Game Description |
Hey, this game ain't so bad! In terms of the series, it beats the hell out of part 2, but it can't quite live up to the standard set by the arcadey genius of the original Kid Niki (FU! FU! FUUUUUU!). Few games ever actually HAVE lived up to this standard, however, so you can't really hold Kid Niki 3 accountable for such a failure. I guess.
Even if you've never played a Kid Niki game before, though, you should still check this one out; at first, it appears to be your average multiscrolling collect-the-keys-and-hit-stuff platformer, but there's a surprising (for an NES game) amount of gameplay variety to be found here. Aside from running around, jumping, and bonking stuff with your bonking stick, you can also slide, charge up for a spin attack, and hang off of walls and ledges, among other such feats. The control's a little floaty, and the game itself seems to suffer from...like, some weird constant jerky glitchiness (Kid Niki 3 appears to be programmed by the same people who did all those terrible early NES arcade ports like Ghosts'n Goblins and Athena, if that's any indication), but other than that, it's a colorful, happy little gem of a game. You play now!

Translation Description |
The storyline of this game is very simple: Save the princess and beat the kidnapper evil guy, similar to Super Mario Bros. series.
This game was loved by players, it has good music, it's colorful and it got excellent sprites.
It was very popular under the name "Super Mario 14", a pirated version of this game.
The player can beat the game in short time (around 30 minutes).
If the player is a newbie, it can take a lot more time, specially the challenging last battle.
The purpose is not to tell a great story, but only enjoy running and jumping with the character, so probably a translation is not really, needed but here it is.
Title screen was edited and it tries to keep the original look of the font.
The translated game was also modified to be compatible with all emulators. |
