I'm in a college astronomy class. The term "paralax" appeared on a test. The professor never defined it and assumed everyone knew what it was. Because of this show I was the only person to get that question right. Thanks Gamesack.
i know Im kinda randomly asking but do anybody know of a good place to stream new movies online?
@@stefanronnie6047yes
Did you get a A in the class?
I don't know if anyone commented on Earthworm Jim 2 or if you have already beat it but the key to besting that file cabinet is to run so the papers can fly in the air and the file cabinet will open the drawer to suck in the paper. That's your chance to jump on it and jump to the platform above. Hope that makes sense.
100% can confirm
Yes - it makes sense, thanks!
I loved earthworm Jim 2. I remember the secret to the flying king level was to leave the balloon behind and go kill all the enemies. Once the enemies are all gone you can go back for the balloon.
For anyone stuck on the cabinets on EWJ2: You need to run next to them to get newspapers to fly at them, that triggers them to open their drawers to "eat" the papers, and that's how you jump on them.
Usually when I go back to play games I thought were tough as a kid, I'm worse at them as an adult.
+Turrican4D Me too
As a kid, I would simply rage. As an adult, I even study the game.
Same
Nothing like going back to a game years later and then ruling it's ass.
Or cheesing it with speedrun strats
Usually when I go back 2 retro games I get wrecked lol
When it comes to retro games, this video could last all day.
“This makes me want to drive to the zoo and kill real monkeys” 😂
I haven’t laughed so hard in a video in a long time. Thank you for that wonderful line!
It's so great that you upload on Sunday mornings Finland time. Your show is the PERFECT hangover-entertainment.
Last night, I drank too much and made the oldest mistake in the book, mixing my alcohols. Classic. I passed out and had a dream where I heard the terrible news that Dave passed away. He died in a convention, where he piled a bunch of car tires next to his car and tried to jump them in an impressive show of athletics and acrobatics. Not sure why or how. But he died. Apparently by having a wall of car tires falling on top of him. It was a terrible dream.
Glad to wake up and realize in hungover stupor that it wasn't real and curling up to enjoy the show once again.
Vkmies This was the perfect story to dab to, right now😂
Da fuq.....
RIP in peace Dave.
Who's Dave and he isn't dead guys lol
@Joshua Paul I know this, I also know Dave White is still perfectly healthy.
I loved how I beat castlevania symphony of the night by fighting Richter without the holy glasses. Then replaying years later only to find out there was so much more like the inverted castle!
Dave looks like he was about to empty his......Game Sack
+AlphaOmegaSin locked and loaded.
+Game Sack Dave I thought you'd go the silly route and slap a steak or some hamburger. o3o
+Shane the Freestyler I was expecting that too. lol
+ssjup81 me three
+Portable Gaming Hub No. He's saying he was about to bust a nut in the post credits scene. I can't believe they actually went there.
when jim whirls up some papers from the ground, the file cabinet will stop to open and take them ;-)
My Sunday's are not complete until the game sack is opened!
the acting from dave in that last skit was impressive. It really looked like he was going to cry!
holy shit that ending skit. best one in a while!

Ninja Gaiden? Jump, press down and slash like crazy. You won't see Ryu's animation but it you will hear the sound of his sword slashing really fast, and the hits count. Really helpful in those areas.
Wall slash & Flying Swallow work well too
Great video as always guys! Most games I cannot beat are on the NES! Where's my Game Genie!?
Great idea for an episode. Gave added incentive to see the episode through aside from just wanting to see more classics. The aspect of "will they conquer these unbeaten titles?" adds a new little layer to the Game Sack formula. Like it.
I remember playing Alex Kidd in Shinobi World as a kid. It did take some time, but I did finish it (thankfully). I originally rented this from our local video store, and loved it so much I saved up and bought my own copy. Shinobi and AKISW where two of my favourite games on my Master System... ahh, so many great memories.
Thank you Game Genie and hex editor, to make my game less a hassle!
Ah, yes. My Sunday morning ritual! Breakfast and the Sack.
I really want to see another one of these videos. keep up the good work guys.
I think this is one we'd definitely like to do again sometime.
+Game Sack I'd love to see another one with some new games and a couple from this episode which you never beat and came back to again.
+Game Sack I'd like more of these too, and maybe one that's quite the opposite: easy games (that are still fun).
@@GameSack You guys do Great work!
All you have to do in that room in NG 5-3 is keep moving. The enemy patterns are deliberately set up to miss you - the respawning guy leaps over you, the eagle flies off the left side of the screen, etc.
the lucky dime caper ( last stage) on the master system... i never beat this game wen was a kid (back in 1990), but now i can ( no cheat, real hardware). keep the good work guys! cheers from brazil
Love you GameSack. I look foward to every video! keep on doing what you guys are doing!
Definitively loved the concept for this one. Great work! I also hope to see more of these.
Started the video and immediately heard the major boss theme from Tokyo Xanadu. I never get tired of you guys repping Falcom.
Glad to see Lord of the Sword get some love. I can't remember how my brother was able to breeze through the game but he's one of the few people I know that has finished it.
Oh and the post episode gag was the best one yet. Masturbation jokes will never not be funny.
Another fun video guys. I love the reference to Lord of the Sword. I remember getting that one for x-mas one year and having to f-ing clue what to do. This was in the pre-gamefaqs days. For a while i thought i had the only copy in existence because nobody ever talks about this one. Leave it to Game Sack and their massive game library to bring it out of obscurity. Can you believe it's actually worth a few bucks now on ebay......Cheers!
I love watching these videos, even though they seem to be uploaded around 12 to 1 am my time which makes me say good-bye to sleep and hello to Game Sack ! Keep up the good work Dave and Joe !
I love these guys!!! They trash talk each other all the time and it cracks me up. Such a great channel.
The filing cabinets will only open when you kick up papers. Just run from side to side until you get the right distance and timing. Not sure if I'm explaining that right. I also used to have problems with that level until I figured it out.
Great as always! i'd like to see a part 2 of this video too
Re: Earthworm Jim 2 - You need to feed paper to the filing cabinets to keep them stunned in place. You do that just by walking around and causing the paper to fly in their direction. That'll effectively lock them for a few seconds so you can jump on them.
Remember everyone: The game is not over, until you make it over!!
To be honest I hardly beat most of my games on any of the systems I've had over the years. Especially on the 8 and 16 bit era consoles. After that games got more story driven and were much easier.
Even I couldn't beat my own game.: (
lol Ninja Gaiden nes or Xbox? lol I aced the Xbox version was in top 10 on Xboxlive.
Do you call your meat "my game"?
@@KingXOreo Okay creep.
@@terreausore2435
Okay weirdo.
What the hell are you doing here?...
You don't belong here...
You don't.. belong.. here
Loser! Jk
I love this show so nostalgic you get that feel good sensation ,I can sit and watch the show with my grandchild no cussing in this show and also these guys don't beg you for money ,thank you game sack for all the good work you guys are the best.
Glad to see Legendary Axe get some love, but surprised you've never beaten it. You almost beat zone 5 which leads into a huge castle with branching paths to some 20 or so rooms. A correct path is needed to reach the level boss, and then on to Jagu the final enormous boss! Don't give up, you have to save Flare!
This was a great episode as all the games mentioned were hard as hell! One game I could never beat was Zelda II for the NES. It would get me so pissed as a kid that I actually got to the point where I would avoidit just so it couldn't put me in a shitty mood. Gladly, I have since beaten it, closing a lifelong chapter of frustration! Thanks for the sweet epislde, it was just oozing with Mega Power!
Beat Ninja Gaiden a few times, I think the difficulty is overstated a bit.
Mainly you need to be willing to sit down for a while and not give up, not get frustrated.. You can always continue - master how to execute the rough spots and progress.
Unlimited continues in games like that is always awesome.
I wouldn't say the difficulty is overstated, I mean I had a very hard time beating it the first time. But anything seems easier once you are good at it.
I'd say the difficulty is understated if anything. It's harder than people even admit it is. the problems is not so much how its designed bit the limitations of the nes. The respawning enemies are due to the lack of memory on the system.
tical2399 Right, the key is to figure out where exactly the respawn points are. That's how I always make it past the knife throwing guy on stage 6-2, I "despawn" him.
When I claim that the game is "not so hard when you get good at it", it is partly because of my own low selfesteem, since I was able to beat the game, I think to myself that maybe it's not because I got good, but because the game was perhaps not as hard as I thought.
there's no save state playing on original nes syatem...don't be cocky
I've been trying to beat Dynamite Headdy forever! That game still wrecks me every time.
@22:28 "What the hell? I guess that doesn't work." Lol. Joe, I get that reference... and I love it. I love it so much.
Great video once again guys. I give it 5 bags of popcorn and I'm throwing in a little plastic Shinobi shuriken for good measure.
I finally beat the original Super Mario Bros at age 18 after having owned it since age 3. I was finally able to beat the original Castlevania at age 23 after having owned it since age 6. And I was able to beat Rings of Power after not playing it for about a decade.
+HaydenX Oops...note "Rings of Power"..."Jewel Master" was the game I beat.
+HaydenX That's it. Never give up.
I beat Castlevania after watchin a vid of someone beating it, I can never take that back... smh
One of your better videos guys. The sack is back!
Lord of the sword, definitely needed the FAQ to clear that one. At some point towards the end, they give you a sword that is actually weaker than the one you are carrying, and there is no way to switch back.
BTW I used to be much better at beating games when 16-bit games were new! Still enjoy games a lot though.
Meat is my favorite game. I'm pretty good at beating it.
+GameBoyLegacy Both spellings are valid （US/UK). Stop being annoying.
US/UK spellings are both acceptable so long as they are not mixed. Neither is wrong for usage online. Besides being a fan of computer games, I'm sure we have seen far worse than a different spelling... All your base are belong to us. Make your time GameBoyLegacy.
***** A word is a word. It was not stolen. It is correct either way, but you get made fun of or corrected for using the U here and made fun of or corrected there if you don't use the U.
+GameBoyLegacy I'm sorry that you have to be so aggressive.
Wow that has nothing to do with gaming fucktard XD!
Great episode. I really like the concept. Looking forward to seeing a sequel in the future.
Great episode, pretty much my favorite channel on youtube, never disappoint!
I love playing hard games and after much hair-pulling I've been able to finish most of the ones I've set my mind on beating.
But even though I've beaten games like the Castlevania and Ninja Gaiden trilogys and even the dreaded Battletoads and Battlemaniacs there is one game I've been trying, and failing, to beat ever since I was a kid and that's The Adventures of Bayou Billy. Even with the extra power-ups earned from the training missions I've never even been able to beat the first boss in that friggin game.
EWJ2 on snes is broken... play it on MegaDrive, PS1 or Saturn... I have all 3 of those versions and that filing cabinet part has never been a problem...
+Adam Michael I have the Saturn and Genesis versions also. I will try them and test the filing cabinets.
+Game Sack Dave Apparently, you need to stun the filing cabinets (with the whip?)
Great show btw. ;)
+Game Sack Dave do more Saturn stuff please I got one in 96 and sold it and I've always regretted it think it's cos 2d games have aged better. Btw I still think putting game music on your iPod is gay lol (u should've seen all the comments I got for that, who knew folk on utube acted like pricks)
+electronash No idea where you got that idea from.
The filing cabinets open up when you run back and forth, creating pages from the ground that the cabinets suck up - you can see it happening in this video.
Run back and forth, stir up a few pages, and the cabinet will sit there calmly as you climb up.
CaptainAustralia5000 earthwormjim.wikia.com/wiki/Filing_Cabinet
Legendary Ax looks like a great game. I loved the small details, like when the monkeys attack you they actually jump on your back and bite you.
Legendary Wings! Oh, that takes me back! I picked that up once, at a yard sale in the early 90s, along with Tiger Heli. Back then it was completely normal to just happen upon games you didn't know existed. Because not everyone had subscriptions to gaming mags, and that was really the only source of gaming knowledge outside of embarrassingly bad commercials disguised as cartoons and game shows. Oh man...I just reminded myself that Johnny Arcade and The Power Team was a thing. Now I need a shower!
Some games are kryptonite to some gamers.. I still can't finish Double Dragon on NES no matter what I do and I can finish the arcade one in a credit no problem.
That's fair. I think the main thing with that game is to be aware that the longer you play it the more tenacious it gets. Like, if you don't die at all up to stage 2 and climb the tunnel section the bladed contraption move super fast and past that the bomb attacks get egregious. Success is a matter of exploiting the game's limitations. Also you can get a permanent Robo-Panther that makes things a lot simpler.
The first section of Mission 4 where the wall pops at you is freaking cheap
display that sack, baby!!
expose them all to the power of the sack!!
Great idea for an episode! Good work guys!
Surprised Dave didn't mention how gorgeous Earthworm Jim 2s graphics are on the SNES. Seriously the amount of frames on that filing cabinet and the shading on all sprites is top notch
Ninja Gaiden. I thought Dave had beat that game. I beat it a few years back along with Mike Tyson's Punchout. I also beat Ghost n Goblins arcade. I got so good at that game that I can beat it without dying. If I have time, I'm going to try Battletoads next. I don't think I really had any issues with beating games except the ones mentioned. Most of them are from the NES though so alot of games on their are pretty tough. But after the next gen consoles came out, I never had too much trouble with games that I've played.
Did you beat Mike Tyson himself?
I wonder how many members we would get if we all started a "We Beat Ninja Gaiden"-club xD
+PikaLink91 7
+Amber Short Never have beaten Ninja Gaiden. :( I aspire to be an epic 8-bit gamer like you Amber. Your eye hand coordination must be god like. :)
Battletoads difficulty is overstated.
For one, the game is much easier on single player, which is what most people don't seem to realize going into it. Co-op is where the bad rep mostly comes from, since you end up beating the crap out of each other by accident.
The hoverbike part is still somewhat hard as rumors state, but not the entire reason for the games infamous difficulty.
Badass episode guys. Have either of you beaten Ghosts N' Goblins or Ghouls N' Ghosts? I wish I could.
+Esoteric Arcade Joe's beaten Ghouls 'n Ghosts many times. I haven't beaten Ghosts 'n Goblins or Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts.
Ah yes, a new Game Sack episode...
at 2:30 in the morning...
Man, I LOVE Earthworm Jim! The SEGA Saturn version of part 2 is just beautiful!
Some day Dave will experience the hell that is Act-VI in Ninja Gaiden..
+NightSprinter I hope I do.
Let me know if you'd like to be told just HOW bad it gets, Dave.
+Game Sack Dave i use to watch my older brother beat Ninja Gaiden 1 and 2 every weekend when i was a kid and still cant figure out how the heck he did it since im better at most games than he is.. i can get to the last boss in 2 but 1..noooo wayyy
Don't mention it. That last stage is total bullshit. Like, it is divided intro three parts (VI-I, VI-II and VI-III), when you die you return to the beginning of the part you're in, but if you lose to any of the three forms of the final you're back to VI-I.
yea, my bro would get so pissed when he had to go back :P
The three I always wanted to beat were NES TMNT, Battletoads, and Ghosts and Goblins
+Steven Sloan Me too! Still haven't beaten any of those.
+Steven Sloan Battletoads is a game I beat ONE TIME as a kid and now whenever I come back to it I can't get very far on the final level (tower). Amazing how even after 15 years I still remember the patterns in the Turbo Tunnel.
+Steven Sloan I actually beat Ghosts and Goblins a couple years ago. I was so jazzed.
Then I went on to Ghouls and Ghosts and that game is just unfair.
+Steven Sloan Now those are tough as nails NES games!!!
+Steven Sloan oh my Got, Battletoads without quicksave/quickload is almost impossible to finish.
Fun episode and good idea, guys! If I had a list of games I've never been able to beat, we'd be here all week.
Joe, I'm really surprised Alex Kidd is giving you trouble. It can easily be beat in about 25 minutes. Find the spot where you can hit Kabuto, where he will bounce off the wall and return to right where he was standing when you hit him. Don't give him a chance to attack. I actually finished a no-hit and all secrets (there aren't many) playthrough some time ago. If you need tips, I would be happy to help.
I know right. That game is really short and I ran through it as a kid. I actually found Miracle World much harder.
Altered Beast for me is the game I just can never beat.
+Kalilu Jawara You must be kidding...That's one of the easiest games there is. It can be beaten in like 20 minutes.
+Kalilu Jawara beaten the Genesis version as a kid and occasionally go back for more.
+The Gaming Paladin To be fair, it's quite tricky if you don't know the trick to continue from the start of the level you Game Over'd on. A + Start I think?
+The Gaming Paladin To be fair, it's quite tricky if you don't know the trick to continue from the start of the level you Game Over'd on. A + Start I think?
James Reid ...yeah, about that... i didnt even know the code... yeah... >.>
as a kid I would get lost and not know where to go in both Metroid Prime games. I did beat them eventually when I got the Prime Trilogy for the Wii.
I love relaxing with my two favorite guys!
That Legendary Axe final level is BRUTAL, nice call there.
Dave: "I've gotta say that beating it was enjoyable. Will I beat it again in the future? Who knows!"
You can beat it as often as you like Dave White 😉
I've never been able to beat the Mega drive version of Golden axe. When I once reached the last stage inside the castle, I fell inside a pit and lost ma last life :(
+CarozQH I know that pit well. I've fallen into it many times. It's a very hard jump to make.
Dave, to get pass through Iso 9000 you need to walk around to make the papers flew up, then the Cabinets will try to get them by opening one of their drawers. Then you can jump on them. It's a bit tricky, but it's the way to continue on =) Just run a lil' bit to make those paper sheets to fly up, so the Cabinets try to get them.
+Nekoiichi That makes perfect sense. Thanks!
I can't finish Mystic quest (Final fantasy adventure in the USA) on the gameboy when I was a child.
I've picked up few years ago, and thanks to the guides on the web, I've finally passed the desert zone and finished it!
Man, I love that action rpg :)
Never beat Mike Tyson in Mike Tyson's Punch Out.
+UberNeuman Me neither. I beat Super Punch Out, even doing the Special Circuit. But Bald Bull always got me in Punch Out.
+UberNeuman I've finally come to accept that it's just never going to happen for me. I've beaten some ridiculously difficult games (such as Ninja Gaiden) but I can count on one hand the number of times I've even seen Round 2 with Iron Mike.
+pigs18 beat him twice when I was 7 and played it for two years. once by my self and no one believed me and another with a friend and still no one believed me. It's hands down the hardest game I ever beat but it took way to much determination to be considered fun now a days.
Heh, I l also loved the Earthworm Jim cartoon. I can beat the first one no problem, but I never beat the second.
Game sack too? Damn man you got good tastes!
+Son of Tiamat (formerly known as tiakpark): Yes, the cartoon was great. However, I think part 1 was really hard, could never beat it. But Earthworm Jim 2 is really, really easy...
Salokin Sekwah Heh, we seem to be subbed to all the same channels.
applemctom You think so? I beat and master 1 with plenty of perseverance, but 2 was all over the place with its level design, and I think that lack of focus just put me off to ever beating it.
I never had a problem beating the second one, hell, I thought it was easier than the first outside of The Flying King.
Hey Joe, I thought I would let know of a secret for Legendary Axe. The game only allows for up to 5 enemies on screen at once. For zone 5, try to get past the enemies and keep walking. If you have to kill one thats OK. Basically with 4 or 5 enemies behind you, you can progress through the first zone with little effort. They will stay at the bottom of the screen and no new enemies will appear on screen. I will try to play the game this weekend and send you a screen shot to show you how it works.
Interesting.
Gotta say, I love how goofy you guys get.
I've got a lot of games I've never been able to beat.
Can you guys please do "Games that are easily beat"
Guys in the Ninja Gaiden game, you don't need to pick up every item. Once you get the spinning sword skill, keep it. It save your life like crazy. Plus, you guys should watch a video where a player literately runs through the game with one life and beats it. He gets hit every once and a while, but you'll see it as though he wanted to get hit... to reach certain platforms to get ahead. And he doesn't hit every enemy that comes at him.
That ending skit was amazing
Great episode as always. I've never even played a lot of these games.
as a kid i wasn't able to beat super mario land 1 on the gbc but recently i did it and it was so satisfying
I will never beat Legacy of the Wizard
nice ep guys!! been following ur vids for months now and am super glad i found you guys!!! i was born in 1982 so u guys have a few years on me, but we all played the same good/crappy games back then :) keep it up!!
Tough episode for you guys, lets tackle games that have consistently kicked our asses for the last 30 years. Respect that
Tried many times but can't beat Streets of Rage 3 on "Normal" (easy doesn't give the full game).
Gray I agree it's God damn impossible Everytime I look at my shelf and see the game it pisses me off
Dave...do you even know how long I've trying to remember the name of Legendary Wings..thank you. Never beat Seventh Saga or Poplous for snes. Poplous because I had no idea wtf to do and still don't. BTW...ever notice how color palettes for eight bit games are the same as wedding color palettes in any wedding magazine ever?? ;-)
Thank you guys again.
lmfao. the way Dave looked when Joe said you can still beat your meat. priceless.
I actually just beat Ninja Gaiden this year. Still not as hard as Battletoads was!!
+mistertitanic Yep, Battletoads is in another league of being so hard!
Battletoads is the hardest game I've ever played.

glad yall picked stage 5 in Legendary Axe to demo the music. One of the best retro game tunes of all time.
Beat Legendary Axe, Wings, Ninja Gaiden. These guys are the BEST on youtube.
who actually dislikes these videos, I mean actually votes dislike.
The Earthworm Jim music at 12:00 sounds exactly like the main theme from the anime 8 Man After.
legendary axe is one of my favorite Turbographix games. I always loved the Turbographix sound and music.
Always love seeing your vids pop up!
"... the Dark Ninja..." - I had to rewind that. I don't know why, but it's awesome.
