Need Help Identifying Games

No way. It was made famous on the PC.

If we're going to find out the game, we need some details about the eyeball boss. Did it have tentacles, teeth, anything like that?

Could you draw a mock screenshot of the battle?

... It probably wouldn't help much, but it might be fun.

I haven't played this game in 14 years.  You're not gonna get a mock screenshot.  : )

I just remember that there was a big eyeball, and the ceiling around it dripped green stuff.  If it hit you it hurt you, but if it was allowed to build up it formed vertical pillars.  You could shoot out segments of the pillars, but the parts above would remain, defying gravity.  I think the ceiling also moved up and down.

It wasn't "BattleToads," and I'm pretty sure it wasn't "Contra" either.

I still don't know the game, but that sounds like a wicked-awesome final boss.

[Mega 2]

If memory serves it's a fun game, but not truly outstanding.  That's probably why no one recognizes it: it didn't earn the status of a classic like certain other N.E.S. games did.  But I'd still love to know what it was called.

Now that I think about it, it might have been one of the "Ninja Gaiden" games.  Is there anyone who's played through those who can tell me what the final bosses are like?

Final boss of Ninja Gaiden? Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.... yeah right.

[Mega 2]

What about "Ninja Gaiden 2?"
