Action 52 (NES) Playthrough - NintendoComplete

A beginning to end playthrough of every game on Active Enterprises' 1991 unlicensed NES game, Action 52.

Well, to be more accurate, a complete playthrough on all those games that can be played to completion (though very few of them have any "ending" besides looping back to the first level). Those that cannot be finished due to glitches and bugs are played as far as possible. These were played in emulators, so even those games that didn't work on the original cartridge on actual NES hardware are here and accounted for.

I want to be completely clear on the point that emulator speed and save options were abused to a ridiculous degree in making this video. I have no idea how anyone would have the tolerance for the coding mess here to attempt to play them legitimately.

Anyways, here are the games (labelled as they are in-game, all played in the order in which the game numbers them) and their play times:
