dash through your hits shit all over you
The goal is to get a bunch of ying-yang symbols but don't know how to get them to spawn.
Justin Campbell
EXPLAIN TO ME WHAT I CAN AND CAN'T WALK ON IN THIS SCREEM
Nathan Diaz
My first game is Power Blazer on NES. Let's do this.
Parker Hall
more snakes randomly spawning on the wall as our first boss, so much pain for this, at least I know the first two screens by heart now
Benjamin Cook
Avgn reviewed ita decade ago holy shithow old are you?
Juan Flores
Mode B beaten. It works basically like Game A, but they don't tell you the original Japanese word. Also, since it's a game for children even if you fail one of the puzzles they let you advance to the next, you can see here I failed 6 and 7.
I believe this is one of the first games to come out for the Famicom, even before Mario. It's ok for what it is.
Hunter Walker
I can't check on a guide. I got this and I kinda (maybe?) remember playing it back in the day. Does this have an ending or something? Or should I beat a particular score?
Brody Hall
>2006 >following e-celebs ISHYGDDT
Aiden Hughes
I've never really been a fan of youtube game reviews. So I haven't seen it.
Samuel Evans
Twelve hundred knives and he still wont go down
Joseph Cook
Fire n Ice. Sounds fun
Blake Lopez
Looks like it just loops around with increased difficulty, beat the high score if there's one already there
Anthony Rodriguez
Okay, this game is basically Mega Man, but you have a shitty short range boomerang instead. Enemies take forever to kill, I ran into an asshole with a boomerang and he had more range and took several hits, so unless you get upgrades for range you have to take damage, which is garbage. Seems like it could be fun though.
Isaiah Scott
LEVEL FOUR BABY I wonder how many stages there are
Daniel Gomez
ok so I died after throwing knives at this guy for 10minutes. I just noticed that despite being completely useless you have a lifebar that constantly depletes and doesn't refill between levels.
Fuck this shit life is too short to inflict aids on yourself like this
Nathan Campbell
Dropped down a ladder and landed on top of an enemy who promptly killed me, this game sucks.
Grayson Edwards
B-but I HATE BASEBALLLLL ;_;
Mason Gray
Okay fuck Power Blazer, this thing spawn enemies which lock on to me and move towards me ABOVE me. I can't shoot upwards and the thing moves sideways at nearly the same speed as I do so it's gonna hit me. Also the platforming is ridiculously tight, near pixel perfect jumps required at times.
Samuel Robinson
>use the last of my energy getting past a corridor and into a locked room >get an item that presumably opens up a teleporter in said room >needs energy to use and none of the respawned enemies are dropping any If I die and reset my exp before hitting level 4, I'm going to cry
Tank robot baseball vidya exists?
Tyler Williams
This looks interesting
Josiah Edwards
>Tank robot baseball vidya exists? Apparently. Also, how am I supposed to "complete" a sports game?
Eli Scott
gg ez
Caleb Scott
EIGHT LEVELS
I think there are infinite continues. I've only lost all of my lives once.
Nathaniel Richardson
Does it have a tournament to win or anything similar?
There's something called a "cyber league" but like literally everything in it is customizable like literally the number of games to the literal text of everything, even it being called a "cyber league" is customizable. This game is too muchhhhh
Robert Watson
Playing this on the original console cause fuck emulators
Daniel Perez
Never played it on SNES but Micro Machines was GOAT on NES.
Cameron White
Just got here and lost. Game's pretty fun but I don't know what anything does except for the rainbow flag (floating for one jump). I'll assume nothing gives me more time and it's all just score.
Jaxon White
God damn, I'm sucking at this game. Also homeruns can be seen from space.
Justin Ortiz
Hold on, wasn't this the first game Kojima worked on?
Cooper Rivera
I feel like the game is trying to give me a fucking seizure every time I kill a boss.
Josiah Price
>tfw 3 spaceships for grand slam
Jayden Smith
I'll check the credits (although the levels repeat supposedly, so I doubt there'll be any credits).
Zachary Myers
It's always the same. >oh this will be fun, I'll stick with it this time >roll a game >it sucks >okay I'll just reroll it's only the beginning anyway >nah that sounds boring >I've played that already >sounds gay >sounds stupid >nevermind
Adrian Phillips
THE ADVENTURE BEGINS
I'll be using a translated romhack of the Japanese version since I want to understand the story and still have the animated cutscenes
Ryan Sanchez
oh ok
Christian Watson
I just checked myself, his first game was the sequel of the one you're playing.
Michael Foster
So this plays a lot like Mega Man, but you start with all your powers
Here I'm using the ball spell to bounce projectiles to that enemy
Jordan Walker
And now it fucked up somehow. Can't tell if this is something with the rom or emulator or what but holy hell is the music annoying.
Jacob Fisher
alright
Lincoln Roberts
what the fuck? i cant go past this tree.
Levi Nelson
here we go
Grayson Taylor
the broom is rushjet
Leo Powell
Holy shit. When you tag a base and its too close to call, you have to fucking punch each other in the robot face to death!
