I swear this game is like one of the most challenging games of all times.. Its funny as hell to watch this video but it makes me love and remember this game even more now..
This is one of my all-time favorite NES games. When I was younger I mastered the game and could beat it in one sitting, with very few deaths, if any. Took a LOOOOOOOT of practice, though. Now, playing this beast with TWO players is a whole different animal...
I totally mastered this game when I was a little younger. It's hard, but it's doable. One of the keys for me was using Level 2 to stock as many lives as possible, so on subsequent plays I had more of a stockpile to practice. After that it's mostly just memorizing the levels. You also need a control pad that is super tight, like the original NES control pad...there's NO room for mistakes in most of these levels!
Такие прохождения развлекают зрителя. More TAS like this. Приятно смотреть, сделано с юмором и с удовольствием. И таки я пошел в свое время эту сложную игру: предпоследний уровень с догоняющим колесом (11 вроде) - самый сложный и кнопко(нерво)ломательный. 11 lvl - One of the most difficult. 11:07 - best part
ugh ... 11 years ago this Video! ... I remember i had this game for the Genesis ... but for some reason i never was able to beat the last few jumps to the Tower in the last Level. I played the whole game with one life ... and then could not get past that spot, lol. For some reason ... playing it years later on Emulator ... i beat it ... even first try, lol. So much nostalgica.
este juego era de los mejores que jugué en la NES, solo llegué hasta el 3 nivel me cansé de estrellarme en la nave de carreras, sé que lo de este vídeo lo hace un TAS osea un programa simulador un software, además muchas risas me sacó este juego sobretodo cuando jugábamos dos los gestos de las ranas y las patizas y puñetazos que dan xD.
Oh yes it can be done faster, but there were many moments that I did things a few frames slower to deliver more entertaining moments. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
It is loaded with modifications to make it easier. Like less spikes, more ramps so you don't need to jump on level 3, slower speed on level 3, less pits... Very different. It also doesn't bug on level 11.
12:41 - I don't know if it's just the Austalian version or all PAL versions but the log bit is not present. All we have is one long jump. Always bugged me but my brother thinks it's due to the different frame rates proably making the logs bug out on our version.
Que buenos recuerdos me trae este juego yo si que perdía muchas veces pero por suerte lo jugué en el family game y tenía el truco de arriba+star te daba siempre 5 vidas a ambos jugadores
Yes, there are 3 releases: the american one (which is the hardest, and has a bug on level 11), the european (which is similar to the american, has no bug on lvl 11 but runs at 50 fps only), and the japanese version which is the easy version.
@skrizhali It isn't a hacked rom, it's the official US release. The fceu emulator is what is modified so I can go back to a point in the movie to correct mistakes using savestates (a feature called re-recording). You need to watch the fcm movie using the correct emulator version. You can find that information on the submission file for this movie on the tasvideos website.
Honestly I'm a bit biased towards Wookie Hole. I've always loved the music in that level and it's so different than any other level in the game. Plus you rack up so many extra lives it's just entertaining. :> After that I'd have to say Karnath's Lair. Definitely a lot of amusement there.
The end of level checkpoint is located in the middle of that tunnel. You can hear the familiar sound right after I died. I guess they put it there because the beta testers were scared to go all the way to the end of the tunnel. Also, I skipped some a section there. The correct path is to go up after you get to the left part of the map, then right, then down an elevator that leads to that pit with the final tunnel.
as far as i know, it isnt nerfed in any way. the only thing different is the bug fix in clinger winger, no extra lives or any such thing like in the japanese version. By the way, do you know of any other version differences in the Japanese version?
what ROM did you use? i tried to watch a fce movie, but on the level 7 one toad misses to hit a rat, and all the movie fails. you said it was a hacked rom, but i can't find it
@phaphachboy for entertainment! it is possible to do lots of tricks in tas also the game is rather long, so the game must look rather interesting to catch & hold spectators.
Interesting. The only difference between the US and European one seems to be the bugfix of stage 11, difficulty (aside from hz difference) remains the same. Thanks for clearing that up
Oh and I noticed one more thing: 19:05 You have to explain, is that a glitchy way of passing the spike or is that very well possible on a real NES? Cause that last part with the shark and fish acting all random is the hardest part of the whole stage to us (video also doesnt show the difficulty of that). So would be nice if we could pass there the easier way next time but dont wanna mess up a recording if its not possible. Again, props for this amazing speedrun!
@skrizhali It is a TAS (tool-assisted speedrun). It plays the game on an emulator to enable precise controls to be input, allowing me to slowly progress through the game, building the gameplay while using savestates to undo the mistakes. You can see several more videos on the tasvideos website.
The Up+Start cheat isn't present in any original version of the game. It's only present in a bootleg chinese version that spread around the world in pirate carts. The game used in this video is the original version, which allows any player to spend a continue and join the game during cutscenes simply by pressing the start button.
and u saw that battletoads double dragon on this game..they changed..the music after beating the boss big blag..the music rlz...they shouls make pimple playable too and rescue just the princess
Yep, that hack is amazing. People think it is just a reworked graphic, but they don't realize the dragons have different moves and stuff. It's really impressive.
nice job FODA, this is really a fun speedrun to watch :) Ive got a few questions: First, why do u not consider 19:43 a warp? On speeddemosarchive its considered a warp and thats what i always felt it was... Second, have u been able to beat the game with someone else on a real NES (just out of curiosity)? Me and my friend had incredible problems with the final stage, it took us about as much time to master as the rest of the stages together and the video doesnt show.

9:56 Funniest moment in Battletoads history!
+fnog9 Successful field goal, punting your partner into the goal! Three points for the Toads!
😂😂😂
This is the most entretaining TAS run I have ever watched. specially the snake's level :3
Thank you! I put a lot of dedication on this one :)
I swear this game is like one of the most challenging games of all times.. Its funny as hell to watch this video but it makes me love and remember this game even more now..
I can't get enough of this video. I keep coming back to watch it again after a few days.
This is one of my all-time favorite NES games.
When I was younger I mastered the game and could beat it in one sitting, with very few deaths, if any.
Took a LOOOOOOOT of practice, though.
Now, playing this beast with TWO players is a whole different animal...
You beating this game is like this Speedrun is legit lol. Codes and hacks
15:31
"I must go. My planet needs me"
Chuck Norris and Jesus in co-op. Really nice)
I totally mastered this game when I was a little younger. It's hard, but it's doable.
One of the keys for me was using Level 2 to stock as many lives as possible, so on subsequent plays I had more of a stockpile to practice. After that it's mostly just memorizing the levels.
You also need a control pad that is super tight, like the original NES control pad...there's NO room for mistakes in most of these levels!
i just beat it myself :)
and yes... stocking lives up on lvl 2 helps a lot. I beat it using 1 warp and then a 2nd time warpless
I can't remember the last time I was so entertained by a video.
Jogo maravilhoso , inesquecível, um verdadeira obra prima gamistica...
Wonderful game...
This is both one of the most impressive and hilarious things I've ever watched.
You are truly really great master of this gamE! I neither cannot to finish it with my friend !!! You did alone. Really amazing!
I don't think I'll ever get tired of watching this!
Такие прохождения развлекают зрителя. More TAS like this. Приятно смотреть, сделано с юмором и с удовольствием. И таки я пошел в свое время эту сложную игру: предпоследний уровень с догоняющим колесом (11 вроде) - самый сложный и кнопко(нерво)ломательный.
11 lvl - One of the most difficult. 11:07 - best part
13:38 Full synchronization! Amazing!
Вай молодчаги,такой игры вдвоём я ещё не видел!))Порадовали очень!))
Of of the best games on the nes.
I miss thoose days
Turbo Tunnel and Karnath’s Lair and Volkmire’s Inferno were too satisfying.
Awesome video! This is one of my fav games ever and I can say I learned a trick or two, so definitely worth the watch : )
i wrote that while i was watching, but the entire snake level was done that way! it was awesome! ^^
9:57 GOALLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!! XD
that was least expected think :D
Jaw dropped
dyragon1984 jajajajajaja crasy
20:13 Omg, my stress level just got sky rocked!
The surf city tricks were genuis!
Enjoyed every moment of it
Hahaha these two are awesome! First time I see two people speed run this game.
The Snake Pit part is hilarious! XD
Hahaha the snake level was like the cheekiest thing I've ever seen in a TAS.
Thank you so much for this man. Ive always wondered how this game ended since ive never made it passed the 2nd level when this game was new.
The ending of Terra Tubes was beautiful
Battletoads' Olympics approved
Even when it is TAS , it is beautiful coreographed, especially the snakes.
Orange toad to green toad:"Hey buddy, I need a lift"
Green toad: 9.30
09:56, that was awesome! =D
but yeah it must be a tool assisted speedrun.. fun to watch though! ^^
ugh ... 11 years ago this Video! ... I remember i had this game for the Genesis ... but for some reason i never was able to beat the last few jumps to the Tower in the last Level. I played the whole game with one life ... and then could not get past that spot, lol.

Супер!Молодцы!Красавчики!
Oh yes it can be done faster, but there were many moments that I did things a few frames slower to deliver more entertaining moments. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
What happened at 15:31? Just because it's the elevator shaft doesn't mean... How?
It is loaded with modifications to make it easier. Like less spikes, more ramps so you don't need to jump on level 3, slower speed on level 3, less pits... Very different. It also doesn't bug on level 11.
That snake level was f'ing hilarious!
базара нет джиги, красавчики, я пальшен!!!
Lol at the blag fight ... they're stunned with fear, then sends him to the moon with one big punch xD
Как такую сложную игру можно проходить так легко и весело, ещё и вдвоём 😂😊🤘😎👍
12:41 - I don't know if it's just the Austalian version or all PAL versions but the log bit is not present. All we have is one long jump. Always bugged me but my brother thinks it's due to the different frame rates proably making the logs bug out on our version.
Que buenos recuerdos me trae este juego yo si que perdía muchas veces pero por suerte lo jugué en el family game y tenía el truco de arriba+star te daba siempre 5 vidas a ambos jugadores
Haha era exatamente essa versão que eu também tinha. Ainda tenho!
Así es lo mejor de lo mejor
Finishing with speed and style
You had me going at first I actually thought this was a legit speed run.
Respect👏
the sound of death is actually soo hilarious
how could you play for both toads? explain please
one hand for each toad?
what the technology is?
Turbo Tunnel was amazing!
I love this game!
Wow just incredible o_o Especially the turbo tunnel was completely boss... I can't even jump over one wall without dying XD
How'd you do most of this stuff? Could you post how to make these tricks work?
Yes, there are 3 releases: the american one (which is the hardest, and has a bug on level 11), the european (which is similar to the american, has no bug on lvl 11 but runs at 50 fps only), and the japanese version which is the easy version.
19:47 PAL, NTSC-J and Genesis don't have this problem but TAS runs for those versions as far as I know don't exist.
What's with the glitch where Rash and Zitz are just floating upward through the level?
I laughed so hard when Zitz got kicked into the exit.
now thats what i called "crazy frog"
~ 10.00 OMG, your snake trick are incredible indeed
Wow, I'm going to try that on my emulator. That's a really neat trick!
@skrizhali It isn't a hacked rom, it's the official US release. The fceu emulator is what is modified so I can go back to a point in the movie to correct mistakes using savestates (a feature called re-recording).
You need to watch the fcm movie using the correct emulator version. You can find that information on the submission file for this movie on the tasvideos website.
@indydriver80 It's a tas. Tool assisted. That stage is insanely hard for a human.
8:28 Rash: "surprise!" Enemy: *crashed*
And you have a right to feel that. It's Battletoads.
Okay, thanks again. I was worried when it wasn't working.
Пожалуй, одно из лучших прохождений игры. Или даже лучшее из того что я видел.
Очень круто, ребята! Сколько же раз вы прошли игру? :) :) :)
it's cool hoy you kicked pimple to the "out" hole xD
@zuschzero és akkor megkell adni egymás IP címét?
Honestly I'm a bit biased towards Wookie Hole. I've always loved the music in that level and it's so different than any other level in the game. Plus you rack up so many extra lives it's just entertaining. :>
After that I'd have to say Karnath's Lair. Definitely a lot of amusement there.
How doe Zitz come back on level 12 if he game overed on 11?
This Gameplay Is amazing!!!!
The Snake Pit had me LMAO
Most emulators disallow left+right. You might need to go through its options and check "allow left+right".
9:57 дико орнул) красиво уровень прошёл)
The end of level checkpoint is located in the middle of that tunnel. You can hear the familiar sound right after I died. I guess they put it there because the beta testers were scared to go all the way to the end of the tunnel. Also, I skipped some a section there.

what ROM did you use?
i tried to watch a fce movie, but on the level 7 one toad misses to hit a rat, and all the movie fails.
you said it was a hacked rom, but i can't find it
How did the second player return into 12 level? Maybe Up+Start?
There are different versions of the game. This was played on the US version. There is no error.
@phaphachboy for entertainment!
it is possible to do lots of tricks in tas
also the game is rather long, so the game must look rather interesting to catch & hold spectators.
Interesting. The only difference between the US and European one seems to be the bugfix of stage 11, difficulty (aside from hz difference) remains the same.

So would be nice if we could pass there the easier way next time but dont wanna mess up a recording if its not possible.
Again, props for this amazing speedrun!
On the US version, how do I start a 2-player game with 5 lives?
You are a battletoads god
Holy shit! I was all O-face at level 3 the wind tunnel. That's AMAZING! :O
@skrizhali It is a TAS (tool-assisted speedrun). It plays the game on an emulator to enable precise controls to be input, allowing me to slowly progress through the game, building the gameplay while using savestates to undo the mistakes. You can see several more videos on the tasvideos website.
How guys just mocked countless hours of my childhood. I never made it past the jets, and I never even had seen the snow level
24:52
"That's for massacreing ye gool ol' bro."
I wonder if the run's still improvable but it was great to watch.
The Up+Start cheat isn't present in any original version of the game. It's only present in a bootleg chinese version that spread around the world in pirate carts. The game used in this video is the original version, which allows any player to spend a continue and join the game during cutscenes simply by pressing the start button.
I have this version on famicom the color of the cartdrige is purple and the picture is the same as nes and some times a warb zone happens
and u saw that battletoads double dragon on this game..they changed..the music after beating the boss big blag..the music rlz...they shouls make pimple playable too and rescue just the princess
Yep, that hack is amazing. People think it is just a reworked graphic, but they don't realize the dragons have different moves and stuff. It's really impressive.
Pressing start works like adding a coin and you join whenever the other player passes a level. It costs a continue.
Looks like fun! I'll have to go to Gamestop and pick this one up.
Yes, in real time it is extremely unlikely. Read the description for more info on how TAS movies are made.
nice job FODA, this is really a fun speedrun to watch :)
Ive got a few questions:
First, why do u not consider 19:43 a warp? On speeddemosarchive its considered a warp and thats what i always felt it was...
Second, have u been able to beat the game with someone else on a real NES (just out of curiosity)? Me and my friend had incredible problems with the final stage, it took us about as much time to master as the rest of the stages together and the video doesnt show.
So did you guys take a whole bunch of speed before playing or something?
Jimmy Dark It's a TAS
Сколько играл в эту игру, но такого не видел)))))))))))))))))))))))
Может ты на сеге играл? Там 90% фишек пофикшено было.
The mega drive version is based on the NES japanese version, which is easier. There are less obstacles on stage 3 for example.
Это играл 1 человек через специальную прогу вот и все =)
Не факт, бывает задрачивают так и без всяких программ. Но синхронность двух игроков конечно впечатляет.
MJ OaS Вот именно это тебя и должно было предупредить, не возможно настолько до пикселя совместить синхронность двух людей, почитай описание, это специальная программа с помощью которой делают подобные записи, с ее помощью можно сохраняться и загружаться покадрово и сделать такую запись. 0:22 тут написано, что игрок 1 и сделано 19000 перезаписей.

SAT? What do you mean by that?
insane gameplay
level 11 bug id fixed on Rare replay on xbox one..and there is a patch on romhacking net for battletoads rom...
Yeah that patch fixes a lot of stuff. Amazing work by _Ti.
