He not only explains stuff that make his speedrun amazing but also the look in his eyes when something goes wrong is priceless. That was the beauty of those games, frustration at its peak and the final battle was epic. It's sudden death at its best with the final boss and you can tell by watching his eyes when he lands the last blow after seeing how Dracula was jumping towards him and if the game glitched or slowed down he would lose (only a real NES gamer understands that)

This randomly popped up in my recommended list, but I'm glad I watched it. It gives me hope that there are speed runs and runners who do things by the book. In other words, the main reason speed runs are a huge turn off to me is the use of bugs and glitches, which I consider cheating. I'm probably in the minority on this, but that is how I feel about it. Speed runs that only utilize the game mechanics, like getting hit to advance, are completely acceptable in my book. This was probably one of the few extraordinary speed runs and with one of the most memorable games on the NES. Great job all around and nice commentary as well. Hopefully more people will do speed runs only using the game mechanics or at least make it a separate category so we can see who really is the fastest without cheating.

@brycepalmer3782 8 жыл бұрын

also this guy has alot of skill. THIS GAME IS SO HARD. i first played it on the gameboy advance nes classics version which had a save feature. if you made it to a stage, you could start from there. (if you died at stage 3-2, you start at 3-1) And it was so hard!!! like clocktower was hard so many enemies crossing the screen and getting whacked. i did make it to dracula, but then my brother beat it and the game save started over or something so i never did it myself... but i have an nes now and castlevania, maybe ill beat it one day....
