Objective:

  • Beat the game.

Rules:

  • Entire playthrough must be completed during the month in question.
  • You can use the passwords/continues/saves that you earn playing through the game.
  • Emulation is fine. Abusing save states is not.
  • Posting a link to a pic of your completion is preferred, but since this is all just for fun, I will allow claims via simple posts as well.

One of the most forgotten 1st party Nintendo games

I feel like the game was just a hardware tech demo.  It's one of the few games that supports both the mouse and super scope.

F this game man...I cannot tell you the rage and shear pain from getting to the last duel and never being able to beat it. Countless times. Always ended the same. Loved it until I destroyed it.

To quote SF2 (Turbo, of course),

"Round 2, Fight." Give the game another go :)

I will never. It ruined my summer as a kid. Never again.

That's fair. A million games out there. Some games are so damned frustrating, alas. Well, on to the next of a million great games :)

This was one of my favorite SNES games when I was a kid. Underrated gem. Silly but engaging with good music.

Does anyone have any thought on how playable this game is with a standard Snes controller?

It’s hard but not terrible, I’ve beaten it or at least gotten very far. But I’ve also had the game since I was a kid.

Beat it as a kid with controller, had no idea it was not meant to be played that way 😂

u/Gettitn_Squirrelly 9d ago

Do we just post results in this thread or do we make new posts involving the game? Genuine question sorry if there's an answer elsewhere

I just got this to work on the Wii. I never had a super scope or a mouse. I'll give it a try
