Topic: Ghosts 'n Goblins versus Ghouls 'n Ghosts - Difficulty and memories

I live in Europe, and turns out you get a discount on Gohsts 'n Goblins when you already own Ghouls 'n Ghosts! I've only tried Ghouls 'n Ghosts on my Gameboy and all it did was frustrate me.. But I'm back to try again! I'm getting them tomorrow and I wondered what you all think about these games how you remember them. An older gamer I met some time ago told me you can't call youself a man untill you've seen the ending, how do you feel? Which one is better and have you beaten them yet?

FYI, Super Ghouls n Gosts on the SNES is the sequel to Ghouls n Ghosts, it's a completely different game.

Ah yes, Ghosts n Goblins... a controller throwing, obscene hand gesture at the TV, classic!

I will most likely pick up Ghosts 'n Goblins and Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts after I find out what the sale is on Thursday.

I love and hate this game, especially fond of the SNES and the MD versions. Great graphics and music. But I could never beat them. Really difficult parts. Lack of checkpoints lead to lots of replaying and/or frustration. Limited lives and continues throw you back to stage 1. Treasure chests sometimes contain traps. Last bosses are all evil. Needs 2 consecutive playthroughs to see the ending!

With Wii U's save I can now enjoy, practice, and cheat my way through it. And finally it's fun!

I knew, thank you. I was just wondering which one people liked. I never played the first one and I wanted to know if it was as enjoyable as the first.

I never beat it either. I almost broke my Micro after finding death for the bajillionth times.. Those save state might be a big help for me!

im glad i finally beat super ghouls n ghosts last year, that game isnt hard for me, its only the last boss the second time around with that stupid power bracelet is what made it hard for me.
ghouls n ghosts and super ghouls n ghosts were not as hard for me as others. i guess ill take that claim and run with it
