introduction The three stooges was originally a game for a early gaming pc by the name of the amgia . It was deveploed by Cinema ware and Activison . For most of you that did not know the amgia was a mid 80s computer at the time that's prop bally why most of you people don't know what it is . Anyways Cine am aware and Activison for some reason remade the game on other systems such as the apple 2 PlayStation game boy advance and the Nintendo nes system . This game was mainly based off of the original black and white Three Stooges series . Anyways this is the Nintendo Entertainment system port I'm reviewing
Plot Well activison made the awful ghost busters 1 for nes So They made the intro starting off With The Ghost busters 2 logo then Curly Moe and Larry show up saying Hey fellas were in the wrong game . Then Larry said hey this looks like a kids game, Then ending off with Moe saying you Imbeciles then slapping Larry and Curly they said ow . Then after 10 seconds They get back in the Right game with the Three stooges intro from the original Three Stooges series . There was a walking part of the intro showing the deveploers of the game and Easter eggs. But that got removed do to hardware limitations on the nes system. So it shows A guy laughing at the orphanage . And a old lady of the orphanage that was crying . The Three Stooges walk by and say. whats the matter lady ? . The lady said that our orphanage house needs repairs and we do not have any money. The lady also said that To make things worse if they don't pay a rent of 5000 dollars in 30 days they will lose everything aka meaning that the orphanage will get shut down or taken away. So the Three Stooges said don't worry lady well get the dough. So the main objective of the game is to collect enough money by playing mini games similar to the build up of Mario party although that is a different game . And not to mention this game is older. If you collect more than 5000 for the rent you can get some special parts of the endings. I'm not really sure if that's available for the nes version because I never made it past 5000 .
Graphics Again the nes was a very powerful system these graphics are good and well detailed if you cant tell what there based on its not only the original black and white films . its also based on the original amgia game. the graphics are some what bad some places have not got full texture in it . This was one of the main games that deveploers really pushed the limitations of a console . And the sprites are a little grainy. Graphics gets a 8 these graphics on screen are not bad considering the aspects of the nes system.
Before I get to sound I will explain the game play for some of those wondering how is the game played .
How to get started on mini games you need to press the A button At Moe,s hand cursor at the right time depending on what mini game is available or which one you wanna play. You will get various money depending on how well you did on the mini games. The results of the money come after you finish the mini games . Note there are Some mini games that will make you do some mutiltask in order to complete it.
Sound ok I never watched the original three stooges films but I have heard of them . The Sound of the nes is lacking mutiple voices of The three Stooges. You hardly hear most of the Three Stooges in most of the game. Soundtrack again I'm not sure if this is based of the original black and white Three Stooges films. Its missing most of the amgia s original soundtrack. There are only about 6 songs or themes in the Entire game. 1 being the made fun of Ghost busters logo also that's the banker theme. 2 The theme after you select a mini game . 3 a song that loops over and over again I'm not sure what that ones supposed to be. 4 the Boxing mini game theme. 5 the Three stooges Cover art intro . 6 the little money jingle that happens after a mini game is completed. Sound gets a 6 really missing a lot of stuff that was in the amgia version of the three stooges.
Addictiveness Although there is some flaws with this port I still happen to really enjoy the new challenge of the mini games with that alone makes the game addicting. Addictiveness gets 7 I really happen to enjoy the wacky mini games and challenge of them .
Story I explained it in plot the story was kind of sad.but its really a okay part of the game . Story gets a 5 its a not a really good story although it,s a little sad.and dramatic
Depth if you wanna beat the entire game. Or collect a whole lot of money. The three stooges and with the mutiltask mini games will take a while to master . The mini games alone makes this game take a while ,Depth gets a 7
Difficulty Prop bally the biggest thing people complain about this game. The Mutil tasking mini games are really hard to master at. This stomped me like a wall do to the mutil tasking in games like the pie and pizza fight. And the cracker contest. Difficulty gets a 7 really hard game.
If you are wondering what the cracker contest . Is its a contest were you don't eat a cracker like the round shape kind. You eat a soup called cracker.
Anyways Its still a pretty nice game to play The three stooges nes game is hard . If its too hard for you I can recommend you play the gba version . I still happened to really like this one final ratings 7.5 not a bad game
Note the only reason I explained what the amgia was because if some people wanna know about it.
