An Angry Replay - Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1989)
Переглядів 1754 місяці тому
After a bit of a break, we're back with another angry replay. Earlier this spring I played through the Cowabunga Collection's version of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles from 1989 and man oh man do I have some feelings about it... As a life long TMNT fan, with a collection of Leonardo figurines far larger than it needs to be, this game is so polarizing to me. I love playing as the Turtles but it's ...

Metroid Prime Remastered - Samus just won the Super Bowl
Well they are all sold out minus the black one as of 29 August 2024. So I guess that answers the question.
😂 I’ll break out the ukelele for my apology video
@@nohangovergames 😹
I have one of these things and I really like it. I feel like the virtual boy is unfairly hated. It's hard to see what they were going for without seeing it in person.
Yeah it definitely needs to be experienced to appreciate it. Getting harder and harder to do that with original hardware unfortunately.
@@nohangovergames yeah I had to go through so many hoops to get mine to work properly. After playing some of the games though I was surprised how well they help up. Marios tennis especially surprised me.
Really cool quiz!
It's antics like this that made me hate the device and the company. It's vastly overrated despite it's limited capabilities. It's also not that comfortable to use. Specially compared to devices like the AYN odin 2, retroid pocket 3 plus, 4 pro(Both with grips) and anbernic RG556. I just don't give a damn anymore on it's screen and FPGA gimmick anymore with that asking price.
Yeah it can definitely feel alienating and like a cash grab. You’re right, Retroid Pocket 3 was legit and I love mine. Don’t own any Anbernic but I hear good things.
@@nohangovergames I still use my Rp3 plus to play psp, n64, gamecube,ps2 and some game streaming. All these features the pocket lacked.
I'm still using retro flag pie case and a rog ally so I no need to switch device
Someone can't afford an artist either
Think I'll stick with Anbernic's flavor of the month device
The machined aluminum shell cases are 200 plus. If you pay for installation it’s around the 500 price. It’s not as crazy price wise.
I bought noir and my collection worths 1700 usd
Even niche hobbyists have their limits. I expect it's still profitable to make the device, but charging so much definitely isn't doing them any favors. Also, while many no doubt are willing to upgrade, I imagine most are content with their plastic version which they already paid a lot of money for. These systems aren't cheap, so an upgrade is asking a lot when many people likely took a great deal of time considering buying the device to begin with for its insanely high price. It's more authentic to have a plastic device anyway. The original Game Boy wasn't cased in aluminum and people loved it all the same. I don't know, if it were me, I'd never pay that much even for the plastic version, but I do think it's a very sleek system that's great for an authentic experience if you, for some reason, want third-party hardware to play first-party physical games. Personally, if I'm paying that much, I'm just going to buy a Game Boy. I'm sure there are great battery options by now to replace the old AA battery system. My old GBA had one, after all. When I last checked on it and it was dead, I unscrewed the battery component from it and just used it as a replacement battery cover, but I kept the parts in the _extremely_ slim chance I could ever find a battery replacement to fit in there.
Bought a Noir one. Yeah, the price is crazy, but I'll sell my regular black edition to compensate. Yolo.
I wonder what if any impact that could have on the resale market, broadly speaking. I sold my LCD Steam Deck when I got my Asus ROG Ally as a gift. I’m sure the resale value was lower after that and the OLED came out. Maybe the same thing here.
People seem to have a lot of anger towards this. They already sell a much cheaper version of the Pocket and there is clearly interest for an all aluminum case since someone made one. It's not like people cry over pricing of Ferrari or Gucci. This is a premium product with a premium product pricing. It's probably not for you and it has nothing to do with retro market going anywhere. Lambirghinis are expensive but there are still cheaper cars for the mass market.
I hear you. Who WOULDN’T want a Lamborghini, right? I guess I just wonder how sustainable something like this is for Analogue since it’s already a little difficult to get some of their other stuff. A friend of mine always says they’d print money if they just had better availability. Oh well, I’m sure I’ll see someone with one in person and then wish I’d gotten one 😂
The anger is justified, however. You can only squeeze your niche so much. Double the price for some cheap metal casing is in no way defendable. But of course you can simply not buy it. If people want to waste their cash on an overpriced plain improvement, that's their business; they have no one but themselves to blame if they wind up regretting it. A fool and their money are soon to be parted, after all.
@@Lucifronz Nobody is doing anything immoral, illegal or even wrong. Hate is rarely justified and very often plain waste of energy. Put that energy into something positive.
@@M2tiasTHIS
I bought one.
Let me know what you think when it arrives!
@@nohangovergames This is the noir version, will be late in August. You're more likely to find someone else's review sooner :)
Could buy a PlayStation or Xbox for that money they're taking the pi55
For real. Or you could almost buy a Series S AND an original model Pocket.
Same people complaining about the price of this are the same people who complained about the NT Mini price when it was available & then complained they couldn’t get one after it was sold out months later. 🙄
That’s fair. I missed the NT Mini and then the Noir one (I think that was the one) came out for a lot more and didn’t get one.
personally prefer the original
That blue one was pretty legit
My biggest regret is letting people borrow my games and not ever getting them back 😂
For real. Everyone has that one friend who never returns stuff they borrow.
best 3d is resident evil revelations. the 3d is so good.
I haven’t played that one but now that you mention it I’ll check it out. 👍🏽
yeah man, that game is just timeless...
@arishetoh it’s surprising how many games hold up 👍🏽
Awesome story for the console.
Thanks! 👍🏽
My favorite would be this one. But I don’t actually have one since I decided you would want it more than me! #bestfriends4life! I’m so happy you still obviously love it after all these years. It found the perfect home. ❤️
Did…did I ever repay you those $200??? 😂 😜
No clue. 😂😂
What's funny is the SNES 3ds has to be the special edition I've seen the most frequently. There's SO many of them out there. But i think there's few people that are will part with them and a lot of people who want them. It's about the same price as the Fire Emblem Fates one, which I've NEVER seen someone playing. I got Paper mario TTYD fairly recently at $95. It's in great condition though. Like better than the one you featured (mainly the box. No sticker residue, for example. The plastic of the case is just flawless. No tiny scratches, etc.) Now I never played this game as a kid, but playing it for the first time, I loved it. I think you should definitely give it a try. My biggest regret has to be selling my old PS2 and collection from my childhood. I had it for a while, but at some point I turned it into gamestop. I think i was convinced because I was mostly playing PC games, and I figured I could emulate it. I didn't have anything crazy difficult to get, but it sucks to have to rebuy it. I'm glad I didn't do that with my gamecube collection though. I refused to get rid of it. If nothing else, I still had the wii to play it on. I got some pretty expensive games, including Gale of Darkness with everything included in great shape.
I’ve played it once, but I think you’re right, I should go through it again. Did you play the remake on Switch also?
i gave my friend an OG atari ET cartridge for his birthday a couple years ago, it was an awesome gift but damn i still wish i got to say i had it in my collection
I love how even a bad game can be something prized in a collection.
Selling my Dreamcast collection. Covid year, needed more money for bills asap. All US controllers/VMUs and most Japanese exclusive Controllers/VMUs. Japanese Black VGA and LAN to go with my Sega Sports DC. Mini keyboard and Mouse. About 4 dozen games, including some of the most expensive titles for the system. I sold off 99% of my CD/DVD/Bluray collection as well. Not quite as regrettful with that though.
4 dozen games?!? 😭 💔 We almost sold all our Blu-rays recently and then decided against it. They came in handy a few times as the power company was working on the lines around here and somehow managed to knock out the internet several times for several days 🤦🏻♂️
I regret NOT buying pokemon black 2 (or white 2, I dont remember which) at $15.000 chilean pesos, which was/is like 15 dollars
It’s over $100 USD for just the loose cartridge these days isn’t it?
I regret selling my PSVR. I actually prefer it over my quest 2
We actually did the same. Definitely played the PSVR more than our Quest 2 also.
My biggest reaget turning down was an 1900 Dkr. (around 300 dollar) offer for my Playstation 2 copy of Persona 3 Fes (pal)
Ouch!
I need that game so bad
100%
Too easy, too hard or just right?
@@nohangovergames too easy
Copy that, next one will be more difficult. Thanks for the feedback 👍🏼
I've played this as a kid, took the same game, and played it on a new console and it kicked my ass everytime, even with walkthroughs. Recently ive beaten it twice on that little walmart Nintendo and almost had a heart attack each time, that last level is the GOT.....damned devil. But it is off my bucket list now😁
Yeah it’s wild how a game from childhood can feel so different as a grownup. I was telling my brother the other day how it felt like it took an entire summer for us to beat the original Zelda. Now it’s a day long, maybe two day long process. Similarly I tried playing Duck Tales the other day and died so fast whereas when we were kids I swear we crushed that game 😂
Played it on my Xbox Series X, had a great time with it. I did watched the first 2 Robocop films back in the late 1990's when I was way too young to watch violent films, lol. The developers did an excellent job, they also made that awesome Terminator game a few years back.
I’ve heard great things about Terminator: Resistance. Imagine how amazing it would be if they did a remake of that RoboCop Vs The Terminator game from back in the day
Definitely not perfect, by the time it opened up into metroidvania status I was over it
looks a good game for lowlifes hackers
I've played the messenger before via game pass but never finished the game.
How far did you get? I have a habit of not finishing games but this one I had to see to the end. Thanks for watching!
@@nohangovergamesI think I only beaten the first level then forgot to go back to the game since I had other games in my backlog I needed to finish
they already took it down, could it be possible if you still have the zip file to make a copy of it for me and put it in a google drive link or something? I would very much appreciate it.
You're welcome drive.google.com/file/d/1hSDnokZ2b3IJhmAysgaLS3REFzG1td7Y/view
@@VelvetCharm You are awesome!! Thank you! 😍
Please upload the installation files to the pirate bay!
@@magicwordxyzzy I don't have an account for that site, nor do I know how to upload things to that site. Sorry.
Yall got an extra link for that? ;)
Nice vid, keep up the good work
Thanks for watching, will do!
One other suggestion, I think the title and thumb of this vid needs to be updated. I assumed "Angry Replay" was a series you have but looking at your other vids, it seems to be a one-off and your voice doesn't sound angry at all(which is good, would've been annoying to hear 5 min of angry speaking). Maybe something more like "Why Mario Odyssey Isn't As Great As Everyone Thinks" but not those words exactly, just that kind of feel, to intrigue someone who's never heard of you. And the thumbnail should emphasize some visually interesting part of your vid, maybe highlighting one of your points, either the mermaid, Broodals, level design with an arrow pointing that says "Lazy", "Boring" or similar. Don't take those literally, just experiment based on what you've seen from other successful channels and how their thumbs emphasize something from the vid. I've seen tons of successful thumbs where the image shown in the thumb isn't even in the video, but it's a reference to something in the video and it's visually striking enough to get someone's attention
I'm not against an unpopular opinion, but I think you need more substance to your argument. I can agree that some levels lacked detail, but most were fine. The mermaid looked weird but how many people would have even remembered what it looked like if you hadn't pointed it out? The rabbits were subs for koopalings, yeah, but since they all had hat-related attacks, it wouldn't have fit with the koopalings to give a hat to them, they would've looked weird, or maybe your review would have said "Nintendo was so lazy they just gave hats to the Koopalings". Your final assessment of 6.5 out of 10 feels unnecessarily harsh. You also said "has a score of 96, but it's by no means perfect". But that's exactly why it got a 96 and not a 100. but keep making videos. I clicked when I saw the vid recommended and watched the entire thing plus gave a comment so for UA-cam's algorithm I think I helped it as much as I'm able(likes don't help the algorithm, just as how dislikes don't hurt)
Can I say how much I appreciate your comment? Seriously, you put a lot of thought and detail into your assessment and I love that we can disagree on something and be civil. 🧡 You’re right about the Broodals/Koopalings. And 6.5 may be harsh. I think after I finish Pikmin 4 and later this year after Super Mario Wonder, I’ll replay this game yet again with more open eyes.
@@nohangovergames Funny enough I originally had a longer comment critiquing each of your points but deleted most of it because I didn't want it to come across as "this is a bad video" kind of vibe. I have no issues with the video style/approach/theme, in fact I like "unpopular" opinions, I just thought the argument needed more to make a convincing case so that it didn't seem like it was unpopular just to be unpopular. I think you're fine giving 6.5 if you can explain why. Maybe compare it to what score you'd give other mario games and explain where Odyssey falls short compared to them, something like that. Or at least the reasons why it didn't deserve a 7 or 8. It may not be a 9, but I'd say it's a solid 7.5-8, with 10 being a PERFECT game(mario 64 isn't even a perfect 10, I'm not sure what game is, tbh)
I do agree that the name imprisoning war got me excited too and they really just confused all of us more by calling it that 😂 I love this game, I like the story more than Botw but they didn’t have to do that to us lawl
Exactly! I absolutely LOVE the game overall but it’s just this one part that made me feel a little defeated 😂. Pushing 60 hours thus far
@@nohangovergames I’m pushing 145…
After my brothers brought it over to play the multiplayer together, I'm seriously tempted to get a copy myself. Though the four of us were stuck in a stalemate for hours, we did have fun 😊. I also watched them play some campaign missions against the Enhanced Vision lady and had to resist offering too many annoying suggestions.
I love that a stalemate like that can still be fun, especially with family 🧡🧡🧡
The MCU drew in a bunch of people who hadn't been introduced to comic norms. They expect the characters they know to translate directly from format to format but someone who reads comics knows that writers and artists can have drastically different takes on the same characters and people often have a favorite version of a character.
Also I didn't realize Keegan Michael Key was a Marvel character.
His superhero name is “A-a-ron”
@@nohangovergames I knew it, can't fool me... I taught school in the inner city for 20 years
Great video! Thank you for such a well made review.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Like vídeo games ✌🏼😁😉👍🏻
A really good review, and I’m not even very interested in Metroid 😂
Great review. Metroid prime is a childhood memory for me and was the introduction for the fps genre for me. Ive been a Nintendo gamer ever since I received a Gameboy color and pokemon blue for Christmas
Great review. As someone who had only a gameboy growing up, I'm really excited to take this one for a spin on my switch.
Thank you! Are you playing any of the GB on NSO? I haven’t started any yet
Great review!
Glad you enjoyed it
Great review! Evil West was a must have for me since it was done by the same folks who made the rebooted Shadow Warrior trilogy. I 100%ed Evil West a week prior to writing this comment and I enjoy it's Devil May Cry meets God of War meets Doom set in a steampunk version of the old west type deal!
