lol I used to make that noise where you move your index finger up and down your lips like blu-blu-blu-blu-blu-blu to when you get your final score. My Nintendo won’t even play games anymore, guess I have to buy a new console. Ah, the days when graphics weren’t much, but the fun factor was off the charts.
Didnt have this game, but some of my friends had it and sometime i would borrow this game so that i could play it. I also think that there was a cartoon based on this this game or the other way around. the cartoon aired is South Africa.
If anyone is wondering, this is the same game as Wonder Boy, it was not developed by SEGA but they retained the rights to the name and characters, so the developer changed them when they ported over to the NES (see Wikipedia).
I never cared for this series. I’m not saying that it’s a bad game… far from it. I just don’t care for its style. While it looks better than the original Super Mario Bros., I think that Nintendo used far better level design in their game.
Yes and no. It borrowed heavily from Mario, but it was not really a complete ripoff (a good portion of platform games during that time borrowed from Mario), to me it was closer to the wonder boy games

This game was waaaaay underrated.
I loved this game, i wonder what a nextgen version would look like lol.

The first one sucks, but the sequels (2-4) are great.
Where did you come from i thought you retired lol! Nice to see your still documenting the history Nintendo. Cheers
HEHE Pot Bonus. Still funny.
Very nice it looks simple but fun and the graphics are pretty good too.

I used to play this game at my friend’s house when I was a little boy. We never saw the second level.
