Ghouls was a pretty impressive arcade game when it came out, and the difficulty wasn't that weird for arcade games at the time. It then came out on the MD pretty early and was an impressive show of what it could do. Super then did the same for the SNES. Both games were superseded pretty quickly by other games on the consoles, but by then already had that classic status.retroking1981 wrote:I thought I was in the minority tbh. I think the whole series is massively overrated, least of all that NES game and the arcade game its based off, its just not that good, especially for Capcoms high standards.

This game shouldn't be popular. It's a bastard of a coin grabbing, cheating fuck. It's glitchy and bug ridden but I love it. It's another game I first saw in the arcade and it was gorgeous looking with great atmospheric sound. I hate to be one to overlook gameplay for look and feel but the design of this game, which includes that little red devil bastard, means it carries off the baggage of its shortcomings. I've played this via many retro compilations and MAME and I'll still pass 30mins or so with it from time to time.
