quick explanation of Mighty Bomb Jack's bomb rooms: In the final room of every stage you're trying to collect all the bombs and then leave via the gate. This is called a SAVE. Every one of these rooms also has a single lit bomb- if you collect the lit bomb last, you can warp directly to the next stage's bomb room. the catch is that if you die, you'll always be sent back to the last place you saved- which does not happen after a warp. Also, the game has multiple endings which depend on you achieving certain things in certain levels, which means you can't just warp to the end if you want the best ending.

Solomon’s key is an “S”. No questions asked. And I played this when I was 3 didn’t beat until I was 31. I was born in 86 and this was one of the 10 games I had. But my god, at my age now I would say this is in the top 3 hardest NES games of all time. And my dad, back in 89 got to level 21 and neither of us could believe it. Shows how much it takes to beat this game.

Tecmo Bowl is def S tier. I had a friend who kept stats in a notebook and played out seasons and playoffs and kept track of it all himself. Every Sunday night for dinner they had waffles with strawberries and whipped cream. Miss you Silas Simms! Rygar I got for Christmas with Mario 2 and T and C surf.

There's an absolutely insane looking new football (soccer) game coming out for Switch and Ps4 and Windows that's based on Captain Tsubasa. I've never heard of the anime but I'm definitely buying this game when it comes out because it looks so damn cool, I think it's the same deal as the NES one, a football RPG, but it has these crazy looking super moves, it's like Shaolin Soccer on steroids. It just seems like such a crazy and unique concept, take a real sport but make it _ANIME_ if you know what I mean, it's like Blitzball from Final Fantasy X but a real sport. Because the only other football action game we have for Switch is FIFA, and I hate FIFA, the PES series has always been and still is far superior. The best football game series in general is Football Manager but that's an entirely different sort of thing as you just watch matches play out, you don't control the players. And this Captain Tsubasa thing is another thing entirely to both those other styles of game. It's like football mixed with Dragonball Z Fighters. And it's being made by Bandai Namco and they always seem to make quality games, so yeah

Also, I hear you on Mighty Bombjack (it is a strange game in some ways) but it really is an enjoyable game the more you play it. It's one of those games where you just have to experiment a bit to understand the little nuances of the game. It's a good one though (possibly a B for me). And Fire 'n Ice is a very fun puzzle game but you are totally right, John! Members of Mensa HAD to be responsible for some of the later stages in that game (just like with the Lolo games which are equally difficult). It's pretty amazing how tough the puzzles could be. Anyway, I have rambled long enough. Great video man! Every one of them is truly a treat so please keep it up!

I wish I liked it more than I did. I rented it a ton and also played it on an emulator. In my opinion, what keeps it from being truly an S, is the knock back and the constant respawning. The fact that you have to deal with both of these difficulty tropes in the same game keeps this at an A. It does cheapen the experience. Still a fantastic NES game, but not an 'S', so very close though...

​@@kekeke8988 I get the reason why it's in there. My gaming is rooted in retro difficulty, trial and error, difficulty tactics to extend gameplay. I am simply saying the respawning is at a ridiculous level even for the time and this is combined with the knock back. I do agree that the game would be too easy since the devs decided to have your regular enemies go down in one slice. Regardless, this is why it just doesn't reach that S ranking.

The Wizard taught me how to pronounce "Ninja Gaiden." Remember that Riggs? The longest Nintendo commercial ever made and as a kid I loved it. I had Ninja Gaiden and it was one of the games that made me into the hard-core gamer I am today.

Fun fact about Mighty Bomb Jack. It was designed by a man who applied over a dozen times for a job at SEGA before accepting defeat and got a job at Tecmo where he proceeded to make a complete hash of the sequel to one of my favourite classic arcade games ever. What a hack. I can't find who it was but maybe he got better.

He gave it a B because she doesn't understand the game. There's SO much of that in his tier lists, it pervades nearly all of them. A tier, minimum. It's one of the best games on the console. It's a metroidvania before even Castlevania was.

Never cared for the sport itself but loved Bad News Baseball growing up, in Japan it was called Gekito! Stadium. I love Pro Wrestling too but I'd definitely put Tecmo World Wrestling as an S despite those quirks.

Tecmo World Wrestling drove me nuts with its blatant NBA Jam caliber cheating. So many times I'd have an opponent beat only to have them hit about 25 moves in a row, which I couldn't stop even with turbo. It was super fun with a friend though.

Ninja Gaiden 2 is one of my favorite games of all time, definitely an S in my book, but the others were too damn tough to be as enjoyable to me. I can beat NG2 without dying, with help of the shadow Ninja buddies (which is an awesome gameplay mechanic) but 1 & 3 are nigh impossible to me without cheating.

I remember Tecmo Cup Soccer Game. Very good in my opinion with the story about this game. It was originally called Captain Tsubasa in Japan cause of a popular Japanese soccer anime. It was brought into the US and they heavily Americanized the game, changing the character name and appearance.

There's an absolutely insane looking new football (soccer) game coming out for Switch and Ps4 and Windows that's based on Captain Tsubasa. I've never heard of the anime but I'm definitely buying this game when it comes out because it looks so damn cool, I think it's the same deal as the NES one, a football RPG, but it has these crazy looking super moves, it's like Shaolin Soccer on steroids. It just seems like such a crazy and unique concept, take a real sport but make it _ANIME_ if you know what I mean, it's like Blitzball from Final Fantasy X but a real sport. Because the only other football action game we have for Switch is FIFA, and I hate FIFA, the PES series has always been and still is far superior. The best football game series in general is Football Manager but that's an entirely different sort of thing as you just watch matches play out, you don't control the players. And this Captain Tsubasa thing is another thing entirely to both those other styles of game. It's like football mixed with Dragonball Z Fighters. And it's being made by Bandai Namco and they always seem to make quality games, so yeah

Tecmo Cup Soccer Game is an American version of Captain Tsubasa in Japan. The original game was quite popular in my country, because of an anime series back in the 90s. This was super fun. I would give an A.

Tecmo super bowl is my favorite nes game of all time. I love the eagles roster and playbook. This game broke barriers and really raised the bar. Is the arcade tecmo bowl as good? Maybe iircade could get that one.
