1. Yes, Christian! Your tears are my nourishment, without them I wouldn't be able to stay on this plane and laze around. It's only thanks to the sodium they produce if I can keep this form! And watch YT videos! Bwahahah Bwahahah Bwah ahah ahah!!!

2. Please do a run of Marble Madness. This game can be finished in mere minutes. The only criteria ask: no save states and no practising before recording.

3. 1:23:09 Demonic noise

4. Oh boy, I can't wait for Castlevania 2(fps)

5. Warning: the last 30 minutes of this video is him trying to kill the insane final boss. Be prepared for lots of repetition…

6. "Why do you do this to me, Mr. Bat?"
   Surely not because you forcefully entered his home with malicious intent?

7. You prompted me to find the speedrun of this game. xD

   Just under 20 minutes. I like the segment names the guy uses.

   Stage 1
   Stage 2
   Stage Nope
   Dracula

8. >The people that love to watch me die
   >u know who u are
   >with ur anime waifu profile pictures
   Wow u hit the nail on the head, there! Ye i think it's hilarious, but i do like u a lot. I've watched most of ur playthroughs cause i love ur personality. Even the old ancient vintage videos. Keep it up.

9. 1:35:36 Pikasprey's Game Boy ran out of batteries, that's what happened.

10. 1:12:00 What's better is that when the Konami Code began to get famous, Konami started trolling players with it.
    Kid Dracula the Famicom version just softlocks on a screen that says something like "Too bad, nothing happened." Gradius III on the SNES makes it a self-destruct code (but gives you power-ups if you swap Left and Right for L and R)
    Other companies began referencing it in their games. My favorites are Cosmic Epsilon which just says "I AM NOT KONANI" (probably intentionally misspelled to avoid being sued for trademark usage) and Tales of Phantasia which uses it as a switch puzzle solution.

11. People say the second game was the best of the GB trilogy. I don't know if there was stuff wrong with the third game or if it was just because it was a late (for monochrome) release that few people bought so the price skyrocketed.
    The Konami GB games I had as a kid were Tiny Toon Adventures: Babs' Big Break and actually the rare Kid Dracula. Those were a couple years later when Konami had surely gotten much better with the hardware. (TTA wasn't that unreasonably hard of a game but I was shocked to find out as an adult the Japanese version had a password feature cut from the English version. Kid me would've loved that. English had limited continues on top of it.)
    I've heard TTA2 was one of Konami's better GB platformers, but kid me chose Addams Family: Pugsley's Scavenger Hunt. I liked the SNES Addams Family, so why not get the excessively butchered GB port (a cut down port of the already cut-down NES port). Not one of the better decisions I made. 😛

12. I do remember buying this game on 3DS VC, and needing to use the "Add remaining funds" option on the eShop. And that is when I think, isn't it, due to how credit cards work (fees), probably would be more beneficial to Nintendo to, on cheap enough games, if the eShop balance is not high enough, take the remaining balance and call it done. But I'm sure they don't want to do it for people to game that system. (they probably made a net negative profit on my purchase 😀 ).

13. At the moment, I think you can download on the Wii Shop but you can't add credit to your account. So you either need to have remaining credit in your account or have already bought the game (which I think is the reason they still left it up). Beyond the point the turn the servers off, you're going to need SD cards and possibly something to store local copies of your downloaded games if you want to keep playing them (on the exact same console because of DRM).

14. The sequel is easier, and has a password system, iirc.

15. Meh, i dont know the Konami code either

16. seeing you suffer fills me with life and joy.

17. I'm now going to refer to all arbitrary video game time units as "schmeconds." Thanks Asprey for another meme I'll probably never stop using.

18. you need a IQ of 130+ to beat this game without savestates… just kidding but back in the 90s Players had much more dedication and focus than it is today. Games were used to be difficult to beat. If this hard castlevania game is the only game the child has as Internet did not exist back then, he will play this game over and over again. With every playthrough you would get further as your skill increase until you beat it.

19. Play adventures of Batman and Robin on game boy as well. It gets pretty stressful.

20. I remember playing this… not my favorite Castlevania by far. I far preferred say, Symphony of the Night. You could say all the normies prefer that game but to be honest, I just really liked it. When you got all set up with a new computer I would love to see a Symphony of the Night playthrough if you wanted to. Loved your other Castlevania runs as well. I'd just personally love to see some good ol Alucard action sometime. I commend your patience with this game though.

21. "My real and official Game Boy just went full screen."
    Surely, you mean the Super Game Boy or the Game Boy Player.

22. I have beaten this without save-states actually. It didn't take me an hour. How long, then? OVER FIVE. And yeah, the "hard mode" is just enemies dealing more and more damage on each repeat playthrough until they one-shot you. No thanks.

    Play Belmont's Revenge. It's a lot faster, brings back subweapons and feels like what it should've been. I don't think it's a great Castlevania and I haven't played it in forever, but I remember it being better by a mile. Or better yet, Legends.

23. If my parents ever gave me this as a game boy cartridge I probably would have thrown my game boy against the wall. Thankfully they got me Pokemon Blue <3

24. now that you have practised a bit, i want that you play tom & jerry for gameboy. 😀 i only beat it once as a child and never played it again. god, i hated it so much for it's difficulty and jump scares when tom came out of furniture. 😀

25. This is even better than the Pokémon salt!

26. Found out recently that Pikasprey is Canadian, that explains a lot.

27. I believe Juste is pronounced Yoost
