"He's reached the stairs. Call off the chase." "But aren't we trying to stop him?" "I'm not being paid enough to chase a guy who can kill me in one kick."
First video game I ever beat. I was like 9 or 10. I ran around the house celebrating. I will always remember this game, especially because you take damage when they grope you.
Man, these sounds and images bring back so many memories. I had the First NES that came with Robotic ROB. This was the only other game I had besides Super Mario, Excitebike, Gyromite and Duck Hunt. It took me over a month to get to the point where I could get to the last level. (That was playing everyday afterschool almost all night) Back then, games were so new, we didn't have the muscle memory of having played a million type games. Our brains and bodies were getting use to it. I was 11. It looks extraordinarily simple now...but back in 1985...this was one of the hardest games to play!
I used to play this as an arcade game. They had it in my local Pizza Hut. We would go there every Saturday after little league baseball double headers in the 80’s.
Wow so much this. Same thing. Pizza Hut around 15 minutes from the house. Had to cross over 6 lanes of traffic Frogger Style to get there. Personal Pan pizza, coke, and 2 quarters for the Kung Fu arcade game. Core memories.
When I was a kid my dentist's office had a room with free coin-op arcade cabinets to entertain us while we waited. This and Rush 'N Attack were frustrating enough that getting called for your actual appointment came as a relief. 😂
I spent a college tuition in quarters trying to beat this game as kid when it first hit the arcade in the 80’s! 😂 So many great and unforgettable childhood memories that I wouldn’t trade for anything in the world are connected to this video game. ❤️ Thank you for taking me back to that time! 🏆
One of the greatest days in my life, was when I finally kicked the crap out of the boss. Yeah, my life is that sad, but in my defence when I did complete this game for the first time I was only about 32 years old.
A lot of people don't know that the arcade version was a tad bit different from the actual regular Nintendo version. I played both as a kid and enjoyed them.
On the first level when you fight stick man (boss), you can just walk all the way up until you’re right up against him. His stick can’t touch you at all, but you can’t touch him either. Just do low kicks until he backs up, then move up against him again. You can beat hime almost instantly. I learned that in Nintendo Fun Club Magazine (the free precursor to Nintendo Power).
i MISS nintendo power! actually I miss all gaming magazines. getting a gamepro, nintendo power or whatever was the best part of going to the grocery store back in the day! Might get a new demo disc or two
This reminds me of the movie Road House... You can solve all your problems by kicking them. 😄 And those generic purple guys... they just want a hug. 😪😆
To show my age this was in a cabinet at my bowling alley i went to as s kid before the nes was released. I remember kids lined up with a pocket full of quarters me included to take there chance slaming them button. Thanks for sharing brings back fond memories of my childhood
Lol I got this duck hunt and super mario as my first nintendo games. I loved this game . I even have a pic of me playing in when i was a kid in the 80s
This one looks fun! I'll always look back fondly (and amusingly) at the martial arts mythos of the 70's, 80's and early 90's. Anyone who mastered one style may as well have had superpowers, and no one could ever fact check anything without the internet.
@@bbqchucken Wouldn't it be great if there were a reboot of Chakan released with a modern game engine? I'd even be satisfied if the Sega Genesis version was remastered, and they left it at that. 👍
I seem to remember it either not doing damage or not doing very much and that crouch punch I accidentally did took like half the health away almost immediately so I stayed with that
This was the first NES game I ever bought. I remember the jump kick taking off half of any bosses life bar (except the magician on level 4 whose head would fall off but take no damage) but the Giant on level 3 would lay the smack down with his next hit if it didn't kill him. The final boss would sometimes block it though. I also remember getting an extra life at 50,000 score, then another at 150,000.
When your army of minions, stick swingers, knife throwers, attack midgets, potted dragons, and Captain Boomerang all fail, just get Shaquille O'Neal to come in to kick 'em in the face!
God I remember playing this for hours. It wasn’t hard to entertain me. That damn game Kid Icarus gave me blood shot eyes and my mom became concerned that too much video games isn’t good for me. Damn you Kid Icarus!!! 😝 But eventually my mom got tired of me bitching and moaning about not getting to play my games like my friends got to and she just said keep the lights on while I am playing. Oh ok mom everyone knows you need lights off to focus on that 13” TV. I remember the day I got a 19” screen magnavox now I was big time 😂. Ah sweet golden memories. Back in my day a kid with a 19” color TV was living the good life 😂.

Growing up with Nintendo in the 80s and early 90s, my dad had a rule for me and my brother; you can’t get a new game until you finish the old one. My cousins had a copy of kung fu that I borrowed and was able to finish the game in around 10 minutes demonstrating this to my dad. He relented saying that we could go to the gaming section in our local department store that next Saturday afternoon to get a game of our choice. Foolishly my brother and I chose Battleoads and never ever got another Nintendo game from my dad 😂😂😂😂
Oh jeez, I tried Battletoads again for the first time since I was a kid and have no clue how we beat some of those games as kids. Or maybe not beat, but idk how we even got very far in them. Many are very unforgiving

maybe it's my imagination, but it feels like the kick gets them from further away than the punch so that was my go to
Helped me beat Ninja Gaiden
Mortal Kombat '22 had it's flaws, but watching somebody getting cheesed by Liu Kang repeatedly low-sweeping them made up for a few of them.
