1CCBBH - 615. Ghosts 'n Goblins / Makaimura (2 Loops Clear)
32I'd already done Ghouls 'n Ghosts, but hadn't done a full 2-loop clear of the original Ghosts 'n Goblins yet... mainly because there's a lot of things that annoy me about the game, especially the control. Crouching is so clunky, and heaven forbid you ever need to crouch and/or stand up around a ladder.... Ghouls is just a more fun game to me in pretty much every way. I felt more inclined to go after this when I learned how much easier the original Japanese version was. There's a lot of little changes on Stage 6, but the big thing that differentiates the Japanese and World/US versions is that the Satan bosses on Stages 5 and 6 have HALF as much health, only requiring 4 direct hits instead of 8. They're by far the hardest part of the game in the English versions because the health increase combined with their general unpredictability is a deadly combination. This run was done on Japan Revision G. Will I go back and do a World/US romset at some point? Eh... never say never I guess.

1CCBBH is a stream project in which I'm attempting to clear as many arcade games as possible on 1 credit, without continues. I am currently going through a bunch of games I've cleared before, and eventually will be tackling some new games I haven't gotten a 1CC on yet.
1CCBBH is streamed live every other Monday (bi-weekly) at 5pm Pacific / 8pm Eastern on http://www.twitch.tv/lordbbh
