#GhoulsNGhosts 

If I ever own only one arcade cabinet in my life, I want this to be the one. This game has an enormous part of my childhood. I would rent the Genesis version multiple times from Blockbuster.

Loved this game. One time me and a friend played it for 3 hours, passing the controller back and forth whenever we died. Then we left the Genesis on overnight because we didn't want to have to start over after we had gotten so deep into the game.

The most underrated channel on RU-vid. I don't care what genre you pick, when it was released, or what console it was on. If it's UCBVG I'm going to watch the entire thing. The disciplined timing of weekly uploads, with some of the highest quality content, is a workload most people just arnt capable of. Not to mention two of the most adorable helper pups on RU-vid. For all the hard work you put into our entertainment, thank you sir. Please remember to take time for yourself whenever needed. Comments are usually family friendly here, so I won't say what I think about anyone who would disagree with that. edit: 100K is coming up! Hopefully people are getting the word out to support this awesome channel!

I ordered the this game from the Sears catalog in early summer in 1989. They gave it to me early. The called and said it was in. It was mid August. I was blown away by this game. I do think the Super Nintendo game is the best in the series, but this is an all-time great.

This one of my favorite Genesis games. It’s the only Ghosts n Goblins franchise game I’ve ever finished but I’ve finished it dozens of times. When Genesis first came out, it had the pack in game Altered Beast. Not too long after to promote console sales, they started packing in a coupon for a free game among select titles. I started saving when the Genesis was released and my best friend got one, and by the time I had enough money they were running this promotion. By this time, my friend had nearly half of the games offered so I grabbed the one of the two he didn’t own that wasn’t a sports game… and that game was Ghouls n Ghosts. I was so blown away by the graphics and creepy music… being a long time of Castlevania, it was right up my alley. It was a long time before I completed this game… I remember finishing the first loop and not completing the second because I could never hang onto the required weapon and hitting a point where you couldn’t (or at least I couldn’t figure out) how to proceed without starting a 3rd loop. By this time, I got distracted by other games… your Sword of Vermillion, Phantasy Star and countless clearings of Streets of Rage. Right around the time the Sega Saturn was taking a market share turn for the worse… Sega seemed desperate to push units. Toy stores and department stores were discounting Sega Game Gear, Sega Nomad and the Genesis 3 consoles for only $50!! I bought the Nomad and started playing my old Genesis games before bed, or mornings I didn’t want to get out of bed. This is when I really out the time and effort into mastering Ghouls n Ghosts. Once I finished it for the first time… I started beating it like once a week to remember all the patterns. I would beat it for friends so they could watch and they were always really impressed because they had all quit thinking the game was impossible. It was probably the first game people considered “really hard” that I could beat that my friends couldn’t… which only endeared the game to me more.

The original arcade version of this game weighed over 5 megabytes. Yuji Naka was able to pare the entire thing down to 5 megabits (640k) for the Mega Drive home release which is really something.

I never got into these games, but I loved the spin-off, Gargoyles Quest 1&2 and Demon's Crest for the SNES.

One of my favorite games. Beat this several times. If I’m having a bad day I love playing through this to cheer me up

Man, your puppy is growing up fast

I just started playing this game last week. With your play through the timing couldn't have been better. I'm close to beating round 1 but I'm glad to have your help for round two. Thanks UCBVG.

Have played them all except the newest one. And of those Super Ghouls and Ghost just felt the most incredible. The double jump combined with extra armor and gorgeous graphics just took my breath away and i didn't even mind the series difficulty. I still go back to it even these days.

Lol, I imagine you exhaust yourself yelling & cussing while getting gameplay footage because your always calm & chill while explaining the games! Love your strategy guides, keep up the awesome work!

This game is a great testament to the genesis’ capabilities: great graphic, color, sound, and control.

Welcome Back! Thank you for creating this channel. I look forward to your videos every week. All are well done and I love your commentary.

The discus looks like Arthur is chucking turtles at his enemies.

Played and beat this many times when I was a kid, great game, great music, back then I didn't think it was too hard but I'd probably suck at it now!

Great guide as always! Didn't get a change to scroll through all of the comments to see if this was already said, but five things: 1. When jumping, firing down makes things a lot easier. 2. When fighting Cerebus (Infernomo), the mini-fireballs that fall down can be easily cancelled by firing your weapon up. (Knife magic makes this fight very quick and easy.) 3. Knife magic (a.k.a. doppelganger) will take out most bosses MUCH faster than Napalm magic. 4. Arthur travels faster horizontally by jumping instead of running. Useful when you're about to get crushed in Stage 3. 5. When Arthur is wearing Magic Armor, the Psycho Blaster erases all single projectiles. Especially useful against Beelzebub.

The "goodess of battle" gives you her "magic box." Lovely.

OH MY GOD I BEAT IT!! I followed the guide and beat this damn game! Almost broke my handheld couple times but I damn did it! (cough) I used some save states but I'm counting it. This was a big deal for me.

Great video, but you missed two secrets: 1. In level two you can shoot the spinning fire windmill, and sparks will fly off. 2. When getting the key at the end of the levels, if you jump towards the key, press up and shoot up as you're getting the key it will say nice catch! Also, I think you are misunderstanding the ending text, it is in past tense , before the game.

I’d also point point out that this game found its way to the capcom collection on ps2 and you can also select your choice of weapons with the debug cheat I learned that by googling cheats for the game. And was likewise impressed with the game graphics quality.

I use to pass this game with ease when I was in fifth grade back when it was released. Have not tried for 30 years.

This is my all time favorite old school game, I had no idea there were so many games following the original. I'm trying to play them all if possible... The reason I bought one of those HDMI game sticks is so I can play as many as I can get my grubby hands on

Was literally listening to this games soundtrack when I was cooking sauce today prior to knowing you released this video, thanks for making this Sunday even better

Ultimate Ghosts 'N Goblins was fantastic! That and Super Ghouls 'N Ghosts were my favorites

I was always a nintendo kid growing up, so it's nice to see what the other side was all about on occasion.

Before I start this video, I just need you to know that it's really nice to hear your voice again. I've been stressed for two weeks now! =)

I've beaten this game a few times, but will never beat ghosts and goblins or the snes version. Love this game. One of the first killer apps for the Genesis.

"And now for something a little bit different." Love it man! Hope you can do 8 Eyes at some point. Thanks for the excellent videos

"Or if you're just sick of this game..." lolz Definitely enjoy your entries, UCBVG. Haven't watched all of them(tbh, some games you play I just don't gaf about), but when you hit on one of my faves, it's always interesting to see what you can teach me(and you have just about every time). Game on, friend!

Never was a fan of the GnG series of games but that doesnt mean i wont upvote your hard work man.

Oh boy, I really love the Ghouls n Ghosts series of games. Really cool and challenging, but man, whenever I see them I can only remember that death jingle. Thankfully the games have infinite lives (as far as I know) Keep being amazing as always, my friend!

Mance is getting big!!! Lol You finally got him in the ending!!!!! So cute!!!!

You are a true tough guy. I am always looking forward to seeing you pick up a Cartridge & Put it in like a champ.

Was getting worried about you after not seeing a post for a while, glad to see ya back!

Welcome back!!!

I was a Nintendo loyalist back then, so never seen this game deconstructed. Thanks for the high quality entertainment, as always!

This is the only iteration of this game that I've ever played. I'm so excited to watch this video! 💯

Dude, another awesome video! Thanks for all the hard work you do to bring us new content so often! I don't know how you do it. That pup must be magic! Love it!

Love this channel, always look forward to your videos!

Loved this one! Thank you for another great episode. Still holding out hope for a Halloween SotN episode.

Worth the wait! Can’t wait to see what you’ve got prepared for Halloween!

CLASSIC game, looking forward to watching it :)

Welcome back! I waiting for your video like child for xmas XD

Another awesome video! I have actually never quite beaten this one, but maybe it's about time I finally do it. Cheers and rock on!

Glad to have you back. :) Excited to see the Halloween lineup!

Thanks for what you do. I appreciate weekly vids a lot. The quality shows you care. I do too 😊

Very excited for this one!

Great video, thanks for the excellent breakdown :)

Thank you again for a great video!!!

Welcome back! Eager for your 100th!

Hell yes , Ghouls ‘N Ghosts you never cease to amaze me You Can Beat Videogames. One of the hardest, but classic games on the NES and SNES

That's my favorite Ghouls 'N Ghosts too. Bring me a lot good memories from the 80's.

Now this brings me back. Ghouls 'N Ghosts was the first Genesis game I bought after buying the console itself a week prior. Back then, you didn't have to buy a game right away because consoles already came with one (Altered Beast in this case).

Sweet puppy. Welcome back!

Great video!

Another great video!

Still a fan of this game after so many years. Challenging and fun.

I've been waiting on this one for a while

Nice review

36:52 "You need to, like, die or something." -Kylo GamerDoggo, 2022.

I just started working on beating this game for October so its amazing this video dropped

Glad your back

Love your channel, I’ve been watching since Zelda II! Do you post sources for your introduction anywhere? Your intro’s are great and sometimes I want to know a little more. It’s great to watch your subscribers count steadily grow each week, keep it up!

I didn’t have a sega genesis as a kid so these videos are extra cool to me as I get to experience these titles for the first time.

Wow mate amazing channel, new sub here for the great content. Finally gonna beat some old games thanks to your help. This GhoulsN Ghosts games are very cool, tried hundreds of times to beat it as a kid, tried a few times a while ago but last level is very hard xD Thanks a lot mate, keep up the great work, cheers o////

This is what i needed today...some enjoyable viewing....

Welcome back, and I hope you had a great week off. Really excited to see this episode, I've never beaten this game but I always enjoyed playing it, even with those dastardly Red Devils 😵 also Super Metroid is technically a horror game 😏

I just watched a few let's plays on this game and here you dropping goods ☺️

Resurrection is actually my favorite in the series now. Controls and plays a lot like the Genesis version but with expanded magic, levels, and difficulty options. Legendary difficulty makes the previous games seem easy.

Welcome back U Can.

Great vids, dude.

my 10 year old son gets AMAZED when I describe how hard the games were back then and how we couldn't just RU-vid a walktrough only to pass a part we were stuck.

Great stuff as always. I hope you get to teach us how to play Alien Soldier someday, never managed to go far in that one.

Damn that puppy is getting big....

I remember beating that game with a friend, we would take turns playing a level or a life, that was before the cheat codes. Truly one of the best games on the genesis! ✌🏼😎👍🏼

Aw-right! Let’s go!!

Awesome video.

Love your walkthrough, my good man. Thanks for your generous gift of gameplay and the fun of let’s play voice over, as well as the history lesson of the game’s production and secrets to make retro gaming easier for us retro gaming vets and new comers alike. Hope you get the opportunity to walkthrough The World Famous “Super Ghouls N Ghosts” for the Super NES. Till then, I shall enjoy your walkthrough of this and Ghost N Goblins.

19:46 that was a close call!

Yeah! I love this game. I try to play through it every October. It’s a classic and very fun. None of the slow down of the SNES version, only tight and fast action.

Best channel of its nature

Its reminds me arxade Black Tiger. Excellent game. Really hard to beat but here it is now. Thanks

This was a game that I kind of enjoyed in the arcades BUT once I got to the moving tongue statues Argh! I was getting swallowed everytime I jumped. You Can Beat Videogames (and his dogs) help me to ease those Vietnam arcade memories and the post traumatic stress.

None of my freunds that had a Genisis as a kid had this. Didn't play it until years later when I bought a Genisis used. Biggest fanof thev SNES games as that was the one we had when I was a kid and one of the ones my brother and sisters also enjoyed.

At 36:05, Nice Catch!

Thank you!

Actually, the statue of terror true name is Shielder. The cloud one is Gassuto. The big worm is Ohme. Loki true name is Lucifer and you know why it is censored during that time. I'm glad to see your walktrought about that one.

There is also Ultimate Ghost on Goblins on Psp. I like the Super one myself and this as the best two.

I was looking for the vid when I woke up with ridiculous insomnia, but this timing is 2nd best.

JUST BEAT THIS LAST NIGHT ON PRACTICE MODE THEN ON PROFESSIONAL MODE BACK TO BACK!!! I did that instead of playing the new Destiny 2 expansion. Wow the nostalgia hit me. This game looks amazing on SEGA!

I rented this a few times and was just as frustrated as the other GnG games lol. But it was still fun.

I remember playing this on the commodore 64. It is one of the greats.

Dont forget the wonderswan version means GnG on the go! Always great to see nintendo developers (like capcom, konami, & namco) on sega, considering the exclusivity clause nintendo demanded.

Welcome back! How are the doggos?

I think the text about Loki restoring the Ghouls n Ghosts world might be a reference to the Ghoul Realm and the events of Gargoyle's Quest 1 & 2, and Demon's Crest.

Loving the Genesis episodes! I can't wait for Chiki Chiki Boys!

Your the best man 👍

I love your videos

I can hardly wait for the time when you decide to make a video on Demon's Crest. I already watch your videos from start to finish, but Demon's Crest is my favorite game in the Ghosts 'n Goblins series.
