It's a carry-over from Taxans first installment where all characters had this quality. In Capcom's version this was all but removed except for Duke. Fair trade off in my opinion considering the difficulty of the first installment.

Agreed.. once upgraded SE kills almost anything and any boss with is double tap slide sword attack. The trick is to use the broken path ways on the map to generate unlimited power ups for all 6 characters. In dying and regenerating through big bear your health also increase through envelope upgrades
He's a great, powerful character, AFTER you power him up. Unfortunately, he's "hot garbage" when you first get him! (Starts out with only 2 bars on his life meter!)
@@christabel2003 I was 5 years old so I never took into account those type of stuff so I always used the cool looking ones, and snakeeyes and storm shadow were my faves lol Funny I never really watched the show but loved playing this as a kid
had many great hours with this game. The first title by TAXAN was way more challenging. Loved the job CAPCOM did with this but once laser was at level..its a wrap....especially if you have duke leveling his laser up to 4. The only guy that can shoot up lol.
Here's a little known fact: Taxan and Capcom USA are only the publishers of the GIJoe games for NES. Most Taxan games, like both of the G.I. Joe games, LowG Man and Burai Fighter, are developed by an outfit called KID.
I liked some of the ideas of the sequel - more weapons and characters but I didn't like the way it played - felt stiff and unresponsive. Also it lacked good boss fight designs of the first game. Also - General Hawk has a jet pack in the first game.
I’ve always liked the first game better even with less weapons and moves. They took out basic moves from the first game like the grenades, firing upwards and downwards and a unique rifle per each character. They made some of these exclusive to one character (Duke). Also, I always disliked how little life the characters have at the beginning. That first sub boss probably frustrated a lot of people from further playing it. Snake Eyes had only two bars... why? The first game’s characters had much more life at the begging why take it away? Cheap difficulty if you ask me...
As you get the more powerful weapons, always be mindful of escalating ammo usage! The Machine Gun expends 1 "round" per shot; but the Pulse Rifle uses 2, the Laser Rifle takes 3, and the Missile Launcher a WHOPPING 4, per shot!
I played this as a kid like 5years old and it was hard for me since I was new to gaming and I learned everything on my own lol Beat it a few times but I didnt know about the healing guys..I never healed my self many of my men died lol but I still beat it. I might play it again since now I am older
I used to think this game was super tough. it's actually pretty damn easy to beat. the fact you can basically bypass most of the levels is kinda lame. I took the lower route, fought the one boss, then Destro, then cobra commander. powered up the fist and laser rifle to max on the way. Then totally abused the health refill by pressing down select. can get to cobra commander so easily and getting thru that final stage and beating him is a piece of cake. sort of a let down. Didn't even have to switch Joe's
I'd have to agree with you. First time playing in 95 and had beaten the game through destroys path without risking the other levels. Eventually got bored and begun exploring the other levels.
Is there any way to beat the sub boss with the big hammer/club other than ducking and letting him kick you a few times? Love this game but it's always bugged me that I could never beat him without taking at least 3 bars of damage.
Yes bro. But only when you use Snake Eyes double tap slide sword kill twice. The same with all bosses. SE makes easy kills with his slide kill. Unfortunately with others you'll just have to cope with the clobbering. Unless you have Missle attack weapons from Road kill or GHs laser weapon attack.
I remember this game when it came out. G.I. Joe was light years ahead all other bull shit 8bit games except Castlevania, Supermario bros. And Megaman franchise. Then I look at the developers of this game.................... Capcom. That explains why it’s sooooooooo Fucking good. I love you Capcom.
Maybe, I would like to see GI Joe game in multi-player like Battlefield 1941, Counterstrike, Unreal Tournament, or Star Wars Battlefront where players can use variety of vehicles, weapons in GI Joe universe.
It's based on how many points you score on each stage, and each stage has its own requirements. I recently posted a guide about it on GameFAQs if you'd like more info.
i gave up on this.. not because it was hard. but because my ocd said *MAX EVERYTHING* and hated switching to level up the useless wave gun one. ps the ninjas are shit in this game
Radio "Dendy 33SRS" is the time of the 90's, when after school we hurried home or to friends to play Battle City, Contra or Turtles ninja. And it really was a new reality. Now it's nostalgia.

good question... wish japanese.american would re release gijoe series... the story seems interesting... and leave all those horrible hollywood movies apart
In the comics, he joined Cobra to find out who murdered his uncle. Once he found out it was Zartan, he switched to GI Joe. He originally served in Vietnam with Snake Eyes and Stalker.
I thought they cauld have made this better every fucking time programers make a jijoe game it's like they don't give a shit and make it suck ass i haven't seen a gijoe game worth the franchise name it's a shame the empire strikes back NES classic was fucking amazing what is this shit even the music score has nothing to do with gijoe🤔😐😐😐😣😣😣😣

This soundtrack is ROCKING
One of the top five on the NES
For me the best all time
I was always amazed that Dukes special ability was to shoot down and up XD.

@@christabel2003 And that factor making Duke very useful when it comes to fighting Cobra Commander in the climax.
And Duke was best with basic weapons - rifle and fists.

Thanks. Btw, that Laser Rifle as you can see, is a HUGE difference maker when fighting these bosses!!
Once again snake eyes is underrated and underused...
I know right. Back in the days I used him with General Hawk and swapping between storm shadow or wet suit.

Unos de los mejores juegos de las nes... Que recuerdos
Justo en la infancia que buen juego ❤
As a GI Joe fan, all I want are HD remakes of these NES titles.
What a game!! And shit went real hardcore but excellent game. Good old Capcom
Good old KID, the people behind both NES GI Joe games.
@@Bloodreign1I was gonna say. This ain't a capcom game although I'd say it's up to their standards
had many great hours with this game. The first title by TAXAN was way more challenging. Loved the job CAPCOM did with this but once laser was at level..its a wrap....especially if you have duke leveling his laser up to 4. The only guy that can shoot up lol.
Here's a little known fact: Taxan and Capcom USA are only the publishers of the GIJoe games for NES. Most Taxan games, like both of the G.I. Joe games, LowG Man and Burai Fighter, are developed by an outfit called KID.
When Taxan went out of business in 1991, all of KID games became rejected Taxan games.
Agreed played both games as a kid and the Taxan version was more kick ass compared to GIJAF.
The map and gear up parts reminds me a lot of bionic commando.
The game's format is similar to that of Capcom's Bionic Commando series, with an overhead map of the various stages.
I liked some of the ideas of the sequel - more weapons and characters but I didn't like the way it played - felt stiff and unresponsive. Also it lacked good boss fight designs of the first game.
Also - General Hawk has a jet pack in the first game.
maggit And the graphics were a lot shittier.

The Machine Gun expends 1 "round" per shot; but the Pulse Rifle uses 2, the Laser Rifle takes 3, and the Missile Launcher a WHOPPING 4, per shot!
I find it strange that Snake-Eyes has the 1991 uniform on but is shown wielding the blades worn across the chest of his 1989/Taxan uniform.
Great Game with a handful of characters to play.
Still better than Megaman X7 or Megaman X6.
all i can say is wow dude you bring me back to my chilhood memories
I played this as a kid like 5years old and it was hard for me since I was new to gaming and I learned everything on my own lol
Beat it a few times but I didnt know about the healing guys..I never healed my self many of my men died lol but I still beat it.
I might play it again since now I am older
Fantastic game, I played it in my childhood. Hi from Chile
I never saw a thundercats Nes game. I think Konami. Capcom or Natsume would have done a damn good job on that
Never got one either damn shame really
Especially nowadays, although, nowadays I wouldn't trust Capcom with something like Thundercats.
Got to get tough! Yo, Joe!
I used to think this game was super tough. it's actually pretty damn easy to beat. the fact you can basically bypass most of the levels is kinda lame. I took the lower route, fought the one boss, then Destro, then cobra commander. powered up the fist and laser rifle to max on the way.

Big Bear but no mention of the Oktober Guard?
Favite game
So Bison got his head stomp from Gen. Hawk....
Some of the characters from the other G.I. Joe game for NES, were missing
Is there any way to beat the sub boss with the big hammer/club other than ducking and letting him kick you a few times? Love this game but it's always bugged me that I could never beat him without taking at least 3 bars of damage.

They should make a twin stick dual shooter remake
This game have good BMG or OST.
Is this game worth me playing? Never saw it before.
It's worth playing. Deceptively easy tho.
great game!
Wow! Wow! Wow!🤩🤩🤩👍👍👍👍
I'm a girl but I like this game!!!
I remember this game when it came out.
G.I. Joe was light years ahead all other bull shit 8bit games except Castlevania,
Supermario bros. And Megaman franchise. Then I look at the developers of this game.................... Capcom.
That explains why it’s sooooooooo
Fucking good. I love you Capcom.
Q
12:20- Why not just use your gun and shoot Overkill?
Best sound tracks
Maybe, I would like to see GI Joe game in multi-player like Battlefield 1941, Counterstrike, Unreal Tournament, or Star Wars Battlefront where players can use variety of vehicles, weapons in GI Joe universe.
Isint simplir was to just blow the whole insland on start? Rather clearing whole island from cobra agents by fist and foot? :D
Liquidazot They could've fleed. Plus they want to be sure that they clear all resistace and recover what needs to be recovered.
Looove it
Nice! Thanks for the tip sir.
@cubex55: How did you get a "Level Up" after the very first level, or are those completely random?
It's based on how many points you score on each stage, and each stage has its own requirements. I recently posted a guide about it on GameFAQs if you'd like more info.
Does anyone know if these games got released in Europe?
I never played this. Is it tough to conquer? So many NES games are tough.
Knee drop from kickmaster ?
Yes :)
Wetsuit- the lamest GI Joe ever to exist and they make you get him first
i gave up on this.. not because it was hard. but because my ocd said *MAX EVERYTHING* and hated switching to level up the useless wave gun one.
ps the ninjas are shit in this game

Why Storm Shadow is a GI JOE? 🤔
good question... wish japanese.american would re release gijoe series... the story seems interesting... and leave all those horrible hollywood movies apart
In the comics, he joined Cobra to find out who murdered his uncle. Once he found out it was Zartan, he switched to GI Joe. He originally served in Vietnam with Snake Eyes and Stalker.
The font that they used looks like System 16 font
Good game but... I prefer the first game :)
Totally! Better feel, music and roster.
Wait...Storm Shadow is with the Joes and not Cobra?
+SMAXZO he flipped back and forth a few times, hes kind of a dick like that.
I thought they cauld have made this better every fucking time programers make a jijoe game it's like they don't give a shit and make it suck ass i haven't seen a gijoe game worth the franchise name it's a shame the empire strikes back NES classic was fucking amazing what is this shit even the music score has nothing to do with gijoe🤔😐😐😐😣😣😣😣
Esse comercial do tik Tok é uma merda
эта часть скучновата. отсутвие харизменных боссов.
