Episode 24

Bionic Commando is one of the most innovative games for the NES! It's an action platformer like Mega Man or Contra, but unlike those games, Bionic Commando has NO JUMP BUTTON! Instead the hero must grapple around the expertly designed levels with his Bionic Arm.

This game started out in the arcade, but the underwent a major evolution when it was redesigned for the NES. The original arcade release was linear, while the NES game allowed players to choose their own paths.

So how did this game go from a simple arcade game to an NES cult classic? How did localization shape the version that we got in North America and Europe? And what is Bionic Commando's legacy in Modern times? In today's episode we'll discover all of that!

And then we'll dive deep into the game, where we will learn:

* How to complete EVERY AREA in the game, even the optional ones!

* Where to find EVERY ITEM and UPGRADE!

* How to power up FAST so we'll be ready for any challenge!

* Recommended EQUIPMENT for every level!

* The simple strategy to NEVER RUN OUT of CONTINUES!

* Secret SHORTCUTS to get through the most difficult levels!

* Where to find EVERY WEAPON, even Super Joe's Machine Gun!
