Ghosts N Goblins

[Aabra]

I love this game, I played it a ton as a kid. I'm actually pretty good at it. (as good as you can possibly get considering its ridiculous level of difficulty) For some reason however I can't seem to figure out how to continue in the arcade version of it. The counter starts counting down, I try hitting the insert coin button... the start button.... nothing seems to work. Once the counter has finished however I can start again from the beginning by using these buttons.

Does anybody else have this problem? How can I fix this?

Just checked... I cannot continue either. I tried having additional credits in the machine before I started too but I couldn't continue

Ok - I found the answer here www.arcadehits.net/datObase/makaimur.....

To continue a game, insert a coin and keep fire pressed while pressing player 1 or player 2.

Nice.

There is some hilarious grammar in the NES version if you can complete the game. (I always did it by using the level select cheat). They might be in the arcade version too.
