    yeah I'm having problems under v1.36 so i decided to give snes9x a go and it's working at full speed...Don't know whats goin on. I'd say dropin the resolution down a bit would prob solve the issue your havin.

    1024 is a bit overkill anyway, all the resolutions look the same above tv resolution anyway. As far as your problem goes, i think its a geforce thing, he fixed some issues a few releases back which specific geforce cards, but obviously not yours.

    gonna try and drop the res, havent had any other probelms with other games tho havent played them all yet :)

    Btw isnt Super Ghouls And Ghosts the hardest game ever made.

    Damn water :(

    zsnes i find is the best all rounder - but snes9x might play some games better

    still i reckon like bugs said you should lower the res - considering that 640x480 is more than tv res :)

    Yes it is:D It's still an excellent game but it can litterly drive you insane, resulting in lots of shouting at your monitor/TV. I actually managed to finish it on the C64(No easy feat) and of course you can always fire up FBA for the arcade version and use the cheats;)

    Cheats nah

    The zsnes thing has a cheat option but i wouldnt cheat in a game thats just plain fun doesnt rely on fancy intro movies or grat graphics or a FIFA licence to sell.

    Just fun tho i got all the european roms for Snes and there is only one Ghouls and Ghosts game ,Didnt Ghosts and Goblins come on Snes over here??

    Or was that US only??

    ghosts and goblins was the prequal to ghouls and ghosts. it may hav come out on the nes but no the snes.

    anyway kdja, i think you should know what did or did not come out on the snes in europe :)

    I've had a look at Super Ghouls n ghosts and it's actually considered the third game in the series. It has different weapons and levels to any previous games and is even harder then the arcade original!! They've realised it on GBA but at least thats got a save function:) Heres some screens i took from VisualBoyAdvance

    Allegdley 421 games made it to Snes in Europe and 621 to US.

    Played the arcade version of ghouls and ghosts, and after about a week (without save state or cheats) i managed to get to the second last level, defeat the boss there and then got this cutscene where the king talks to you and tells you that you can't hurt hades without "the power", and then the princess yakks on for a bit.....basically they send you back to the first level again. So i thought it had just upped the difficulty or something and played thru again. Got to the same place, same result, decided it was one of those things designed to steal your money in the arcade and i'm NEVER playing it again :P

    I did see shots of the arcade ending on gamemuseum.com but buggered if i know how they did it.

    To finish the game you need the "Psycho Cannon" (fireball) which you get from the second chest as a weapon on the first level the second time around, then it's a simple matter of whooping lucifer........
    Ending1 (No fireball)

    Then throws you back to level one to get fireball as described above

    Ending2 (Got fireball and beatin lucifer)

    Then it gives you a rundown on all the different creatures, how many points they're worth and the levels they feature on.
    The End

    I'm still refusing to play it ever again :)
    I did notice the princess saying something about a chest but it wasn't made that clear and considering 90% of the time when you pop a chest, you get either the annoying magician or a stupid weapon like the blue flame, i just steered clear of them. Get the daggers and never open one again :)
