NES Ninja Gaiden - I can finally get to level 6-2 consistently, now if I can just keep the spinning blade jump thing until the final boss, welp, maybe 2016 then

What games do you guys plan on finishing this year?

None. I will buy 30 games, play each for an hour, then go back to playing some multiplayer game.

Dishonored.

Finished Zeno Clash 2. Short game. All the golems died and Ghat's dad is the old guy hanging down at the beach village. This was all seen from a mile away.

I wanna get my Super Time Force Ultra average run under 35 minutes in the next couple weeks so I can submit it to summer games done quick with some confidence and also get the cheevo for beating Gravity Ghost in under 50 minutes.

then I can focus my efforts on becoming a Puyo Puyo master

This year I'll feel sorta good if I end up beating Etrian Odyssey IV, I made a ton of progress mapping the whole Echoing Library and then I got to the boss and I've stalled out, I just need to pay more attention to the boss' pattern (Arm Thrust every third turn, element change ever fourth) or something like that. I'm just doing some side quests for easy levels, I can do it if I just put the time in. The Investigational Support side quest is a loving pain.

Edit: Lmao everyone posted a title from their childhood they haven't beat. I'll chalk up Ultraman: Towards The Future, I know it's rear end but I had it as a kid and never beat Gudis the first boss.

only things i remember:
-it is some kind of 2d platformer/action game, i think you use a sword or melee weapon
-the first boss/miniboss is this robot thing in the middle of a room, it drops bombs to the left or right which then make pillars of fire/something raise all along that side and you have to get to the other side to dodge it
-there is a level later on that is a series of dark corridors and there's drops of water that hurt you, falling into water kills you i think
-the boss of that level was a t-rex or some big ridiculous monster

i know its not a whole lot to go on but cmon theres only like 700 genesis games

also any of those memories could be flat out wrong

The first two in the list remind me of either Rocket Knight or Sparkster but no idea about the rest.

Also, I'm going to try to play some Suikoden games this year and maybe finish some instead of getting about 60-70% and forgetting about it like every other JRPG I play.

Year off to a good start, about two weeks ago I finally took down Batman on the NES!

Last year I knocked off Double Dragon III and Battle of Olympus, both of which I'd been battering myself against intermittently for 20+ years. Felt amazing

Girlfriend got me New Zealand Story for my birthday last month, so I'll probably beat that next. Shouldn't be anywhere near as hard as those other ones..
