Those NES games were hard! I remember playing a bit of Castlevania and another one, Ghosts & Goblins I think, and always getting stuck on the first level. It was a lot more challenging when you couldn't save and had to start every play from the beginning!
Great work as always. The sword looks especially deadly.
Wow you used to play games?!! Are you still playing games these days? :o
I love playing games and though I used to play hard games like Ninja Gaiden, these days I prefer easy games that give me lots of saves and options and other nice features. Now that I don't have to spend all my free hours for art, I think I'm going to play games again :).
