Like many of Rare's best games, it looks, sounds, and plays phenomenally, and requires absolute perfection to stand a chance to beat it. It's a fantastic title that really pushed the NES, but it really forces you to focus and master it for any satisfaction. It's not a casual game by any means!

I wonder how many times I raged quit this game as a kid. The racer part of the game always made my controller jump out of my hands and against the wall lol

As a kid this was the one game on the NES that I was never able to complete. Many hours playing and on a good day could maybe could get as far as the second last level. But so many parts of this game required absolute perfection with no room for error, so it was one of those games only got close to the end a handful of times. Finally I've seen the last level and what i missed!

These levels are a mystery to me. The game was too difficult for a 13-yr-old at the time.

Dang, as a kid I only ever made it to arctic caverns, never even came close to beating it. Kinda glad, it would have taken years of practice go beat the whole game!

The one thing that kills you the most in this game is that a double tap causes your toad to run uncontrollably for a headbutt, and many times you need to move in very tiny and very quick increments only to see your toad dash into spikes, pits, etc.

Battletoads on nes is a very good game. Very Good Music, Very Good Graphics, Very Good though hard Gameplay on Beat 'em up, Platforming etc.!

Just watching you play some of these levels my heart sinks into my stomach especially rat race! Holy hell they don’t make ‘em like this anymore! The puzzles, mazes, and memorization skills are off ten charts. Well done. Seems they took a lot a lot of concepts from TMNT games such as the hoverboards, surfboards, and falling through platforms quickly while avoiding instant death from walls closing in and improved upon it so much , without lagging which always dragged out the fun of TMNt NeS releases. also the falling through platforms thing is done in Mega Man but never quite as intense as rat race). You’d think the NES had blast processing like the SEGA lol.

Hardest game ever made, Jesus Christ

Very nice job there, especially at last checkpoint of Terra Tubes and Rat Races. You also pulled a lot of risky moves lol, I even got nervous by watching it.

Awesome channel! Just discovered this cuz I randomly wanted to see a life force playthrough (well done BTW). This game was sooo hard, I don't recall if I ever beat it, I remember getting pretty frustrated at the 'Volkmire"s Inferno" level... Where I'm currently paused. I guess I'll see if the levels after this refresh my memory... Seriously though, I just browse through some of your playlists and the amount of content is unbelievable. Respect

Before KZread, it would be like, "If you can't make it far in a game, you wouldn't know what you're missing."

Great playing you did when you get to the boss in the "Rat Race" Awsome 👏👏👏

I really did beat the turbo tunnel once!! I was about out of lives and hit game over in the surf level. You kinda get into a rhythm with the music, and that part where you jump without a ramp was the trickiest for me.

That rat race stage increased your hand-Eye coordination as a kid. Thanks to this game.

I managed to beat it only once on the actual console, way back in the 90s... not many modern games can compare to this one in terms of difficulty. Battletoads & Double Dragon was a much easier game for sure. ;) Would love to see more NES/FC longplays of difficult games like this one, makes for a good show!

Oh that one has horrible rng. You have to learn to attack the worm things in the water and to lead the sharks away from that opening so you can hit the checkpoint before the second wheel chase segment.

My favourite & only NES game that I ever owned other than SMB & Duck Hunt which came with the NES, every other game I ever beat were rentals. I chose wisely ☺ They did this game dirty with that animated pilot though 😂 I feel that the top score of 999,999 should jump to 1 million when the game is completed because you can achieve that top score well before the end. Great game, NES GOAT as far as I'm concerned.

My hat's off to you you make this look so easy one of my favorite games is kid growing up but it was tough... when I finally completed it I thought I Ruled the World LOL

Holy crap! I loved this game!

Was so into this game as a kid having seen it in Nintendo Power. I remember getting it for my birthday, thinking the first stage was OK, and everything going downhill from there. The second stage was a total departure, and the third...I must have spent weeks trying to clear the Turbo Tunnel stage, even trying to memorize the layout from the maps in NP. I kind of feel like Battletoads and Cuphead are similar: a great idea that was ruined by an insane difficulty level, and the need to deviate from what people (or at least I) wanted: a straight forward side-scrolling platformer/beat-em up. I can never understand why developers shove multiple genres into a single title and force it on the player. To those that finished this game (I only got to the water stage), I applaud you!

Hey it makes you get your money worth in playing time. Only way to beat it is dedicate a shit ton of time. I’m kind of like you in that their was a point where I couldn’t dedicate more time. I’m the inferno level was it for me. The fact I made it past the snakes though was a miracle the last room is a bitch and the way this guy did it I believe is the most difficult way of getting through that room. No disrespect to those who have beaten it but the time out into that is sickening in my opinion! Too much video game for one person. Still I love the game and everything about it. Def a good challenge for your mind.

Rat Race blows my anxiety through the roof. XD

Follow up from my comment last year-- 1) Volkmire's Inferno (Level 7) was the Level that caused me the most Game Overs (2nd was probably Rat Race--Level 10). I had to use the Warp in Karnath's Lair (Level 6) to skip THAT headache. You must've REALLY got your A-Game on in this playthrough! 2) In Terra Tubes (Level 9) how are you able to approach the robots without them blowing up on you?! Every time I got too close, they'd self-destruct and OHKO me!

I’d like to have a conversation with the developers of many of the 8-bit games. How were we as kids supposed to beat these things? I loved my Nintendo but the developers of the era had a really messed up idea of what makes a game good.

Allegedly, it was so people wouldn't easily finish rented games. Apparently some Japanese versions of games are easier because rental was rare or non-existant there. However I can also see those times simply being videogames still finding their full footing after exploding among as a masses (when you look back, the leaps forward made in terms of visuals and gameplay were incredible those years) and game designers were still "learning".

One of the most difficult 8-bit games to play, especially the Turbo Tunnel.

I guess quarantine has been rough for this guy.

Is nobody going to talk about how the ship in the intro scales like it's on an SNES!?!?

The Clinger was easy to beat 1 vs 1. And it was so gratifying. After he killed me 1000+ times.

I've never made it past the turbo tunnels without warping.

Great game play and sorry to point this out but you missed my favorite part of the game at 10:10 where you were supposed to run into that pole that has that glowing at the base. The warp speed would have taken you one level ahead . That was always my favorite part to try ❤

15:54 I would die like that intentionally just because it was so hilarious.

This brought back a lot of childhood trauma. For some reason I didn’t recognize anything past the snake pit! Well done!

The pause menu music in this game is best.

Arctic caverns stage reminds of Ghouls'n'Ghosts level a lot.

According to a comparison vid I saw a while ago. 1 out of 15 beat this game. That's 6.667%

Jogo top, achava muito difícil pra época, mais sempre que podia arriscava ums play

That level is awful. If it wasn't for one or two jumps in the last stage, I think it would probably be the hardest stage in the game. It was for me, at least.

I can’t believe someone actually beat this game

Has Anyone else noticed the attribute clash in this game like at 0:47 (around circle), 1:33 (Arms) and 17:43 (Around grey spikes). Now that I've seen it, it's really annoying me. Slightly better design could've of negated it to an extent. The NES is not the ZX Spectrum (although with the Speccy, the attribute clash is part of it's personality). Haven't played it though so if I play it, I will be able to filter out the attribute clash (if I have fun that is)

There's way too many race or riding theme's not excluding the bungee jumping, snake, and surf stages, and non of them are fun levels either.
