Bloodiest Game: Despite Nintendo's "No Blood" censorship-happy days, there were still a number of games that showed or described blood here and there. When you shoot the enemies in the 3D bases in Golgo 13, there is some blood. Shadowgate had some pretty graphic descriptions of it. But perhaps no NES game was swimming in buckets of blood like Monster Party. When you pass the giant tree in the first level, all the happy faces in the background become skulls with blood pouring out of every orifice! The between-level scenes show a bunch of skeletons halfway submerged in a pool of blood. I'm pretty sure that red stuff surrounding the status window at the bottom is supposed to be blood, too. My theory is that they only got away with this because the blood is only used as background, and it doesn't actually come out of you or the enemies when they get hit. However, the ending sequence is extremely freaky, too...
