@@rellik187redrum it was a rare game im surprised we had it when we did. My brother and i were blindsided by this game as kids. It was so intimidating challenging and rewarding, with awesome music
I actually recorded this game and Batman on VHS cassette because of friends not believing i finished the games. They were very difficult , now yeaRS LATER i dont know how i did it, because i cant even jump and move properly
When I was little, I was in completely in love with this game. It was thus one of very few games I had ever been able to completely finish. This music brings me back big time =D
This game is awesome, and from the NES probably the best graphics ive seent out of it, absolutely fantastic looking animation. The sound track is great as well.
If you take into account not only that this is a game based on a movie, but that it's based on a sequel, this is a suprising achievement. Not that hard, not that long, but a really fun game, one which I completed several times.
One of the NES underated gems. Great graphics, ability to control your jumps and fun soundtrack. Sunsoft may not have had a lot of games, but most of them we're amazing. Oh, and a hilarious movie to boot.
Batman, Gremlins 2 and Fester's Quest were three absolute gems from Sunsoft on the NES. Probably the 3 best-looking games on that console. And the musics were awesome too!
Honestly, Gremlins 2 is kind of perfect for this because when you have a ridiculous and over the top movie like that, you can really give a developer license to just do whatever the hell they want, which Sunsoft kind of did here (though actually sticking decently to some of the story beats, and putting excellent effort into cutscenes).
@@Adolgos01 There's a few. LJN wasn't so much a developer studio as it was a publishing label, and though mostly what they did was hire a small studio to just bang out some crap for cheap, occasionally they did hire a talented studio who actually really did give a damn. My favorite example is True Lies, which sticks reasonably to the movie for a 16-bit game, and has some pretty solid gameplay. It's hard as balls, but the action is really intense and exciting, when you learn the controls and get into the flow of the game, it's very fun.
Good to see someone acknowledges this. Sunsoft's music is legendary though. Batman Return of the Joker and Journey to Silius, for example. JtS was going to be a Terminator game, but they couldn't get the license. Such a shame. Also, don't forget Rare. They made Battletoads, RC ProAM, Cobra Triangle and Captain Skyhawk on NES. All are great games. Try 'em if you haven't already.
I am amazed at how far I made it when I was little. I didn't think I beat the game, but I remember all of it. When I saw the spider Gremlin version, I instantly was back in my room with my friends watching me play. We played this game, then Mario RPG (getting to the ship riddle which was hard when your 8ish) and then Mario 3 all night until we beat that, too. ah the memories lol
I swear 8 bit music was so much better than what we get today. Songs like these and streets of desolation from Batman NES, they’re just unbelievable music pieces
Bought this one for my game collection many years back, truth be told it is one of the best movie to game translations on the NES. Sunsoft's track record in those days was pretty good till the 16 bit era when they started farming their games out to other developers, or licensing some pretty bad games from other developers for release.
Agreed million fold. :) I still remember this game when I tried to play it with my friends to the end. Always that time the level 2-2 was awkwardly hard. :3
I remember playing this before school all those years ago and my parents called up to me telling me I have to leave now and I got up and ran down the stairs and slipped and had a real bad fall. Whilst I was out and my dad giving me mouth to mouth resuscitation I come back and got myself with it and the whole time I was out I was having mad crazy visions of this game. Very surreal and every time I think of this game I think of that crazy ass experience
This was one of those games people dont really remember, but was actually pretty good. Probably wont see many new games like this one ever again since 2d is extinct now. Also gremlins is kind of a gone fad
I really like the game and the graphics. the company that made the game also made both batman and batman returns on the nes. A true classic. I wish that I was born in the 1900's so that I could experience the game for myself from an amateur perspective.
Nice to see Gremlins 2 on NES. I like this version. I just played it on my Commodore 64 on my UA-cam Channel. Very interesting to see that the versions differ on both systems. Thanks for your video and stay healthy, Andira
I know that Sunsoft was responsible for this game, and that SNK was responsible for Crystalis, but the jumping sound seems very similar to that of the Rabbit Boots and the Flight spell from Crystalis.
How the heck did you go through the last boss fight without taking a hit? I didn't watch the whole video, but I don't think I ever saw you buy an extra life. Once I figured out those Gizmo dolls in the shop were extra lives, it made the game a lot easier for me.
Nice video! Pure nostalgia to me. Remarkable that I never noticed back in the days that like 99% of the game actually has nothing to do with Gremlins. Hopping tomatoes, bats, moving plaforms.. Name it :)
The tomatoes and bats are referenced in the film.... but i'm not sure what part of Clamp Centre has a bottomless pit and spikes on chains swinging round :P
+Enyalios Dune 99%? Some one never got passed level 2! Actually this game is pretty accurate to the movie. Almost every major scene in this movie is referenced throughout the game.
The very first game I got when I was 5. Since english is not my first langage, I tought "password" was for writing my name, and didn't understand why it wouldn't work. It's still one of my favorite NES game, I wish there was more plaformer of this type back in the days.
Man, Sunsoft knew how to make good games with liscence titles back then...; not like what it is today. This game was challenging without the use of passwords.
At the 6:43 part there used to be a mysterious shadow figure at the right side of the screen that run away everytime you got near it. Anybody ever found out what that was? I've never been able to hit it.
When I played this game I was buying balloons like they were going out of style. I like the music that plays for stages 1-1 and 1-2. It could just be me but does the part at the VERY BEGINNING of the level 1 stages almost sound like a weird remix TMNT theme?
@ValisHD It also has the quality of following the movie abit better - the "cut scenes" are nice in this one, but the things you encounter (bats, spikes, spiders - even before the gremlins) + the shop with the (DEAD btw) asian guy wrecks things :).
Yeah in the movie they got the bouncing tomatoes. The twins (the same twins that got murdered in Terminator2 btw) show it to Billy I think. Reason enough for Sunsoft to make an enemy out of it :P
love it - I remember playing this one; never got as far though lol I understand the bats and the rats, sure, and the spiders are pretty neat but what's up with the giant tomatos lol
I've had the music from the first level stuck in my head for 26 years.
Ive had so many NES game music stuck in my head forever! What was it about the music on the NES freaking MAGIC or we were kids & it just stuck?
That one and so many other ones.
Me too!
And me
I've had 21:51 stuck in my head for like 2 days now. Merry Christmas 🌲🎄🎄🌲🌲☃️☃️☃️
Welcome Gizmo, what item would you like?
YES NO
lol
Yes
Lol
What an underrated game. So many memories of this.
I wish I played it back in the day but sadly never even saw it around anywhere.

They were very difficult , now yeaRS LATER i dont know how i did it, because i cant even jump and move properly
I second that, it's another hidden gem in the NES catalog. It gives me a huge nostalgia and fun still to this days.
I finally beat this game, no continues, no cheats, no tool assistance, just one on one , me against my NES!
When I was little, I was in completely in love with this game. It was thus one of very few games I had ever been able to completely finish. This music brings me back big time =D

Definitely an NES hidden gem I was fortunate to have played when it came out .
Thats how it is done.

Only Sunsoft could take a ridiculous movie and make a good game out of it. They're like the anti-LJN.
Allerdyne you mean there’s a movie based game that wasn’t butchered by ljn? There is a god.
In defense of LJN, they did an amazing job with "Maximum Carnage"
Honestly, Gremlins 2 is kind of perfect for this because when you have a ridiculous and over the top movie like that, you can really give a developer license to just do whatever the hell they want, which Sunsoft kind of did here (though actually sticking decently to some of the story beats, and putting excellent effort into cutscenes).

One Doomed Spacemarine True Lies was awsome!
Gizmo sprite looks awesome for a NES game, wish they made a sega version.
when i was a kid. i was actually scared of this game. i guess because of the movie.
The gamę was tough. Camera angle made it confusing.
@@kjh8651
Final boss was scary.
This is hands down one of the best NES games on the system.
Good to see someone acknowledges this. Sunsoft's music is legendary though. Batman Return of the Joker and Journey to Silius, for example.

Damm that animated outro is awesome.
This is the best graphics I seen on the NES!
Sunsoft overall makes the best soundtrack and graphics for a decent game
@@lucariothehero500 yes ! Sunsoft had great games. Batman return of the joker, super spy hunter
The sheer simplicity of this game makes it epic.
I remember this. I played this game very much when i was a child. I love this game too.
Played this game like twice and I still feel that nostalgia
I am amazed at how far I made it when I was little. I didn't think I beat the game, but I remember all of it. When I saw the spider Gremlin version, I instantly was back in my room with my friends watching me play. We played this game, then Mario RPG (getting to the ship riddle which was hard when your 8ish) and then Mario 3 all night until we beat that, too. ah the memories lol
Gremlins with a blend of Blaster Master.
I still have the NES cartridge of this!
I swear 8 bit music was so much better than what we get today. Songs like these and streets of desolation from Batman NES, they’re just unbelievable music pieces
Soundtrack is epic
Resembles "Royal Hunt" at some moments
Bought this one for my game collection many years back, truth be told it is one of the best movie to game translations on the NES. Sunsoft's track record in those days was pretty good till the 16 bit era when they started farming their games out to other developers, or licensing some pretty bad games from other developers for release.
NXD2 is the password for the final stage, I still do remember it
NXRD
Impressive on the final boss, with one heart
This game had a kickin' soundtrack, though.
Agreed million fold. :) I still remember this game when I tried to play it with my friends to the end. Always that time the level 2-2 was awkwardly hard. :3

Soundtrack - epic, listened with pleasure.
miss the 90'
I've beat that game when I was 12 years old boy, used to rent it from the video store. Now I am 40 years old boy, times flies away.
I love this game.
I used to love this game when I was a kid
this game looks really cool
Obrigado! Foi muito bom rever esse jogo. Lembro há 30 anos como se fosse hoje jogando.
One of my favourites as a kid, I never had it but got to borrow it from a friend and did eventually complete it.
90s games have a certain level of charm
This was one of those games people dont really remember, but was actually pretty good. Probably wont see many new games like this one ever again since 2d is extinct now. Also gremlins is kind of a gone fad
I really like the game and the graphics. the company that made the game also made both batman and batman returns on the nes. A true classic. I wish that I was born in the 1900's so that I could experience the game for myself from an amateur perspective.
BATMAN RETURNS was from KONAMI, SUNSOFT did BATMAN and BATMAN: RETURN OF THE JOKER (comic book adaptation)
Return of the joker on nes is way better than the same game on genesis somehow
Wow, the music at the end is awesome!
Way to beat the final boss with half a life bar left! One of my favorite NES games, Gremlins 2!
I loved this game, music is better than I remember
the music is so damn nice
something that you would expect from Sunsoft
Why is there so much lava in an office building?
+benfrombelow Budget cuts.
what do you mean
Because it's "Clamp's" office building. Guests need lava, they simply don't know it yet.
Nice to see Gremlins 2 on NES. I like this version.
I just played it on my Commodore 64 on my UA-cam Channel. Very interesting to see that the versions differ on both systems.
Thanks for your video and stay healthy, Andira
Dang, this is a great game.
exellllllllllllllent souvenir mais cetait pas facile
Love the graphics in this game.

I know that Sunsoft was responsible for this game, and that SNK was responsible for Crystalis, but the jumping sound seems very similar to that of the Rabbit Boots and the Flight spell from Crystalis.
one of the best nes games i ever played
I never even knew this game existed 🎮🎮
One of my all time favorites!

I love this music 🥰
What a blast from the past!! happy days!
this game was epic thanks for the upload

+Enyalios Dune Valis77 the guy who plays this is a convicted child molester.
Sean Beard vas a seguir jodiendo?
the cutscenes looks awesome!
i remember renting this game back then, hated it completely some few levels in.
Funny how they made Daffy being a magician, throwing top hats while spinning. Guess his dentist role didn't suit well for the Enemy Type.
SUNSOFT games have some awesome tunes!
This game and Batman solidify Sunsoft's place as the king of movie-based games.
And let me just say, I love the boss theme in this game!
yea and i like the cut scenes sunsoft did a good job on that gizmo and billy it looks just like em
There are really intense moments there...
Good attempt at a 3D platformer on the NES. VERY good.
The very first game I got when I was 5. Since english is not my first langage, I tought "password" was for writing my name, and didn't understand why it wouldn't work.
It's still one of my favorite NES game, I wish there was more plaformer of this type back in the days.
This was the 1st game I ever completed think I was like 7 or 8
Man, Sunsoft knew how to make good games with liscence titles back then...; not like what it is today. This game was challenging without the use of passwords.
Amazing how this game has the same quality like Zombies ate my Neighbors for SNES
At the 6:43 part there used to be a mysterious shadow figure at the right side of the screen that run away everytime you got near it. Anybody ever found out what that was? I've never been able to hit it.
I always wondered that myself. I wonder if there's a way to reach him with like a Gameshark code or something, wonder if he actually does anything.
They should bring back Sunsoft and make some good video games again like the good old days....
rellik187redrum haha
Never gonna happen!
There is no “they”!
Sunsoft is gone, they’ll never return!
Sunsoft is gone but not forgotten...
I agree with rellik187redrum
I can't believe i wayched this years ago, it's like going back to the past *-*
Why do you keep running back when the stage is cleared?
wow i was have this game in the early 90`s, this bring me sweet memories , thank you very much :)
The first movie WAS EPIC !!!
Unlike alot of people though I REALLY enjoyed this one as well :)
When I played this game I was buying balloons like they were going out of style. I like the music that plays for stages 1-1 and 1-2. It could just be me but does the part at the VERY BEGINNING of the level 1 stages almost sound like a weird remix TMNT theme?
I've never played this game before but saw it in Nintendo Power. It's like a fun version of Fester's Quest (which had gameplay too cheap to be fun).
this was supposed to be a really good nes game, looks like it to me.
I haven't played it since back in the day, but from what I can remember, it was surprisingly decent for a movie-based game.
It's pretty good, but it's also really hard. Typical Sunsoft fare, along with the stellar graphics, sound, and music.
The code for the final stage is NXRD
Why tomatoes?
Counterpoint: Why not tomatoes? :)
Because of the vegetable gremlin, I think... Only reason I can think of :)
Ah, you didn't see the movie.
Thanks for posting this video!!
@ValisHD It also has the quality of following the movie abit better - the "cut scenes" are nice in this one, but the things you encounter (bats, spikes, spiders - even before the gremlins) + the shop with the (DEAD btw) asian guy wrecks things :).
quel souvenir mmm
Yeah in the movie they got the bouncing tomatoes. The twins (the same twins that got murdered in Terminator2 btw) show it to Billy I think. Reason enough for Sunsoft to make an enemy out of it :P
This game uses Blaster Master and Fester's Quest's overhead shooter engines.
This Soundtrack!
love it - I remember playing this one; never got as far though lol
I understand the bats and the rats, sure, and the spiders are pretty neat but what's up with the giant tomatos lol
Ikr
1:39 gizmo got some sick moves
Great video, could not get past the first few minutes before this :o) Love the music to this game :o)
I love how Gizmo can cast a shadow in a big hole XD
It's hard but not impossible. That's what makes this game so good.
12:07 -- Some of the best 8-bit video game music ever made, and that's a FACT.
This is one sadistic game
25:47 Thought the video was going to start telling me about the nazis! :/
Amava esse jogo.
I remember this game being proper solid! Great playthrough tho
Very Good Play 👍👍👍
