Have you tried watching speedruns?E.G. : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nxk6k82EyPE
sseb22 18 Jul 2018 10:24
I explained how to get it in the dedicated thread of the achievement
Akerberus 8 Oct 2019 18:14
Really fun set here... I especially like that it motivates me to do an expert run AND a normal run, instead of going straight to the expert cheevos first which can be stressful. Each cheevo is well described and has a great icon too.
SuplexJackson 10 Apr 2020 09:31
Nice set! It's not too easy or hard, just the right amount of challenge to motivate me to play it again. I used the GoodGen "(U) [!]" version ROM.
fepeli 4 May 2020 00:34
Great set! Thanks!
Tymestalker 12 Jun 2020 02:22
Really good set. Though Earth Expert caused so much frustration. Thanks for this ^^

Spectacular game! This version is better than the SNES. A plot well ahead of its time when it comes to games.
LeFrance 15 Aug 2021 04:39
I tried to use Flashback (Europe) RevA Rom as suggested but, it's not recognizing my profile. I'm using the MegaDrive BlastEm in Retroarch. Anyone can help me with that?
Skuall 15 Aug 2021 06:25
Same problem here
SuplexJackson 15 Aug 2021 09:19
I just tried both the US and EUR ROMs (the original releases, not the "Rev A" versions) and they were both detected fine, so try those. I don't think the "Rev A" versions are even included in No-Intro sets anymore for whatever reasons.
LeFrance 15 Aug 2021 23:54
I download the whole set of No-Intro. None of the flashback versions work for me. I tried the Europe Rev A, the USA version, the europe version, the japan version and the usa alt 1. None worked.
SuplexJackson 22 Aug 2021 01:54
I did some searching and found that only older No-Intro sets have the "Rev" and "Alt" versions. They're not included in the current Genesis No-Intro set, probably because they weren't good dumps. So just use a more current set (2019 onward should be good).
LeFrance 27 Aug 2021 22:29
Yup! Thanks!, It worked. So the thing is to have a No-Intro Set recent. I downloaded the 2021 version and it worked for me.

I appreciate everyone who creates achievements but to make it to such a rom from such a specific romset is really, really frustrating.
sseb22 1 Apr 2022 04:41
I’m pretty sure they don’t do that on purpose just to annoy us. It has to do with the memory management I guess.
tuffasagong 1 Apr 2022 04:45
Ya I am sure, I was just a little annoyed. Playing through it now and I appreciated the achievements. I have never beat this game never made it past the Death Tower or whatever and I still own it CIB from as a kid. Thanks guys. Sorry for my outburst.
