Time to play some video games, user!
Get an NES emulator. Any should be fine as long as it's accurate.
Go to: s3kr.it
Click on NES. Whatever game you get, you need to play from start to finish. You get three days to do it. No savestates allowed.
If your game has no defined goal, set a highscore and try to beat it. Ask other anons for advice on reasonable scores.
Post screenshots as you make your way through the game, but don't spam.
Good luck.

Hmmm this looks fun
Oh, man. Wizards & Warriors. If I remember correctly, those are tough fucking games. Good luck, user.
>japan exclusive
does the english romhack count
I'm in. Got some JRPG so hopefully it won't be too difficult.
Yes, as long as it doesn't change gameplay it's perfectly fine to play a translated romhack.
Also, if any of you get Shiren The Wanderer, I'm going to laugh my fucking ass off.
Panic Restaurant
I played this like three years ago
Shiren is on SNES though
This game has the worst fucking combat. All you do is walk into enemies and mash the attack button.
There are no animations, only high-pitched beeps when you hit them. Also, they hit you back seemingly at random and there is no way to predict or block this.
Guys, what the fuck?
Weird. I definitely remember Shiren being on the Famicom and showing up in the NES gauntlets years ago. Must have remembered it wrong then.
Keep at it
Oh god Hydlide
Game has encounters with multiple groups of enemies which you choose to fight TAOL style. You get treated to this screen when you win a fight.
OH JESUS THE STRETCHING

user, what the fuck?
>Robodemons
What am I in for?
Just left for work so I'll be doing this later.
Looked at some screenshots and it seems fun, like a Mario Bros if it had SNES mario bros graphics
Guys, what does the cross do? How do I do whatever it does?
This game is fucking insanely difficult. I'm dying constantly and I've only found two chests, one of which I can't open.
it's for praying to God to end your suffering
Lmao fucking user
I'm starting with PS1, because fuck you.
Sounds rad
Okay, so I found this little corner of the map where I got the cross. There's one slime that respawns here and you can sort of kite it around the tree and kill it from behind. To attack, you hold A and walk into enemies. That's it. But, if they're facing you they can attack and you die in 3 hits or something.
So, the only safe way to kill this piece of shit is to loop around the tree and buttfuck it, praying that it doesn't randomly change direction, which it fucking does.
The saving grace here is that your health regenerates pretty quickly when standing still. However, killing five of these fucks only gives you a couple of PIXELS of exp and I don't even know if the exp will do much to help.
I fucking hate it already.
>gauntlet's back
Noice, these are always a laugh
I got "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III The Manhattan Project". Just need to grab an emulator since this is a new computer
Press A THEN B for special attack, not A+B
>Adventures of Musashi
I'm off to work for two days, just clicked in hope of some "NES HARD" game, so I can shit on it within a day and brag about it to you fags. But an jrpg? Wew, might not be able to do it.
Thanks doc
>I got "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III The Manhattan Project"
>700+ games on the system
>About 90% are mediocre or downright shit
>Just casually rolls one of the best 5%
Fucking hate you, user.
skyrim again
Aw shit bois, its time for a fucking adventure
Focus on the exp bar. Look at this shit. How is this acceptable?
I'm too scared to go and explore, but this is taking so long. At least it has a save system.
this box art though
Cheers I'll keep that in mind
Hey, I've suffered in the past. Only NES roll I actually enjoyed was Clash at Demonhead the first time the gauntlet came about
>Hydlide
youtube.com
Enjoy your grinding and complete bullshit "boss" battles. Oh, and don't forget the fairies hidden in stupid places.
isn't this the game that zelda supposedly ripped off
>at least it has a save system
>he doesn't know
here we go bois
How hard could it be?
Never even heard of this game.
Enjoy your misery and confusion.
I remember something about needing to jump into an enemy bird to progress.
By rip off you mean improve in every single way.
What the fuck am I playing, this is nothing like the Pitfalls I played on the Atari and SNES
I'm just wandering around a vague maze filled with frogs, snakes ladders and bugs picking up gold bars
What the fuck am I doing?
>Enjoy your misery and confusion.
sounds about right so far
Okay, so I was grinding this respawning forest monster(you can't see it because the graphics are that bad) and I accidentally hit a wall that opened a secret path into this labyrinth. There's a treasure chest in there containing ''pot'', but these two squids or whatever they are are roaming the labyrinth.
It's basically Pac Man in there, but way worse. They keep respawning and blocking my path. If they touch me head on, I die immediately and if I try to attack them from behind, they just run off-screen.
Oh, also, my life constantly drains while in the labyrinth. I'm glad they added that fun gameplay mechanic to make the game better.
Am I in fucking Bowsers castle?
Oh shit. I did it. I got mad lucky and just sprinted. Made it out with literally a pixel of health left.
I also grinded the Kobold and leveled up so I'm now strong enough to take down the squid faggots in like three hits. I guess leveling IS important. That's really discouraging, because it means more grinding.
So, how are you all doing? Care to post an update on your progress?
I got Batman which seems goddamn radical, giving me a Ninja Gaiden vibe. But I'm incredibly tired and sleep beckons.
Damn you are lucky. Batman is a classic with great controls and that soundtrack.
You mean the fucking Sunsoft game? What the fuck, user? That's legit my favourite game on the NES. Arguably the best licensed game of its time. One of the best soundtracks in vidya history too.
Enjoy that shit. Keep in mind the controls can be a bit stiff. Jumping has a short delay where he squats and there is no aerial control. You'll have to get used to that and make sure to learn how to control your jumping height.
The game can get pretty tough later on, but it's not very long. The boomerang is fucking broken, so if you ever get stuck on a boss, try spamming it.
I know, right? I was only really familiar with it from seeing it on AVGN but it feels remarkably solid for a licensed game.
Oh god no
Considering loading up the NES rom on my SNES classic mini and playing through it that way, but I suppose screenshots of my tv for updates on progress arent the best idea
This game fucking sucks.
I found 2 spade things that appeared randomly and I'm not sure what they did, I'm also not sure what I'm even supposed to be doing
Naw, man. Do it. Go for the genuine experience.
I'm so sorry you got Super Pitfall. It's one of the worst games. Not just the NES. Just worst games period.
It's extremely cryptic. You genuinely have to start jumping into every corner of the map to see if something appears. That's it. Collect everything you see and jump in random locations.
>Phoenix Gao's Adventure
What the fuck is this? I might look into it when I get off work later
Batman in general had great licensed games for the most part back in the day.
>Sega Adventures of Batman and Robin is an amazing but hard run 'n gun with 10/10 bossfights and insane Jesper Kyd soundtrack.
>Got to level 3
>just found out you can transform into a dragon
Oh nice, its glitchy too, I just had it softlock on me.
This is going to be a long fucking night
Well. This quite the opening screen.
you cannot even follow simple instructions. what a fucking retard
Have to pretty much be touching the edge of the screen to get it to scroll.
I can't believe I'm actually making some progress here. I managed to find a castle with a cave right next to it. Maybe it's supposed to be the castle entrance?
Either way, inside were a bunch of bats and this Dracula looking motherfucker that one-shots me.
I actually managed to cheese him out by reloading and waiting for him to start walking away, then going up behind him. Seems that's a recurring theme.
A chest appeared and I got a lamp! I've found two caves where it was too dark to see, so I'm guessing I should head to either of those next.
>I actually managed to cheese him out by reloading and waiting for him to start walking away, then going up behind him. Seems that's a recurring theme.
That's the intended way of beating him, and it only works if you have the cross.
lets do this
welp, it soft locked on me again
Are there any rerolls in the Sup Forums gauntlet? I don't know if I have it in me to play all the way to the end of this
This room is fucking stupid. It's not difficult, it's just fucking stupid. I have to get through these flame guys and they can go through walls. If they catch me anywhere besides front, I'm dead instantly. If more than one of them goes up against me, I'm dead instantly.
The chest contains a sword, which I don't know how it will help, but whatever. I've gotten to the chest a couple of times, but getting back is the hard part. Also, these rooms drain your health, so you're never safe. You can't really wait them out very well, because they move around constantly and you're always taking damage.
If it's soft locking on you I'm sure it's fine to reroll.
>Make it to treasure chest flawlessly
>The fuckers gang up on me right before the exit
I'm fucking angry.
Oh boy
>Zen Intergalactic Ninja
Where the fuck has this been all my life
Will try it after school
Alright, fuck it. Gonna reroll.
Lets get this mess started
Will probably change the borders while I am it
you should watch the AVGN episode on this game it's pretty funny
Press F, everyone.
Yooo, this game sounds fucking rad
game is hard but fair, super fun, great controls
ENJOY THAT MUSIC!
I dont know moonspeak so this is going to be hard
God Speed user
Why the fuck did they hire the composer from Crazy Bus
o k
>Equipment does jack shit
I'm in for a fun time.
I'm stuck right away
Everything takes forever to kill, but not gonna lie the music is pretty damn good, although I have a feeling sunsoft reused it from some other game of theirs
That works, I kinda wanted to try out the might and magic games anyway
>Music is pretty good
That's because the composer is a god. Composed for other Sunsoft titles like the aforementioned Batman: The Video Game, Blaster Master and my personal favourite, Journey to Silius.
youtu.be
Listen to this shit. If you don't think that's the tightest shit, you can fuck right outta here.
You win, Sup Forums. Fuck this shit.
Should have posted this on a Friday. I barely have time to play during the week
Got airwolf. Looks fun.
It looks like that game has been translated
romhacking.net
I've actually never played any ultima game so I've got no idea what to expect
These frogs just never stop fucking coming, also I managed to make the music stop by pausing and unpausing the game, so that sucks
Aaaahh! I fucking made it. Finally. Got the sword, made it out in one piece.
So, guess what? I have spells. I didn't know this, but apparently you get spells when levelling up. You scroll through them with B and then you have to hold A and press B to use them. It's kind of awkward. First one is called Turn. All it does is freeze the game for a while and make the enemies turn around. Pretty useful in tight corners. Wish I knew about that when dealing with the flames.
Second spell is fire. It shoots a fireball.
I made it through another cave and got to these sand snakes. They one-hit as well. Like, I can't even hit them back. I touch them and I die. I'm fucking scared.
Stage 4
1 life
no continues
Sup Forums, I think I'm bad at this game
comfy no manual gaming
Hey, user. You wanna know a secret?
The Konami code lets you level select.
Don't tell anyone!
So, this staircase is absolutely pointless and only leads to the other staircase briefly to the right.
Atleast I figured out how gun upgrades work, and also found out that getting hit by bees/wasps/whateverthefuck makes you slow as a tank until you die
Currently 4 death in, but atleast I am figuring out dead ends on the map that I should not bother going down
This game is a million times better than Super Pitfall already.
It doesn't look and play like dogshit, and they actually tell me what I'm supposed to be doing at the start of the game, just made it to my first teleporter
>Only 4 deaths
Damn. I'm actually impressed. Fester's Quest is a brutal game.
Man it's been ages since i've seen this thread. Is it still a /vr/ thing?
El lagarto oscuro...
To be fair I am only now figuring out the way out of the starting area, considering the others paths are dead ends.
Hey! I found the Earrape Dragon! Seriously, the sounds it makes fucking hurt. But, I'm stuck in the fucking river and can't reach it.
I'm really confused how the world works. It seems to loop around if you head in one direction, but certain areas are like the Lost Woods and loop in some directions anyway.
Also, this water drains your health like crazy and there are deadly water snakes lurking around. I haven't found any way to get out of it once you're in(you enter through a hole next to a castle) so I'm not sure what the hell the point is. There is nothing in here.
