Did we already forget about Battletoads?

[–] Telodzrum@lemmy.world 26 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I beat Battletoads a ton when I was a kid, we never beat the Turtles game.

I beat both back in the day. I definitely feel like battletoads was the more difficult of the two.

Tbf, tons of nes and snes/Sega games were crazy hard. It hid how short they were. Like, Altered Beast is a game that no one ever beat on the Sega without using like a game genie. The entire game is only like 15 or 20 minutes long, though. Tmnt and battle battletoads were just super popular games you couldn't beat.

I think they were made to be quarter guzzling arcade games.

Altered Beast absolutely was. Some games never made it to arcades, though.

Battletoads has nothing on Ghosts 'n Goblins! I can at least play Battletoads until the stupid vehicle jumping section. I don't think I've ever even made it more than like 3 checkpoints into Ghosts 'n Goblins

Battle toads was truly the hardest game
