Episode 54
Clash at Demonhead is the ultimate cult classic game for the NES. It features a large open world with light Metroidvania elements, and is an impressive early entry to the Nintendo's library.
The game was developed by Vic Tokai, a Japanese cable television provider! They made a handful of games for the NES, and Clash at Demonhead was one of their most ambitious.
So how did this game make it to North America? In today's episode we'll find out, then we'll dive deep into the gameplay where we'll learn:
* Mysterious PASSWORDS with strange effects on the game!
* How to get TONS OF CASH right at the game's beginning!
* How to max out your health FAST!
* The SECRET to gaining INFINITE MONEY!
* What EVERY ITEM AND UPGRADE does!
* How to covert GOLD BARS into CASH!
* The fast way to unlock ALL 5 HERMIT POWERS!
* Where to FIND Joe and Mary!
* How to get through ALL 42 Routes, including the OPTIONAL ones!
* Strategies for defeating EVERY BOSS, even the leader of the enemy himself... AND MORE!
ADDITIONAL NOTES: A few commenters pointed out that if you keep leaving the screen and coming back to talk to joe on route 32, he'll eventually turn to bones and give you some items.
Also, on Route 42 LEFT if you keep trying to pass the troll he'll eventually give up, but you'll take a bunch of damage. Still, it can be done. I can confirm that all of this is true.
Thanks to Kasey Brown and Blaximum for commenting.

This and Crystalis are the 2 NES games that I always end up playing again because of nostalgia with my mother...We gamed the hell out of these 2 games lol... Beating them both together is one of my fondest and most memorable moments of childhood!

[@derekazyan9942]

Good taste

[@scottydu81]

I wish I could have gamed with my parents. My mom is blind, and my dad was the epitome of “Are ya winnin, son?” He was clueless about gaming lol

[@natural2112science]

I really love your channel. I am at home with a concussion right now and can't take anything else. The non-seriousness topics, nostalgia, and the calm voice is really making my day. Thank you!

[@tigerofdoom]

The relatively calm and even voice over really does make a difference. It's hard to listen to the fake excitement saturation in certain video game channels for very long. Certainly not 90 mintues worth

[@UNIRockLIVE]

Hope u feel better

[@carlrygwelski586]

Heyy have a speedy recovery 😎

[@OverdriveGamesAnime]

This is a dream. Wake up

[@wbl_unlimited]

Protip: When you meet Joe on Route 32, after talking to him, you can leave the room, come back to him, and talk to him again. You can do this several times, and eventually HE WILL DIE. And when you talk to his skeleton, you'll get a bunch of items. So there's that. Awesome work, amazing guide, I love it!

[@Koden]

I never was able to figure out as a kid what happened if you didn't let Joe die.

[@fench1234567]

Game trivia for Clash at Demonhead: Swimming on top of the water doesnt hurt you, but submerging (or even just splashing down into the water) will. Being underwater is what hurts you, even for just an instant.

[@frozenburst6463]

So Bang just hates getting water in his nose.

[@TheHeroExodus]

Not being able to hold ones breath is an actual thing some people have, realism?

[@fallouthirteen]

Yeah, it's like by frame too. So the few frames you dip below when you jump in will do a bit of damage. Also a thing that's really worth practicing is jumping right when you come into contact with the water's surface to jump off it before you get submerged.

[@fench1234567]

@@fallouthirteen Jumping on the water can be done by turbo controller, too... a little awkward, though. :)

[@GarthTheDestroyer]

@@fench1234567 But jumping on lava without a supersuit.... that's just fun to do.

[@LordSephleon]

YES! Was hoping you'd play this soon! I have oddly fond memories of this game, despite never having completed it. I was woefully unprepared for it as a young 7 or 8 year old gamer (though I did get close to the end), and I never got back to it as an adult despite clearly remembering it.

[@co81385]

This game IS pretty deep, and a bit cryptic, for an NES game. I had received this game as a Christmas gift when I was younger, but I don't think that I understood what I was supposed to do until I found either a Nintendo Power, EGM, of GamePro or something, that told you how to find the hermit, how to get the sword, and who all of the bosses were.

[@ichigokarasu]

I was around the same age, and yeah, it was definitely a more complicated experience than most games back then. I remember wandering around a whole lot, but having to find the right routes to traverse to engage the bosses to get powers to get to other areas, was a little over my 7 year-old head, haha.

[@Datenshi-Beats]

@@ichigokarasu I don't think this applies only for 7yo kids. This game is cryptic just as Zelda II and Simon's Quest. Somehow I thought it was worth beating though so used this video guide. I'm conflicted in giving a rating when a game mostly can't guide you.

[@Datenshi-Beats]

Hey man coolass Cecil profile. I love retro games, hard to relate to others around my age when it comes to 80-90s games, being a late 90s kid of course shouldn't make sense, but I simply rather enjoy learning about what came before.

[@LordSephleon]

@@Datenshi-Beats Hey, thanks for the compliment! FF4 is my favorite game of the series (though I do recognize it isn't objectively the best), and Cecil has always been my favorite main hero because I sympathize with his duality. Yeah, this game was definitely beyond me, and I was a perfectionist little kid when it came to video games since they were my passion. It's just like how I couldn't beat some games when they first released, but returning to them over the course of a few years usually was enough to put me over the edge: Blaster Master was one such game. I just never managed to beat this particular game despite getting pretty far even with time being on my side since I started focusing on newer games.

[@TwilightPrince123]

I just found this channel, and as a 37-year-old who grew up in the days of the NES, seeing someone so dedicated to show how to play and beat these games is quite a treat~ If there is one NES game I'd love to see you do a guide on, it's Ultima: Quest of the Avatar on NES.

[@downscale]

Welcome to the Fan Club! This great Dog, and his human that puts the cartridge in for them, are the greatest Gamers on KZbin!

[@LeMayJoseph]

I'd like to see Solstice and The Magic of Scheherezade!

[@heroinmom153]

[@kraylthunderhorn7891]

I've been hoping for this one for a long time! Your videos are such a great way to relive childhood memories of playing the ol' NES. It's like transporting back 31 years to a saturday morning after renting Clash at Demonhead from the local video store. It's 1990, I just finished all the Saturday morning cartoons... ate some fruity pebbles, and now it's time for an afternoon of NES gaming.... if I can get the cartridge clean enough to play (blows on it)

[@UCanBeatVideoGames]

Thanks Krayl!

[@robertlawrence9000]

This game deserves a remaster/remake. It would be cool to have the old version and a new art style version that looks like the actual box art characters with a kick ass soundtrack in a new release. It has an awesome premise to it!

[@biz0unc3]

One of the few games I feel I fully figured out by myself as a kid. This game was super fun to explore and seemed so big back in 89.

[@danofthedead3345]

I had the opposite experience. I'd rent it every now and then because it looked so cool, but I never got very far. Still loved it.

[@biz0unc3]

@@danofthedead3345 I rented it too, until I met a guy at school who had it. We ended up doing some trades for it.

[@JacobLucasSorenson]

Sure

[@fallouthirteen]

Yeah, still have my map I traced from the screen (and put route notes on so I knew where to go when they said "I'll be waiting on route X").

[@andrewjurgens7446]

What's crazy is that modern generations will never understand the mystery behind these games back then. No internet, little magazine coverage for most games, and not much more than back cover artwork to learn from. Sometimes you didn't even have instructions from rental stores. But oh man...those were the best summers of our lives...playing outside, riding bikes, swimming at the pool, and long weekends with buddies trying to beat and/or just understand games like this. No endless choices of games to download or stream. No loot box garbage or pay to win. Just pure exploration and seeking out tips from kids on the bus or study hall😆

[@raym1477]

Great choice! A really underrated and overlooked gem.

[@raym1477]

@kingizo he already did that one a while back

[@GLASSGHOSTHUNTERS]

This game was so much fun! I remember messing up on the bomb code sequence and freaking out because I thought that was how the game was supposed to end. This is my most favorite NES game! Such amazing colors, weapon design, enemy variety and bosses. The music was also terrific! Just a beautiful game!

[@ClassicTVMan1981X]

The best trick is to use up your first chance by just hitting the B button to see if the six medallions will go into their slots, without moving the cursor. On your second chance, move your cursor to the second slot and repeat. On your third chance, move the cursor to the third slot, and repeat. And so on...

[@DietBajaBlast]

The music is terrible!

[@totalpartykill999]

Vic Tokai was one of those labels that did alot with crappy pixel resources, which i actually found charming. the gameplay of Vic games is spot on. Golgo 13 (the first one) and this game were my jams back in the day. (yes, i was around for the release of the NES...)

[@dorpth]

I'll go on record saying this was the single most underrated game in the entire NES library. I'll even be a heretic and say that not only was it a mix of Bionic Commando, Metroid, and Metal Gear, but that it was better than all of them!

[@Ricky_Evans1611]

Yeah this was my 3rd favorite game on the NES, right behind Crystalis and Faxanadu.

[@stevenkunkle3857]

Every few years I forget the name and search it back up but this is always my favorite Nintendo game

[@aaronmarlowe623]

I love Clash at Demonhead this is one of the best underrated games ever! Thank you for doing this man, great job!!!

[@ben2972]

LOVE that you did this game (and love all your content). One of my all time favorites. Route 31 doesn't *feel* optional when you're playing for the first time. You've been told your girlfriend has been captured and you're going to rescue her. I remember *clearly* when I arrived and she started shooting at me - I didn't shoot back because I figured it was some kind of mind control situation going on. I died. So......is it *literally* optional Sure. But you don't know it unless you've already been through it. :)

[@adamswain8186]

Yes and you don’t know they do not have a medallion.

[@virgiltibbs1820]

Loved this game. I also have always thought Tom Guycott is a hilarious name

[@malkmut2189]

This has got to be the best-written game on the NES. So funny and energetic -- could be released as is today. I mean, the main bad guy's name is Tom Guycot and he gets killed 30 minutes in.

[@xxHUNGRY4THETRUTHxx]

Anyone here familiar with Cornshaq Gaming? I was a subscriber. Don't know what happened to him or his channel. Well, it seams YCBVG has done more than pick up from his reigns. Corn had used Clash @ Demonhead as his theme. That's why I'm just asking.

[@kristophsams5036]

This game was fun. My biggest gripe with the IGN Top 100 is who thought those were the best the NES had to offer? I mean even in the 80s this game was extremely popular with people I knew. I don't know. Some of their listings are questionable.

[@themusicholecole]

I'm going through a real tough time in my life right now so thank you for helping me get through it.

[@senseicorey9979]

"If you're going through hell, keep going "

[@mustardseed]

Nice, can't wait to finally complete this one myself, it was up there with Legacy of the Wizard on games I really wanted to beat but struggled to find a good guide for, really appreciate you helping me through both of those now.

[@ElecManEXE]

Same two games I had and could never get anywhere on for me as well, hah. Got both without manuals second hand and had no clue.

[@Youmama187]

This is the walk through we have all wanted, and NEEDED!

[@gmphalanx580]

Fun fact: If you keep going back to the room where you find Joe on Route 32 and talk to him, his condition gets worse and worse until hes a talking skeleton, he also gives you one of every item for exhausting his dialogue.

[@Questorps7]

Yep, and if you talk to him the last time, he refills your health.

[@JoshuaGanoTyraxLightning]

So much for him being saved. :P

[@brunoramos9747]

Did you notice on the map right by the desert where the triangle is there looks like there is a UFO there

[@lessthankate]

Oh hellz yeah. This one screams for a complete and thorough guide, the game is so weird. Vic Tokai's output was almost as weird as Data East's work.

[@stgm]

Hey, this is where the band from Scott Pilgrim got their name.

[@metaltom2003]

[@justinfrehs3053]

I loved this game. Crazy nostalgic watching this video. Haven’t seen or heard of this game since the summer of 1990 when I used to go visit my mom in St. Louis and would rent it at the store there. Only place i ever saw that had this game. (Was a grocery store that had a movie/game rental section. (which was very common back then)

[@derekwischmann6123]

Your NES content is so friggin’ cool! Great Video! Keep ‘em coming!

[@americanmeowth3336]

Excellent video, with just the right amount of humor throughout. It would appear that "Guycott" would be a stylish romanization of a slightly academic Japanese word for "skeleton", meaning the whole joke is on par with saying "Tom Skellington" in English. The "start with everything" password basically translates to "a genius remembers what is forgotten" or "a genius remembers what they forgot", which makes sense if you've beaten the game already and just want to get some revenge with a full suite of items. This is another one of those NES games that has a lot of seeds of more modern games, that just needed a little cooking time or stronger hardware to reach its full potential. Expressive sprites and animation, a storyline with a few surprises here and there, and an offbeat sense of humor throughout. As always, great work!

[@Bjorick]

Wait - the game char says 'i'm getting a message in my head again' when he reads a note at 43:10 - so...is the main character a moron? He's clearing reading but his words are basically, 'someone is teleporting a message into his brain' - kinda funny

[@gordie1233]

Your channel relaxes and calms me. Brings back a lot of old gaming memories. Kudos.

[@Questorps7]

Love the videos. Not sure if anyone has noted this yet, but you can defeat the purple monster that’s blocking the way up the mountain on the left side of Route 42. You have to time it right, but you can shoot the monster just before it jumps to make the mountain shake. Hit it a few times and it will explode. Even better, it won’t respawn, so you’ll never be blocked from going up that side of the mountain again.

[@alkristopher]

Some video game villains strike fear into the hearts of heroes with just a name. Ganon. Luca Blight. Shao Khan. Count Dracula. BOPPER. ...Okay, maybe not that last one.

[@Louie_The_Dago]

I never heard of this game ever in 40 years. And it makes zero sense watchin him play it, so ill assume bad translation. Theres such a thing as too japanese. Lets not forget, these people used to eat WW2 POW's. As in cannibalism.

[@Kyosukedono]

Never heard of this game, back in the 80's and 90's looks like a pretty chill game. I mean, game where Ron Jeremy sells you weapons and jetpack? Fucking boss man.

I've loved all these vids and I use them on my Nintendo mini....next game on my list...time to beat clash at demonhead

[@DefendYoungstown]

It's not that you take damage from *touching* water, it's that every time Bang's head submerges - which happens from momentum when you fall/jump into water as well as purposely diving while swimming - he takes "drowning" damage. Swimming across with your head above water doesn't count.

[@Fenrir6Gaming]

you mentioned the Audubon Society, its named for John James Audubon, he was a big deal in my home town, we have a state park and museum named after him, he also had a river mill here.

[@daveh8447]

Your dog is all tired from going all them roots in this game. I've binge-watch these when I get a chance brother thank you very much.

[@ClutterTrot]

1:00:22 Um... no. Joe is never actually rescued. If you go back there a few times, he actually dies and you loot his corpse.

[@techmonkie2199]

how do we make suggestions for other games to be added to the list? I'd love to see The Guardian Legend done as an option. Very open-ended MetroidVania esque sci-fi game that switches between spaceship stages and top-down open-world exploration.

[@wizzardgame8343]

you just made a suggestion

[@zachariahscott6648]

This game did not really have as much of a cheesey ending as some other N.E.S games, and it had a pretty rocking soundtrack to boot too!

[@matthewloera3792]

Awesome job this game gave me anxiety on where to go and what to do as a kid lol. Maybe try the Guardian Legend 🤔 next… thanks and keep it up

[@ZaerdinGaming]

All I could think about was how this looks so much like Goku's lost teenage years.

[@hannes8835]

Amazing how much they fit into that little NES cartridge. This game is very complex with all the dialogs and different suits, routes, faces and expressions.

[@suicidebxmber1234]

I'd just like to point out a misconception, Bang doesn't take damage from swimming, he takes damage from being underwater. Every time you fall in the water you take damage (since you submerge for a few moments), so it's a bad idea to be constantly jumping out of the water.

[@adamswain8186]

YES that's correct.

[@abysscallstoabyss55]

Another classic marked off the list! Excellent! ☕️😎👌

For anyone wondering, the joke with the guy's name is that his name is a pun on the word 'skull' in japanese.

So when you go down and see your buddy Joe.... if you leave and come back he deteriorates. Each time he is worse and worse until he becomes a skeleton, but I think he still talks to you. I want to say that you get something from him.

[@UCanBeatVideoGames]

yeah, you have to keep entering and leaving the screen - weird

[@DaveFu]

When you move on to the 16-Bit games, save Kid Chameleon for when you really want to punish yourself. C@D is definitely one of the better NES games that got lost in the shuffle and released too late to get its due in it's time. I still remember getting the good ending the first time I beat it and feeling like a moron because I got the bad one the second time through as a kid.

[@brinklebros7136]

was waiting for you to make the scott pilgrim reference.

[@PabstOban]

I really love and appreciate these videos. Many of these games I played, but never finished. Largely because we didn't have guides or videos to watch to help us three, and if a game wasn't covered in Nintendo Power, you wouldn't get much help until the GameFAQs age and even then it would just give you a "what to do next" and not so much "this is how you can beat this boss or make this next part easier". Anyway, I'm grateful for the videos, and I am impressed at your pace of putting them out. Keep the hits coming! I remember seeing this game in Wish Books and at Toys R Us on their wall of NES Coupons and boxart... but the cool name and the interesting box art wasn't enough for me or my friends at the time to risk getting a game that nobody knew about and wasn't willing to take the risk of that ONE Game you got being a terrible one (that was the WORST... you'd have this game nobody wanted to trade with you and you had to pretend was AWESOME just to get someone's Mega Man 2 or Faxanadu).

[@Ismcant]

The music and graphics for this game are top tier for NES

[@numismaticstacker]

I love your channel but Im not liking this game. I hate the music and gameplay. Ive enjoyed many other of your videos but I have lost interest in this game. Not satisfying at all, maybe try megaman 4, dragon spirit, shadow of the ninja, dragon warrior 4, super mario lost levels, castlevania 3, or batman

[@stevenvandevort781]

Thanks to this game and River City Ransom I fell in love with anime before I even knew what anime was. The non linear nature made me love open world games. The weird little secrets just made me love the game itself. Truly deserved a sequel

[@fallouthirteen]

Yeah, it was this, both Zelda games and River City Ransom for my favorite NES games.

[@Lastjustice]

Yeah you will probably find Gazh before most of the other bosses. I kill him , just farmed a bunch of cash in order to win. Buying a few super suits lets you outlast most of the bosses.

[@Spazilton1]

I played this game OVER and OVER back in the early 90s. I never beat it though. I would love to play a remake/remaster of this forgotten gem.

[@ClassicTVMan1981X]

It's when you get to the very last part of putting the medallions in the Doomsday Bomb that will really test your patience. You have to do it correctly, and you are given six chances at it. Each chance that you use up, the timer will gradually count down faster. A trick is to try to insert all six medallions in their starting positions without pressing your D-pad, in the hopes that at least one of them will go into the slots. Then, move your D-pad one position right and repeat the process. If you fail to defuse the Doomsday Bomb (whether using up all six of your chances, or time expiring) you will get the bad ending. But if you manage to defuse it, the alien who greeted you before the room to the Doomsday Bomb will speak to you for the last time (telepathically), and then Bang goes to meet the Hermit and then his friends Mary and the Commander on top of Mount Demonhead. Once there, the Commander will tell Bang that the real Professor Plum managed to escape, and that Bang had dealt with a fake version.

[@ClassicTVMan1981X]

Route 13 is sort of superstitious, since you can only enter/exit it one way. This is even mentioned in the game's instruction book. Even though there are two ways to get here, the portion of the area with the right exit is locked out when you get to the middle part going leftward, as you can't get to the right exit if you enter this route from the left.

[@strayferal]

Psycho Fox for Master System was actually real good. I disliked it because it made me dizzy a bit, but my cousins adored it.

[@jasonmiller3543]

My friend and I spent so much time playing this as a kid. We figured out everything except how to diffuse the bomb. We never used the password system and played through the entire game every time just for another shot at the bomb. About 3 years ago I picked up the game again and finally, after 30 years, I finally beat this game. Still one of my top 10 NES games.
