It's close enough that it could still take second. Only two votes for it to tie second.

I won't be participating in any retroactive's until late May, but even still PEOPLE YOU'RE VOTING THE WRONG ONE!

Done!

This vote is going to the last second !!

Don't torture RFN staff with Super Ghouls and Ghosts. Thats just cruel and unusual punishment.

No, Cho Aniki is back in second. Come on and vote for it people. It's a good shooter, and I am sure a lot of people don't want to play a game that is difficult for no reason other than to be difficult (no offense to the game, I don't want to pay for a game that will just frustrate me more than entertain me).

Cho Aniki is a mediocre shooter that is notable for no reason other than its homo-erotic overtones.

Kind of like how Super GNG is a mediocre action game that is notable for no reason other then it is hard.

I'd rather Cho Aniki win instead of SGnG

Well this is an interesting turn of events.

How much does Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts cost? Sometimes I need a good cry.

It's a SNES game, 800 points. Cho Aniki is 900 points (it's a import title, although why it's an extra 300 points instead of 100 or 200 is odd).

Damn, SNES game

I meant the price for the original Super NES cartridge.

The US equivalent of 800 points.

Unless you want a brand new copy, in which case be prepared to cough up $100+.

Because Cho Aniki is a TG-CD game. The TG-CD games are always 800 points while the regular TG-16 games are 600.

Looks like Super Ghouls is going to win. Just how hard is it? I remember renting it in 5th grade and liking it, but its been a long time. I haven't actually played any of the games in prep for the show, and I may play this one if it wins. Has anyone beat it recently?

I never played it back in the day and played and beat it for the first time on the VC. It's not THAT hard, it has a very addictive style I think. I'm not quite sure what to compare it with difficulty wise, but for me it's comparable to R-Type 3 in the way your goal is simply to get to the next checkpoint and it is essentially never conceivable of getting through multiple levels on your first go. Ever. Tougher than Megaman I and II if that helps. The spacing between checkpoints are just right so that they're practically all a big challenge but not too repetitive or slow moving (this is something Cho Aniki is guilty of). Every minute of this game is packed with enemies and events that necessitate a lot of skill to overcome. There are practically unlimited continues which is handy, and the game is fun enough that repeating it the second time round doing a more difficult version is still entertaining. The biggest problem for me was the last but one boss, I don't know why I had so much trouble with it but regardless I don't ever remember feeling that the game's difficulty was cheap. It's doable.

Seriously though, playing through this in just 1 week? It must've taken me about 2 months to fully complete (to be fair most of it was that bloody boss - the final boss was peanuts compared to him) and I was on the lowest difficulty!

Great game. Still think Cho Aniki should be given a chance, it is definitely not a mediocre shooter as someone else called it.

I love replaying levels all over again in one of the lamest game extending gimmicks ever.

I was really pissed about that. i worked to get to that point. Hours and hours and so much stress and I need a key. KEY WHAT KEY !!!!!!! Back to level 1. I wasn't to upset at first because I had gold armor but I got to level 2 and said the hell with the game and traded it into gamestop.

biggest waste of time ever.

TJ Spyke · « **Reply #71 on:** April 16, 2009, 02:43:06 PM »

Less than 2 hours to go and it's a tie between Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts and Cho Aniki. I would like both to eventually be talked about, but I am supporting Cho Aniki in this one and urge anybody who hasn't voted yet to vote for it and give the game a chance.

NWR_Neal · « **Reply #72 on:** April 16, 2009, 03:47:23 PM »

CHO ANIKI!

I might sit out of another round if Ghouls 'n Ghosts wins. I wasn't coaxed back to Secret of Mana last time, and I don't know if one of cruelest games ever is something I want to play.

I might buy Cho Aniki regardless of the outcome at this point. I almost bought it the other night...

Cho Aniki has already been discussed to death. A vote for Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts is a vote for progress.
