[NES] Sector Z, Goonies, and others would like a word [Atari] E.T. has entered the chat
Was ET actually difficult or just unclear how to progress? I swear I finished it when I was a kid but the amount of games I've finished in my life is extremely tiny, if things get too hard I just go play something else for awhile (looking at every stealth mission shoehorned into non stealth game). So maybe I just misremembered finishing it but I sure played it a lot before I got an NES.
If you managed to finish ET that'd put you in a club of one person I have met in person or online who has done it.
After reading a walkthrough I'm confident I beat at least one round of the game, heh, maybe I misinterpreted that for the game ending screen (he gets on the spaceship at the end of the round for those that don't know).. If there're no pits in the first round I believe I made it further than that at because I remember them well.
Though with my memory these days I'm happy when I leave work with everything I intended to so not saying it's completely accurate I mostly just remember ET getting on a ship.
