Let's play some vidya.
1. Go here http://s3kr.it/gauntlet.html and roll a NES game
2. Complete it within 3 days without a guide or other outside aid (RPGs get a week)
3. Keep the thread informed with screenshots of your progress, within reason
4. Roll for the next console when finished and repeat until you can't bring yourself to gauntlet any more
RULES:
-No savestates
-Failure to complete the game within the allotted time sends you back a console
-Hints from your fellow /v/irgins are allowed
Check http://emulation.gametechwiki.com/index.php/Main_Page for emulator recommendations and most importantlyhave fun
And so the adventures of Anon and lil Cucky continue. I'd hoped to capture a pidgey before fighting Gary again.
Seriously how the hell do I get past this
I've been stuck for like an hour
>>344737451
Lil Cucky's just no match for Gary's mans
>>344737451
Fuck him up, Anon
Be the Cucker, not the Cuckee
>>344736658
Even the mighty Shao Kahn can't handle it
>>344737557
Don't give up so easily, senpai
rape him
rape him and his bird pidgey too
>>344737494
You probably need a running start
>>344737557
After getting rekt by Gary, I went and caught a Pidgey. What's the name of this fellow gonna be?
>>344737573
It's finally over
>>344737862
CONGRATULATIONS!
>>344737932
Me on the left
>>344737736
Harvey
or Birdman
either works
>>344737932
>>344737862
Here's my reward, seems like I haven't suffered enough.
I'll get on this if the thread is still up later today
>>344737494
Are we allowed to give up on a game
This is driving me insane
>>344737494
>>344738274
ohhh man i remember that shit
i think if you're stuck it's not bad sportsmanship to check a guide or use a secret/game genie code
>>344737736
>>344738078
After a bit of training, Harvey and Lil Cucky are a bit stronger, but still not quite tough enough to take on Gary's Mans.
>>344738274
Yeah you can reroll
>>344738552
I head North to further temper their strength in the forest.
>>344738396
>>344738564
Nevermind I finally fucking did it
>>344738552
I caught a Kakuna! What shall I name it?
>>344739012
Dildohands
For when he evolves.
>>344738396
>it's not bad sportsmanship to check a guide or use a secret/game genie code
>>344738564
>Yeah reroll if you're having any amount of difficulty
Why bother playing if you're going to be this casual? 3 days is plenty of time to complete even a hard game.
>>344739012
Oh no, Lil Cucky just can't catch a break.
>>344739056
That'll do
>>344739160
it really depends on the game though. this isn't megaman or super mario 2. it's bart versus the motherfucking world.
>>344737451

>NES game
Are you retarded?
>>344739160
If he's having no fun at all in a terrible game, you really think he'll finish it, or even continue the gauntlet? Don't forget it's supposed to be fun
>>344739325
I was confused by this as well.
>>344739160
I recall one time where I did have to reroll. Not because it was too hard and I just quit necessarily but because I ran out of days to finish it because it was hard as shit.
>>344739325
What? Pokemon Red is a GB game. I already played a NES and SNES game.
>>344738905
don't give up based anon
>>344738948
Thanks friend
>>344738905
We're on our way, boys
Anyone got some album suggestions or something? I need some more stuff to listen to while I play
>>344739183
We're not out of the woods yet. I mean, we are, but we aren't quite to Pewter city.
>>344739502
What sort of music do you like? I can suggest tons of DnB.
>roll nes game
>get snes game
should i reroll or just roll with it?
well, i got Superman for nes.is it good?
>>344739648
Roll another NES game and use that for your SNES game.
>>344739629
Time to take on Brock.
>>344739724
ohhhh boy.
>>344739629
I like pretty much anything as long as it sounds good. Go ahead and shoot some my way, buddy
>>344739785
Lil Cucky is feeling a little better about himself now.
Oh come on now, how do I even beat this.
>>344739805
>start game
>immediately get cucked by a frog
i feel like this is going to be a rough ride.
>>344740080
This seems like one of those games with no real end.
>>344740080
You can either roll a different game, or play till you get to Level 50 or something
>>344739912
London Elektricity has some good liquid dnb albums. Billion Dollar Gravy and Syncopated City are my favorites.
Goldie's Timeless album is pretty great, if a bit of an aquired taste.
Lemaitre has some nice House tunes, though some of their newer stuff is kinda poppy.
Flight Facilities album Down To Earth has a good variety, mostly relaxing stuff.
>>344739940
Here Comes Brock!
>>344740358
His mans are no match for the shear power of bubbles!
>>344740248
Welp, got nothing better to do, might as well git gud.
>>344740430
TRIGGER WARNING: SKELETON!!!
>>344740506

Literally Tetris with pyramids.
I'm pretty sure it's also made by Russians.
>>344740565
Oh shit!
Start thinking of names, guys.
>>344740719
Fug, one gust was enough to OHK it
>>344740104
i remember level 2 being so impossibly hard we just gave up. for a bunch of little kids with nothing but time on their hands, fresh from stomping all the mario games, that was saying something.
>>344737363
"Your NES game is Jaws"
Sweet. I even have a hardcopy. Good luck dudes.
>>344740641
Jesus fucking Christ this is hard.
Finished my game! This was the last boss, and he was actually hard compared to the others. Had to save all my hp for him otherwise he would wreck me.
Will roll a snes game tommorow.
>>344740104
this is straight up bullshit.
>>344741091
Silly me, forgetting my screenshot.

where i get that damn pass for the subway?
>>344741087
Welp, fuck this game.
Since I haven't progressed at all, I guess there's no punishment.
I really hope this new game isn't hard to find.
>>344740786
A BEE!?
>>344741973
Still doesn't know any actual attacks yet.
>>344741106
after a few tries and frustration we finally made it to level 3(scene 3 according to the manual)
>>344742146

IT JUST KEEPS TUMBLING DOWN TUMBLING DOWN TUMBLING DOOOWN.
What's with your Window borders? Some kind of Window Manager theme?
>>344742895
Looks like you need to hit that platform in the middle of the hole.
>>344742895
It just keeps happening.
>>344742752
WHAT A STEAL!
>>344743140
So I have a Magikarp now. What shall we name it?
>>344743051
yeah its just a windows skin.
i really like it actually,makes everything darker and easier on the eyes.
Welp, I was rolled this thing.
"Infamous for its excruciating difficulty, Abadox is a side-scroller shooter for the NES that had both vertical and horizontal levels."
HERE WE GO
Pretty neat. I've always like dark themes as well.
>>344737363
lets do this
>>344743412
Meant for >>344743285
>>344743376
HA HA HA.
Good fucking luck anon.
Just a heads up. The very last section of the game is a bitch.
First boss. Some sort of giant zombie dog. I got all the powerups though, so he's a fucking cakewalk
>>344743214
Well, I guess I'll name it myself. On to Mount Moon!
Welp, I'm as good as dead. I'm horrible at platforming.
>>344743947
Off to a good start
2nd boss. A giant wall of flesh with eyes.
>>344743978
First game over boys, off to a great start
>>344744042
That's oddly familiar.
>>344744153
Yeah, this game is very visceral. Lots of flesh.
Boss 3. This tunnel snake is a tremendous asshole, and I can't hit him unless he's below me for the fraction of a second I can hit him. I haven't died so far because I'm so powered up nothing can hit me through the bullet spam and the orbs, but that'll change soon enough.
Here we go lads.
Welp
I'm either going to get fucked in the ass, or this'll be over in five minutes
>>344744108
Lets see if I can get past this and actually see the rest of the game.I screwed it up again
#4. Another wall of flesh, only its vertical!
He can't actually hit me where I'm sitting, but I can hit him, so just imagine me spamming attack for the next several minutes chipping him down. I'll be fucked if I'm going to do this the "right" way, losing all my progress over this shit.
>>344741191
Bartfag here. Kept dying right before reaching Egypt again. I'm gonna turn in for tonight, and take my victory tomorrow. Gnight guise, and good luck on your gauntlets
>>344744817
Rest well, anon. You've earned it.
>>344743473
first boss down
#5. Some sort of giant zombie fish thing. I flew from the left to the right, spamming bullets the entire path.
It got fucking destroyed so quickly this was the only screenshot I got of it. It's a muddy mess, but so was the boss fight so I guess that's a pass.
>>344744015
So many fucking Zubats.
I'm gonna give up on Krion because I can't get passed that room and switch to Moai Kun to see if I can get better results.
>>344745021
Oh shit! After battling so many Zubats, Lil Cucky's evolved!
#6. Some giant women, had a pitiful triple bullet attack and spammed red homing blobs that died in a shot. If I wasn't powered up to the max, the blobs might have been a problem, but I had huge homing rockets every other bullet wiping them out.
So far so good, but I fear the moment I die and lose all these powerups, 2 more deaths will swiftly follow and I'll ragequit out of spite.
#7how far does this fucking game go god damnitDied like a bitch, never saw its attacks beyond the "I spit 3 bullets like every single enemy in this game" thing.
Maybe it did more, but who knows. You can't shoot another bullet unless there isn't one on the screen, so getting close to this guy and hammering 'shot' causes you to just rip anything to a thousand pieces.
>>344742895
WE DID IT REDDIT.
finally managed to reach this level with a continue and was able to beat.
now we are at stage 4 but according to the manual the cutscene between stages 2 and 3 is a scene.
so we are at scene 5 out of 7.
i feel my fatigue slowly withering away though.
>>344745328
It has seven stages.
>>344745430
You got this, anon. Stay determined!
>>344745463
>7 stages
I think I'm on 4 now, fuck fucking fuck.
Another boss. Died like a bitch because 'lol melee range bullet spam'
I'm a pleb but let's try this out
It's the Axom Rangers, #9.
I think all they do is float up and down and fire that giant circle bullet. It's piss easy to dodge, so they go down pretty quick.
>>344745430
Keep at it man, I believe in you more than I've believed in anyone.
Great so now I have to deal with an old man throwing bats at me, this will be fun
>>344745828
I know how you feel, man.
What the christ. #10 is a giant man.

>>344745908

alright, i think i can do this, hopefully
>>344746130
Even fucking Team Rocket is using Zubats. Goddamnit I'm so sick of this shit.
>>344746025
kek. Nice taste anon
Ok, so this stage was absolute bullshit. I died twice, so there go my lives.
Fireballs that never stop chasing you. If 5 of them touch, it becomes a ghost that can't die.
Laser walls from a previous stage, only 10000x more douchy because of the vertical nature of the game now
Giant skulls that explode into tiny embryo things. Those tiny things can't be killed, and if they touch your ship they disable your ability to shoot.
At one point, its a several giant skulls, then some fireballs, while dealing with a new threat, giant crusher plates on the left and right, giving you about a nanosecond of time to get between it all.
On top of all this bullshit, the boss himself uses those fireballs as well, and you need to kill all 5 portions of him. The only reason I didn't game over it when you spam your 'shot' enough, the game slows down because it can't handle all the bullshit, giving me plenty of time to dodge carefully.
Fuck this entire stage.
>>344745556
>>344745774
sorry guys i can't dew it anymore.
cuckulla wins this time,but i will be back to ghostbust his ass.
Emulator downloaded and NES controller connected. I'm ready to play some darkwing duck!

No losses so far, but I know how this goes.
I'm scared, lads.
>>344746590

rest in piss while im gone cuckulla.
>>344746085
Alright, stage 10 out of 56 in Moai Kun. It's still gonna be a long journey...
#12
Who even cares, and i have no idea how to beat it legit. I just flew into melee range and spammed 'shot', and the ghosts/tentacle arms couldn't touch me for some reason
>>344746597
A crime wave has spread over the city and I have three choices for missions.
I can go to the bridge and stop Quacker Jack.
Wolfduck needs to be stopped at the city center.
I can also go to the sewer and stop Liquidator.
Where should I go first?
whoa, what a qt
>>344746837
>I had this on the gameboy
Do the city anon. Strike at the heart of evil.
On a side note, where is my ship and my upgrades and what the fuck is going on.
I'm scared.
>>344746337
Alright, which fossile should I go for?
>>344746597
LET'S GET DANGEROUS

>>344747106
You got this anon. I believe in you.
Starting the gauntlet with this
>>344746837
>>344746927
>>344746950
I'll stop by Wolfduck on my way to the sewer.
I am the terror that flaps in the night, I am the onion that stings in your eye!
>>344747192
The economy must really be in the toilet, god damn.
Boom baby!
Abadox defeated. Total lives lost, 22. The game itself is bullshit, with me having to rely almost entirelly on inviciblity frames and the slowdown from spamming bullets, and the bosses are piss easy.
At the end, they make you run a gauntlet from the beginning to the end of the game levels, speeding up as you go. One touch of the walls and you die, but I got lucky by hugging the top walls and barely moving.
Another bullshit thing, is that the walls kill you, but then they give you a ton of powerups that increase movement speed, in tiny fucking hallways that demand precision movement. I wouldn't have made it past level 3 if I didn't start avoiding "S" powerups.
Fuck this game, moving on to the SNES
>>344747407

Keep at it you 3. If I can beat my bullshit shmup, you can beat yours.
>>344747306
Finally got to Wolfduck after three continues. I got three tries to beat him or it is back to the start of the stage.
>>344747782
Stage 18 with 4 bombs, this should be interesting
>>344748413
He's some raw bullshit. If I remember correctly you can only hurt him when he's small, but he's fast enough to just smack you while you do it.
Keep moving. Avoiding getting hit is more important that dealing damage.
>Archon
Fuck shapeshifters.
>>344747649
what a mess I've gotten myself into
I do like how you can pause and use your energy on different kinds of ship abilities. Music gets annoying after a while just like in Ikari Warriors
>>344748413
Figured out his attack pattern on my last try. The city center is safe.
>>344748592
When I realized you can destroy the boxes he throws at you with one shot he got a lot easier.
>>344748283
Fuck, a skunk outside must've sprayed because it's hella smelly in here now. I have pretty bad air circulation here too, so it's gonna linger.

Not sure if I'm supposed to be able to survive the game over screen.

Not complaining or anything. Whatever that was it allowed me to beat the boss on my first try.

Oh boy, here we go. Don't think I've played a NES version before.
>>344751518
Taking him out opened up three new missions. Crime never sleeps.
Bushroot may be causing strange things in the woods.
Megavolt is robbing warehouses along the wharf.
Moliarty is building some kind of machine on top of the tower.
Where should I go first?
Shit man, I don't even know what this is, but I'm going through with it. I downloaded some translated version, but I have no idea if it'll be of any help - there wasn't even an intro to explain stuff.

I am the terror that flaps in the night, I am the termite that devours your floorboards.

Good luck brother

Meant to post the title screen first. Oops.
>>344752212
A SNAKE!
>>344751945
Finally back to where I was. Hopefully mines don't fuck me and helicopters don't try dodge me.

America confirmed to exist in Pokemon universe.
Also reading signs facing the other way.
Rather fitting I guess. Also,you said nothing about slowdown. Makes action games ten times easier with Focus/Hero mode, kek.
>>344752321
so there were 2 snakes. I got one of them but the other was too strong
>>344752441
That is one harsh fucking screen

SS Anne is proving a challenge.

Time to see if he lives up to the rumors. I got nine tries to take him down. Also, seems like this game does not refill your health before bosses.

Just finished the first level. I'm playing the PAL version and it feels really sluggish. Also even the basic purple Foot Soldiers are giving me trouble. Manhattan Project plays a lot better imo.
>>344752441
so i guess i have an objective now
>>344752681
I hate helicopters
>>344752313
From what I've seen so far, the game is about jumping over pots to collect items, but now I paid some dude to go into a cave and it's suddenly turned into a dungeon crawler.

Fuck off back to your containment board
Game has no music so I'll have to make do with my 3 tb of music I have on my second harddrive. It does have a nice 80s arcade announcer telling me what powerups I got.
COME ON YOU DICKLESS FAGGOTS, I AM THE RED WARRIOR, DEATH INCARNATE!

Jesus, how autistic are you anon?
>>344752669
Most annoying boss yet. Took me five tries to take him down.
I still need to go to the tower to stop Moliarty, although Megavolt is also stealing stuff at the wharf.
Where should I go next?
wtf is Kart Fighter
>>344752957
I don't think I'm progressing, but I've found a gambling den.
