Battletoads (1) (15x16)

: 15, 2011

While relatively unknown amongst Japanese gamers, Battletoads is infamous with the rest of gaming world as being one of the single most challenging, yet rewarding games for the NES. And now the time has finally come for Arino to take it on. Arino will have to slip, slide, crash and bash through 12 stages of unrelenting platforming action if he is to rescue Princess Angelica and save the day! If one infamously difficult game isn't enough then the arcade that Arino visits packs another. As soon as Arino enters Game Fuji he spots Ghosts 'N Goblins and he has to know if his skills still hold up. He then spots different instalments in series he's challenged before, namely Gussun Oyoyo and Go By Train! 2. The first peripheral shown off in this week's Project CX is Hudson's Joy Stick which Arino puts through its paces with a mini challenge in Super Star Force. Next he looks at the Joyball trackball controller from Kirby maker HAL.
