SHAO-LIN'S ROAD (Konami - Arcade - 1985)

[@hassanskinner0817]

This game brings back so many memories I remember as a kid I used to go to the local super market to help pack bags, just to play this game at the local arcade.😁🤪

[@RetroDanuart]

This game was one at the arcade saloon near my home, but in that time I didn't take much interest on it.

[@jordanjenkins1973]

My friend has an arcade machine at his house, we played the hell out of this game our entire childhood

[@RetroDanuart]

Yes, it's very addictive.

[@thespacesbetweenstudio3346]

I could play this game all day on a single quarter. loved it

[@RetroDanuart]

Very addictive.

[@KareemHillJr]

I find it so weird this never had an NES release.

[@RetroDanuart]

True, could be the typical conversion for the NES. However has ports for computers like amstrad.

[@ataris-worst-nightmare]

Extraño cuando Konami hacía juegos tan buenos. El '85 revivió un poco los arcades con Gauntlet y este de acá. Aunque sigo sin ser muy fan de estas cosas de "16-bits".

[@RetroDanuart]

No creo que llegue a tener 16bit este juego, imagino que te refieres mas a que no eres fan de los juegos tipo retro. Tampoco creo que esos dos juegos revivieran nada, la época de los 80 y 90 esta plagada de títulos sobresalientes. Claro que si no eres fan se puede entender el razonamiento...

[@ataris-worst-nightmare]

@@RetroDanuart No, yo AMO los de 8-bits, Moon Alien, Space Launcher, Warlords... pero desde Pole Position, la mayoría llegaron a los de 16-bits, incluso Konami que hace tantas chistoseadas dudo mucho que no haya usado esa tecnología. Y de títulos sobresalientes de los 90s... ehh... bueno, si te refieres a puros juegos de peleas y beat' em ups, pues discrepo cortesmente, pero bueno.

[@RetroDanuart]

@@ataris-worst-nightmare Sobre gustos...

[@Agradecido72]

Estava a anos tentando lembrar deste nome de jogo. eu jogava em 85 no arcade tempo bom...

[@RetroDanuart]

Shao-Lin's Road, alias Kicker :)

[@creative1derkingdom353]

I used to flip this game over and over. I think after the third time the enemy's would move faster and lead from the top row down on you. I think their os also a second bird to coming in the opposite direction.

[@RetroDanuart]

You are right, but with some skills you can play this game eternally.

[@crazycraigy01]

Played this at Evans Funfair every year 10p a game, me and another dude were top scorers..

[@RetroDanuart]

A good game for scoring some points, quite easy with some practice.

[@Risingson2]

you can get the spiky ball back pressing "back" before it goes off the screen

[@RetroDanuart]

Yeah that's true, I see you know this game well. That's a tricky strategy to blast some enemies at the same time.

[@Risingson2]

@@RetroDanuart I know this game well because I watched people at the arcade beating it over and over again! (I'm not that good at it anymore)

[@EuMesmoVII]

Your goal: clear the screen off all the Danny Trejos before you get beaten! Also, at 3:30... the power of the fiery armpit!

[@RetroDanuart]

Great comment xDDDD. I call them Fu-man chus :)

[@paulhagger5261]

Love the music! 😂

[@RetroDanuart]

Yesss it's so cute.

[@paulhagger5261]

Yes, proper retro 😊 really enjoyed your video. I love the old classic arcade games 😊

[@RetroDanuart]

@@paulhagger5261 Love you liked it :)

[@crazycraigy01]

This and DOUBLE DRAGON, and OUTRUN..

[@RetroDanuart]

Great times...

[@hassanskinner0817]

Remember yier kung fu another dope classic.

[@RetroDanuart]

And one of my favourites. The amstrad port is very good.

[@solomonsworld7459]

I really like the bosses

[@RetroDanuart]

Yes the graphics are so cute.

[@solomonsworld7459]

The powers are very cool to me

[@solomonsworld7459]

I think when I played this game my score was 9000000 something

[@RetroDanuart]

Not hard to get high scores since the game's difficulty it's the same when advancing in loops. But well done!!!

[@jonathangirard1232]

I’m able to reach the stage where they become bunny hopers. Which is annoying. Also I mean stage 4.

[@RetroDanuart]

With practice it's not hard to reach that level. Fortunately this game is not Turtles in time :)

[@jezhy]

Is there any continuation of your play through? I got step 159 and over 6 000 000 points on Konami 80's Arcade Gallery via Xbox360 (esPX emulator) easily.

[@RetroDanuart]

Yes I know but this is not a High score channel: When I do a longplay with a looping system game, I usually show 1-4 loops, I think it's enough to show how the game works. About what you say it's true: When you reach certain loop the difficulty is fixed and if you can handle it, you can almost play eternally...

[@jezhy]

True story! Thanks for an great video anyway. One of the best on KZbin so far!

[@RetroDanuart]

Thanks for your comment :)

[@vinnividetti]

Play this game with 7, at a bar near my house!

[@RetroDanuart]

Lot of fun.

[@jackieleonard9703]

The day before this was the green goblin daniel owns and doc ock darragh owns

[@RetroDanuart]

Good to know.

[@jackieleonard9703]

Why is it good to know
