Pokemon Radical Red - ROM Hacked
So one would think that since I played through Pokemon Radical Red all the way up to the Elite 4 and Champion challenge on the absolute easiest mode possible, I'd be able to finish, at least, the main campaign, right? Right? I mean, I got all the way there, may as well.
I couldn't even get past Lorelai.
Even with a meta team I made using an infinite rare candy cheat code, I had to concede...
Maybe I am just a filthy casual (I'm sure everyone will say so in the comments) but damn, regardless of my incompetence, Radical Red is hard.
But even moreso than just being a rage-inducing difficulty hack, Radical Red is an an absolutely massive achievement in rom hacking.
It's a huge experience, with what some may even describe as having the problem of content overload. There is just so much in Radical Red, it's no wonder it's the most popular Pokemon ROM Hack.
But is it actually fun? Even for players like me who want a more casual experience, let's find out.
--
Yes, Radical Red, specifically the version I played for this video, version 4.1 was developed by Soupercell, with help from others and of course, the Complete Fire Red Upgrade.
But even since it's first completed version, Radical Red has been iconic, taking the original Pokemon FireRed and injecting it with the most powerful steroids known to man.
Radical Red, as stated before, is a difficulty hack, sure. Intended to create many levels of high level competitive gameplay in the shell of the GBA Kanto region classic.
But alongside that, there is just so much more.
You ready? Cause this is gonna get insane.
Pokemon from generations 1-9,
Custom, original versions of Pokemon
Fairy Typing,
The physical-special split,
Mega Evolution
Z moves,
Dynamaxing and Raid Battles,
Re-usable TMs and a much improved HM system with shortened animations,
Updated TMs, including moves from generations 1-9,
Almost every important battle item
Updated sprites
Hidden abilities,
EV training gear,
Options to streamline IV and EV training,
Dexnav,
a day and night system,
ability pop-ups in battle,
new move tutors all over the place,
the ability for Pokemon to follow behind you on the overworld,
faster speeds in just about every area you could think of,
field effects,
brand new, original abilities,
Battle style forced to SET, (unless you really wanna keep it as shift)
Boss fights don't allow access to the bag
New buffs for previously less useful Pokemon,
Additional rivals,
Additional story missions,
Additional recurring enemy bosses,
Level caps,
Many available new roaming legendary Pokemon to capture,
an upgraded game corner,
Generation 8 EXP share,
Nature changers in every Pokemon center,
And so many more quality of life improvements as well as notches to overall difficulty.
My God, it's just humongous.
Now as much as I appreciate all these wonderful features, even on the easiest difficulties, Pokeplebians like myself are still gonna be challenged, and the game warns you of that too, saying that it will never be as easy as a vanilla Pokemon playthrough.
So if that's a deal breaker for ya... maybe look elsewhere.
However, even despite that, I still have to say I had a wondrous time with the game.

Which is the Best (Official) Way to Play Super Mario Bros. 2?

Super Mario Bros 2 might not the fan favourite or most fondly remembered of the original Mario Nintendo Entertainment System platformer trilogy, but it is still a pretty fun and worthwhile game to play, despite how brazenly strange it is.

Normally I find that Pokemon fan games and ROM hacks that try to do a lot just might fumble a bit, at least on a thing or two. And who can blame them?

When it comes to Pokemon rom hacks, there are a few that stand out from the crowd for their immense quality, attention to detail, and overall sense of direction.

If you don't know about Pokemon Unbound yet, it's basically a wholly o...

Why Mario Kart: Double Dash!! Remains Unique
Super mario bros advance 4 super mario bros 3 🤦♂️🤦♂️😭 what an absolute scam this was. We played it in the nes, then we played it in the snes in mario all starts then were fed it again on the GBA. I was absolutley sick to the back teeth if it by then and havent touched it since 😭😭😅😅🤣
They’re all the platforming perfection, but I think the GBA wins due to the insane amount of additional content.
@@AndDeathForAll82 Yeah there's no doubt that Advance 4 is LOADED with content.
Bruh wholly moly just found out this and coral rn imma get this rn
@@JohnSmith-se7pp I cannot WAIT til Coral is fully complete. Prism is excellent through and through, those puzzles are just a bit much, but everything else is fantastic
I prefer both the SNES and GBA version of Super Mario Bros. 3... Because I want to play as Luigi and not as a green mario.
@@BriceTerry04 That's fair!
So wheres the .save file?
@@ArcExiOus Gotta find the correct one online, if it didn't come with your download of the patch with the readme and stuff
It’s hard for me to see any other version than the snes one I just grew up with that one
@@PopPunkNerd In my opinion, it doesn't get any better than All Stars!
I'm looking forward to seeing when Pokemon Victory Fire comes out.
@@레돌이 I'm still working through some other ROM hacks first, but Victory Fire is still on the way!
Not for $60. It is on my wish list with other Mario games but I'm not getting any of them if they stay at $60. I may have to look for physical copy on sale or used ones.
@@Cruzan9 Used or on sale is the way to go!
I heard that the All-Stars version of Super Mario Bros 3 has worse hit detection, is this true?
@@paulc2335 Not that I noticed. I also didn't see a lot of research that pointed to that being the case either. But maybe it's right? I'm not sure.
Sold me at larvitar being your starter !!!!
@@safwan5324 Who doesn't love Larvitar?!
GBA version is definitely the definitive one gameplay wise. You literally won't be missing anything by just playing that one instead of the NES or SNES versions in terms of content, but the same isn't true in reverse. NES and SNES are missing the A coins and Yoshi eggs. Honestly though, this is what any remake should strive for, shouldn't it? If it's not aiming to be the definitive version, then what's the point of it existing, lol. SNES was the previous definitive version, due to the fact that you could actually save the game, instead of having to finish it in one sitting like on NES, or leave the console on all night. Now we need a new definitive edition, one that has all the GBA improvements and content, but with higher resolution graphics fit for our modern HD screens, and a higher quality soundtrack :).
@@tamerkoh Right! Saving! I knew I forgot to mention that. And I agree that the GBA has the most content of the lot, making it perhaps the most definitive. Though again, each version has its costs and benefits
@@anotherblowncartridge Each one certainly has historical value =). I doubt most people are gonna play through the game more than once though, since everyone's got a big backlog of games to get through, haha. Due to this, I try to direct people to the most feature complete content rich and polished versions of any game that offer the same content and core gameplay. For example, when it comes to Pokemon, I send friends who want to play Kanto the first time straight to Pokemon FireRed. There's nothing they'll be missing content-wise compared to Red, since all the same maps and puzzles are present, and they can see all the new content in one single playthrough of Kanto. Also the quality of life improvements just make it a no-brainer; the categorized inventory bag alone is a big improvement xD
@@tamerkoh Oh yeah, it's most often best to play the remake over the original to enjoy the quality of life improvements. The new Mario RPG remakes on Switch are another case of this.
GBA - Young players SNES - New players NES - Experienced players
@@YoyPS4 This is an awesome categorization.
Also, I may be one of the... few? very few? that has conquered the original Super Mario Bros. 2 (The Lost Levels), without cheating (save states, rewinding, or any cheat codes like with a Game Genie or any other cheating device). Not to be bragging or anything exactly, but, if I can do it, then ANYONE can. It did take me quite a while, but I just kept at it and was persistent, and yes, "practice makes perfect" as my mom always would tell me.
@@BigHead2615 I'll definitely complete the game at some point, and maybe I'll make a video following up on it! Thanks for the encouragement! 🙏
"Which is the Best (Official) Way to Play Super Mario Bros. 2?", simple, ANY way and version is the best way to (this answer of mine also goes for Super Mario Bros. 3, ANY video game). I love me the classic Famicom and NES versions, but the SNES and GBA ports are ALSO amazing! But heck, I also dig the "first version / skin" of the game which was Yume Kojo: Doki Doki Panic (as long as people learn of, or know that, it DID start development as a "Mario game", as a prototype before being shelved and the japanese Super Mario Bros. 2 aka The Lost Levels was made instead, and later was finished and turned into Doki Doki Panic when Fuji Television wanted a game for the whole Yume Kojo stuff... seriously, research the game's history, I'm not just making this up, GTV Japan did a good, or some good, videos about it), even though to see the true ending of that version requires beating the game with all 4 characters. I actually did it with the first selectable character, I can't remember his name, Imajin? About a month ago or so. I had gotten going again with the "mama" character, but then I left off, and now / these days I'm bouncing between Zelda II: The Adventure Of Link, and Skyrim.
Thank you for introducing me to this hack! Super excited to try it out :)
Happy to be the one introduce you to it!
It’s on a hand held device you can’t expect 100% perfection I don’t see nothing wrong with it it’s just like the one on the PlayStation just on a smaller screen and different controls that’s the only difference
That's totally fair! I just prefer different controls for Splinter Cell than what was in 3D.
I wanna go to kanto again but in a johto remake
Pokemon Liquid Crystal, Pokemon GA Chronicles...? There's options for your request
as a filthy casual this game is scary as hell but it also looks awesome
This game is fire. Ngl. Ive played it here in 2024 now and its awesome. I love it.
Though i dont have it on the switch. Only on the WiiU
My personal favorite Super Mario Bros. 2 version is The GameBoyAdvance!
What makes it your favourite version?
@@anotherblowncartridge It’s because of The ✝️Legendary 🏆Charles🌈 Martinet🏆 for 🎙voicing🎙 ❤️🔥Mario❤️🔥 & 🍀Luigi🍀 in Super Mario Bros. 2 GBA Edition!
@@RaheemTheDream That's true! In all it's GBA audio hardware glory!!
I was a little disappointed you focused on graphics and sound so much; you could have pointed out gameplay changes like adding those 7s to the slot machine or letting you choose your character again after deaths rather than being locked into your first choice until you either beat the level or run out of lives. I actually feel that breaks the flow of the game a little, as it seemed more like the kind of game where you remember how it was to make smarter choices on full replays rather than the modern long game you just bumble through once and then forget about. Though of course, if there's no saving, then they can have limited continues as the ultimate punishment... A lot of the pointless additions on Advance seem to be there just to show off the new GBA's ability to rotate and scale sprites, and it always looked a little ugly to me to do that scaling in the same low resolution that the original graphics were in. Why did the shells have to be scaled up? They don't change size, so they could have just been drawn at that larger size to begin with! And the proliferation of hearts may have been to make up for starting the characters off small, which along with the score system was probably done just to make it more like other Mario games... But this isn't other Mario games! This used to be the GOOD Mario game! And don't act like the second Mouser is a good penultimate boss in a game that used to have 3 Mousers and 2 Triclydes!
I definitely agree that I could have covered more. Advance 1 definitely does have those ugly sprite rotating and scaling effects, but I do feel like sometimes, especially when it's a smoother animation, it can look nice. Thank you for your comment! I always appreciate extensive thoughts and feedback! 🙂
Recently bought a physical cartridge of Radical Red for GBA SP. I did the same with Unbound and Gaia, but I think Radical Red will be the most played. Unbound is awesome tho.
Physicals for Unbound, Gaia, and Radical Red are an awesome investment. Playing these games on original hardware is easily the best way to play them. Unbound especially is just a masterpiece.
Emerald Kaizo review when? 😂
😭😭😭 Please, I don't know if my plebian brain can handle such a task 🙏
As someone who still owns an original copy of each version (1988 japanese Famicom version boxed, a "right bros" NES version CIB as well as a "left bros" loose cart, north american Super Mario All-Stars CIB, and yes, the north american Super Mario Advance 4 CIB), I will honestly say that either the Famicom or NES versions are my preferred and favorites, but there is nothing at all wrong about the All-Stars or Advance versions, and those really are stellar games! I just prefer the originals, yes they're nostalgic, but they're also just charming and a lot of fun to still play now (again, for me anyway).
Having a Japanese boxed copy of SMB3 🤩🤩🤩 That is too cool
As a now retired VGC player, I absolutely love this game. I just finished a playthrough on Hardcore mode and had an absolute blast. This is definitely a game i can not recommend to most of my friends though. Right now I'm wating for the next update for Pokemon Elite Redux. If you are looking for another challenging rom hack, I highly recommend. All Pokemon have 4 abilities active at once, freely change EVs and IVs, access to all tms, move tutor, egg and level up move sets from the start. New regional variants, new custom megas. Honestly more than i can say. It made me have to really think how to build everything perfect.
I've seen a bit of Elite Redux, and it looks CRAZY. Definitely fun for those who really like to optimize their team builds and strategies, but I think I need a more casual Pokemon playthrough to tide me over in between my awful attempts at being good at these competitive Pokemon hacks 😅
Also, what era did you play VGC? Also, what was your team?
@anotherblowncartridge I've dabbled in competitive GSC and a little ADV but what most active in XY and ORAS. Personally I always leaned towards Perish Trap and Rain strategies. Can't remember my exact teams but the last one I remember using in ORAS was in 2016 when Wolfe Glick won worlds. I was also on the Mega Gengar with Primal Kyogre and Mega Rayquaza mind set. Perish Trap when I played was Mega Gengar, Gothitelle, Politoed, Machamp, Arcanine and and I think Hydreigon 🤔 I still play everything with a competitive mind set. I follow the meta with the chance I might get in again but having a kid kinda ended that. I do help my buddy at work practice though so there is that.
The community around this rom hack is huge and always in discussions. Your video is gonna come off like the most casual review to ever casual. 😂
Now you should play the equivalent in Pokemon Emerald or something like Incliment Emerald or Parallel Emerald
There are many like Radical Red, but none come close to it's almost unnecessarily enormous magnitude.
Yea I tried this one awhile back and was not a fan. Just way too much going on in one game. I can see why people far down the rabbit hole of competitive love it but not for me at all.
Like I said, it's definitely fair to describe it as "content overload" 😅
"The benevolent and beautiful organizations that they are." I can almost taste the sarcasm.
is this a multiplayer game or online game? I mean can I play with my friend with one console only?
You can play this locally and online.
Such a shame about this game. So great! wish more people played it.
It did (and still does) have a small competitive scene, but it's so unfortunately forgotten about. I also wish more people still ran it.
@anotherblowncartridge I'm gonna hop back on tonight see what I can find.i absolutely love this game.
4:33 I'm personally conservative and I don't think female character is woke. Purposefully making your characters minorities for no reason except to get news praise is woke. Also, people complaining about video games back then are literally why the ESRB exists lol
Good point about the ESRB lol So what reason does one need to make their character a minority for it not be considered "woke"?
This video is how I realize Nintendo somehow managed to release Mario 2 on all of their streaming emulation services. Nntendo would get this game on the N64 streaming channel if they thought they could get away with it.
I could totally see them remaking the trilogy for the next console. Maybe even in a Wonder-esque style.
I use msu1 mods lets me make the audio better on SNES games
Those music mods are awesome. SNES emulation can go so far to make better experiences.
Super Mario bros 2/lost levels isn't hard I run it once a year
Very nice. It's not easy for me so far, but I will get through it. I try to get through games pretty casually, without doing too much research on the game itself.
I can’t stand the voice acting in the gba games. All Mario advance games suffer from it.
Yeah very understandable. I can't blame anyone for saying they avoid those versions because of it.
They make the games feel more alive to me
@@Sadeness99That's also fair! Especially since we know the characters voices pretty well at this point.
@@anotherblowncartridge they just had to program it to happen periodically is all
@@Sadeness99 Yeah I think if the noises weren't so consistent, it would be better.
Birdo actually was trans, it said so in the original manual
Here's my question: does that description of Birdo being male count, because it's in a dream?
@@anotherblowncartridge Birdo doesn’t exist, Mario dreamed it
@@areaman5959 But we do kinda see Birdo in other games. But I suppose it changes depending on what games you consider canon to the mainline 2D Mario platformer games.
This game was my childhood, i literally just remembered this game like 30 minutes ago, but forgot the name and tried searching for it. Im really hoping for a new remake
Why do you assume birdo is a female just because birdo has a feminine voice, maybe a feminine voice and bow on the head are both signs of masculinity in the birdo species
Damn, you're completely right. I shall now imprison myself for my assumptive crimes. 😔
I like the detail that each color variant of Birdo has a deeper voice than the previous version!
@@BagOfMagicFood That's interesting! I never noticed that! Gotta review my footage and see for myself!
Yes he is trans 🤣
Just as they originally intended 😂
Why do you keep losing energy when you're talking? Sounds like rocks scraping against each other?

They say people are mean to each other online, but luckily there's people like @beewaifu who prove them wrong with their kind words and positive messages. If only everyone could be as compassionate as BeeWaifu
@@anotherblowncartridge I do as the Old Ones designed me to.
@@BeeWaifu The Old Ones made you the most empathetic and kind-hearted being I've potentially ever seen. The rays of kindness emitting off of you are blinding in their magnificence.
@@anotherblowncartridge Yes. I burn whole worlds with my empathy, consuming all in their glorious, glowing grandeur.
The single player mode was borderline awful, after the first half hour they just padded it out, trash mode.
Extremely padded. Really a step down from what came before.
Literally the best Pokémon game on switch. The Pokémon fanbase is cooked for sleeping on this one instead of gobbling down the garbage that gamefreak keeps churning out.
I couldn't agree more. I have mostly skipped the Pokemon games on Switch other than Pokken
Next you gotta do Radical Red
Super Mario Bros. 2 mechanics would later heavily influence the move-set for Princess Peach in the Super Smash Bros. games.
"ADVANCED-SIZE ENEMIES"
Why is being able to play as princess peach "woke"? 🤷♂ Cmon bro don't be that guy.
I'm just saying it would be called that. The new Zelda game that actually has the player character being Zelda was called "woke". Not to mention the new Princess Peach game was called "woke", too. People are just way unnecessarily hypersensitive to female protagonists these days.
The fear around this so-called "wokeism" is very real. People think that seeing a female protagonist in a story these days means that men are now second-class citizens 😂
@@anotherblowncartridge Well I would suggest whatever twitter bubble you're in is inflating the one-off opinions of morons and making them look like a widespread thing. We've had female video game protagonists pretty much since video games were a thing (Samus was in 86' and there were plenty more before her), nobody has ever had a problem with female video game protagonists. Edit: I guess my overall point is, if you want a good way to completely tank your channel, making it political is a good way to go about it. Not only do you piss off the people you're trying to dunk on, you also piss off the rest of us who are exhausted by the 24/7 culture wars stuff.
@@BenWillock I didn't think a one-off quick comment like that would bother people so much. Regardless if the people are morons, it is a widespread thing. This is a new age of brain rot social media politics. That recent Nintendo Direct Livestream comment section, and the comment sections on the Princess Peach: Showtime and Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom videos prove it's much bigger than people would like to admit. I didn't think a quick joke about it would be a big deal, nor do I think it would "tank" my channel. But I appreciate your concerns and comments nonetheless. I'll keep making videos the way I like, and I'll face whatever consequences come from it. I wasn't intending to "dunk on" anyone. Just trying to be a little playful. Apologies.
Felt like a joke to me
NES has a charm that cannot be denied.
