2 minutes in and I'm picking my jaw up off the floor; I remember this game, but I was stuck in the kill everything mindset. I gotta dig out my NES. Great video. Smile and enjoy it. :D
Having grown up with cabinet games shows my age for one, but I know and have played hundreds of these games and this one is one of the top5 hardest I have ever played. This guy makes it look like a cake walk :O
I still play this even on ps4 capcom arcade and I can beat the first 2 lvls in one life but anything after that is just pure pain. You gotta remember so much on this game it’s awesome tho and this game will forever hold a beautiful place in my heart
is it just me, or is firebomb speedrun the funnest way to play (on hardest) you can do ridiculous things with placing the flames in order to hit enemies all around you glorious
Arcade games were a special era. Back then, if you wanted to play the best games with the best graphics you had to actually leave your house and mingle with society. Now you can just sit in doors alone like a hermit.
Right? And plays Ghouls 'n Ghosts (or any game for that matter) this damn well 😜 It's hard to look cool doing something as dorky as competitive speedruns of old video games LOL
6:106:10 friend, here you don't need to kill the pig. On the penultimate pig, you must jump on its head, the damage will throw you to the platform above.
This is incredibly impressive. This game requires precision especially with the spawn points so great stuff. I have a question, on Belzebub second time around, you had the armour and and the special weapon which is more powerful in that mode and can cut through weapons an enemy forces, it seems you got hit on purpose what was the tactic behind that? But just to be clear this was really impressive and great to watch
Thanks for watching this old video of mine. The intentional hit on Beelzebub is to use the invincibility time afterwards to stay close to the boss for a potential quick kill.
Man... This was the first video I found after spending the past two hours playing, and I didn't even make it past the first piece of the second board. SERIOUSLY impressive. I'm curious though, what controller are you using? I'm looking for good sticks for my Raspberry Pi, haha.
I like all of Hori's sticks - I've only chose to own them. Though I did win a Qanba Drone which is serviceable for a low end arcade stick, so I can recommend that. I use the Hori VX-SA for 360, Hori Soul Calibur V stick for PS3 and Hori Soul Calibur VI stick for PS3/PS4
It's different for everyone. The execution in this game can be somewhat difficult. Mostly, it's game knowledge that helps. Just play games you like, have fun, examine your mistakes, and you'll improve naturally.
Nada mal Carnal.. Bien jugado.. FELICIDADES..!! Saludos desde Guadalajara Mexico a todos los fans de este juegazo de su majestad CAPCOM.. Has jugado "BLACK TIGER"..?? Es buenisimo tambien..
I would have thought speedrunnere would use the sword, more damage and I didn't think that the range would be a big deal, but that's before I knew how crazy fast you can mash the knife
wow brother it takes me about 20 hours to pass it to me, and I see that you spend it in 16 minutes wow it is fantastic, and worth admiring, I have a doubt, for which console is that version of Ghouls 'N Ghosts?
The hardest difficulty doesn't change a whole lot of the game. It will be at higher difficulty more often but that isn't a huge game changer once you know the high difficulty patterns. That is in reference to the games dynamic difficulty system which maxes out if you survive for a few stages typically and go back down a notch when you die, to put it basically.
This game is hard as fuck! Luckily on the Switch version, I can rewind it before the points where I die and then continue, if it wasn't for that, I'd be fucked.
@@neoxaquas cheers gonnna check it out. what impresses me is the amount of patience that it seems to reequire, but i never speedrun so i dont know what im talking about
@@neoxaquas i kind of enjoying watching it, when i see good speedruns, and mostly i find nice those ones of old 16bit games, i get a similar pleasure i get from a recorded nice piece of music
You know a speedrunner's good when he can make a game as brutal as Ghouls n Ghosts on the hardest difficulty look simple.
I just wish I could beat it at all!
@@socialistprofessor3206 I came here just to watch how to beat it.
Bruh.. he was going ham lol 😂 jeez he killed it.
Damn i used to play this in arcades when i was a kid and never seen the first boss
Without dying at least once XDDD
Dude made this look like Barbie’s horse riding adventure.
It’s nice to see what the second level looks like.
Everybody be talking about how good he is, but the OST.. damn. O-O
I dont know why arcade button mashing is so satisfying listening to
ASMR
This was the first horror game I ever played as a kiddo, binge drinking to the memories in December 2020.......
Noice
2021
best run i have ever seen on any platform
That was the best Speedrun that I've ever saw. Amazing.
Insane
I remember beating the 1st loop, and then the 2nd loop happened, and I quit. Then I just looked up the ending haha.
Id rarely get past level 1 as a kid.
Great to watch this
These old games
When I play them today I have the instinct that theirs fall damage lol
Wow, congratulations... super crazy. Damage boosts and all! Cool to see the original arcade version too.
Always come back to this speedrun. Simply amazing.
2 minutes in and I'm picking my jaw up off the floor; I remember this game, but I was stuck in the kill everything mindset. I gotta dig out my NES. Great video. Smile and enjoy it. :D
Impressive af.
You made Hardest look easy, great run!

Amazing run, definitely world record class O_O
that was a pretty fine run
Thanks :)
This is so insane. You're amazing dude!
"Get the Knife."
is it just me, or is firebomb speedrun the funnest way to play (on hardest)
you can do ridiculous things with placing the flames in order to hit enemies all around you
glorious
Arcade version of this game is much cooler. The graphics are quite beautiful and the stages way more interesting
That was amazing. I actually consider this and ghosts n goblins the fathers of Dark Souls.
YES, the maps and enemies are veeery similar haha, this game for sure made the FS guys who they are
Because they are.
Dark Souls, prepare to REALLY die
Arcade games were a special era. Back then, if you wanted to play the best games with the best graphics you had to actually leave your house and mingle with society. Now you can just sit in doors alone like a hermit.
That worm boss at the end of stage 4 is the hardest part of every run for me
Awesome run!!! Congrats man!
remembering the old times
Find you a man who looks this good playing GnG
Right? And plays Ghouls 'n Ghosts (or any game for that matter) this damn well 😜 It's hard to look cool doing something as dorky as competitive speedruns of old video games LOL
all the rage contained to finish this game, worth it
6:10 6:10 friend, here you don't need to kill the pig. On the penultimate pig, you must jump on its head, the damage will throw you to the platform above.
Thanks! I'm aware of that. SInce I was going for deathless I didn't do some damage boosts.
I played this game on the sega mega drive and it took me 5 hours to beat and you just did it in 16 minutes
The first level of Ghouls n Ghosts basically = my Sunday Walk with all the wind.
This is incredibly impressive. This game requires precision especially with the spawn points so great stuff. I have a question, on Belzebub second time around, you had the armour and and the special weapon which is more powerful in that mode and can cut through weapons an enemy forces, it seems you got hit on purpose what was the tactic behind that?

LOL, did in 16 mins what it took me as a teenager months to complete.
And on hardest diff too. Well done
0:58 Cyclops awake.
Speed Runner: I will end this cyclop career.
The lovely sound of coin op buttons...
Wow u are THE ghoulsn ghosts speedrunner
I thought this couldn't be beaten yet you made it look so easy!
My favorite game beaten into submission by a real champ
You are very great and crazy!!!
Wow, beating this game is a challenge it’s self, but speed running...... that’s another story
Such a gorgeous game
Agreed! The spritework is phenomenal
Excellent... peace from SoCal ✌🏾
This run just lacked some coke and pizza to be complete.
you don’t want to know how many times this guy has played this game 😎
Man you killed this one !!!
Man... This was the first video I found after spending the past two hours playing, and I didn't even make it past the first piece of the second board.

Awesome! How many weeks or months is necessary to train in order to become such a good player?

I salute you, sir. Superb.
My dad made this look like a piece of cake whenever he played this
I usually try to get the magic weapon early on. Never occurred to me to keep a knife until the castle.
pretty impressive, but can you do it with the fast forward up? that knocks off seconds pretty easily
Wow....SUPER IMPRESSIVE!!!!!!! A true master.
Legendary. Beaten like a boss!
Man must have played this game 16 hours a day for months to become this good lol
I don't even recall the last time I seen the arcade version it looks like it's much harder than the console version a lot cooler looking too
Elite player. You destroyed it
Nada mal Carnal.. Bien jugado.. FELICIDADES..!! Saludos desde Guadalajara Mexico a todos los fans de este juegazo de su majestad CAPCOM.. Has jugado "BLACK TIGER"..?? Es buenisimo tambien..
Black Tiger es muy bueno. Quiero ser mejor en eso. Gracias mi amigo. (Yo no hablo espanol, Perdóname)
+neoxaquas To bad dude.. You should try to learn a little.. But thanks a lot for your answere.. You are an amazing player man.. L8er..
that third boss looks like the first kirby´s dreamland boss
Awesome Run!!
It took me a lot of time to beat this game twice in a row
The red demons seem so much easier to defeat on the arcade than on the nes version.
I think you're confusing this game with ghosts n goblins bro
super speed 😆
Congraturation!
I can't even manage the game like that and he does it in 16 minutes
Are you playing with arcade stick? I think I can hear the buttons
You gotta get the psycho cannon Aka the problem solver on the second lap with the gold armour
Maestro,eres grande,este juego me cuesta mucho trabajo y usted lo hace ver tan facil👍👍👍👍👍👍
la práctica hace la perfección, ¡puedes hacerlo!
I wouldn't even get close to this with an invincibility cheat.
Congraturation
Hey man, great run. Just curious, is there an autosplitter for livesplit for this game? Specifically the genesis version. Thanks!
Thanks. And I don't believe there is an auto splitter for the genesis version.
@@neoxaquas That's really unfortunate. Thanks
I would have thought speedrunnere would use the sword, more damage and I didn't think that the range would be a big deal, but that's before I knew how crazy fast you can mash the knife
It is faster for stage 1 boss for sure, but it doesn't do more damage to beelzebub for some reason. 1 per hit instead of 2hp.
Do you know where I can find the rom of the Japanese version of the game without getting any viruses and whatnot?
i love wrecking his shit like that 😂
I never made it past the 3rd level this is cool.
The real King Arthur of Ghosts n Goblins would actually be as good as this guy plays him. Most other gamers just keep getting him killed.
Amazing! Good job.
I had the Genesis version. Holy shit this game was hard
this game's such a fucker, my childhood nightmare
12:23 In Argentina we call that "zafaste de puro culo!"
U should be really proud bro really big respect
you ever plan on speedrunning super ghosts n goblins? Or ghosts n goblins on the nes?
Already did Super Ghouls n Ghosts. GNG nes, no.
wow brother it takes me about 20 hours to pass it to me, and I see that you spend it in 16 minutes wow it is fantastic, and worth admiring, I have a doubt, for which console is that version of Ghouls 'N Ghosts?
This is the original arcade version, played in MAME, an arcade emulator. Thanks for viewing.
Wow! You made it!
Amazing!!!! Congratulation !!! :)
Impressive run! Better than TAS O.o
Not bad for your first time

Que versión es? Es de mame? Es de megadrive?
I own the original arcade machine... but I am very happy when I beat stage 1. :D
this was impressive, axctually i watched it but still can't believe it. what are the best qualities of a speedrunner?
Ability to practice efficiently and effectively, I'd say. There's also a book about speedrunning, check it out on www.fangamer.com
@@neoxaquas cheers gonnna check it out. what impresses me is the amount of patience that it seems to reequire, but i never speedrun so i dont know what im talking about
@@lojun4932 If you like racing games those do count :)

O que podemos deduzir amigos??? Que o saiko ta fudido!!!
O comentário que eu tava procurando KKKKKKKKKKKKKKK
Lots of coins for that moment congrats because it cost
Que maquina,madreeeee
Spectacular!
Finally this game is just simple and easy... at least he make it look like!
looking at him: ... it seems so easy ... playing the real game: ... not even a lifetime would be enough ...
