    I remember back in 91, I asked a classmate how to beat the firebird. he said, "just keep shooting it". mind blown as a kid. loved, love and always will love this game!

    My only complaint is that you neglected to touch on the golden dragon run of the game. Anyone familiar with the game will recall that playing as the golden dragon not only gave you 2 life bars as opposed to one, but it also skipped about half of the game (give or take a few levels). This made it much easier to complete the game, while at the same time making the blue dragon much more rewarding (including an exclusive true ending, second final boss.) It was a very ham-fisted way to introduce a difficulty slider into a game of this genre, but effective and memorable nonetheless. In any case, thanks for bringing this classic of my childhood back into view for others to see.

      MrAndthoughknee this was the first game I got with my first console. Aside from Mario/ duck hunt. You are right and, I love nes but, this is my favorite. Kudos on your comment.

    I'm still surprised how far along games have come. I really like this game as a kid and is one of the few retro games I still play today.

    This game was a favorite of mine as a kid. I still can't get over the fact that the "start game" chime is the same as my door chime in my ford. Only so many people have these thoughts lol.

    OMG I remember in the 90's envying a childhood friend for having a Turbografx and it's respective version, then being thrilled as hell to find the NES version.

    Oh my god. I was watching your Gradius review just a bit ago and I was like, "Man. I bet you anything this guy would love Dragon Spirit." And lo and behold.
    This game is a seriously SERIOUSLY underrated classic shooter that I have never heard anyone mention in reviews of old classic NES games.
    This was my very first run in with this genre, and it started out so well because this game is probably my first "big boy" game because this game taught me as a person who was starting to play games that I should keep trying as hard as I can. So I ended up playing the first two levels until I could seriously get through every part with no damage. After that the game just clicked for me and I understood that sometimes damage doesn't mean I instantly lose and that I can recover and win.
    The day I first beat Dragon Spirit without cheating with a game genie, at least I think I used game genie on it, was monumental for me. I was so happy.
    You should try Dragon Sabre by the way.
    Lastly, the swamp looking level of Dragon Spirit gave me a nightmare once. I hate that stage tremendously.

    This reminds me of Cyvern The Dragon Weapons. A spiritual successor to Dragon Spirit perhaps?

    First. The music is some of the best on the NES. Second. The tree thing? Considering the rest of the Jungle level (the best music in the game btw) that tree is a moment to take a breather. Seriously, I lose a lot of lives fighting through that level. I could probably count on one hand the number I've lost to the boss.
