So has anyone here ever played this great classic?

It has great game play mechanics and I remember trying to beat it for a week straight w/ no sleep except four hours occasionally, with it paused when i did sleep.

the weapons were awesome, levels challenging, enemy's and bosses were cool to beat. Even the NFS-plug music was great.

see the video:

video is okay but doesn't do the game's graphics justice....you just gotta play it.

I take no credit for the video, just found it and thought I'd post it for nostalgia. As well as to give an idea what game I do mean clearly. Feel free to discuss memories and FAQ's or strategies.

The game was OKay, I would say NES has better titles but this one can be fun to play as predecessor of some sort. The most similar game on NES is recca summer carnival. It also slightly reminds me of Crisis Force.
The gameplay in image fight is good and the game itself is very hard. I played it through with save states. The final stage has catch me with the music. Also the final stage is the best looking place in the game.
Here I made an EDIT of the final stage music. Rendered drums and melody separately and edited them a bit made the song sound with something like "real" drums.
Check it out. Took me like 4-5 hours.

i enjoyed Image Fight, i thought it was pretty good. i definitely prefer the orange options to the blue ones. being able to shoot in the direction i want was sweet. and i like the other weapons you could have. i also like the attack when you press the A+B you "throw" your options, that was really helpful. another good thing was, i like being able to choose how fast my ship flew...(because quicker is not always better)...thats a great idea, maybe something we could put into TGL2.

my only gripe is the graphics. the solid blue background sucks.

and i have no opinion on the sound, because i was listening to music...so i turned the sound off.


over all Great Game! good pick Theoden

P.S. the level 3 boss took me a while....he was hard

The Wiki article:

its actually red and blue pods, but they couldn't get the color right for an odd reason. The title screen's main letters are meant to be in gold with blue shadow high-lighting it.



kinda sad I never got to see the next version or a arcade model here in the US.  

Its a top classic next to the Asteroids arcade original; in this order for shooters I favor to play:

1.Asteroids-Arcade
2.Image Fight-NES
3.Darius Gaiden-Saturn (Sega)

very cool... boss three was pretty tough.. the final boss was a push over though when i found that you can destroy the vacuum things.. now it says special game... harder?

That is a nice edit, finally got to hear it, still love the original track though.
