Summer Games Challenge 2016
Re: Summer Games Challenge 2016
I hear that the Souls series probably pulled more from Shadow Tower than King's Field, so that is interesting to think about.

Levels 1 to 4 of Ninja Gaiden are no problem. Level 5 is where I start taking it in the ass.

From the back of the Shadow Tower cover art:
"THERE ARE LEGIONS OF DEMONS INTENT ON RAPING YOUR SOUL AND LEAVING THE REMAINS"
That's... that's meant to be a selling point. Oh god, what am I getting my precious pink ass into this time.

PLAY KING'S FIELD.

That's the most fucking metal thing I've ever seen on a game's packaging.

Seriously! This should have been the official ad:

As if I'm not batshit insane enough already, this might be the game to finally push me over the edge.

PLAY KING'S FIELD.

Let me know when you get to the part where you realize that Shadow Tower sucks.

Well...Maybe you just didn't have the right frame of reference.

Akumajō Dracula (Famicom Disk System)
Fire Emblem: Ankoku Ryū to Hikari no Tsurugi (Famicom)
Guardian Heroes (Saturn)
Hikari Shinwa: Palutena no Kagami (Famicom Disk System)
Moon Patrol (various)
Ninja Gaiden (NES)
OutRun (various)
Super C (NES)
Wonder Boy (Sega Master System)
Zaxxon (various)
Ninja Gaiden is done. It only took 25 years. Holy shit that penultimate boss was driving me insane. Next Summer game is likely Fire Emblem though I may take a break from this Challenge and play a few other things first.
