You are amazing! Not only speed running one of the toughest nes games around, but doin it so chill. Also that's another reason I am Fan. You are so chill. Thank you for doin what you do
I hadn’t sat down and watched one of your SR videos in awhile, but I couldn’t resist when it’s Ninja Gaiden. Unbelievable, man! And your dry, calm demeanor just adds to the charm. Keep up the great work.
2 names synonymous with greatness: Arcus at Ninja Gaiden, and Pabst Blue Ribbon, the award-winning premium pilsner at being one of the beers of all time. Cheers to you sir, looking forward to your inevitable world record.
... so youtube recommends that I watch a young cowboy playing an old ninja game at high speed... alright. I remember back when the first Batman movie had come out (I think), my brother and I tried playing a Ninja Gaiden arcade machine. We were terrible (but we were 11 and 10, and didn't have much experience playing arcade games or video games in general). Thanks for the nostalgia!
Man, 8 year old me that couldn't even get passed the first boss back in like...1991 maybe, is jaw dropped stunned haha. Strong work. That was an awesome run.
Enjoyed watching brought me back to my childhood . Such an incredible game for its time with the cinematic cut scenes telling a very 80s story of ninjas, demons and magic . The cutscenes I’m sure motivated us all to keep plugging away at the very challenging gameplay . Few games were more satisfying to beat . I even recorded my play on vhs to prove to my friends I could “one life” it . ( not nearly a good a you and today I’m not sure I could beat act 4 , reflexes not the same on old azz hands 😂) )
This is extremely impressive. I was 13 years old when his game came out. I had a score of 990,000 And I kept playing and It flipped to all zeros and started all over again.
Dear Arcus, we know you will retake the top slot. You can definitely do it.
i think he’s toast
@@WalczykYe of little faith
Arcus is the Babe Ruth of this game.
Idk. Retro Runner is pretty good.
@@KornPop96 retrorunner thinks Arcus can go a lot lower. he's rooting for him

Man if I’d seen a run like this in 1990, I wouldn’t have believed it was a human. Just incredible!
Ninja Gaiden is why I subbed to your channel while ago! You are the greatest at this game in my opinion 🔥
Good klunks, bleeps, bloops, and bzzzts.
Great job!
Getting good bleeps and bloops, not just one or the other
You are amazing! Not only speed running one of the toughest nes games around, but doin it so chill.
Also that's another reason I am Fan. You are so chill.
Thank you for doin what you do
Big time congrats dude!
You are the Bob Ross of speed running, dude :) Love your videos
Before I click an Arcus video I always
“AAAAAAAND KLUNK!”
Congrats! I remember watching your old 11:38 videos. Crazy to shave 4 seconds off those!
and even crazier that he has to shave off another 2 seconds for the WR again.
@@robertcatania1120 he lost 2 seconds on the 5-1 hiccup, he can make that up.
This whole soundtrack is still amazing.
And then we spin...
A masterpiece !!😊❤😊❤
Congrats on the new PB!
My Favorite Speed Runner is still delivering the goods! Nice work (once again) Arcus on a mind-blowing run!!!
77560 recorded attempts. You are a machine Arcus.
If you turn your passion into meditation then you can do any apparently
Plus another 40k+ that weren't recorded in that batch! Arcus is a legend.
Sounds like severe depression
@@AboveEmAllProduction It's his job lol
@@AboveEmAllProduction Sounds like projection.
Haven’t watched Arcus in a while and I’m so happy he popped up today. Good job!!! That record is coming back
Congratulations Arcus! Well deserved! Always love seeing you get any sort of PB!
I'm glad to see Arcus settled into his new home and posting more videos! And a Ninga Gaiden PB to boot! Yay!
And klunk! I can't wait for more garden videos!!!
Ninja Garden
Lol ningar garden
Ninja garden love it lol
I hadn’t sat down and watched one of your SR videos in awhile, but I couldn’t resist when it’s Ninja Gaiden. Unbelievable, man! And your dry, calm demeanor just adds to the charm. Keep up the great work.
Nice work on the new PB, and it's good to know there's still a nice chunk of time to save in there.
Congrats Arcus! I will plant a jalapeno in honor of this occasion.
New record incoming, you are a machine on Ninja Gaiden and always pushes the community.

Go go go go Arcus! Grats on that PB!!
Congrats! Closing in on that world record spot yet again.
That practice is paying off man! Nice job on the PB!
It's been quite awhile since I saw one of you NG runs on UA-cam. Always a great watch. 👍
I hope so much you will take the WR :) Great work!
Way to go on the PB Arcus! Getting closer to the world record!
This will always be amazing to watch.
This is unbelievable, Respect my friend
Very nice. Childhood me is like “how is this even possible”
Nice run! 🤠

Congrats Arcus, You are the Best!!!
Even though 5-1 could have been better, just seeing you handle it with your usual calmness is great to watch.
Yet more inspiring moments. Love the classics! Thank you!-)
Love it you're still on this grind. Can't wait to see you back on top!
Yes . Very good arcus 👍👍👍.
Well done
Hardest-working man in speedrunning! Your wall climbing has really improved.
It will always amaze me how easy you make this game look when it’s anything but easy. GG and keep chipping away that time.
Practice can make anything possible
Got to see this run live on Twitch. Was a good run. Took some time but worth it in the end!
Like 3 weeks of running it 8 hours a day
Congratulations on this amazing PB!
Congrats on the PB! You inspired me to beat this game a couple years ago. Didn't speedrun it but was quite proud of myself, nonetheless.
Aww yes. Arcus is at Ninja Gaiden again.
Congrats Arcus! What a thrilling run!
Outstanding, Arcus. Really impressive.
Congrats Arcus. See you next.
You’ve really upped your jump speeds and overall physical execution. Keep grinding, 11:33 is right around the corner!
Nice glod there at the end too!!! Well done Arcus!
I'm glad to see you still enjoying these games so much, after many years!
Congratulations Arcus !!! 🙂
One of the best nes players of all time. Not to mention, my personal favorite. Great run arcus!
Gj Arcus GG hope u get ur WR back
Just in time for another arcus video love this guy 😆
Awesome run man! Long time gamer, new fan of your channel!
Well done, sorry i didn't get to witness it live! GG as always
A real beast! Job well done, sir
2 second's from the World Record!!! your cool!!! LOL. love your channel yo!!!
Congrats, Arcus! Hard earned!
Gratz on the PB!!
He said "kitkat and rice cake stage" and now my childhood has been permanently disfigured. Thanks, Arcus.
Grats on the PB, Arcus!
Oh man without that mistake in 5-1, that could’ve been a new wr!
He is 2 seconds behind. That cost him at most 1 sec. The WR is getting pretty close to as high as it can get.
Man, 8 year old me that couldn't even get passed the first boss back in like...1991 maybe, is jaw dropped stunned haha.
Strong work.
That was an awesome run.
It was the bottomless pits that got me.
Awesome! Grats Arcus!
Truly a spicy pace, @6:37 held you back this time. But you got it!
Congrats Arcus!
Nice job, Arcus!
ArcusGG - moving ever closer! Can't wait to see you take that title back!!!
Well deserved. You’re so close!
wow congratulations, that's a PB after only getting back into the game just a couple of days!
Grats on the PB!
U da man Arcus... 👍
Arcus! Ah man, heck yeah.
You are an artist!!!!
I love your sound effects to remember the timing, smashsmashsmash!
The patience to go through hours of resets and then nail a pb is quite impressive. Keep it up!

GG! Thrilling run!
Arcus is one of the few dudes bringing the world back towards the light.
That was crazy. I beat this game once as a kid and died a million times in the last two levels. And you did it in 1134!! Hats off to ya!
This is extremely impressive. I was 13 years old when his game came out. I had a score of 990,000 And I kept playing and It flipped to all zeros and started all over again.
C'mon Arcus, you got this!
Almost WR again Arcus!
Nothing like a good Krispy Klimb to get your day going.
Bleep…bleep…bleep…good bleeps - Arcus 2024 🤠 👢👢
Dude, your a beast. Keep it up!
we out here in 2024!
I love how you have your own lyrics to the NG music as a nemonic device. 😊
If there was a thing as a cowboy ninja, Arcus would be their leader. Go Arcus, you got this.
This guy is literally the Bob Ross of speed runners.
Omg congratulations!!
The most hard of NES. Good job, cowboy.
Wow, incredible!
Arcus taught me to use oral sound effects to time my speed runs.
Life is better if you use oral sound effects for everything
is your pfp phantasy star IV
@@TeleportBushido yes, good eye!
See you next!
I feel like final bosses would be disappointed by how many of their henchmen *didn't* have to be killed.
I wouldn't have believed if I didn't see it and I saw it. Wow! One of the hardest games I had played as a kid
Great run!
congrats buddy
