I am King
Hello there, I just wanted to share one of my biggest accomplishments as a gamer (and it happened a few minutes ago): I beat Ninja Gaiden 2 with 1 life. I've been attemping this for some time now, and finally could do it tonight, and I did it on the first attemp! I have no video, but some photos of the final moments.
After a hard battle with the previous incarnations of The Jaquio, I was a bit low on life

Yay for Ninja Shadows

Crumble to the sea, you damn Castle Demonic!

Yeah yeah, shut up, and let's go somewhere private

So clichéd

I want to try it for Twin Galaxies, but I was a bit dissapointed to see they're too lax on their rules (five lifes? seriously?) and apparently allow for point racking, which I didn't do at all. Right now the first place for this game is a mexican, very curious... But his 1,800,000 + score makes me think he definitely racked points. Oh well...

Did you see the other record at TG? They have a fastest completion category also for NG2. If you can do it with 1 life, you should be able to do it quite quickly. The record right now is 13:26
Ninja gaiden 2 & 3 are pretty much hard.
Nice job so far!
Wow nice job! Have you beat any other NG in one life, or was this your first?

I actually beat the game in 13:05, but never recorded it. When I did try to record it (many, many times), I could never duplicate it (I always messed up somewhere). If I don't record it, I do a lot better.
Even though the bad guys make no sense in that game, it's still wonderful. The hit detection is fair, the controls are great and the music is outstanding. I remember I found the game a bit disturbing as a kid because the imagery was fairly dark for an NES game.

First time, first one. I think I can do NG3 too, but 1, I don't know. I also saw the fast completion record, I may try that one instead...
Schooled. You know, this is a game I've never played past the first or second level simply because I just never sat down to do it. Some day...
Why not make that day today? ;D
