It’s been a long time but I also remember this game being difficult. Time to try again.

Use the grenade and pause on every other boss. Ez wins lol

Not every boss is affected by that, but the most ridiculously difficult ones seem to be.

For those not familiar, there's a glitch on some bosses where if you throw a grenade at the weak spot on the boss and pause during the explosion, game logic mostly stops, but it keeps running the damage check every frame, so they die in a couple seconds when you unpause

Right, usually 1, 3, 5 and i think 6. Which is what I mentioned being every other boss lol Been a while since Ive played, google will help you.

My best friend in 4th grade could beat it as many times as you liked. Same with nearly every game though haha. I still have my release-window (we didn't have exact dates then) copy!

Its one I like having a retropie for. I don't have decades of my life to keep trying to beat a game. Save states make it a little easier.
