Ninja Gaiden (NES) speedrun in

[@Peter_Morris]

Man if I’d seen a run like this in 1990, I wouldn’t have believed it was a human. Just incredible!

[@pbrninja19]

Dear Arcus, we know you will retake the top slot. You can definitely do it.

[@Walczyk]

i think he’s toast

[@-12Sided]

@@WalczykYe of little faith

[@jorymil]

Arcus is the Babe Ruth of this game.

[@KornPop96]

Idk. Retro Runner is pretty good.

[@Jukeboxster]

@@KornPop96 retrorunner thinks Arcus can go a lot lower. he's rooting for him

[@rentoptional1524]

Good klunks, bleeps, bloops, and bzzzts. Great job!

[@destructionman1]

Getting good bleeps and bloops, not just one or the other

[@DJJustJayOK]

Ninja Gaiden is why I subbed to your channel while ago! You are the greatest at this game in my opinion 🔥

[@hpholland]

Before I click an Arcus video I always “AAAAAAAND KLUNK!”

[@quantumtheo]

Big time congrats dude! You are the Bob Ross of speed running, dude :) Love your videos

[@Phant0mwolf-Productions]

You are amazing! Not only speed running one of the toughest nes games around, but doin it so chill. Also that's another reason I am Fan. You are so chill. Thank you for doin what you do

[@justwannaname]

This whole soundtrack is still amazing.

[@wombatkins]

And then we spin...

[@mizolafoufounna]

A masterpiece !!😊❤😊❤

[@lllHAMBONElll]

Congrats on the new PB!

[@robloxvids2233]

Congrats! I remember watching your old 11:38 videos. Crazy to shave 4 seconds off those!

[@robertcatania1120]

and even crazier that he has to shave off another 2 seconds for the WR again.

[@Jukeboxster]

@@robertcatania1120 he lost 2 seconds on the 5-1 hiccup, he can make that up.

[@Haywire13]

77560 recorded attempts. You are a machine Arcus.

[@wombatkins]

If you turn your passion into meditation then you can do any apparently

[@migueldelmazo5244]

Plus another 40k+ that weren't recorded in that batch! Arcus is a legend.

[@AboveEmAllProduction]

Sounds like severe depression

[@richardtheconquerer]

@@AboveEmAllProduction It's his job lol

[@Mikisiw]

@@AboveEmAllProduction Sounds like projection.

[@vt100music]

Very nice. Childhood me is like “how is this even possible”

[@darksuperfly]

And klunk! I can't wait for more garden videos!!!

[@TheMattmatic]

Ninja Garden

[@montarborsfl]

Lol ningar garden

[@darksuperfly]

Ninja garden love it lol

[@chrispotts3794]

My Favorite Speed Runner is still delivering the goods! Nice work (once again) Arcus on a mind-blowing run!!!

[@POINTS2]

Even though 5-1 could have been better, just seeing you handle it with your usual calmness is great to watch.

[@kisubags437]

Haven’t watched Arcus in a while and I’m so happy he popped up today. Good job!!! That record is coming back

[@smoothALOE]

I hadn’t sat down and watched one of your SR videos in awhile, but I couldn’t resist when it’s Ninja Gaiden. Unbelievable, man! And your dry, calm demeanor just adds to the charm. Keep up the great work.

[@bolisticbee]

I'm glad to see Arcus settled into his new home and posting more videos! And a Ninga Gaiden PB to boot! Yay!

[@dao_jones]

Congrats Arcus! I will plant a jalapeno in honor of this occasion.

[@brotherrespect1232]

Congratulations Arcus! Well deserved! Always love seeing you get any sort of PB!

[@BattletoadOVerload]

Go go go go Arcus! Grats on that PB!!

[@MwdaShadow]

Nice work on the new PB, and it's good to know there's still a nice chunk of time to save in there.

[@mikoajwojtasnielsen3686]

This is unbelievable, Respect my friend

[@lecompanero1124]

New record incoming, you are a machine on Ninja Gaiden and always pushes the community.

[@Mattiis2k]

I hope so much you will take the WR :) Great work!

[@PhoticsTV]

Nice run! 🤠

[@C.J.Kristel]

Congrats! Closing in on that world record spot yet again.

[@PabstBlueRassler]

2 names synonymous with greatness: Arcus at Ninja Gaiden, and Pabst Blue Ribbon, the award-winning premium pilsner at being one of the beers of all time. Cheers to you sir, looking forward to your inevitable world record.

[@atranfanatic]

Way to go on the PB Arcus! Getting closer to the world record!

[@Arrowshot33]

That practice is paying off man! Nice job on the PB!

[@nymalous3428]

... so youtube recommends that I watch a young cowboy playing an old ninja game at high speed... alright. I remember back when the first Batman movie had come out (I think), my brother and I tried playing a Ninja Gaiden arcade machine. We were terrible (but we were 11 and 10, and didn't have much experience playing arcade games or video games in general). Thanks for the nostalgia!

[@ReaverPrime]

It's been quite awhile since I saw one of you NG runs on KZbin. Always a great watch. 👍

[@miketate3445]

This will always be amazing to watch.

[@BlankPhantom-iw8yq]

Aww yes. Arcus is at Ninja Gaiden again.

[@awldune]

Hardest-working man in speedrunning! Your wall climbing has really improved.

[@carloslaroque]

Congrats Arcus, You are the Best!!!

[@tonystaton7494]

Congrats Arcus. See you next.

[@julienchenal7967]

Yes . Very good arcus 👍👍👍. Well done

[@Dexerion]

Love it you're still on this grind. Can't wait to see you back on top!

[@TailyonDaath]

Got to see this run live on Twitch. Was a good run. Took some time but worth it in the end!

[@senseicorey9979]

Like 3 weeks of running it 8 hours a day

[@r0b0m1r0]

Yet more inspiring moments. Love the classics! Thank you!-)

[@sunwentai1]

Congratulations on this amazing PB!

[@zerkgoober]

It will always amaze me how easy you make this game look when it’s anything but easy. GG and keep chipping away that time.

[@wombatkins]

Practice can make anything possible

[@azureskys]

Congrats Arcus! What a thrilling run!

[@Fingolfin3423]

Outstanding, Arcus. Really impressive.

[@johncharlie6gotte58]

[@tipsypeer]

[@SkunkieDesignsElectronics]

[@notchunglingsu7014]

Truly a spicy pace, @6:37 held you back this time. But you got it!

[@pixelmentia]

Congrats on the PB! You inspired me to beat this game a couple years ago. Didn't speedrun it but was quite proud of myself, nonetheless.

[@__Generic]

Awesome! Grats Arcus!

[@jefflindquist6138]

Congratulations Arcus !!! 🙂

[@Opry99er]

Congrats, Arcus! Hard earned!

[@SvendleBerries]

[@JV-df9em]

Awesome run man! Long time gamer, new fan of your channel!

[@2ndBreakfassst]

Well done, sorry i didn't get to witness it live! GG as always

[@StayHungry41]

He said "kitkat and rice cake stage" and now my childhood has been permanently disfigured. Thanks, Arcus.

[@flyingerasehead]

Nice job, Arcus!

[@KorpseTE]

Congrats Arcus!

[@josephrossow8901]

Grats on the PB!

[@raymondstephens4653]

One of the best nes players of all time. Not to mention, my personal favorite. Great run arcus!

[@BigTony82-j6d]

Well deserved. You’re so close!

[@DontrelleRoosevelt]

I'm glad to see you still enjoying these games so much, after many years!

[@Kujakuseki01]

Oh man without that mistake in 5-1, that could’ve been a new wr!

[@scmsean]

He is 2 seconds behind. That cost him at most 1 sec. The WR is getting pretty close to as high as it can get.

[@DJPebs522]

See you next!

[@matth9788]

Dude, your a beast. Keep it up!

[@jorgeamaya6049]

Just in time for another arcus video love this guy 😆

[@donitaliano9380]

we out here in 2024!

[@schrodingerthecat]

ArcusGG - moving ever closer! Can't wait to see you take that title back!!!

[@robanderson3530]

You’ve really upped your jump speeds and overall physical execution. Keep grinding, 11:33 is right around the corner!

[@Belgiumgaijin]

GG! Thrilling run!

[@salemredding563]

You are an artist!!!!

[@mrglock22-]

I love your sound effects to remember the timing, smashsmashsmash!

[@4PieceOriginal]

This was the 2nd game I owned on the NES, I was in elementary school wow. I only got to the Demon once and never beat him.

[@nowhere2bfound7734]

Almost WR again Arcus!

[@koningflorian2346]

wow congratulations, that's a PB after only getting back into the game just a couple of days!

[@UltraCollagenBooster]

U da man Arcus... 👍

[@WillMauz]

Arcus! Ah man, heck yeah.

[@BlankSpacePub]

I love how you have your own lyrics to the NG music as a nemonic device. 😊

[@mandmcentrella5608]

The patience to go through hours of resets and then nail a pb is quite impressive. Keep it up!

[@johntuel2375]

Man, 8 year old me that couldn't even get passed the first boss back in like...1991 maybe, is jaw dropped stunned haha. Strong work. That was an awesome run.

[@wombatkins]

It was the bottomless pits that got me.

[@freeHippie_]

congrats buddy

[@lack_of_zzzzz]

Arcus is one of the few dudes bringing the world back towards the light.

[@christabo83]

C'mon Arcus, you got this!

[@marcovarius]

Wow, incredible!

[@briagaldabazzz]

The most hard of NES. Good job, cowboy.

[@FrankIsDoingThings]

Omg congratulations!!

[@davidbermudez7704]

Bleep…bleep…bleep…good bleeps - Arcus 2024 🤠 👢👢

[@thanosdoomjuggernaut2846]

This is extremely impressive. I was 13 years old when his game came out. I had a score of 990,000 And I kept playing and It flipped to all zeros and started all over again.

[@ackulakan]

Nothing like a good Krispy Klimb to get your day going.

[@managua-san8075]

If there was a thing as a cowboy ninja, Arcus would be their leader. Go Arcus, you got this.

[@TheNoticer83]

I feel like final bosses would be disappointed by how many of their henchmen *didn't* have to be killed.

[@CDcooper3876]

Enjoyed watching brought me back to my childhood . Such an incredible game for its time with the cinematic cut scenes telling a very 80s story of ninjas, demons and magic . The cutscenes I’m sure motivated us all to keep plugging away at the very challenging gameplay . Few games were more satisfying to beat . I even recorded my play on vhs to prove to my friends I could “one life” it . ( not nearly a good a you and today I’m not sure I could beat act 4 , reflexes not the same on old azz hands 😂) )

[@Bryan19777]

That was crazy. I beat this game once as a kid and died a million times in the last two levels. And you did it in 1134!! Hats off to ya!

[@cordaxg6261]

Arcus !! Its time you take back whats yours 🎉🎉 take that WR

[@fncrazy101]

Great job ❤

[@speedut2004]

Amazing run, it's unfortunate the mistake in stage 5 cost 2 seconds
