    I love how 2:08 basically implies Kyle wasn't just the Nerd's guitar guy. He was just some guy who happened to live behind the couch and wrote music to pass the time.

      His halfassed attempts at music is legendary but he has moved on now. You're watching history dude. Imagine that your mom had a boyfriend that was really cool back in the day but she recorded everything. Now your dad is helping her put all of those old videos online and you happen to watch one with that cool dude in it. That's kind of how this is except your dad isn't that cool and your mom has an entire series of videos about her boyfriends. Or maybe that's my mom. Whatever. You get it. Missed opportunities are missed... forever. You can take from this that if you're ever gonna take "life by the horns" then you need to become a cowboy and life needs to become a rodeo bull itching to kick your balls up into your girl scrotem. Maybe I'm overdoing this but still... my point is valid. Hindsight has a huge advantage and sometimes that advantage is that your worthless nerd dad mated with your hot mom and even though your mom realized her mistake you got to exist from the deal! But your mom regrets ever having let your dad put his....oh God. I'm sorry. I swear I'm working this out. I apologize.

    "But with 2, it's virtually impossible".
    Unfortunately, that line goes from funny to sad when you realise that in the NTSC version, there's a glitch in the cling winger stage where the 2 player's cling winger doesn't move, & since you have to start over when one of the toads dies, it really is impossible.

    For fun yet true, I played the Japanese version today, used warps as well so, not everything will be mentioned.
    US Version:
    Start with 3 lives.
    Normal Platforming (If you know what i mean on this)
    Turbo Tunnel is Harder
    Clinger Winger is Faster
    Bosses Have Default HP.
    Second Player has to press start to join in.
    Intruder Excluder is Harder
    Tera Tubes is Harder
    3 Continues
    If You Pause, There is a Beat
    JP Version
    Start with 5 lives
    Easier Platforming, game is easier than the US Version.
    All levels mentioned on the US Version are easier.
    Bosses have nerfed HP.
    You get the option to select 1 or 2 players before the game is started.
    5 Continues
    Clinger Winger is Slower
    Turbo Tunnel's hazards are altered and easier to avoid, way easier actually.
    If You Pause, There isn't a Beat
    PAL Version:
    Same Difficulty as the US Version
    Clinger Winger Co-op Glitch Patched
    Altered Soundtrack
    Edit 1/8/2015 - Added PAL

    Battletoads was one of the funnest 2 player games NES had. It was extremely hard, though, and definitely frustrating at times. I can't think of another game that was so consistently frustrating yet that I absolutely love. They straddled a fine line there.

    I think Kyle may well be the best actor out of the group really, a lot of his facial expressions are convincing and when he knows hes not doing too well, he cleverly hides his face one way or another, His vocals are great too during the gameplay. 1:41-2:29 Gameplay: 3:55

    For level 2 split the screen top, and bottom. Much easier. They really should have put in a 2 player mode A and B where you can't hit each other by accident. Like double dragon, or River City Ransom. Especially considering how hard this game is. Truth is a beat em' up shouldn't be this hard. This genre should be all about fun, not difficulty that makes you want to head butt your TV.
