Game: Astyanax
Run by: Roth
Length: 27:59
Notes: "The game itself isn't too hard, but a no death is kind of hard to pull off. The level called Marshy is the biggest pain, because it's so easy to get knocked into a pit if you don't move forward with ease. Sometimes magic can be magical!"

Game: Bad Dudes
Run by: Syxx
Length: 22:35
Notes: "Are you a bad enough dude to rescue the president... ...in one life?" Make good use of the nunchucks and hitting the bosses when they are trying to jump up onto a platform is key.

Game: Castlevania
Run by: Nico8912
Length: 19:59
Notes: "This game takes some practice and quite a bit of skill to beat without dying. It's very helpful if you hang onto the holy water until after you beat death. It's widely known as a very difficult game..."

Game: Castlevania [No-Hit Run with Tips]
Run by: Syxx
Length: 18:08
Notes: "Pretty much I play through the game and implement tactics that I learned from watching the playthenes.com tips video as well as a few things that I know about the game myself. I also added annotations as to why I am doing what I do during the playthrough so people aren't just watching me kick the crap out of the game, but that they can go out and do it themselves."

Game: Contra
Run by: Roth
Length: 18:08
Notes: "I've never tried to do a no death run of Contra, but I thought I'd be able to do it. I tried for a week but kept making dumb mistakes. One morning I finally pulled it off. I tried around 20 different times throughout that week to do it."

Game: Double Dragon
Run by: Roth
Length: 21:11
Notes: "Most of the game is fairly easy to go through, but Machine Gun Willie was not one of those parts! I eventually found the method I used on him with the elbow at the side of the screen. This gave me enough energy to fight the shadow."

|
Game: DuckTales
Run by: Roth
Length: 17:43
Notes: "This game can be completed easily as a no death run. Honestly, it shouldn't take too long if you decide to attempt it. The biggest thing MIGHT be getting used to the cane physics, but besides that, just knowing what's going to happen next."

Game: Jaws
Run by: Nico8912
Length: 7:53
Notes: "There's a trick to killing Jaws by staying just a few pixels below the surface so that you can hit him without him hitting you, although I didn't use it here."

Game: Kabuki Quantum Fighter
Run by: Roth
Length: 31:47
Notes: "Not hard at all. I used to beat this one alot without dying, and it only took me four or five attempts to do it again. I believe the third level was the tough one. Getting some of those jumps down without hitting your head... ugh"

Game: Karnov [LIVE]
Run by: Roth
Length: 24:40
Notes: "Played this on New Year's Day with my son and I. Having a shield at some of the bosses certainly helps on this game! Using the wings when prompted can help you out too, like when you first encounter the snake lady boss on level four."

Game: Kung Fu
Run by: Nico8912
Length: 5:32
Notes: "Fun NES game, but very short. Only 5 levels. The bosses aren't too hard, but they may take a few tries to beat if you don't know their attacks and weaknesses. Also, your kick and leg sweep attacks are your best attacks since your punch has a shorter range."
|
|
Game: Legendary Wings
Run by: Nico8912
Length: 37:18
Notes: "I know where the lucky stages are. I skipped most of them just because I didn't care about score on this run. Keeping the firebird state is very helpful for killing the bosses quickly without taking too many hits. The more hits you take, the less powerful you get, the harder it gets!"

|
Game: Mega Man 2
Run by: Nico8912
Length: 46:22
Notes: "I don't ever go in a set order through the bosses. So this way isn't the best but I like to mix it up for variety :) Enjoy!"

Game: Ninja Gaiden
Run by: Roth
Length: 21:44
Notes: "I think we all know the problem areas in this game (the cliff, the first hall, Jaquio). Learning to fight Jaquio with the sword is a must if you want to one life this game. Those fireballs get crazy if you get out of sync!"
|
|
Game: Ninja Gaiden III: The Ancient Ship of Doom [LIVE]
Run by: Roth
Length: 20:54
Notes: "I think this run is special compared to other runs on the web, as I don't use the firewheel on the last level like I've seen people do in the past. It came down to 7 seconds left on the timer when I beat the last boss!"
|
|
Game: Power Blade
Run by: Roth
Length: 35:52
Notes: "Once you get powered up, you shouldn't have too much trouble. The bosses take a bit of learning, but in the end they turn out to be not so difficult. Getting the power blade suit during the levels really helps to keep some energy too."
|
|
Game: Power Blade 2
Run by: Roth
Length: 43:08
Notes: "I'd say the best way to get through this game in one life is to make wise use of your suits. Don't waste the energy it takes to use them very often, and collect as many refills for them as you can. Other than that, repetition."

Game: Silver Surfer
Run by: WizWar100
Length: 34:37
Notes: "The game was beaten a long time ago, with me memorizing the hard parts that come and the rest were just simple reflexes. It's not hard, but it is challenging."
