"Yeah, he was playing this really bizarre side-scroller."
"You could switch between a dragon, a mouse, a guy who threw bells, and a lady in full plate armor."
--- Thats a little description for you. A friend is looking for this game... he can't remeber the name or company for the life of him.

He is in for quite a search if he's after the real cart, I've only seen it once in the wild in 10 years. Of course I would pass on it to get Rescue Rangers instead.. gah. Later got it on Ebay for a less than average price.

I don't know where you got "a lady in full plate armor", you must have got two games mixed up. But besides that the game you're looking for is Little Samson for NES , as others have already stated. The thing is , the game is pretty damn rare , and will cost you around $35+. I saw go out and buy it , as it is one of the best games for the NES.

Wow, I've seen that several times before and DIDN'T buy it!
i love this site. A person opens a thread and says something like i'm trying to think of this game where you pushed start on the screen and the guy you played wore a blue boot. and in like 10 minutes three people will tell you the name of the game, the development company, the release date, and probably the sales figures if you ask.
awesome.

Castle of Dragon in the arcades had a guy with blue boots, if I remember say, though I can't remember if it was p1 or p2 (one was green too?) Same for Gladiator/Ougon no Siro (another old dodgy coin-op).
Don't have my handy dandy Gens nearby so I can't say what the Genesis game I'm thinking of is - but this guy's armor can change colors! Oooer.
As for NES, well, MegaMan definitely had blue boots!
Point's well taken, though...the folks here ARE amazing; hats off to them!

Little Samson is one of the best Nes games made,the us version seems to be rather rae, the pal version are seen more often, still it's not that common, if you see it buy it, it's worth your money!
