Rare games.... You got em? I want em
Great topic.
My list:
Contra - this game owned my life in the late 80s. The theme music of Stage one and the Base levels are permanently burned in my skull.
Star Parodia - not the hardest game, but I own it using the PC Engine (the ship, not the system)
Gunstar Heroes - brings out my Contra skills
Zelda - havent done it in a while
Punch Out + Super Punch Out - I'm the KO King!
virtually every fighting game
Outrun

The best 2D and 2.5D video games.
Not really sure how many though I know one thing for sure it was a heck of a lot of fighting games that I beat like this more then any other genre.
Lets see
All of the Nes Marios
Battletoads for the Genesis
My goal is to beat Btoads Battlemaniacs for the Snes
Super Smash Bros.
Probably More but I can't think now
My other goal is to finish Zelda 2 with one life and time my self
If they made a movie out of your top five worst sins, what would it be rated?
Check out my list of trades on GameTZ Link
Contra, Gunstar Heroes, Metroid, Gradius 3, and...
CASTLEVANIA!
The last one I'm especially proud of.
That's it! Next stop: The Junkyard. Population: You!

Morgoth Galaxius:
"CV3- 1rst quest, once.
Haunted Castle- US version K 5 times, both Japanese version once. First quests on all of them. Defualt dipswitch settings. Trying for the back-to-back quests one-lifer, can't do it yet.
Vampire Killer- 5 times first quest, and once back-to-back quests.
And horribly, CV1 (US NES version) only once:("
He's working on Vs. CV (arcade version of CV1) which is much more difficult than the normal version.
Prince of Persia: not just without dying, without wasting time. Never stood still for longer than a split second, bypassed most guards without killing them, didn't stray off the main path for a power potion even once, and didn't die. Finished with almost 40 minutes remaining on the clock. Don't think I can repeat that feat without training, though.
I've also finished Golden Axe 1 for the PC without dying one time, but that was on an old XT on which the game ran so slow that it was much, much easier. You'd see every enemy attack coming from miles away; the way the game played it was all about tactics and no reactions.
"Yes, yes...but apart from all that, Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play?"
Contra (3 times through)
Panzer Dragoon 2 and Orta
Zelda 1 and Ocarina of time
Space Channel 5
Gitaroo Man
Punch out and SUPER Punch out
Dragons Lair and Space Ace
Nights into Dreams
Castlevania
a bunch of fighters
I like monkeys...and poop...and monkeys that poop...and play video games
Anyone remember "Street fighter 2010" for the nes? 1 life. Still a good looking game.
Has anyone heard about this guy in Japan that beat "Ikaruga" (gamecube) with only one life??? It's seems impossible in that game. Well apparently someone in Japan is selling a dvd which shows the guy passing the entire game with one ship. I think it's on hard or something. Anyone know were I can see this video?????
"...I felt raised, I felt LIFTED".
I've beat all the nes "regulars" in one life:
-SMB
-SMB 2
-Legend of Zelda
-Contra
-Super C
-Metroid
-jackal
-Ducktales, and I'm sure many many more.
But the 'one-lifer' I can do in my sleep that actually requires a lot of skill is:
-Castlevania 1 for nes.
"And remember ladies: if it ain't tight, it ain't right!"
I beaten in one life:
Super Mario 1-3
Contra
Sonic 1-2
M.C. Kids
That's all that I can remember.
SMB and The Adventures Of Dino Rinki (Pretty Easy though when you just hold down the fire button and have fire as a weapon) Also Alex The kidd In Miracle World.
sadly I have not beaten any games in one life (at least not that I can remember, maybe mega man 2, but I'm not sure), but reading this thread has inspired me to revisit some of my NES games. Anyway, I was wondering if anyone has tapes and or movie files of their one life feats, I collect them and would love to have some of yours. If anyone wants to donate I'll be happy to provide you with the necessary media to make copies and postage for mailing. PM me if you've got anything.
Mike Tyson's Punch-Out
Super Punch Out
Metroid
Super Metroid
Zelda: A Link to the Past
Mortal Kombat 2-4
Street Fighter (a bunch of em')
CastleVania 2-3 & SOTN
Tekken 2, 3 & Tag
Spider Fighter (flipped without losing a life)
Asteroids (flipped without losing a life)
That's some.
Ducktales (nes)- ....In 7 minutes!
Sonic 3
Sonic 3 and Knuckles
Sonic Adventure
Great question! The only ones I have really kept track of are Zelda games (because your death count shows on the file select screen). I've done all of them (minus the first two & the oracles) on one life, because it pains me to be reminded of death.
Actually, I don't think that would be so big of a deal. Perhaps, he beat it on one life without firing once?Originally Posted by FF6
I realy enjoied beat-em ups back in the day.Sooo...
I specialized in beating
Arcade clasicss like
Final Figth
Captain Commando
But most enjoied
Konami's 1989 "Vendetta" cause u get to continue after the end and there were so many different moves and holds and wile the oponet is on the ground and so on - for the time it was innovative.
Lets not forget Double Dragon too.
SMS Power Strike
You pretty much have to beat it with one life.
... for your gaming and iPod service needs http://www.oldschoolgamer.com/ For all your Video Game console and iPod upgrade/repair needs!
When completing a game on one life, I would say it would count if you have an audience watching you do it. Completing a game on one life is an incredible feat in itself. Without an audience, your achievement goes completely unnoticed, no one will talk about it to others, and no one will care.
Here are the games I completed on one life with an audience watching (the ones I can recall):
Pole Position (Arcade)
Konami GT (Arcade)
Contra (Arcade)
UN Squadron (Arcade)
Arkanoid II (Arcade)
Street Fighter II CE (Arcade, using E. Honda)
Mortal Kombat II (Arcade, using Liu Kang)
Blazing Lasers (Turbografx-16, Radio Shack display)
Vs. Super Mario Bros. (Arcade)
The achievements in SF2CE (1993) and MK2 (1994) definitely spread by word of mouth. As a result, I always had someone to play against. I would spend hours standing in front of a machine, with competitors always in fresh supply.
I was also the provincial champion of Super Mario Bros. and everyone knew it.
