Welcome to the Retro Game Gauntlet, gentlemen.
Start at NES, and work through in the following order:
NES
SNES
GB/GBC
Megadrive/Genesis
Turbografx16
DOS
NeoGeo
GBA
Commodore 64
Playstation 1
You have three days to complete the game without assistance (each game gets three days, though RPGs are allowed a week due to length).
Select your system here:
http://s3kr.it/gauntlet.html
You can also do it manually if you don't trust the random number generator:
http://s3kr.it/systems/
Rules:
1) Savestates are allowed ONLY for the purpose of taking screenshots and ONLY if your emulator/game in question does not have a pause function.
2) Rerolls are allowed under the following conditions:
-The game you get requires some sort of hardware functionality that cannot be accurately emulated to complete (eg, Boktai)
-The game would otherwise require cheats, hacks, or alteration of the software to complete due to a bug (eg, Cheetahmen II)
For games that have a high score or no end, the rule is
>if no high score has been established, set a goal and beat it
>if you.re playing something another anon already has a high score on, beat their high score
>if you are playing extended rpgs/pokemon/whatever you get a week (Depending on the game: needs to be asked in thread)
AND BRING ME SCREENSHOTS PARKER

I'm I just a retard or are the graphics supposed to look all garbled?
>>4046490
that was quick
Never even heard of this, seems to be a late mediocre nes beat-em-up based on some forgotten cartoon. Guess it could be worse.

Nice, not sure how the nes version is but fantasy zone is great.

Don't think I'll ever do a full gauntlet run, but maybe I start a game tomorrow.
Man this thing is still alive. I remember trying to beat Kid Niki 3.

Maybe I'll do one of these one day, as I do game reviews so it might be a good way to get inspired.
