Released in February 1992, Terminator 2 on the Nintendo Entertainment System arrived at the peak of one of the biggest pop-culture moments of the early ’90s. Loved by some, dismissed by others, the game has remained a curiosity for decades — and at 34 years old, it’s still being talked about.

This video opens with a short documentary-style look at the game’s history, the overwhelming popularity of Terminator 2: Judgment Day in 1991, and why the NES adaptation became such a polarizing release. From there, the video transitions into a full, no-death playthrough with live PiP commentary, strategy breakdowns, and reflections on what the game felt like to play at release — and what it feels like now.

Along the way, I explore how Terminator 2 on NES quietly laid groundwork that would later influence Terminator 2D: No Fate, connecting a flawed 8-bit experiment to a modern, celebrated revival.

This is not just a playthrough — it’s a look at why this game still matters.

Terminator 2D: No Fate — Exploring Its Contra DNA (No-Death Run)

Reading Time: < 1 minuteTerminator 2D: No Fate is a modern run-and-gun built from classic Contra DNA. This video explores its design lineage through a full no-death playthrough and analysis.

Terminator 2D: No Fate feels less like a modern action game and more like a lost run-and-gun classic—especially Contra.

In this no-death full playthrough, I break down how the game’s weapon behavior, enemy grids, and boss encounters echo classic Contra design, while also drawing comparisons to the original NES Terminator 2. Throughout the run, I point out visual callbacks, gameplay patterns, and design choices that strongly suggest old-school inspiration over modern trends.

I also touch on why the T-800’s design in No Fate feels closer to Arnold’s stunt double than Schwarzenegger himself, and how that might’ve influenced the developers’ artistic direction.

This run finishes death-free with an extended attack chain and a near-5 million score, while keeping the focus on observation, pattern recognition, and classic arcade fundamentals.

A brand new Stealth Ninja method that completely NERFS that last guard who gives everyone fits. Put Sarah’s foot right inside the dark tile in front of the water cooler and you’re golden. Neither the guard nor the security camera can see you, and you have full view of the guard’s movements and can time your attack on him perfectly without blowing the undetected run. This Stealth Ninja nightmare just got smashed!

This guide walks you through the Pescadero Hospital level where you must not be seen by any enemy excluding the T-1000. You will have a couple unavoidable instances where the T-1000 sees you, but this doesn’t count towards the trophy.

Unboxing and review of this kick-ass 8-bit Jason mask display by Nightmare Trash! This is the “victory version” presented in how it might look after you’ve slayed Jason in the infamous Friday the 13th NES game. I’ve done that a time or two over the years, so this one was an automatic impulse-buy! Very cool product! Shout out to my dentist office for making me wait, otherwise I might not have seen the IG ad. 😄

Super-easy method to find and capture the rare Tsuchinoko in Metal Gear Solid Delta for the “Believe It Or Not” trophy/achievement, as well as how to recapture it after the torture scene to add it back into your inventory to earn the Infinity Face Paint (infinite ammo!) at the end of the game. Works on all difficulties.

Exact same method as in the original game. Uploaded for those searching for Delta-specific imagery.

Decent run at a non-lethal win against The Pain on Extreme difficulty in Metal Gear Solid Delta. ‘Probably could’ve got him faster if I hadn’t got a lil sloppy at the end of the first phase, but I’ll take it. ‘Figured I’d get the most aggravating boss outta the way first this time around. 😄

Timer begins the moment I gain control of Snake.

The old glitch of staying in first-person to avoid the bullet bees no longer works in the new version.

The wait is finally over! Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater is here! I was so jazzed for early access I broadcasted live for the first time in over 7 years. This is legit my first experience with the game and it’s new control scheme. Things are definitely different and will take some getting used to. But the game looks phenomenal, and aside from the usual early-launch issues that seem to plague just about every new game these days, I’m super-excited to experience this story again with a fresh coat of brand new paint. 💥🐍
