Thanks for watching…
So how did you first hear of Power Blade? And is it as good as I think it is? Would you change anything about it?
Nice choice in games to review! Even though I never owned this game, I did rent it from the video store a couple of times when I was a kid. I was never able to beat it, but I always remembered it as being pretty good.
I loved your script, edits and especially the impression (pretty good).
I emptied my clip of 9mm bullets onto the subscribe button. I'll be back.
I agree. Power Blade is a cool classic. I love that you actually can beat it in one sitting. The music is superb if you ask me, but I get what you say about it not feeling tied enough to the vibe of the stages. Kudos for making this video ?

I never played it until a few years ago after getting hundreds of nes games via emulation and I love it. Part 2 is cool too but not as cool as the first one.
Probably the last great NES games of it's twilight era (although some will debate that Power Blade 2 might be better, it is via rarity stakes!). It's the game that stole every element on why the NES was such a beloved console before it's passing with the emergence of the 16 bit systems..Ironically it's original Japanese version original was not so great, so a rare Western improvement as well. There's a Unity remake of the game but sadly it was never released and was canned. I'd love to see a remake of this gem!
This game was pretty cool. To think they substantially improved it from its Japanese counterpart.
Great review to a great game…never like all the music and thought it was the one thing that was blahhh. I just used to turn it off and listen to the radio.
Currently watching the video so if it was said, apologies, but if you enjoy the mega man series you will Probably enjoy power blade
Your music is too fast, try it on russian Dendy (you can play it on FCEUX 2.2.3 and set region to Dendy). That music is fantastic ! Also try Power Blazer…
The MJ sounds when he walks killed me. Ha ha.
Nes complex good to see you again, the Superbad id killed me!
Ironic that the music has a Mega Man quality in one level, it's composer is Kinuyo Yamashita who worked on Castlevania.
This was the Frist game I finish in my nes
Great game indeed and the US got the better version as well. The one thing that makes it a bit "too easy" is the boss glitch where most bosses can be destroyed by a single grenade as you enter the boss room. Overall though I like it even more than Power Blade 2.
Enjoyed that Chris, great vid as per mate!
I'm still waiting for "Power Blade" starring Arnold Schwarzenegger to come out on DVD…
Is it fun…SHHHYEAH, im commenting this before i even watch the video bc its freaking good! But ill still watch…
Yessss!! Finally a new video. Love your videos man.
Awesome review man!?
Great video, thank you! 🙂
Hell yes bro , glad to see another one of your vids , as always . I could use these every week . Always greatful for your passion, knowledge & humor . Are you on other social media’s ?
a true hidden gem
nice review. i've been considering getting this game for a while. i will most definitely get it now.
Well you have outdone yourself here. I mean your videos have always been good but my god was this great. I first heard of Power Blade from Nintendo Power so this really hits home. Funny enough i have never beat it so that has to change. So glad i saw this pop up on my feed an d it may be my new favorite video by you.
The Arnold is not in the box BUT in the "press start screen"
I love quality content uploaded on saturday morning!
Such a great game, I'm glad I got my copy years ago. So good.
Also love that shot of the game in your sunglasses. I would totally do that ha
Boomer upgrades.?
I mean, how do I not upvote that perfect Impression of Arny?
Gonna have to disagree with all musical complaints on this video because power blade has excellent music imo xD
Good to see another video by you dude ? Keep Up the Good work! Actually missed out on power Blade back in the day ? it looks awesome, I have to try it out. Greetings from Sweden
Hi NESComplex, nice video but I have a question : Do you always play video games with your sun glasses on ? 😉
Great job!
You are an amazing YouTuber my friend. As a 37 year old who grew up gaming in the late 80s/early 90s I absolutely love your vids.
Such a great review! I love how you make it funny too! I always love all your videos and can’t wait for the next one!
Awesome review, as always! The Sharp NES controller with a cameo appearance.. Loved the McLovin ID shot at the ID cart part, very clever ?… Power Blade is absolutely a fun game, as is Power Blade 2… I do concur with the only [minor] criticism – it is a bit too easy… Good stuff!
Great episode! I remember I used to see that game in every store back in the day, but I never played it, until about 8 years ago, although I've never tried to beat it, somehow I always end up playing something else. But your video made me wanna try again.
Glad to see a new video from you!
First time watching your videos… good stuff. Sub?
Watching this video brings me back to the good old NESComplex days of 2013, especially when I hear the words
"There are thousand of classic games…" Great video series
seriously man, you make the best videos. I love the level of detail you're willing to go in your videos…like what you did with the blender! Looking forward to the next one!
I played the original game for this on the family computer & it was power blazer.. Sucks you did not even mention it
great review!
