Have You Beat These?

[mariocaseman]

I'm struggling with a few games I love, but after years of trying I cannot come close to beating.  Has anyone ever beaten any the following games?  If so any advice?  Cheat codes are not an option, I want to beat them on my own.

Little Nemo The Dream Master - NES
Friday The 13th - NES
Bubsy - Super NES / Genesis
Bug! - Sega Saturn
Rayman - Sega Saturn / Playstation
Lethal Weapon - NES / Super NES

I recently beat Little Nemo. What part are you having trouble with, mariocaseman?

[Arseen]

Out of those I've beaten Little Nemo.

Well almost.

I've never beaten the water world.
I always missed one key, so I used the level skip code.
Other worlds I've beaten fair and square.

I beat Friday the 13th

I cannot get past the 2nd world.  I'm guessing the game doesn't get any easier.  You beat it without cheat codes?

Friday the 13th is fairly easy, actually.  Just take one of the counselors (either Mark or Crissy since they can both run fast and jump high), and load them up with Torches/Pitchforks and medicine.  Day 1 Jason should be easy, day 2 Jason is only tricky when he goes into turbo mode.  Day 3 Jason is always in turbo mode but once you have the timing down you can usually scare him out of a house without taking any damage.  Once he leaves the cabin you're in, immediately go outside and pursue him (again, with whomever has the Pitchfork or Torch).  You can really lay some smack down on him in the sidescrolling sections and if you have a few medicines you'll be able to just attrition-kill him.

Of those games you mention, that's the only one I actually own.

Nope, no cheat codes. My Wii's disc drive stopped working around Christmas, so during the downtime I hooked up my NES and played Journey to Silius and Little Nemo: The Dream Master -- two games that I hadn't beaten before. Both games required multiple attempts before I succeeded. Once you play through the levels two or three times and remember the locations of keys and enemies, you can breeze through them pretty quickly.

One of the great things about Little Nemo is that there is no time limit, so you are free to explore at your own pace. Does stage two have the trees? If so, climb up them to find keys. Be mindful of the little seeds that float down and attack you (they are easily the most annoying enemies in the game). If I recall, there may be a pit in one of the earlier stages that actually leads to a key if you jump down it. Be warned though, I'm not entirely sure. The game does get more challenging as you progress. The train level, and the final level will require multiple attempts before you figure out the tricks that make them passable. Luckily for me, I was quite enamoured with so much about the game that I wanted to keep playing it, even after I'd seen a Game Over screen or two.

the torch with a turbo controller makes quick work of him since the torch acts like the Holy Water on Castlevania.

Yes for the first (a long time ago), no for the rest; in fact, I don't think I ever played any of the others.

I've completed all but Friday the 13th and Lethal Weapon.

I don't know exactly how much help I can be with some of them, considering the last time I played Bug! Was more than 15 years ago and I've gotta imagine It's been 22-23 years since I last played Little Nemo.
