I beat The Karate Kid (NES) without dying! Played this very briefly as a kid, probably at a friend's house but really don't remember. Started playing it again about 4 days ago and OMG that kickback effect is killer, especially when you get caught between two enemies making you feel like you're in A Night at the Roxbury. I finally beat it tonight, twice actually. The first time I had died only once so gave it a few more tries and was able to do it without dying. Even after all my playthroughs, I was still never able to master the Swinging Hammer dodge.

I beat Pro Wrestling (NES) undefeated with Starman! This is not a game I owned as a kid but definitely played with friends. I was always fond of Starman as I loved his Somersault Kick and Flying Cross Chop. Never really tried to beat it on single player mode until a couple weeks ago and succeeded a couple days later. Then I discovered RetroAchievements.org and spent the next week trying to beat it again to get the achievements. Just succeeded today, but this video is of last week's playthrough. I found the easiest way to win a match is to trap your opponent outside the ring as the 20 count runs out. Have to be careful, though, as they can do the same to you!

I beat Fester's Quest (NES) with no continues! Never played this as a kid so my first experience with it started earlier this week. After seeing it in an AVGN episode and listed on Wikipedia's list of Nintendo Hard games I was expecting it to be more of a challenge. I suppose it would have been had I not used a turbo controller, but the instruction manual actually recommends doing so. Besides, I'm trying to have fun here, not get carpal tunnel. The most frustrating thing about the game is that it sends you back to the very beginning when you die. If you power up your gun and whip to the max as soon as possible, it's pretty easy to avoid getting killed. Then you just have to worry about the bosses. They all have fairly simple patterns making it easy to avoid their hits. The challenging part is figuring out when you can hit them back. I spent a lot of time on that shield guy before figuring out I could hit him in a sweet spot while his shield was still up.

I beat Bionic Commando (NES) with no continues! I loved this game as a kid! How could I not, getting to swing around on a bionic arm like Spider-man! It's one I owned so I've certainly beat it before but this is my first time beating it without using any continues. Not exactly a simple task! Did anyone else used to play this game?
