I'm glad you've finally included the Arcade Archive version, which is the something I wasn't able to see in GHS's Let's Compare videos these days.

[@retrosutra]

It was a pleasure to make your request.

[@mastersproutgamer9327]

@@retrosutra It sure was. However, one thing I must point out is that the letter "C" in "Climber" wasn't capitalized.

[@retrosutra]

@@mastersproutgamer9327 Fixed! Thank you

[@mastersproutgamer9327]

@@retrosutra You're welcome.

Every version that have a bird with bloody diarrhea is a good version. Famicom is also good.

[@traumatizedgeworth]

that's because crazy kong uses modified crazy climber hardware

[@baroncalamityplus]

I played a ton of the 2600 version back in the day.

[@davidmateoarredondobojorqu2357]

Hello retrosutra all the versions are beautiful

[@kenwheeler3637]

I played the hell out of CC in one of my local arcades in the 80's. It's sad the was so underrepresented as far as ports here in the US. Your game play is quite impressive. I've never been able to dodge out of the way so easily from all of the falling objects and climb so fast. One thing though is that I wish you would have shown the fact that you can survive being hit by most falling objects as long as both hands are firmly holding a space in an open window. People not familiar with the game might think the game looks far too difficult assuming that all items must be avoided.

[@retrosutra]

I almost didn't make the video due to the weird and difficult control, but after many many tries I got the hang of it. Regarding the feature that you mention, you are right. I thought about it when I already had everything captured. It took me so long to do some versions so for the sake of my sanity I decided not to repeat them.

[@michelmoroni9865]

The Famicom version features warp pipes from the Mario franchise.

[@DrJ3RK8]

There was a rip-off of CC on the C64 called Squish-Em. Loved that game!

[@rempire380]

Thanks for this, really appreciate it!

[@ecernosoft3096]

The Arcadia version makes the 2600 version look so much better. Edit: WHAT WERE THEY THINKING WITH THAT APPLE 2 VERSION?!?!

[@WakandaForever1776]

Now show us the controller you used to play these ;) They need to come out with an actual arcade game with every version on here so it actually feels like playing because you need two joysticks like Robotron

[@davidthecommenter]

bro why the NES version more detailed than the arcade

[@AnimationMaster167]

I was interested in that game, but the problem is, I suck at playing this game. Still, I quite like this game.

[@retrosutra]

The game is difficult until you get used to its strange control.

[@AnimationMaster167]

Yeah, that's true.

[@Scratchman2501]

Arcade: don't have anything to say about it; it's the arcade version. PC-80: doesn't even look like a finished game. Where did the helicopter go? Bandai Handheld: somewhat interesting LCD conversion. Arcadia 2001: this is a simplistic and barebones port. Atari 2600: dang, if that death animation isn't filled with adrenaline, I'm gonna be slightly confused. Apple II: dude, are we climbing on a Coke building of the dead?! Famicom: Crazy Climber, definitive edition. Sharp X68000: pretty close to the arcade version. Wonderswan: despite the lack of color, close enough to the arcade version. GBC: looked like it was going somewhere, but still rough around the edges. Bally Astrocade: considering the year, I bet this game was graphically designed like this on purpose. ColecoVision: interesting. Pretty interesting. I'm not going to do the rest, as they are just in game collections, or are too similar to the arcade.

[@adammorrison9705]

The Famicom version is crazy good looking! The opening was epic. Does anyone know if it was on the base Famicom, or if there was a FDS version as well?

[@CatalinaMaxCisternasJofre]

The American Arcade version's sounds are so weird and saturated.

[@fradd182]

Very early arcade, obviously ported on many obscure systems ive never heard of. As for versions i do care about, have to say that Apple II version is disappointing.

[@JustWasted3HoursHere]

I wonder how many of these conversions, especially for old systems, used two controllers for the arcade authentic feel. Games like this and Robotron and BattleZone and such were at a disadvantage in many of these older systems because of the two controller issue, but a lot of them made due with what they had.

[@eminboztepe]

The Atari 2600 version used both joysticks.

[@JustWasted3HoursHere]

@@eminboztepeInteresting. I wonder if it came with a bracket to hold both sticks at once. Otherwise might be a real challenge to play!

[@RoyKaBob]

It did not... I play it in cart form today. 1 joystick. @@eminboztepe

[@michelmoroni9865]

This arcade version re-uses the “Hi-yah!” Sound effect from Crazy Kong.

[@aniluaces149]

Crazy kong came after the JP arcade…

[@Hijiri_MIRACHION]

​@@aniluaces149Actually, the game itself even predates the original Donkey Kong by about a year. Of course Crazy Kong came after it.

This is the 80s edition of GIRP

[@ShanetheFreestyler]

I had no idea there where so many different ports! I knew of the VCS version, which is rare because it was only available through Atari Club, (and in my opinion one of the weakest since it mapped both arms to a single joystick, cutting your climbing speed in half.) And the Famicom version was one of my favorites due to it having a puzzle element with hidden medals and an advanced course available for finding them all. But there was a version for the Apple ][!? And how does the GBC version work with just one Dpad and two buttons? Then there's the homebrew ports for Astrocade and Colecovision. I wanna see someone make more ports to platforms CC should've been released on, like the Commodore 64, Atari 8-Bit Family, ZX Spectrum, MS DOS (Maybe 8088 or Tandy), Intelevision, Atari 7800, SG-1000, the list goes on! Someone out there who knows how to code on these platforms, GO FOR IT!

[@Lofote]

Probably the only game where the C64 version does not dominate all other plattforms... ...because there is no C64 port available :-D

@@fernandomenendezsalvador3972 muchas gracias. Generalmente sólo incluyo versiones oficiales en los vídeos, aunque aquí hice una excepción. Resulta muy difícil estar al tanto de todos los homebrews, clones, etc. Si algún día hago un vídeo dedicado a esas versiones, seguro que añadiré las de MSX. Además, amo ese sistema porque lo jugaba mucho de pequeño (y aún lo conservo, por cierto). Fue el primer ordenador al que jugué en mi vida...
