I play some of the old Star Wars NES game (badly).

My ongoing quest to get "good" at Beetlejuice on NES continues... For Part 1: CLICK HERE

My first attempt at the impossible: trying to complete the Beetlejuice NES game.

One of the NES games I hear the least about is Little Ninja Brothers , an action RPG developed by Nihon Game (aka Culture Brain), released in 1990 in North America. The sequel to Kung Fu Heroes (known as  Chinese Hero in the Arcade), took what made the original game so much fun and added RPG elements to it. While this kind of transition doesn't work for certain games, here it actually makes sense. You still jump around, punching and kicking your enemies in the same way except, this time, you find them in the wild and gain experience points as well as money when you defeat them. Those mini-fights become much more stressful when they pop up again before bosses. After levelling up, picking up all sorts of weapons and talismans in the towns you visit along the way, you enter various castles where you have three big fights with some of the most annoying enemies in the game before facing off against the main enemy, usually a witch or a sorcerer.

I play some M.C. Kids , the McDonald's game for the NES.

Time to give the Beetlejuice NES game another chance. It's showtime!

I play some classic Gauntlet . You've never seen such bravery.

I crawl through the last couple of tough bosses in this final chapter of my Castlevania playthrough.

A selection of my deaths at the hands of the Grim Reaper during my last Castlevania playthrough.

I finally get to the Stage 12 boss then talk Mario and Aladdin as I continue my playthrough of the original Castlevania . Nearly there...

And then it all went to s***... I realise the true meaning of being whipped as I tackle Stage 10 of Castlevania on NES. Expect foul language and lots of deaths.

I continue to play some classic Castlevania and encounter some new foes. Then I whip them in the face.

I get to the Medusa boss in Castlevania . Damn Medusa heads...

I start playing a true NES classic: Castlevania . Time to crack that whip good.

I try to play Super Pitfall and soon realise that the April Fool is, in fact, me. You can expect swearing in this one, lots of swearing.
