@@edgy943 What was interesting is that it was fun to play, but at the same time it's hard to pinpoint what made it fun. I mean it dose not look that good, is pretty predictable etc. But somehow it's fun!
I remember going home from school, and then starting up my sega machine (forgot which one) and the theme played. I loved this game so much. And I still do.
Who actually had the cart of this back in the day??? I remember my friends calling it "Dead or Alive" because of the WANTED poster on the cover. Damn I would give so much to relive my 90s days.
7:34 and 10:16 with moments like this, are what had me enjoying this game so much, especially how this game gives you many ways for you to trick the guards. It's honestly so funny how easy it is to find several ways to deceive the guards in every level of the game, especially once you get the gist of how the environment in every building is full of guards and policemen that are treated as short-sighted chumps you can pull ruses on any day, and my favorite being 6:05 since you just lure a guard into them running to their own trap they made (for some reason!), like a forging press device to crush and flatten a guard like in a Looney Tunes/Tom & Jerry cartoon! I love how several moments throughout the game like 3:37, 4:48, 4:59, 7:36, 8:45 and especially 9:36, also teaches you how to be stealthy, think on your feet in a limited span of time, remain quick on your feet when something attacks you, remain resilient and decisive within any circumstance you got yourself into, and how to have fun with your cleverness and sneakiness by repeatedly tricking the guards into making a fool of themselves to progress in places where most of your enemies (if not all) are treated as bumbling and inept compared to you, the player, using your brain to outsmart them and sneak past them during a heist (while still able to partake into some fun shenanigans during the infiltrating), that is a very entertaining factor I really love about this game's shtick and gimmick as a "professional thief", as well as the charm and the humor it brings as well. In an odd sort of way with looking into this side of the game's choices of stealth you're allowed to do, those moments I mentioned above and noticed throughout the game, kind of remind me of the message with how Bugs Bunny's use of trickery can shows us the audience on how being "cool, calm and collected" allows you to create plenty of strategic advantages to mess with the irrationality, shortcomings and vulnerability of your enemies, and turn the tables around to your own benefit while having full control over any situation, this is why I love the ways this game shows you how it is indeed very possible to deceive and manipulate the enemies in the game with multiple ways once applying some quick thinking, problem solving, strategy and critical thinking skills with a small dose of mischief that adds the fun factor in outsmarting your enemies in the game.
I heard a lot about this game because of its reputation in Arcade, which never came to my city, and I bought it for me Megadrive in its time; the truth will be me but I did something disappointing that I only had 10 Levels ... 10 Levels? ... From what I understood it was announced as a 4 megabit cartridge (No megabytes) in videogame magazines, and one I expected more Levels for the simple ones of its Gameplay and graphics ... in a 4 mg cartridge, the reality is that it was only 1.55 megabits (194 kilobytes); but still there are longer games in master system and Nes with that memory .... maybe it's my fault for trusting comments and not knowing the arcade well.
Im Mediamarkt gibt es eine quasi Neuauflage der Sega, mit allen alten Spielen aus den 90igern. Da ist auch Bonanza Bros dabei. Da habe ich nicht lange überlegt und sie gekauft, jetzt Zockt meine Frau ständig :-)
I just recently buy this game. Original with manual and box. For $2.50 dlls. Is a good price? I think is more expensive. Need to search in the internet
@@Apanblod I know, it was difficult seeing my friends playing Sonic and this was all I can afford at the time... Its ok, Im in my 40's and my house looks like a Best Buy now lol... I came back with a vengeance!!
@@pabsgabs We all have our fair share of experiences when it comes to bad games we played way too much in our childhood. Mine were probably Bubsy II and Ballz 3D 😅 Good to hear! Hopefully you have bought yourself a couple of good games by now!
