Mega Man: Dr. Wily's Revenge (1991) Review
Man your content is really good, I look forward to your uploads. You deserve more recognition bro :]
Thank you for the kind words! It’s awesome people like you that make this fun.
I dream of a remaster of this game
I wouldn’t be shocked if there is one some day.
2:19 for being touted as the best selling home console it is really telling that not many of the exclusive sales number get over 20 million sales, TLOU 2 sell 10 million and Gow Ragnarok sell 15 mil, Spiderman 2 11 mil, horizon forbidden west sell 8.4 copy. this console sell over 60 million unit so where is half of the userbase? still on scalper storage? and all of these game are on or coming to pc too like don't get me wrong over 10 million copy is a lot but it still doesn't reach half of the sold ps5. and most of ps5 exclusive cost well over 100 million dollars to make.
I wonder if someone made a petition to put this game on the Switch.
Not sure The Pokémon Company pays much attention to petitions lol, but I think there’s a decent market for this, so maybe they’ll listen to that.
@@HydratedGaming Okay.
You shouldn't love PlayStation, they clearly don't care about any fan, you see their greed, realize it, I realized it with Nintendo, so can you with Sony
Sounds like you are part of the problem. Should have just built a PC after Sony killed all of their IPs during the PS4 era
Damnnn not even TWO games per year??? That's so hilariously sad omg I was wondering if I made the right choice by choosing PC and Yeah, pretty much (´；ω；｀)
It pains me to say this console generation is probably a lost cause at this point, we’re 4 years in and not much has happened, but I’m still hoping they change direction for the future. They just need to make some cheaper medium sized games to go along with their big blockbusters. Astrobot is a good start.
Nice video! Thank you for sharing this piece of knowledge :D
Thank you for watching! I appreciate it!
Thank you! Very interesting fact. I wonder if the developers had already localized the game, but didn't publish it during the NES era
I think another commenter @ClassicSonicSatAm mentioned how this game maybe didn’t even need to be translated from the famicom game. It’s interesting Bubbles is called “Groopy” in it, which is her Japanese name.
Still don't get why Nintendo keep re releasing the nes version without the factory level instead of the full/improved version they had on Wii and 3DS, tho Game Boy DK is the best one.
I agree. I haven’t played all the way through the gameboy one yet as my game battery died halfway through, but it’s one I plan to look at closer.
Can only guess they included it as it's one of the few famicom disk games that doesn't need any language translating, do prefer the disk version it's one my favourites on animal crossing
The language thing would make sense. I was so excited when I found out there was another version of Clu Clu Land on AC. Found out about it on a wiki though, never heard anyone talk about it on UA-cam surprisingly.
MySims™: Cozy Bundle has both MySims and MySims Kingdom for the nintendo switch
great vid as always! love your humor and the stories with your wife are so sweet. highly underrated content man
Thank you so much for the kind words. Also great profile pic. Ness is best.
you're very welcome!! haha ty he's my fav too :)
They should put it on switch for real. One of my favorite games as a kid
I could see it happening tbh. Lots of Wii games are coming over lately.
Absolutely banger game, Needs to be Switch with another Sequel or reboot!
It would be cool to see them expand upon this gameplay style. I'd also hope for a hard mode, but that will never happen.
This was a pretty good game, but the sequal took all the good things from this game, and added even more, it was phenomenal. More and different mini games, 4 characters to choose from with different abilities.. So good.
I'm curious to see how the 4 characters work. That's a cool idea. I'll have to look at that game too sometime. That sounds very interesting.
I remember for like my 11th birthday getting both this game and its sequel and absolutely adoring them! There’s a super special place in my heart for them, and recently got to replay them on my Wii U. Cool vid, loved your take on it :)
Thank you very much for watching! I think it's a truly great game for a more inexperienced audience. Glad games like this exist.
When I was 9 and absolutely obsessed with pokémon, this game and its sequel were wonderful experiences. Loved the video!
Thank you so much for watching!
Ultimate NES Remix was the version I played, the only thing exclusive to it is Speed Mario Bros. which is just Super Mario Bros. but played at 2x Speed, which to my knowledge wasnt a Remix effect in the actual games
I don’t think that effect was in the Wii U version, which is weird because you’d think that would be an easy one for them to do to a lot of the games. Thank you for catching that.
How do you only have 71 subscribers?! You genuinely have such a great style in your presentation, analysis, and comments on your subjects. Please take my subscription
Tbh when I started I never even thought 7 people would watch these, so 71 is awesome to me. Thank you for those extremely kind words. Amazing people like yourself make this so fun to do.
Your videos are good bro
Thank you for the kind words brother
Cool video :D I had a Crayola CD-ROM game as a kid, it was pretty OK but far from my favorite. Your drawings are better than the game's art, I really liked them.
Thank you so much for watching and for the kind words. I really appreciate it. And I was surprised how many games they’ve made! I’d imagine the PC games focused on actual coloring? I had PC creativity coloring book type games as a kid and I loved them.
your underrated asf remember me when your famous
I will never forget you. Thank you for the kind words.
I’ll just keep replaying EO2 every couple of years then 😔
just wanna say you explaining the sims timeline like spin offs was hilarious. also if you enjoy this version i actually do think you should try the pc one. it runs way better. i am used to the controls and i dont think they are bad at all, and there are pc exclusive sims and an entire garden you can play in with new essences thats not on console. its worth trying
I will keep an eye on it for a sale then. Does it work ok with modern PCs or do I have to mess with it a bit? I know the sims 1 and 2 don’t play well with newer PCs and versions of windows.
@@HydratedGaming yeah the older sims games run horrible on modern computers, but honestly i don't remember doing anything extra to get mysims working, just bought it from ea's app. also i wanted to add the garden was used for online stuff before, i guess you and your friends could visit each others gardens and exchange essences, there was 9 buildings you guys can deco together, there was a chat bar and unique emotes. honestly a wonderful idea but the online functionality is long gone. you can still visit your own garden tho, i use mine for storage lol.
why did they put an orange slice on a glass of carton orange juice?? did they not have the whole orange to make the juice?? 0/10
Just finished playing EO2 for the first time since childhood. So underrated and a must-play for anyone interested in the ocean.
Thank you for watching & your profile and username are amazing. I am going to go watch Band Geeks now.
I've never played the first two Endless Ocean games, so I appreciate the history lesson! It kind of makes this game seem even more disappointing to me, like it's the Paper Mario: Sticker Star of the Endless Ocean franchise... Great job on the review, and keep up the good work!
Thank you for watching! And that is a great comparison. If you have a Wii, I do recommend the 2nd game: Endless Ocean Blue Word / Adventures of the Deep depending on your region.
👻 Oooooh! I’m the ghost of money you wasted on Endless Ocean Luminous! (Seriously, wouldn’t it be great if Rerez reviewed this game?)
Seems like a fun game to play with my wife and son, will definitely pick this one up 🔥
Yes it is, and the second one (Blue World) expands on it with more bodies of water to explore, from the artic to even a river. The recent entry on the other hand is a disappointment, exclusively multiplayer focused, with only one body of water that is randomly generated. I'm considering selling my switch cause the modern titles really don't hold up in care compared to their older counterparts.
That’s a good point I wish I would have mentioned about not having different bodies of water. That was one of the coolest aspects of Blue World. This new map doesn’t feel like a real place in the world. Regarding Switch Games, I’d say they seem to be either really fantastic or meh. Mario, Zelda, Kirby, and Smash I think knocked it out of the park this Gen. Pokémon, Yoshi, DK, Mario Sports, Mario Maker, and Wii Sports were kind of disappointing. (and I’d add Animal Crossing and Mario Kart to the disappointing list but I believe that may be a hot take).
Yesn't. They should have adedd more animations to mammals and marine reptiles ("dinosaurs") that would make them more different than fishes and sharks. Like they would interact with eachother and seem like they are actually smart. You could also go out to the surface and take pictures of them jumping along other sea birds.
Yeah any sort of behaviors would be welcome. The world needs to feel more alive.
Were marine reptiles actually smart or social though?
I bought a game key on eBay for 1.50€. I'm glad I didn't pay more. The multiplayer is fun, but the game lacks a proper story and a lot of other features compared to Blue World.
Yup. That pretty much sums it up. I hope some day there’s a more traditional entry. I’d love to see an evolution of blue world.
One of my top 5 favorite games fr fr
The Wii’s library is fantastic. So many hidden gems like this.
Couldn't agree more on the point of it not being a good sequel. I think if it wasn't branded as an EO game the reception would've been different. It'd be nice if they ported Blue World though. Great review, I've enjoyed your EO stuff and hope to see other content and reviews from you :)
Thank you so much for watching. Yeah I agree with you. They should have named it something else because I don’t think this is what people had in mind for the next EO game.
I love all the endless ocean Games Specifically blue world the most but luminous just doesn’t hit like the originals
I agree. The older ones feel like more love went into their development. I didn’t play any of the games until this year, so i don’t think it’s just nostalgia when people are saying this.
Yes spot on about the story mode,I am not online but the solo mode is ok even though I feel like I am going around in circles in places.
Hell yeah good video. What other Wii games do you have in mind to make a review of? Might I suggest World of Goo? Its also getting a second game even if you havent played the first one its pretty damn good.
Thank you very much! World of Goo apparently got ported to switch a few years ago, so based on your recommendation I’ve added it to my list to try to track down a physical copy. If I find one, I’ll make a video. If you have any other recommendations, I am certainly open to suggestions!
I literally just found out about the Endless Ocean franchise today, and as someone who loves to be in the water, I was immediately drawn to the long overdue addition of an air and depth meter. I assume the depth meter is in meters because the diver's icon turns yellow between the 30 and 45 markings. That is no coincidence: 40 meters (~130 feet) is the safe depth limit for recreational scuba diving, and 20 meters (~65 feet) is where you earn your basic open water certification.
I know nothing about diving, so that’s a cool detail I would have never picked up on, thank you for pointing that out! and assuming they did that on purpose, it’s pretty cool that the developers did their homework on that. You can tell this game was made by people who really like the art of diving.
@HydratedGaming Indeed! I noticed in Subnautica that the depth meter does one better on this one by actually giving a numerical readout of how deep you're diving. I forgot to add this in my previous comment, but I'm not sure if there is a way to set the depth meter to feet. Not that I would want to try; Japan uses the metric system anyway, which is extremely linear.
Luminous sucks compared to this masterpiece ! It's sad that luminous will be the first endless ocean game to a lot of people, it could have been so much more. I'm scared people will think "that's endless ocean ? Damn it's bad, not worth playing the other games" and crash the licence's popularity. I really hope luminous wonnt be the last endless ocean game ever
Obviously you never know, but I don’t think it’ll be the last game. Arika has been making these diving games since 2001, and they don’t really have any other big franchises (go check out their Wikipedia page, what a weird list of games developed). So I’m hopeful someday the Blue World fans will get the game they want.
Definitely need a review on luminous
It’s on the way!
Heres hoping we get another endless ocean game after luminous, espicially since it sold well enough to make the top ten first week in europe
Genuinely one of the best games I've ever played. I'm so upset Luminous regressed. 😭
Based on fan response (I just got Luminous the other day and haven’t played it yet) they should have just ported or remastered this game instead.
I’m glad you liked the game! I spent hours playing this game as a kid, it was one of my favorites growing up. I loved the story and characters even though they were a bit campy, I loved collecting treasure and finding mythical species. I was really excited for the new game, but it doesn’t even feel like an endless ocean game… Curious to hear your thoughts if/when you get around to it. But I think I’ll just go back to playing this game instead
I just got it the other day, so I need some time to go through it yet, but based on what all the fans are saying, I don’t have high hopes. I hope some day the fans get the sequel they deserve. I just don’t know why they didn’t just port or remaster Blue World at this point. I could barely find a physical copy of this game, which tells me I think they knew sales weren’t going to be great.
Can you make a video covering the new Endless Ocean game?
I am planning on doing so, but I just got it the other day. It was hard to find a physical copy for some reason.
This was such an amazing thing what a gem Sadly the new one is nowhere near as in depth as this one is and is incredibly stripped back instead. Feels more like a $50 tech demo for now incredibly outdated hardware
That’s sad to hear. I feel bad for the fans who have waited so long for a new one. I hope they still can find some enjoyment in it.
Awesome video! I wonder if you have seen the gameplay and reviews for Luminous, though? It cuts almost EVERYTHING from Endless Ocean 2.
I’ve seen the reviews. It almost sounds like a sequel to Endless Ocean 1 instead of 2. I’ll probably still get it to see for myself, but it doesn’t sound like I’ll like it as much as this game. Curious to see what fans of the series think though.
I spent so many hours in this game as a kid. If you would have asked me, I would have told you it was my favorite game.
I wish I would have known about the series when I was younger because I would have loved it too. If you haven’t checked out the sequel too you totally should. Endless Ocean Blue World, also on the Wii & still a very cheap buy if you have a Wii around.
This game is absolutely beautiful. It is a staple in my childhood. I hope it becomes more popular.
I hope so too. It’s a great game that deserves to be played. I’m sad I missed this one back in the day. Hopefully the new game revitalizes the series.
Nice video 👍
Thank you very much jank.
