Rambo - NES - Angry Video Game Nerd (AVGN)

- Опубліковано 6 сер 2009
- The Nerd finds himself in action hell, as he looks at three bad games for the NES and SMS, based on the Rambo film series. This is Angry Video Game Nerd Episode 41.
The Rambo films were some of the most popular action movies of the 80's. The character John Rambo was first introduced in David Morell's novel "First Blood" and made more famous by the movie adaptation of the same name starring Sylvester Stallone. It went on to produce three sequels, an animated series, comic books and of course video games. The first Rambo game was released in 1988 on the NES. Simply titled "Rambo," it was based on the events in Rambo: First Blood Part ll, but instead of being the fun shoot 'em up action game it could have been, it was nothing but a confusing Zelda ll rip-off. With stiff controls, a lengthy password system, and a tough to navigate map, the game was a complete disaster.
The Nerd not only sits down to review this game, but also Rambo: First Blood Part 2 and Rambo 3 on the Sega Master System. He also addresses the inconsistencies of the films titles once and for all.

12 Years late but: As someone that's designed old games, I can tell you the long password systems like that are "necessary" because not only does the password bring you to the level you left off at, it should give you all the weapons you had, and for really precise passwords (loooong) you should have the correct ammo amount, health amount, etc. that you left off at. And actually knowing what position and part of the code is what you can actually make it so you have more guns, ammo, health etc than you left off with.
Thank you for sharing this!!
👍💚 awesome fun fact!
TL;DR: A necessary evil.
Ever play river city ransom? Now that was a man's password lol
Hope Nerd wouldn’t see this or he s gonna be Angry with you !
I like to think that Stallone kept saying "I feel better in prison" while filming the actual movie.
"That will be all" and movie ends.
@@RetroArchiwizacja ⁸ the
lol
Watching old AVGN is like snuggling up in a warm blanket. Never thought a guy yelling and swearing at video games would be one of the best things for me to fall asleep to, but here we are. Nostalgia is a powerful thing
Me tooooo 🤣🤣🤣
Id smoke and eat lots of ice cream and binge AVGN
And - awesome
....until you run across an episode with Mike Matei acting like a spazz who just did 12 rails and thinking he's funny...
@@RantingRamsay Mike was easily the worst part of every AVGN episode he ever appeared in, true.
Rambo fighting against a giant spider and throwing chinesse letters that turn people into frogs? of course I remember those parts! Definitely the best of the movie.
So basically, if you wanna play Rambo on the NES, play Contra.
Ah, Contra the only one that got it right...
Rambo V: Contra NES
It works too if you wanna play alien...the alien wars is a classic
Yep, and if you wanna play an Indiana Jones game on any console play the Uncharted games, lol!
when i was a kid i thought the 2 characters in Contra were Arnold and Stallone.
Then call the fourth one James lol
AVGN: The Movie
James: AVGN 2

Fifth one is gonna be doug:nostalgia critic:avgn spinoff the movie

The rant about the password seemed pretty genuine.
Until you play Golden Sun and Golden Sun the Lost Age
Capital letters AND lowercase letters in a password? Preposterous!
@@zyzzy-ko4ww its so not needed lol like they think youre gonna guess the password if the dont have both.
@@josephwalker1853 it's not for security, it's because the password is almost like a save file. Every digit is a specific stat or something, that's how it's able to save your exact stats.
@MeowCat280 that makes sense their are so many different weapons i guess the would need all the variables
"who throws a grenade at a tiger" well Monty Python throws grenades at rabbits.
lol
didn't a few people threw grenades at a tiger in far cry 3 and 4
Holy hand grenade of antioch
It was the only option he was to OP
GET THE HOLY HANDGRANADE!!!
The way James says "assholes" at 7:19 always kills me XD
“John, the movie cant continue until you say yes.”
😂 I would love if that’s how the scene resolved.
You can do it for tons of movies;
“I can’t go to Alderaan, I’ve got work to do!”
“Luke, the saga can’t continue until you say yes.”
“Oh, okay.”
the original version shown on GameTrailers actually had him talking over footage of Rambo 2. It was cut like Rambo was saying no to the mission. It was great. I think that cut is so much funnier than just a close up of Trautman in the video game.
Obi Wan waves hand: "you WILL go to Alderaan"
"Yer a wizerd, Harry."
"No I'm not, you big brute!"
"Blimey, Harry - the book can't go on till ya say "I'm a what?"!"
"But I was going into Tosche Station to pick up some power converters!"
@@morbidchidI REMEMBER THAT LOL
Murdoch the Frog Vs. Darth Scorpion. Now that's something that needs made, lol.
Well the Chinese letter sure describes well how the nerd is feeling, (怒: rage/anger)
So you're saying he's some kinda ikari warrior
Looks like Akuma's kanji tbh
@KevinTTVV think theres a year of the frog in the Chinese astrology. Beats me why the guy turned into one tho
You know is a much more rage episode when its a heavy metal intro
@KevinTTVV I think they like making people just turn into random things kinda like Vader turning into a scorpion in the star wars game. Makes no sense but awesome surprise to make ya laugh.
Remember folks, AVGN is older than youtube
Yep. UA-cam's 20th anniversary is not until February 2025. The AVGN's 20th anniversary is this May! 🤓
"Who throws a grenade on a tiger?" A few people in far cry 3.
R4MBO should have been the title
Or RAMBLOW.
Gi Nattak Or....
Ramgo F yourself.
Rfourmbo
Just No
@@Ratciclefan :
How about Ragu IV
*My favorite part in the entire Rambo saga was when Rambo turned Murdoch into a frog and Murdoch reveals to him that he's a wizard.*
"Yer a wizard Rambo!"
Murdoch becomes merlock 🧙♂️
that frog and darth vader turned into scorpion
7:06 - For some reason, “that’s something I have no tolerance for” always makes me laugh.
Bad Editing and I’ve never noticed it
5:02 "Maybe you say it's nitpicking, but I say it's shitpicking." LOL
7:49 There's so much action even the extraction chopper explodes when it lands safely.
I remember there being scenes from the movies in this episode. The part with "John, the movie can't continue until you say yes" had a clip.
And the light gun portion intercut with Rambo firing machine guns.
And a lot of Rambo shooting scenes right before the throwing grenades at the spider bit. Thought that was the funniest part, but unfortunately that version got replaced with this edited version, presumably initially because of the DVD release not allowing the use of movie shots, and then later UA-cam not allowing film scenes in videos. At least you can still find the original edit online if you look hard enough.
Man that metal version of the theme song is so good!
Yep, best intro song in the series.
I know right 😄
Nien
Fuck it. Intros like this long are a waste of time in such videos
thehitchslap it's all subjective really.
The password has to encode your inventory, what you've done, your stats and whatever else. The password for zelda, if it had one, would probably be over 100 characters.
I just suggest for anyone who thinks the rambo passwords are long to go look ag the Golden Sun passwords.
@@erikasakura7721 River City Ransom..... not that you need it there really, but that one takes the cake. I think it's the longest password I've ever seen in any game ever.
7:30
"There's not way to dodge this shit"
proceeds to immediately dodge that shit.
3:44 I can't. What the hell were they thinking with this frame of animation? Stallone should have this image engraved on his headstone when he dies.
I think James should take a look at the new Rambo game that came out last year.
Mr Madness The Nerd suffers enough, he doesn't need it to go so far!
Mr Madness Angry Joe already took care of that so the nerd doesn't have to at least
here4good Angry Joe sucks.
seidl01 agreed
seidl01 whats wrong with angry joe...?
My experience with this game consisted of a sitcom-like inability to talk to the right people at the right time on base, getting lost in the jungle for about an hour, learning to kill varmints and dodge swamp bubbles like a pro, and then getting jump-kicked to death by the first Communist I encountered. What a mysterious jogo.
1:13 " I guess making a game where you go around killing cops... probably wasn't in their best interest".
Well nerd, wait a few years for GTA for that.
Rambo looks like Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat.
Exactly!
NAILED IT!
lol
"You look like a hairless gorilla and when your mouth is open you really freak me out" 😂😂😂
The kanji 怒 at 8:03 means "angry" just like in the japanase word 怒り (okori) anger; rage.
I actually enjoyed Rambo on the NES. It was one of my favorite games
Same
Nice
The music ruled!
The music is fantastic and the game itself is at least interesting. Where it falters or fails it does so because of developer inexperience rather than apathy.
“A shirtless guy wearing red spandex.”
James why are you always putting me down.
AVGN: The Movie
Sh***y Games: AVGN 2
Sh***y Games 3: Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde
Lol
DarthRushy Don't forget the fourth one called AVGN.
Vicente Garcia You crazy? The fourth one's called James Rolfe.
Part five- James D. Rolfe: AVGN 5
John Burns AVGN 6: Desert Bus
This metal intro is the best imo! :D
NEEEAAAAAAAARRRDDDD!!!!
+John Burns MADDDDDD
I was gonna say that
+TheFbiFilesRepeat I'm pretty sure that's AVGN playing the drums.
I want a full length remix
11:25 is about how I react to internet arguments
I love it when games start with a "BUT THOU MUST!" question.
Rambo in Mk11 anyone?😂😂
Same reason I'm here
Definitely
@@santiagopachonlozano5886 sapeeeee
Always love the older episodes with the different things. Makes it feel fresh.
Hits different
"Who does Rambo think he is? Jesus Christ?"
Pure gold.
"who does Rambo think he is Jesus Christ?" 🤣🤣
Rambo is actually shooting a Japanese kanji character (怒, "Ikari"), thus turning Murdock into a frog.
Ikari Warriors?
it still doesn't make sence
+Aaron Velez Ikari...like "Ikari Warriors", a.k.a. "Rambo Commando"?!
LOL The 8Bit music at 08:20 where James destroys the cartridge, fits perfectly XD
I had a ridiculous love for this game when I was a kid!
Nice reference to Rambo III, but slightly off. It's
"Who do you think this... Rambo is?" "God or something?"
"No"
"God would have mercy"
12:43 NERD.exe has stopped working.
JAMES!! I've watched your videos since your first bunch before UA-cam! It's amazing how far you've come along and how famous you are on here now. Keep it up!
Rambo Commando Rambo Commando Rambo Commando
John Rambo and John Matrix finally working together at last
where did hair GO!!!??!!
Rambo Commando, where are you when I need you? LOL.
1:55 Rambo looks more like Liu Kang.
Rambo looks like Liu Kang
Haruka Takahashi Liu rambo
John Liu Kamgo
I thought he looks like the character from Contra?
The Colonel looks like Colonel Campbell from MGS.
@@Christian-dq6ko Snake, you've created a time paradox!
Just looked up the kanji that appears when you shoot Murdock and it's "anger"..
I look forward to the sequel: Rambo (2/3/4/5/6/whatever): The Revenge of Murdock the Frog.
Oh man, that frog is gonna kick ass!
Ya that one looked good
MurdockThe Frog's 🐸 Revenge
6:12 The Joker glitched him through the levels!
"John, the movie can't continue until you say yes." xD
"Who the hell throws grenades at a tiger"" XD
Tei Citan What bothers me more, is who the hell trows a grenade at a helicopter??!?! O.o
If it makes you feel better it is said when Brock lesnar goes hunting he F5s deer, moose, and even bears then he goes down to the marina and piledrivers bullsharks
Tei Citan Anyone who's ever been attacked by a tiger regrets not having a handy M79 GL with them, trust me!
Tei Citan uhhh when i read your comment it said what u wrote right away ._.
Tei Citan If a tiger was rushing me and I had a grenade...I'd throw it at the motherfucker.
1:30 You know what's funny? Super Paper Mario has an option exactly like that at the beginning of the game when you're asked to save all existence from being swallowed by The Void by using the Plot Macguffin of the Day: the Pure Hearts. You can literally get a Game Over at the very beginning of the game, right before actual gameplay starts, just by saying "Fuck the world! Let it die! I'm sick of being the Yes-man!" If y'all watch Chuggaconroy, you KNOW what I mean... Aaaand just for good measure, "BOWSER'S ARMS!!" XD
Update 2019 Rambo Last Blood has been announced. 🤣🤣🤣
no more rambo then~
6:54 “Although I’ve never seen him write anything down.” 🤔
That ending never gets old
In this game, Rambo looks like Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat 😆
Rambo balboa
Rocky Rambola.
John Balboa
Rocky Rambo

The rant about the password system in this video was just freakin' awesome!
The quality of AVGN videos is unlike anything else on UA-cam. They are so high in production, that they deserve to be on TV! G4 would be the perfect channel.
If Rambo walks past Co and doesn't talk to her, she is not killed. She then comes back with Rambo and says she loves him. Not only an alternate ending, but a different movie outcome.
wish that happened in the film.
Rambo III for Sega Genesis was a pretty good game.
played it for hours
this vid brings back memories, so many good times with avgn videos
congrats youtube! AVGN intro song got the Spanish subtitles correct but incorrect for the English.. Perfect! LOL
I got Hungarian.
Cause Spanish Subtitles are made by Juanako and that guys is a fucking legend
JumpingBalrog Yes. Auto CC.
Rambo 1 = Zelda 2
Rambo 2 = Akari Warriors
Rambo 3 = Operation Wolf
My favorite part of 2020 so far is that I am reminded that I didn't hit the Like button on some of the old AVGN videos, so now I go back, watch them all, and finally click Like.
Love your videos I am hooked!
lmfao when he says "aaaand he turns into a frog…." hahaha god i do remember this game was EXTREMELY HARD!!!
Thumbs up if you are still enjoying this 12+ years after release!
You know i am
Darling, you better believe it
8:20 was an epic moment in AVGN history .. Love it ..
What if when the movie comes out there's a book written off of it and then there's a game made of the book. It would be AVGN: The Webshow: The Movie: The Book: The Game
nerd
Rambo looks like Liu Kang from Mortal Kombat, just saying.
mk on nes
He is in mortal kombat 11 see go look at it
Longest pasword I remember is from "Swords and serpents" You had to enter the game code, how far you've progressed
Then Enter 4x another pass, for each char . So thats 5 in total.
The longest one I ever encountered was in Hydlide. It was just so tedious and time-consuming.
There was a Scooby-Doo game on Genesis with a 50 digit password.
+Mr Zilla Hi
I remeber putting with sword and serpents the pas,
And I though as a kid. What If I typed 4 x the same char pass? Yep it worked. Now I had 4 x a mage with the same items..
Oh.. good old days it was back then. Multiple items and cheat w/o a code. Just try it on your own:P
Ofcourse I didnt. As a kid I had respect to finish the game the normal way.
But sure had this "heaven" feel when I found that out.
I just had too. Because my writting failed on some codes ( was unreadable). So, back then I did a double code and it worked. Later I did it 4 x to test it.. and i was like OMG>> I RULE haha.
Good times and a good feeling.
When I saw his mouth open I died! 😂🤣
Still looks better then the 2014 Rambo Game.
Drokash far cry 3 was a more faithful rambo game
That NES Rambo did have some pretty good tunes, tho.
Technically, the immediate title of the *GAMES BASED ON* the 2nd movie is: ”Rambo”. The title of the games bears no relevance on the title of the movie, because they weren’t made by the same people, and the people, who made the games, as far as I’m aware, have no authority to create canon regarding the movies. It’s like if I made a game called: ”Super Mario: Bros.” (downgrading the ”Bros.” into a subtitle, as indicated by the colon), does that mean that the immediate title of the original ”Super Mario Bros.” is: ”Super Mario”? *NO!* 🤯
"You get out your machine gun, you shoot him and he turns into a frog."
+brolylss01 Why is there a Frankenstein doll in the nerd's pelch???
+Eddie I didn't notice that
I recall playing this when I was ten or eleven years old. I never could figure out how to leave the opening stage.
怒 is mean angry
bad grammer
Know as gret gramer
But, why a frog?
As a wise Jamaican beurocrat once said "this just raises further questions!"
Now I'm wondering if that part in the game is an Ikari Warriors reference.
print("***** RAMBO for the NES *****")
while True:
print("A) I'm not afraid of death")
print("B) I feel better in prison")
q1 = input("Would you like to begin the game?: ")
if q1 == "A".lower():
print("Correct choice. Game Start: RAMBO")
break
elif q1 == "B".lower():
print("But it's up to you. The game doesn't start until you say YES.")
+Samuel Anwar Jajaja the same that i think XD
+Samuel Anwar Yusss python
Dude shut up
+Justin Savino Salty much
Yvette Austin i need creative comments for me to be happy sorry
"Another thing that blazes my balls" Totally going to use this now.
I remember buying this game. Was so mad at myself. I think I ended up throwing it away.
"Its like they focus too much on the story rather than the gameplay"

Other way round tbh
@@GW_01 fortnite has no story lol
@@derkommissar4986 Save the world is literally the campaign my guy
On Super Paper Mario, you have the option to say "no" at the beginning as well, and if you say "no" you get Game Over. :P
5:27 listen without looking
🤭🤨
Hilarious that the end boss starts blinking red right when he says something about it not blinking 🤣
On the Sega version, the second player plays as Frank Stallone.
Tony Williams But he should be singing by a flaming 55 gallon drum while drinking wine
I'm really happy with the enthusiasm you put into your dive. Sneaker squeak and everything.
12:44 when I’m in school and I answer a math problem wrong but another student says the same thing and gets it right
Ya know what, 11:20 reminds me of IHE accidentally making a new meme by just making a sarcastic point.
What always got me about this game was I did as instructed, took pictures and went back to base. Then the guy asks me if I've seen the movie.
I still have never seen Rambo 2. I guess I was supposed to rescue the guy or something.
I had not only forgotten about the Nerd covering multiple Rambo games but also the weird frog part. That caught me off guard again! 😂
3:38 😂😂😂
So it starts the same as The Matrix: Path of Neo....Although if you pick the blue pill you simply wake up and it's over...
Dion van Oene Except that the rest of the Matrix : Parh Of Noe was pretty darn fun. It had some really good fighting moves and really bad graphics, just how I like my beat em ups.
0:43 always make me laugh
It's excellent that, as of Thursday, May 4th, 2023, ~6:15 P.M., another Rambo film has come out after the Rambo film that inspired this video about the Rambo video games based on the previous Rambo films.
My dad loved the Rambo III on the Master System, it was one of the few games he finished. Playing with the light gun was so damn fun! I personaly liked a lot to play the "Wanted" game.
