Holy kusoge not even micronics was this bad, is this the worst in-house Capcom nes game?
It's odd, but playable. I kind of have a soft spot for it.I can't really call it worse than Mickey Mousecapade or The Little Mermaid.Music is overall pretty memorable.https://youtu.be/7YXo39BaiCo?
It was programmed by the same guy as Commando's NES port. Game design by the Mega Man 3 designer, who was also a lead designer on Mega Man X. What a redemption arc.
>>12785294I think the Mickey game was by Hudson, Little mermaid is simple but nowhere near as jank as nes Strider.At least Capcom redeemed themselves next year with NES Alien Soldier.
>>12786838now thats an ACTUAL gameby contrast, NES strider didnt need to exist
>>12785275I played this one a lot in that gba compilation that had this, Mighty Final Fight, and Bionic Commando. What makes it kusoge? It's more fun to play than the arcade game of the same name, which has cool music and aesthetics but is agonizing to play
>>12786984The platforming, controls and hitboxes are kusoge tier for Capcom standards. Then design-wise it's very lazy, sure you have some cookie-cutter metroid map but enemy, bosses and level design are quite lazy and stiff. >It's more fun to play than the arcade game of the same nameNah, arcade Strider has unique and solid acrobatic platforming that you need to learn from scratch. NES Strider ditches all that while failing to even meet basic platformer standards.
>>12786838You are indeed correct, spf games also had a say thoughbeit
triangle jump sucks
