Ghostbusters

I never met anyone who didn't like the NES Ghostbusters game until the AVGN came along, same with the first TMNT.

I know Ghostbusters isn't very good, but I still enjoy driving the Ecto-1.

The NES port of this game was definitely the worst.

I think I remember it refilling your health if you open up a door and a ghost doesn't pop out.

I think it was a good concept that could've been executed a little better. I like that it's a sort of action-tycoon hybrid rather than a typical sidescroller. I like the idea of seeing the whole city map. The ghost alarm makes it feel like you're responding to phone calls from the city and picking where to go. The driving stages could've used a little more variety; ditto the ghost-busting. But as it is, it's not bad.

If that's the case, it definitely isn't worth it. 90% of the time you just take a hit instead

ftfy

>>3957863
When has a 2600 port ever not been the worst?

>>3956873
james figured out how to beat it

It's exactly the opposite. You NEED to open the doors, that is almost the only way you will survive. I don't think it's random, or at the least it might choose between a couple different configurations, but each time I've beaten the game it was because of using the doors. You might need to just do some old fashioned trial and error and write down which doors are good vs bad and then remember that for next time and see what the pattern is. I'd say just search a FAQ but I'm sure no one cared enough about this game to make one regarding the doors. But tl;dr they are really helpful.

I just opened every door and for some reason my team was able to be knocked down four times by ghosts. The configuration is different each time, I remember that much.

But I did it, /vr/!!!

This game disappointed me so much as a child

Graphics-wise, maybe.

What's the original version of this game? It's a direct copy of the C64 Ghostbusters game that was released 6 years earlier. Was the C64 version the original?

>>3960281
Yes, the C64 had the original.

One of the few games where the SMS is the port superior to all.

It's not that uncommon for the Master System to have the best port.
