Knight Rider (NES) Playthrough - NintendoComplete

A playthrough of Acclaim’s 1989 NES game, Knight Rider. This video shows the entire mission mode. Only in the 80s would a smash hit TV show be able to be based on such an absurd premise. If you haven’t seen it, David Hasselhoff is a cop that gets shot in the face and is saved by some millionaire through loads of expensive operations. Said billionaire then gives David Hasselhoff a new identity and an AI controlled Trans-Am to fight crime, action hero style. Then the billionaire’s son, also David Hasselhoff, decides that he is disgruntled and becomes David Hasselhoff #1’s arch nemesis, riding around in a souped-up big-rig armed with rockets. Drama ensues. That is the plot in a nutshell. I’m not kidding. Anyways, if you ever watched it, you know just how entertaining this ridiculous plot could be to watch play out. Thankfully, the NES version is quite similar in that regard. Playing like RoadBlasters or a battle-modded Rad Racer, you control Michael (Hasselhoff #1) and KITT (the taking Trans-Am), racing across America to stop terrorists. That’s about it. It’s simple, it’s straightforward, and it’s an amazingly good time. The car upgrades allow for some strategic planning (get the engine upgrades early - that time limit can be brutal!), and it’s pretty fun to go launching your car over traffic while peppering enemy helicopters with bullets, lasers, and rockets. In my view, its probably Pack-In Video’s best game based on a license - I highly recommended it! ___ No cheats were used during the recording of this video.
