Batman Tutorial With Commentary (NES)
My Joker fight explanation got cut off in the uploaded version of the video, so I will explain the strategy here. It will take alot of practice with save and load states as I did that boss run some years ago by playing the joker fight isolated with save/load states on an emulator. The idea is to keep your head between the pistol and the bullet it fires. There is always a gap between the pistol and bullets when they fire. Move slightly forward or back as the joker moves and keep your head in that gap while throwing batarangs continuously. It is extremely difficult to pull off to that level of only getting hit once, but by trying to play that way you can end the fight with half your health remaining or atleast a quarter, more consistantly than if you just trade hits with him until he dies. That can work too but its way less consistant. Even after I beat him with only getting hit once, I was never able to duplicate that again but I was able to beat him more consistantly by attempting that method. I didnt spend a huge amount of time on the Joker to get that run, maybe 20-30 minutes just fighting joker.
One thing I didnt mention is that when you defeat the semi final boss before Joker, he stays dead when you get back to that area again. So just focus on taking him out your first time up that tower, and worry about joker the next time you get there. The rest of the details are below:
Around 1 hour 38 minutes to beat this game again. I used save and load states to minimise penalties for death, since this is meant as a demonstration video. I also have the version with no commentary uploaded. Its the same exact playthrough as this, just with game sound. This playthrough is stitched together, so I added in my Joker boss fight where I only got hit once, as the main attraction of the run. Thats an area that kills alot of progress for players.
Deaths edited out.
Stay tuned !!
