This game looks incredible compared to the 1987 version. My best friend has PSP and he didn't tell me about this shit!? I'm not going to his wedding now.
lol - ya @Adam, I’d give him shit about it too! this was one of the 1st NES games I bought after like Excitebike and Kung Fu and put Capcom on the map for me (long live Mega Man II!). Floored just now learning about the PSP version from this history video which is rad! ua-cam.com/video/eSrCj20x-XM/v-deo.html
@@bestofthebeastlikebeast3754 The crossbow is nice, since with green and gold armor, you get homing arrows, but those same homing arrows could get you in trouble if an enemy was closing in, and the arrow that sometimes would stay homing a bit wasn't coming after that approaching enemy. Very tough to use on the ghost ship when ghosts would quickly spawn where you were.
This game still looks way better than the flash style animation in Ghost & Goblins Resurrection. The 3D was hard to get used to back in the day but it definitely grows on you and stands the test of time. The ending is awesome in this game.
Que nostalgia, me acuerdo cuando jugue por primera vez super ghouls 'n ghost cuando tenia 4 o 5 años en la family , era mi juego favorito y no me cansaba de jugarlo de pequeño , me alegra volver a encontrarme con el juego una vez mas
Ultimate was cuts above Resurrection. My biggest problem with it was the length. There should have been one or two more levels. They were banking on the backtracking to extend the length of the game, and it does to some extent and still works, but it could have benefited from more environments. The background details were nice and that second level progression from a high intensity storm to a surreal cave with glowing hair was brilliantly developed. That’s easily the most creative part of the game and it’s obvious they were having fun with it. Resurrection is comparatively flat, both literally and tonally. Pocky and Rocky, now that’s how you reboot…
@@fissilewhistle I don't know why they always strip the games down when they revisit them in this era of gaming. Ultimate Ghouls and Ghosts even made Arthur more fun to control.
You had to read the magazines to know it was coming, thankfully, I read plenty of gaming magazines at the time, plus saw the trailers online for it, and knew it was coming, even preordered it from Gamestop back in the day.
I still remember how satisfying the gameplay was in this game seriously tho they should've released more PSP games on the ps3 would've saved alot of games on the system
PSP games look damn good when rendered at a higher resolution. Damn shame that there is no official/non-emulation way to achieve this. Even PSP TV is scaled up and fugly.
RW:Ghost n Goblins,The Nightmare Before Christmas,and The Legend of Zelda all games were inspired to make the game with a mixture of Tim Burtons style the MediEvil games.😁💀🔪🎃
Other then the mighty Maximo games for the PS2. Ultimate Ghosts and Goblins is the pinnacle of the series. I still have vague memories of renting Ghosts and Goblins for the Nintendo from Video Paradise. That and SNKs Iron Tank were games that stuck with me. Rush n Attack by Konami, Clash at Demonhead, Broderbunds The Guardian Legend, Taitos Legend of Kage. Killer stuff.
What'd they call Ashteroth in the original NES one? The end boss. Wasnt it Lucifer? Or straight up Satan? Cause I remember Red Arimer or Firebrand taking Princess Prin Prin. Anyone?
Actually that would be Compile's Guardian Legend, a game released by Broderbund, and Irem (seriously, this game had 3 total companies behind the game), yet done by Compile staff.
@@Bloodreign1 that's right. Broderbund just published here in USA right? I remember mags at the time talking about how computer processers didn't have the computing power for handling the sprite and scrolling work of the NES with TGL. You know if thats true as well? You seem to know your stuff that's why I ask. Anything Compile was super sick. This, Blazing Lazers, Gun nac...etc
And I remember Broderbund primarily for TGL, Legacy of the Wizard and the Computer Floppys of Carmen Sandiego. Think they eventually went into educational software.
@@azforu29 No idea of PC's from that time as I didn't play around with them much outside of the old Tandy's we worked with in school, with maybe 4 colors onscreen. The NES was powerful for a 1983 console, developers eventually learned tricks to make the console do things it shouldn't be able to. Not sure the role Irem played in this game, I'd need to see the FC versions cart to see if the Irem name appears on it, to see if they were the Japan distributor, or if Compile distributed it themselves.
I’ve never played this one- but it looks beautiful, really impressed they had this for the psp, but I suppose I should know it’s capable of handling it, crisis core looked good and they had grand theft autos as well, but this just has a nice look, I suppose it’s because they put in the work.
I think it could have brogught the franchise back if it wasn’t in such a flop of a system. Considering a ton of old franchise are being successfully revived these days, hopefully Ghouls n’ Ghosts becomes one of them
@@realamericannegro977 Sadly did not sell well, hence why it's second revision on PSP stayed in Japan. I was one who bought this game when it came out, preordered it in fact, had it in my hands on release day, later on a friend got me that second revision.
FYI, there's a remixed, Japan-only update of this game called Goku Makai-Mura Kai, that is more traditional in the game-flow: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultimate_Ghosts_%27n_Goblins Look under "Revised Version" in the link.

Red Devil You Mean Firebrand From Demon's Crest.
RangrisGaming. PS4 need to bring this back...... In a major way
This has aged very well, it still looks and feels fantastic.
This game is Gorgeous! I grew up with Ghost's and Goblins in the 80's.
Damn you go way back!
not my kind of game but yes this was a gorgeous game to look at while a friend was playing

How you guys feelin about Resurrection?
This game looks amazing. The graphics, colors and art style hold up still in 2023.
New Ghosts 'n Goblins, same old rule: GET THE KNIFE!
And Red Arremers are still as annoying as ever.
AVGN rule#1!!

I really hate the new art style, it looks very cheap. I was hoping for some high quality pixel art like terraria or stardew valley or at least this.
@@user-bw2zq2nj7r I totally agree. Looks rushed. a fan made game would’ve been better. Look at Cursed Castilla way, way better.
The,art and the colors looks amazing for a psp game
'for a psp game' can't understand why some people think so low of psp... you are just talking about the best portable console ever made.
@rogerio no, thats ps vita.
psp is legit powerful system tbh
I remembered playing this game a couple of years ago and what a great game for the PSP. Thanks for the nice run my friend!!!!!!
my favorite game when I was 7 years old, I loved monsters when I was little.
And you probably still do but then what gamer doesn't like to have monsters in their games I like some where the monster is the main character.
Que nostalgia, me acuerdo cuando jugue por primera vez super ghouls 'n ghost cuando tenia 4 o 5 años en la family , era mi juego favorito y no me cansaba de jugarlo de pequeño , me alegra volver a encontrarme con el juego una vez mas
Yo.tmb en family me.acuerdo q era re difícil y no sabía q había así.como.en.este.video! Pero.volviendo en family era.muy dificil
This is how you remake a classic and improve on it in every way possible even the death of the bosses
This game has some nice graphics much more improved since the first ghost n goblins.
well to be fair the hardware has improved a little since then…
Really now?
Its nice
But i still prefer the beutifull 16 bits of the snes super ghouls and goblins
philip novus ordo seclorum Me too!
@@philipnovusordoseclorum7227 That game is beautiful and I love the stages in that game.
1. Get the knife
2. Get the knife
3. Get the knife
Always
Avgn fans always know
Get the axe get the axe!! Its incredible and powerful and lock on all enemies XD XD
Those were the days where a videogame would be considered a creep if it didn't have badass bosses. Damn, I miss those days.
G&G Ultimate for Nintendo Switch will be perfect :3
Yeah it would arthur and Mario share the same anniversay
Switch is geting a new ghost N Goblins
Well boy, do I have some news for you... Not Ultimate, but Resurrection! And it's about time they resurrected the franchise.
@@Mike14264 just came out and it looks great
Finally
What I’ve been waiting for my entire life
One thing I really love this game
I never knew this was out. I'd wish they would give great classics a make over....carefully.
I like this graphic style better than G&G Resurrection I wish I could get this on PS4 Network
We need Ghost N Goblins on the Switch !!!!!!
Jose Lopez it is now
@Jose Lopez Name? Couldnt find in store.
I hope super will get in
Knowing Nintendo, it'll only be the nes version.
Super ghouls n ghosts is in

This game looked gorgeous!!!
still does
@@antoniomaldonado2075 Thats what I'm talking about.
I've never seen this Ghost n Goblins before! Looks Badass!
And the award for best walk cycle goes to this game!
This looks better than the Switch version.
Way better
Much better. It makes me wonder if they even tried with Resurrection.
@@fissilewhistle I don't know why they always strip the games down when they revisit them in this era of gaming. Ultimate Ghouls and Ghosts even made Arthur more fun to control.
Up the hand who have more than 35 years old and played Ghost'n Goblins in the 80's ✋
Back even before nes the arcade ghost n goblins.
And dont forget that golden armor of yours while you're at it!
A psp classic, and one of my favorite video games!! Thanks for video, Rangris!
This game looks better than I remember it in such high resolution. They ought to re-release it that way sometime.
Wow makes me want to get a PSP just to play this game!
Don't get fool with this video, he use ppsspp emulator which able to up scale the resolution to 4k. psp graphic not look good as this.
@@townnet Ohh ok good to know thanks.

Time to get hype with Capcom announcing Ghosts 'n Goblins Resurrection on Switch :)
This game looks rad.
Im still stuck on super ghouls n ghosts.
Revelation6_7-8 I feel your pain.
Knife Knife I want the Knife, sleep with Knife under pillow and dream about Knife. Knife is life.
I can't believe this game has not been ported to the new consoles. Damn!!!
We fight the third boss everyday here in the South. He just goes by the name "Pollen"
U mean the 5th boss
God, this game looks so damn good. What the hell have I been missing out on for the PSP?
A lot. PSP was a GREAT system for hidden gems. LOTS of goodies.
hey guys, metal jesus here. i'm back again with an episode on hidden gems on the psp...
The PSP was my childhood.
this game is hard as shit its one of does game that is almost impossible to beat he made it looks ez but this game is hard
You can emulate it on pc using pppsssppp emulator
Great job, this game actually gave me a much harder time than the original arcade, nes and snes games.
Why is this game so badass? Why have I never heard of it?
You probably never had a PSP
Such a good game for the PSP
This game looks amazing for its age
Congraturatios
This story is happy end.
Thank you.

Had alota close calls but in the end gg broski
Ultimate Ghosts n' Goblins did the best it could to revive the franchise.
Sadly...it was all in vain.
Great bosses,though.
I think it could have brogught the franchise back if it wasn’t in such a flop of a system. Considering a ton of old franchise are being successfully revived these days, hopefully Ghouls n’ Ghosts becomes one of them
I mean, if Bubsy can return...
PSP was a fine system, had good games, and did well for a while. It wasn't until the PSP Go and beyond that destroyed the system.
cyberfreak4984 yeah but for the old school video game enthusiast to see a classic made this sharp and clean is pretty exciting
What is wrong with this???
I aaaam the GREAAT MIGHTYY... GOO-SLUG ... I am gonna throw some sludge !!!
I still have this game n psp a classic game.
I got 2 tell it !! ... WHAT A BEAUTIFUL GAME ‼️😱🎮✨👻👹🤺
Capcom games on the PSP are the best
we need a reboot of this series
Este es el reboot
The reboot name should be called GhoulsNGremlins
It doesn't have the staying power of Konami's _Castlevania_ sadly.
Now let's see if they can do a Demon's Crest Remake!
Or a sequel but we can only hope and wait
Hardcore! Браво!
13:13 was an all or nothing moment...
Nice art style on this game, perfect for limited polygons, reminds me of Viewtiful Joe
What a gorgeous game and a beautiful ending 🥰🥰🥰
I never knew this game existed. The originals were the bane of my childhood. But, I'd like to try this one.
Nr. 1 - Get the knife
Nr. 2 - Get the knife

Stunning game, looks incredible in 2022. Timeless, ageless quality. Needs to come to nintendo switch.

This game Killed the switch version. Is look waayy Better
That giant bug monster at 6:50 looks like one of those evolved Metroids you hunt down in Metroid 2, or I guess more specifically the 3DS remake
QUE BUENOS GRAFICOS Y EL FINAL ESTA MORTAL!!
This game has more sneak attack ambushes than anything 👏🏽🤺 good job bro
And now a new ghosts and goblins is on the switch. You gonna do this kinda thing again?
I never knew this game existed. It looks badass though.
Love the graphics!
12:20 13:26 I never even knew Arthur has got the power to teleport
This looks like a walk in the park compared to the original 80s version.
I wish this game was released for the Wii or some other console so that it could be played on the big screen.
Zakk Fu you can play it on a jailbroken PS3 or get the hdmi adapter that goes from psp to tv 'real cheap'.
acr500rider or just hack the PS TV and put Adrenaline and PKGj on it and you'll be fine
the psp can be played on a regular tv with an adaptor sold directly by sony
I know this is gonna sound mean, and I'm sorry if I sound like a jerk, but have you been living under a rock, all yoy need is an adapter.
Emulate it
Why is so great that satan has to steal this princess for like 8 different games lol

Good skill, but you missed Spiral Mantruda (the fiery hands with eyes at the end of the volcano stage).
I was thinking the same thing about Spiral Mantruda. He sure did missed that one. I knew one of the mini boss was missing in this video.

We want this game for ps4
You know the drill guys... get the damn knife!
What a God
Sorry.no god.He skipped 4th boss Spiral Mantruder which means he didn't include that on video XD
The ending is so pieceful and good what a good ending it made me cry its so beautiful and they fell in love THE END what a good ending doe
yuck.
I'm glad Earth-Chan is safe.
Shouldn't you be playing _Crime Fighters?_ 😀
What a amazing game.
