NES Completions thread 2021 - 665/677


scaryice

Recommended Posts

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 2021, bonus points will be awarded for beating games that have been unbeaten in the previous years of this competition (2012-20), at the rate of one point for each year a game was unbeaten. These will be known as "pain points" and will also have a separate leaderboard, in addition to counting for the overall standings. That name was chosen that name because many of these obscure titles aren't exactly something that people look forward to playing... There's a total of 218 games with 427 pain points attached. The bonus points are listed below to the right of the game's normal point value.

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. I posted a list of what constitutes beating many of the less obvious games (see post 3, further down this page), 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 2021 from start to finish.

Pain Points Standings

These are awarded for beating games that have gone unbeaten in previous years (1 point per year unbeaten). They're also included in the overall standings under the bonus column (and they count for the total points column also). But I thought they also deserved their own separate recognition due to being some of the hardest, most undesirable games to play.

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

Castlevania is done.

 

So I actually started playing this on my Castlevania Remix Cart. and the bastard froze up on me on level 5 and I had to start all over so I switched to my own 5 screw cart.  In the past I've had the 5screw cart freeze up on me in about 4 spots: the penultimate corridor before the Reaper, The Reaper's Chamber, Dracula's Chamber and the room immediately before Dracula's Chamber.  This time was new.  It froze up in the very beginning of the area right before the penultimate corridor before the Reaper.  So I actually had to play it about 1.8 times.  

The reason I started with the Remix cart was that I figured the version that'd be used for the North American Version would be the Rev. A with that bug fixed, but alas..

Jaws is done.

 

I've played this one more times than I could guess because I actually like it, but for whatever reason, this time it was as if there were gremlins in the cartridge tweaking the program.  I'm ashamed to admit how long it took me to do this instead of the anticipated 5 -10 minutes.  Every few spaces the ship foundered without fail.  I must have bombed the jelly fish ten or eleven times and actually died twice.  At this point I was starting to wonder what was going on.
