The Hardest Challenge This Game Offers [NES WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS]

[@alexrompen805]

Dont worry, Billy Mitchell completed this challenge 115 years ago in 45 seconds... You got this

[@joeydurant6267]

Only seven likes? You deserve better cuz that genuinely made me smile. I salute you.

[@jackbaxter-williams8059]

This joke practically never gets old.

[@MC-ep8cu]

​@jackbaxter-williams8059 idk why it feels like the word practically carries another joke with it but I do. Flying over my head

[@shlatekkin]

This game reminds me of an idea i had years ago for a new Zelda game. The gimick is that you're cursed by someone (ganon, demise, majora, whoever) to travel thru time at specific locations and every dungeon is in a different style of a past Zelda game, borrowing the art style and game mechanics. It could be called A Link Through the Ages.

[@chrismeulen8108]

the ACTUAL hardest challenge this game offers, is getting Ryu to like Balloon Fight.

[@thenonexistinghero]

The actual game is actually pretty fun. But going straight to challenges, you're gonna wrestle with the controls. The actual game is better to get used to the feel of the physics.

[@jonathant2809]

This legendary run should've ended on a fight with Mike Tyson.

[@MCHellshit]

This game is missing so many iconic games.

[@SmokeyJ628]

The eggplant wizards don't kill you in Kid Icarus. They turn you into an eggplant, and then you have to find the nurse to get healed. They are easily one of the most annoying and frustrating enemies in any NES game. Hate those guys.

[@iantaakalla8180]

It is the Tempura Wizards in Kid Icarus Uprising that can eat you as a plant.

[@teevor1]

I think the challenges are there for the players to learn the levels and be able to practice certain areas to memorize & develop strategies for your optimum run!

[@Delineated69]

34:22 - Super Dodgeball for me lol

[@fireflymetotheblack]

56:46 gotta love the spilts! 🎉

[@ryushorts]

🤣🤣🤣 nice catch

[@DonaldPrevie]

Ryu’s so good of a gamer that Kirby breaks his brain lol.

[@TheIssac1070]

I don’t know if you ever played it, but I think you’d like playing NES Remix on Wii U. Luckily, they did make a physical copy of the game. Love your content, thank you for being awesome

[@poshko41]

You can spam shoot in Kid Icarus by ducking and standing up rapidly while shooting. It basically skips the entirety of the shoot animation. Also, eggplants don't kill you. They take away your ability to attack until you can find a nurse to heal you.

[@pedrohenriquecarneiro3386]

51:14 Just imagine you'd to do the Arcade game on DK64 and pass through 4 levels instead of three

[@marks5759]

Eqq plant Wizards do not insta kill you, in the full game you have to find a nurse to remove the egg plant from your head, you can not attack while it covers you.

[@TheDarkLink7]

Hey Ryu hope you read this my dude cause its one interesting thing about certain NES games. So some of them where put together with some duct tape such as Metroid and Zelda. Now not to say that duct tape is or was a bad thing. Jist that there are a few things that ya can do that you'd think "Thats odd." Like swipping with the sword, taking some damage from the Stalfos, and ya can take the key without defeating the stalfos.

[@ghamandlupinwalkingtours]

Are you using a wired connection for your controller? Curious whether they has much effect on your timing

​@@the-NightStarwhy do you talk/act like this? is it some kind of weird online persona or something?

@@eevee4 he has a point. its not a nintendo first party game, so it wouldnt be on the list. you stuck your nose into it, had a choice of which comment to defend, and your chose the dumb guy lol.

[@eevee4]

@@isturbo1984 it was a completely innocuous comment that wasn't even worth responding to for them. if what they wanted to do was correct them then they really could've just done that. they seem to have that pompous internet attitude that just has to let everyone know that they're smart and their opinions are worth more. its obvious from the fact that they have to respond to everyone who doesn't like the game. it has nothing to do with being right or wrong, people not acting with grace to others just cause they're online is weirdo behavior and i'll call it out. the fact that you call op "the dumb guy" and see sides to "defend" is a perfect example of this. op just wanted another title in the collection lmao, that's all there was to it.

I want to know too!

Mario Maker is like Mario Kart and Smash Bros, one per system -- we don't need to worry, based on precedent and sales numbers.

Reevaluate yourself. The NES is great.

[@emacsterm2949]

Excitebike is so hard man, only game I didn't get all S ranks on.

[@Laptop-12]

the sum of best of your two runs is 25:07.08

[@oldschoolgamer8278]

Mario and you ARE Homies, Ryu. Remember, Luigi did it to you. Is he the real black sheep of the family?

[@DIProgan]

What the heck will they do if the 4th & 5th player ties in round 1

[@Ravenslittlenest]

Nice! Id like to see you play splatoon 3

[@wolffiegaming]

The eggplants don't insta kill you... in the regular game they turn you into an eggplant... and then you have to find a hospital to get repaired. You can't attack in eggplant form

[@dreadGodshand]

Wait, do you have a badge for S ranking everything? I didn't know you get anything for S ranking them? Or is that badge for something else?

[@zamooti4505]

On Metroid you were stopping after every jump. Take a look at your own PB and you’ll notice you weren’t stopping at all

[@derecknorman5487]

Ryu- makes 15 mistakes in level. Also Ryu - “no S rank”??

[@eugenethomas1636]

Ryu in zelda 2 the enemies that don't give exp take away exp when taking damage from them

[@jkell411]

Kirby is almost impossible for me with the NES controller... I can't stop getting up inputs, too. I just completely stopped playing any Kirby challenges.

[@cyclingmc]

Do you get to play all those games?? I saw Gauntlet!! Or is this an unlock??

[@Legion17]

I had never seen that balloon game before. It just looks like a less fun Joust

[@codymunholland4617]

They should have made this game "mario maker style" with all full games in, users create start and finish points, users can create multi game challenges.

[@jray0717]

I scored 500th ish place with a 15 second run on mario 2. That tells you how good people are at these games

[@ryushorts]

my time was killer and i was stil only like 300th. it doesn't even let you look at what the best time was.... nintendo suuuuuuuuuuuucks

[@Wil-o4i]

​@@ryushorts 13.66 shows the replay too.

[@FUGP72]

Those "bolts" are rivets. Not sure why Nintendo is calling them bolts now, but they have always been called rivets (by Nintendo) in the past.

[@xLuigi77x]

they should've added a smb3 challenge where you get the three whistles and call it the wizard

[@Evilpr0tagonist]

Can I ask what controller you are using? I started using the NES joy cons from the Nintendo Online store, but I feel they have some serious lag....... Anyone else having any luck with a great controller?

[@montyally7069]

to restart faster press L + R not Zl ZR

[@Thefrogking15]

He's playing with the switch nes controller which only has zl zr buttons

[@ProdriveGT]

Just imagine if games like double dragon,tmnt,contra were added.

[@Reconsiderate]

more Kid Icarus plz 👀

[@chrisquint3656]

I’m hoping they add nes remix as dlc

[@lemonplays-gaming]

I find it funny he still keeps saying AA+ 😅

[@lordadman]

Does anyone know what his final ranking was the next day in the smb2 challenge?

[@dirtonknees2]

I just saw a reply, Ryu said he was like 300th!! Crazy. Someone else replied the #1 was 13.66

[@Mechachu]

Have you never played Kirby!?!?!?!?!?! Hoooooow

[@joshwagner8457]

Please have dlc for this with new challenges and new games!!!where is punch out??!!

[@CapnPink28]

Billy Mitchell accomplished this feat, no more than an hour ago.

[@NickRondo]

Its kind of game in the old days you'll rent it for 3 days at your local blockbuster then you blast it. I feel they'll do SNES Edition .. I hope they'll improve it. Im more SNES Gen than NES.

[@bgjck]

When you beat Mario master in 5:34:45 and got an S rank, I was like II'm pretty sure I beat Mario Master in a similar time and didn't get an S rank and then I remembered that I actually beat it in 11:00:03 😂(I'm so bad)

Commentus Maximus

[@maxraccoon3529]

Mario Maker 2 sold nearly 8.5 million copies. Even Wonder outsold it. Still in the top 25. If it truly isn't a lot of work for them to make, then it would make sense for them to make a 3. It would be easy high sales

[@sthenx0r]

*jumps through the bird and off the cliff* Wha the FUCK

[@KirbyMasterArchives]

It’s nice to see that after all the shit Ryu usually talks about Kirby for being easy, he kinda sucks at Adventure

[@DrHydro-pr5ox]

Even just including the full versions of these games on here would've made it so much more worth it! Nintendo really crapped the bed with this

[@superduty4556]

Why do that when they can charge you for them after giving you a taste?

[@MMoer]

​@@superduty4556like that is ever going to happen... Look at the absurd amounts of mario party the switch received during its lifespan with a sad amount of boards per game. Not once they released dlc so why would they do that now for this game? If anything they'll just release a second game with half baked amount of games in them. The only game they really nailed this gen is smash brothers ultimate.

[@MIDNIGHT0521]

Being in agreement with an opinion espoused by Pat The NES Punk on his CU Podcast weeks ago before this hit its release day, what Nintendo should've done from the get-go in bringing this product to market is to have included the full games for all 13 titles given we're talking about game IPs which are nearly 40 years-old or at bare minimum 35. Even had they made the sticker price be higher just for that purpose it would've been acceptable. In addition it would've extended the shelf-life & made consumers happy! Then if any future DLC does come to pass that would be an added bonus. As someone who got the NES for Christmas 1985 at 3 & ⅔ years-old (to be particularly precise), Nintendo has milked the cow's udders so hard on many of these retro IP titles in terms of maximizing their profit margins, nothing but air expels any longer. Counting original release then practically every decade at some point with each new primary and handheld console both in physical manifestations and followed eventually via online (starting with the Wii Shop as the earliest example, I believe?), when does it cease being capitalism by HQ World Headquarters & just pure greed? Nintendo's games and as a brand left a forever lasting impression in my life, but c'mon now.

[@chrisquint3656]

While I can appreciate the sentiment of including the games, they are all available on the switch as it is. If you’re using nso you have access to all of these games plus many more. I’m hoping they plan some great dlc for this game as it has great potential

[@tetermc]

Gotta wonder why punch-out wasn't in this game.

[@BoneDog1215]

Because you can’t do anything faster in that game.

[@eevee4]

​@@BoneDog1215yes you can, there wouldn't be punch out speedruns at all if that were the case. it is kind of "on rails" but there's plenty of optimizations and fun challenges that could be made. it's likely too hard for casual players considering you need to know specific patterns and strategies to go fast.

[@AquamentusLives]

That game sucks to play if you aren’t playing on an old crt tv.

[@dirtonknees2]

I agree!!

[@paularized1]

41:39 Can you boost off the mask somehow to get out faster?

[@Darwinsgb]

Wow choosing Megaman over final fantasy I'm gonna be sad about stuff now

[@jensablefur155]

Adding cheesy cheering sound fx when you're racing ghosts as the "online play" is hilariously bad. Game despereately needs some DLC or it's gonna die quickly.

[@mahakali1810]

❤

[@TevorTheThird]

Legitimately kind of shocked they have a list of every NES and Famicom game. I would just assume you'd not be able to mention all those IPs and trademarked names for some asinine reason. Not without paying for new licensing. If only the rest of the game was as impressive.

[@esmerylan]

As a fan of Jeff Gerstmann's weekly NES game ranking streams, I need to know if Dynowarz: Destruction of Spondylus is included in that list. Ryu never gave a clear enough view of the "D" section for me to tell.

[@FabriSlv]

Soooo, did he get the world record???

[@dirtonknees2]

Nope, he was like 300th somehow 😮

[@patrikhagbom2124]

Try a sub 25 minutes 😊

[@taruninja]

Pretty cool game, tho after a week its gonna be dropped hard by 99% of the players. Leader boards would be cool but a waste to have for a game that will be dead within a month. Also.....you telling me 4/13 S ranks = S rank overall?! They just handing them out at that point.🤣

[@DarkSim64]

Online leaderboards, if managed by Nintendo, would be all hacked scores within a week anyway What I'd like to see is leaderboards for individual level and "overall time" rankings on some other websises hosted by players. Like the Goldeneye/Perfect Dark community does, or Smash Melee with Home Run contest and Break the Targets.

[@austinwarner5114]

Look at those adderall eyes. Ya dudes tweaking. If I had no job and uppers I’d be on the same level, nice!

[@ChuckBeans61]

Another game from Nintendo that feels half made. Remember when Nintendo would often make a game that would overwhelm you with depth like all other AAA titles do for other consoles.

[@mrdemonictaco5879]

You mean like mario odd, zelda totk, smash bros ultimate, animal crossing, metroid

[@Figgy20000]

Hot Take: Almost every S rank in this entire game is ridiculously easy. Nintendo should be ashamed of themselves for this, if they made the S ranks actually difficult to obtain this would have been legendary.

[@slimbroco572]

This game shouldn't have that rewind crap. That shouldnt even be in a video game especially this one

[@teddybreeez]

It's a shame I'm already bored with this game
