Let's play Ghosts 'N Goblins for the original Nintendo in today's RetroReplay.
3Joe plays through the original Ghosts 'N Goblins for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES). This game was extremely difficult when I was a kid and I want to see how well I do as an adult!
Ghosts 'n Goblins, known as Makaimura ("Demon World Village") in Japan, is a platform video game developed by Capcom and released for arcades in 1985. It is the first game in the Ghosts 'n Goblins franchise, and has since been ported to numerous home platforms.
It was a major commercial success across arcades and home systems. It was among the top ten highest-grossing arcade games of 1986 in Japan and the US, the year's sixth best-selling computer game in the UK, and NES version sold over 1.6 million cartridges worldwide. It initially received generally positive reviews from critics. It is often cited as one of the most difficult games of all time, and retrospectively it has been considered one of the greatest video games ever made.
The player controls a knight named Sir Arthur, who must defeat zombies, giants (referred to as "big men"), demons, forest spirits, and other monsters to rescue Princess Prin-Prin, who has been kidnapped by Astaroth (also called the Devil or Great Satan), king of Demon World. Along the way, the player can pick up new weapons, bonuses, and extra suits of armor that can help in this task. The bosses on each level include cyclopes, dragons, and powerful demons referred to as Satans.
The player can only be hit twice before losing a life, which results in having to restart the level, or starting at the checkpoint if the player has reached it. Furthermore, the player will lose a life if a level is not completed within a set time limit. After defeating the final boss (The Devil), the player must then replay the entire game on a higher difficulty level to reach the genuine final ending.
