Very skilled play through of a very hard game. It's so satisfying to shoot a "missile" through an entire screen of enemies running at you in a row like they're in a conga line.
Love this game. My cousin had it in the mid 80s. Picked up a copy for myself in 2023. Brings back memories. Ladders are the biggest threat in this game. Stay away from them while jumping or attacking since the control scheme is up for jump; often you get stuck on a ladder and are a sitting duck for the enemy.
I loved this game as a kid. Now that I'm in my 40s and been in the military myself, I come to realize that his command is either seriously incompetent or must really hate him to send him in with only a knife.
What about the Rush’ns, who make their men jog slowly - and barehanded - towards the guy with the knife, and only let the yellow guys have a gun? That’s some Battle of Stalingrad shit right there!
Rush'n Attack was also the US arcade name as well, FYI. I've owned the PCB twice (it's cheap for an arcade board), and it also came on the Konami GBA collection.
Probably the toughest thing about this game was how in single player, if you died, like a lot of other side-scrolling games of the time, it would punt you back to the beginning of the level and you had to run it all over again. There WAS a "cheat" you could do to make it easier though, which was to start a 2-player game, then simply let the 2nd player die. In 2-player mode, the game just lets the dead player respawn immediately instead of kicking you back to the start of the level (because naturally it can't do that if the other player was still playing), but it would let you keep this advantage even after the 2nd player was already dead. Some other games I can remember this trick working on included the Rescue Rangers NES game, as well as the ultra-hard Ninja Crusaders.
Great Gameplay bro. It’s always good to see when someone perfects how they conquer an old school title like this one. I’m one of those guys myself growing up in the 80’s as a kid. Serious Keep up the good work man. There’s still people out here that would consider gameplay like this a masterpiece 👍.
This was one of me and my older brothers very first Co op games along with battle toads, and we could never get past level 3. This music sticks with me even now though.
Was a really unique Konami game in that you weren't shooting(for the most part) your enemy but getting up close and personal with a blade. Had a lot of fun with this one back in the day. Great playthrough Alex.🤘🏻🤘🏻
37 years ago on Christmas! I used to cheat and set it to two player this way if I lost a life I would continue from that point and not get sent back earlier in the board.
The NES looks pretty tough, but fun to play! [like its arcade counterpart - The latter's available on the Archive Archives] Rush n' Attack/Green Beret (Both versions) has to be one of the foremost titles with a heavy Cold War theme during the 80's to early 90's. Others I can think of are with Jackal and Task Force Harrier.
Child hood memories, played and was my favourite game , around 1996, used to play in video game stations by paying 1 rs.. Crossing 2bd stage very difficult...did not crossed 2nd
Legend has it that in the Famicom Disk System version of Rush 'N Attack, there were hidden underground passages that can be uncovered when certain land mines were detonated by a weapon. They were taken out of the NES version, apparently.
Bravo!!! Masterful! this what most parents want to be able to do in front of their kids XD now do it with ghouls n ghosts! mega man!!!! but seriously to be able to memorise as well as carry it out from beginning to end!!!!
I've always wanted to hear someone make a metal version of the BG music in this game. The soundtrack absolutely kicks ass, as did most Konami games in general.
I remember as a kid loving that you could beat the first level by stabbing the hell out of the right side of the screen. The enemies just suicided right onto your knife.
Probably the only Konami game that I have never played... And now I want to experience it lol. Apparently, this is a port of an Arcade version. Correct?
I used to play 2 Player mode just so to avoid the "Going back a bit after death" crap, because in 2player mode, if you die, you respawn right away the same place you died

That last battle is too much 🤣 Take out an ICBM with only a knife, until the enemy sends an unlimited number of guys at you whose only job is to run straight at you with an RPG and get stabbed, giving you rockets you can use to destroy the missile. Gotta love the 80's 😂
Part of the reason this game is so damn hard is that (if I'm not mistaken) when you jump over the landmines, the jump button is select. Having to move your hands off the controls to press select each time and while you were in the air enemies would spawn.
My personal favorite. I remember being a kid and that invincibility song made me actually feel invincible.
such a great game great memories playing this
To think the only one is in stage 3, so once you hear it, and clear the stage, you won't hear it again the rest of the game.
When you aquire a grenade, it makes the same sound as when you shoot those cannons in contra

Thank you so much, sir 🫡
Rush'n Attack is basically Contra with knives instead of guns. Need I say any more?

@Burnt Fishy Lol yeah that's what I meant.
@@rjcupid Thanks!
Much harder than Contra
If Contra used up for jump and you couldn't change momentum midair... then, yes
The first nes game i ever played. Christmas morning 1987. Zelda was 2nd. Great memories. Before that it was all atari. And colecovision.
No Mario?

11:19: This song is such a Konami musical hidden gem. The first time I got that far and heard this song it blew me away. Love it.
Konami, back then, had a way with their tunes. This is Castlevania level shit
It's sounds like something Muse would make honestly crazy its a dope tune
Yeah for NES music this sh!t goes hard.

@@MrSprattibaggs Yeah but they are Russian so they are more expandable than bullets.
😂😂😂
I mean... destoying helicopter with a knife at 08:36 was pretty badass, lol.
Which branch?
Good game, was pretty hard for me back in the day. Took a while to finish and learn all ins and outs to play it well...
The awkward and fixed jumping made the game extra difficult
I remember when i used to play this with my grandpa, may he rest in peace.
Rush'n Attack was also the US arcade name as well, FYI. I've owned the PCB twice (it's cheap for an arcade board), and it also came on the Konami GBA collection.
I will cry about those days 😢
Good play. Remember playing this as a kid, never finished the whole thing.
Brings back memories!!! Konami always had the best music.
For me its a toss up between them and Capcom. Can’t go wrong with either.
What an appropriate game to play at this time.
I don't think this guy is gonna save Ukraine.
@@wordman3624 very doubtful
@@wordman3624 if anyone can do it, NC can.
I came here just for this comment.
I must agree that the timing of this upload is quite ironic with what's happening right now... One of my favorite Konami NES titles for sure.
After countless hours spent on the game with my friend as a little kid, I finally get to see what level 3 looks like.
I remember saving up my allowance to buy this game in elementary school. I was so stoked!!!!!

Man i completely forgot about this game. I just got a dose of nostalgia that made my soul smile.
This was one of me and my older brothers very first Co op games along with battle toads, and we could never get past level 3. This music sticks with me even now though.
Co op was great but if your teammate wasn’t good it would kill your chances of going far in the game
“Rush’n attack”….what an apt day to release this 😢
Was a really unique Konami game in that you weren't shooting(for the most part) your enemy but getting up close and personal with a blade. Had a lot of fun with this one back in the day.

This is a classic. Loved playing the arcade version but this one is better.
this game hits different in 2022
A day after uploading the video a very real Russian Attack happened... ... It really hits different, it hits hard.
@@PrekiFromPoland hence i wrote this comment
I was looking for this game all my life, I played it while I was 3~4 years, now I'm 30 and could not remember it, chat gpt brought me here. thanks
Same
This Is a masterpiece. I've played when i am a child
That level one music takes me all the way back to being 6 years old.
You make it look so easy, never saw the ending before, that was actually pretty cool for the day.
It is such a missed opportunity that you don't get to stab the nuclear missile to destroy it.
Very nice playthrough man. I never got past level 4. Thanks for showing this!

I mean come on Rush'n Attack.. they weren't exactly trying to be too cryptic with a title like that in reference to the cold war.
Child hood memories, played and was my favourite game , around 1996, used to play in video game stations by paying 1 rs..
Crossing 2bd stage very difficult...did not crossed 2nd
One of my favorite NES games of all time and it had some of the best music in an NES game.
I remember this game being a lot harder when i was kid. This guy beat it under 20 mins.
wow i remember this game when i was a kid bring me back.😂
That paratrooper strat was amazing, good work
He freaking kicked the helicopter and destroyed it with one kick lol😂
I used to have this game on 4 in 1 multi game NES Cartridge along with Contra 1 (24 in 1 for different levels and power)
i love how the bazooka projectiles just trip guys off the screen 😋
this game was one of my favorite ❤❤❤
One of the few times I prefer the NES soundtrack over the arcade. Great game
If only we had UA-cam back then. lol😂😂 took me 35years to see this ending

Posting this during the Ukraine crisis. But anyway, it was a good game. Reminds me of Bad Dudes mixed with Contra.
The 2nd level music always got me pumped up
One of my favorite arcade games
The pistol is so OP that it comes with its own theme music. Shame there's only one of them in the entire game.
Hitting gliders with knife!
Remember playing this at my friend place when we where kids, good times ^^
I am a big fan of the C64-version! This one looks cool, too. Classic game and still good today.
I always remember this game...
Well this is a bit timely

Rush' n attack hits different this year .
That’s for sure!
.....
NES should have kept this game name as Green Beret!
First konami game i played and beaten
For those who don't know, there's an amazing remix of this game's soundtrack. It's from overclocked remix, by an artist named (goat).
I've always wanted to hear someone make a metal version of the BG music in this game. The soundtrack absolutely kicks ass, as did most Konami games in general.
I love that everyone is just running and if they pass you they continue to run lmao.
How did he destroy a helicopter with a knife at the end of level 4?
The entire game could be beat in 15 minutes. Amazing.
Knowing the game by heart, this guy seems legit. The stairs are the worst enemy.
12:12
bad guys: “hey, look, a gun we could use!”
other bad guy: “nope, that’s only for the good guy”
This was also know as Green Beret on the best gaming console in the world, the ZX Spectrum!
I remember as a kid loving that you could beat the first level by stabbing the hell out of the right side of the screen. The enemies just suicided right onto your knife.
Better music than the arcade.
I was thinking the same thing. Some of those NES tracks went legendary.
Çok iyi hatırlıyorum zamanında çok oynuyordum bu oyunu ne günlerdi be şimdi nerde böyle oyunlar
At the end of each stage he climbs over a barbwired fence instead of simply passing it on the right...
Rush n Attack is ABSOLUTELY AWESOME and STUNNINGLY AMAZING
Classic Nintendo game with Spectacular graphics and STUNNING gameplay
Very fitting to release this today, haha.
This was called Green Beret in our 8 bit Nintendo Family Computer

You jump with up on the d-pad. It gets problematic when you jump and get stuck on a ladder.
@@mr.g4990 oh it was up, even so that's almost just as bad as select.

mmm it doesn't hit the same without that kickass military drum song
this game has also thirty lives code, right?
