I don't think it's really meant to reference anything, it's just more funny because of the absurdity of the trap of having all your cash taken away from killing one seemingly innocuous creature.

Wondering if the Buffalax that donated during this is the same one who did all those "bad translation" music videos way back in the early days of KZbin? Big fan of their work (I'm the one who made the "BennyLavaPLZ" account on DeviantArt in honor of one of Buffalax's videos forever ago). They disappeared from YT, but the donation message said they are a 6-year cancer survivor... so the timeframe matches up. So anyways, even if it's not the same person, still... to either Buffalax, I hope you're doing well out there.

I owned the game back then, as a child, and still own it today. I actually enjoy Deadly towers more then I enjoyed Zelda or Metroid. Sure the sword sucks at first but just like any Zelda or Metroid there are upgrades. The sames goes with armor. There are more armors in the game besides the ones you find. Just as an example you can see them in the shop in this playthough. This game suffers from, 'The internet says its bad, so it must be true' mentality just like Duke Nukem Forever is a mediocre game that is just labeled by the internet as bad and everyone plays along.

Actually Metroid had more than a few "death pits". If you're playing through the game without maps, chances are you're not finding the Varia anytime soon (if ever, it was absolutely possible to go through the entire game without certain items purely because you couldnt find them) due to the seriously screwy location it's in. So falling in lava is really bad. You take incredible amounts of damage from it if you dont have the Varia, and your movement and jumping gets all screwed up, so you're probably dead (in some specific spots, you're probably dead even WITH the Varia). Even if you have a bunch of energy tanks. There's also the area near the ice beam in Brinstar, which is basically a trollish trap: break though the bridge on the left instead of the bridge on the right in the blue bubble passage, and you fall into a pit from which there is no escape. There's no platforms anywhere in it, it's very deep (like, three or four full screens), and full of monsters. Oh, you could maybe use bombs to boost yourself back out, but just ONE mistimed bomb jump would drop you all the way back, or you'd just crash into monsters on the way up. Not to mention all of the hidden walls throughout the entire game that you *must* find and break in order to get through the game, which have no visual indications that they are there. You're going to be shooting and bombing random blocks for a long, long time. There were also some sections with really, really questionable (bad) design in them. Like the nasty vertical section in Kraid's area. I've seen plenty of ragequits from that one section alone. Or even the fabled "fake Kraid", which made no sense whatsoever from a design standpoint. I think alot of people look back on NES games (particularly the early ones) with rose-tinted glasses, and they forget that LOTS of them were cryptic, weird, nonsensical, and had a general lack of hints, yet plenty of rather cheap moments. It was the norm back then. Alot of players also forget that when they went through something like Metroid the first time, chances are, they had a guide. I dont know *anyone* that played through Metroid back then without a map. And the original Zelda had it's own issues too. It wasnt as cryptic with important items, but it still had alot of problems (and it WAS still cryptic enough that many players got stuck for a long time in various areas). These older games are very, very subjective on how "good" or not they are. I still personally love them though. Even some games that many see as "bad", I often really like. But then, I'm used to them. Notice I'm also not using the "git gud" arguement here. Dont get me wrong, there was a higher level of skill required for most games back then than there is nowadays, but most players were totally used to that. It was just normal back then, so nobody really complained. The idea of "git gud" wasnt a very intimidating one like it is today and the average player's skill level was just outright higher (by alot) than it is nowadays. Taking time to practice in games back then wasnt something people shied away from.
