Corrections:
1. The ZX Spectrum is pronounced "Zed Ex Spectrum", not "Zee Ex Spectrum" (Sorry)
2. Sophia is Maximo's queen, not princess (Thanks Clint!)
3. From Maximo's Senior Game Designer, William Anderson: "David Siller only gave the name to Maximo Ghost to Glory. I designed nearly 80% of the game and I still have all of my original game designs. Capcom Japan didn't want me to follow Ghosts 'N Goblins as a template, but I needed a hook for the game to be successful."

My favorite story from this series was from the mid 2010s. A few of my students complained that some of the games that existed on the old Nintendo were too basic and easy. So...I told them to beat the first stage of Ghosts 'n Goblins and tell me when they finish. The amount of aggravation and pain...I can remember that so clearly to this day.

That's a nice story. Todays "kids" often underestimate the old and rather simple games. In the most cases Videogames got a lot easier with the time and the graphics got better but as a kid of the 80's I prefer the classics - games like Demon's Crest for example. The 16bit aera was the best and most interesting time, that never happens again. I'm glad that I whitnessed it!

Just finished watching through the rest, and awesome job with this documentary! I had no idea about all these other iterations of the games throughout the year passed the snes aside from Maximo and the psp, so it was really nice seeing how much the series really lived on (or attempted to) throughout the years, and the behind the scenes stuff to compliment it 😄

Thanks so much, glad you liked it! I definitely preferred the Firebrand games much more when I was a kid also since they were a bit more forgiving and had the cool RPG mechanics. Now that I'm older and a bit more patient though, I fell in love with the mainline games and began to appreciate the great design and concepts that made them work. I'd love to see a modern reimagining or remake of the the GQ series though! Thanks again for watching!
I loved Ghosts n' Goblins Resurrection. I got it on the Switch at release in 2021. I don't care if some critics didn't like it. I find these days I have to make my own judgments on games because it can be a very personal assessment. The boss music in Resurrection is infectious.

Ditto and my favorite of the 3 spinoff games. Always wondered why there wasn't a sequel which would've been so easy to do since Phalanx sealed himself in the crest of heaven or, if you will, time because of it being of Japanese origin "heaven" could translate to time. Say a successor to Firebrand or humans had found the crest and unknowingly started something with Phalanx on the future, treacherous demon he was from the beginning he could prey upon them for help in being released. It could've went from there.....I'm only 2/3 of the way through the video at this point where Maximo was axed sadly and since DC I lost interest really.

I was 8 when Super Ghouls N Ghosts came out. I remember that everyone that I knew who had a SNES also had a copy of it. Literally everyone had it. I always played it at my cousins house and friends houses thinking it was impossible to beat. But, I just kept on and on and on and fell more and more in love with the series. Now I am almost 40 and it has become one of my all time favorite game franchises along with Castlevania and Final Fantasy and I can finally beat it! I love Super Ghouls N Ghosts so much that I even got a complete in box copy for the Super Famicom based solely on the wonderful cover artwork and the instruction manual being filled with beautiful illustrations. You are so very correct in saying how important the series is as a whole to the world of gaming. This video was extremely well done! It was wonderful sir.

Thank you, glad you enjoyed it! Yeah, Fujiwara was such a huge part of video game history. I feel like he doesn’t get enough credit these days next to people like Miyamoto, Inafune, and Mikami.
Thanks for making this documentary. Great game. One of my favs. Mesmerizing

I came across this as I've watched a couple of similar documentary type videos on video games. I found this very informative and it kept me interested until the very end. Great video!

This is fucking rad. I was very impressed by just the intro alone. Ty for putting so much love and refinement into this video. I am simply gobsmacked by this introduction.

Thank you for an incredibly well produced video. Daimakaimura is one of my all time top 10 arcade games. There is just something very, very special about the atmosphere of this wonderful game.

Thank you so much for watching! Daimakaimura is one of my favs too. I spent a lot more time with the Genesis/MD version though. The stage and boss designs are amazing!

Same here. It was the primary reason why I imported a Japanese MegaDrive back then - that port looked and felt soooo close to 'arcade perfect'. Played the game to bits.
I have no words to describe how increíble this video is. Awesome job 👏 Ghost & Goblins is my favorite NES of all time!

Really happy you enjoyed it and thanks so much for the kind words! I grew up with GnG on the NES myself and played it constantly. I couldn’t actually finish it until I got older though, haha. 😅
Absolute masterwork of a vid...I mean movie! 👏👏
