Kid Icarus (NES) - Complete Walkthrough - Best Ending

One of my favorite games from my childhood. I play through the whole game and get the best ending. 0:00 - Intro & Stage 1-1 4:22 - Stage 1-2 10:42 - Stage 1-3 16:54 - Stage 1-4 20:31 - Twinbellows (boss) 21:08 - Stage 2-1 28:21 - Stage 2-2 35:20 - Stage 2-3 42:07 - Stage 2-4 46:31 - Hewdraw (boss) 48:33 - Stage 3-1 51:09 - Stage 3-2 56:14 - Stage 3-3 1:01:22 - Stage 3-4 1:05:32 - Pandora (boss) 1:07:27 - Stage 4 1:12:44 - Medusa (final boss) To get the best ending, you must do the following things: Have all four strength upgrades Have all four health upgrades Have all three special weapons Have 999 hearts when you defeat the final boss This really isn't hard to do. The only thing that can be tricky is getting the strength upgrade on stage 2-2 because you need to get a certain number of points and there's a limited number of enemies to kill.

However, the difficulty curve isn't very good. Most people will find the first three levels to be the hardest because of your limited number of health, weapons and items. The castles can also be a pain in the ass if you don't know where to go and especially with those eggplant wizards walking around. As for my playing, it was far from perfect, but that's how it is. Since you restart the level every time you die, you don't get to see all my deaths, but I didn't die too many times. When you restart a level, you always get two bars of health, so you can tell if I didn't die on a level if I have more or less when I start it. Also, I never got the credit card when I played this as a kid, and I didn't even know it existed until recently. I restarted 2-2 until I got it.
