He's not really a gargoyle. They only called him that just to hide the fact that you're controlling a winged red devil from Christian moms.

That's probably why Demon's Crest sold so poorly in the US, since it has demon in the name and there's a red devil-looking dude on the cover.

Doubt that. I recall reading in NP that DC had a limited run. Mega Man this was not.

I remember this game! I remember when the local video store was phasing out snes games, they had a huge bucket of all the snes games for a dollar, my brother got this and i got kirbys dream course. my tiny stupid brain was like "Oh snes games are old and boring so lets just get one" so I missed the opportunity to have a giant bin i could dive into scrooge mcduck style of snes games.

Yep, still kicking myself over that one. though we did get a few more games

My fave snes game. Picked this up at a bargain bin store for like 5 bucks when I was like 9 years old. Didn't even know about the ultimate gargoyle password/super hard optional boss until later because I always finished the game with one health upgrade missing.

>It wouldn't have language options like super metroid...would it?

You're shit out of luck there.

The options are all in English, but item descriptions are in runes, so then it becomes trial and error as to what to use and where.

Play it through in ROM form, and if you get so stuck that you'd throw the cart out the window, you know it won't be worth the investment.

What a fucking piece of shit this guy is, he's such a god damn cunt that he can't even sit still long enough for a god damn screenshot. Takes up most of the god damn screen, you can stand on him which does more damage to you, you can;t hit him off screen but his flying fist sure can hit you even if he's vacationing in Florida on top of that you can't walk on the ground you just sit there wiggling your legs around going "GEE I DUNNO BOSS, I'S IS STUCKS OR SOMETHIN".

I'm liking this game a lot so far

He's not really a gargoyle anyway, right? That was a just a localization for North America. Red Arremer is a devil.
