10 Most Memorable NES Minibosses

In video games, final bosses get all the glory. I mean you probably remember Bowser and Mother Brain … but what about those mini bosses, "the assistant managers of evil"?

Crave Online has a neat run down of 10 of the Most Memorable NES Minibosses. Take, for example, Abobo from Double Dragon:

Abobo may just be the most unfortunate looking thug to ever appear in a fighting game to this day. With a head like a giant meatball, accented by a truly bitchen handlebar mustache, Abobo looks like a grotesquely muscled leather daddy in purple capris. His comical appearance won’t stop him from kicking the sh-t out of Billy and Jimmy Lee, so be sure to attack first and laugh later when confronted by Abobo.

    You better have "jump-kicking" ability by the time you reach the first Abobos, otherwise you're totally fucked.
