NES Completions thread 2024 - 660/677

[scaryice | 587]

It's once again time for VGS to beat every single NES game in a single year! Our goal is to collectively beat every licensed US game on the Nintendo Entertainment System. Each game is worth a certain number of points (1-10), based on how long it's taken them to complete over the past five years. Generally, the harder a game is, the more points it's worth, although rarity, length, and quality play a role as well.

For 2024, "pain points" will be awarded as a bonus for games which have gone unbeaten in previous years, with a total of one point per year unbeaten. That's the second number in the lists below.

 

Rules

Post the games you've beaten in this thread. No cheat codes or level selects, obviously. No turbo controllers either - just play the game legit. We're using the honor system here, so no pics or anything required (although they are fun & encouraged). Emulators are ok too (no save states/frame skip/cheats). Using continues or passwords is fine as well, as long as the entire game was beaten in this calendar year. However, you may not use any codes unless they were given to you by the game itself or the manual. So no continuing in Arkanoid or Ikari Warriors, for example.

If a game has no ending and just repeats the same stages, then we'll generally consider it beaten once you get to the point where it repeats and also beat the high score if there is one. The pastebin below is a list of what constitutes beating many of the less obvious games , so check that out or ask here if you're unsure. It's not necessary to get every ending or play on the highest difficulty (with a couple of exceptions where you don't play the full game otherwise).

All games must be played entirely in 2024 from start to finish.

Conditions for victory:

For some games, it's not obvious what constitutes actually beating the game. I've tried to provide a list of those games here. If you still have questions about these or other games, please ask in the thread.

No Spy vs Spy yet??

[scaryice | 587]

It's now midnight in the eastern time zone, so the 2024 competition has officially started!

[ZeldaFreak | 3,600]

Depending on whether or not there's any other completion threads for this year, I'm gonna try to lend some aid this time around. I'm gonna prioritize games which weren't beaten last year, and games which are generally unfun and/or very long, same as I did with the N64 completion thread last year. I'm gonna try to focus on the games that nobody really wants to play, and hopefully save the fun ones for the rest of you.

We made a big push in the N64 completion thread last year and managed to beat the whole library, let's try to make a big push for NES this year and I'm sure we can replicate that same success.
