The RetroBeat: This YouTube channel helps you beat those hard NES games

NES games are great! They can also be hard. That’s why I’m glad I discovered the YouTube channel U Can Beat Video Games.

Yes, video walkthroughs are nothing new. Yet I appreciate this channels approach. First off, each video starts with some context on the game’s history. Then the guides feature voiceover on top mostly real-time gameplay footage. This means that you can mostly just play along with the video.
