Funny Ghost's 'N Goblins was just mentioned I had just played it last week actually, the arcade version. From my recall, Haunted Castle was at least manageable, GnG is unforgiving in almost every way, save for the re-suiting of armor at the end of every level and 5 drops of armor in the entire game in case you lost it earlier in the level. It Makes you go through it, twice! It hurts your wallet, if you're not using MAME, (heres looking at the two red guards at the end of level 5 during the 2nd quest)! Haunted Castle at least gives you the courtesy to cut you off at a 5 credit limit.
