Nice vid! I see you have the potentials of doing the analysis and retrospective of a game series, keep up the good work my guy !

I think if Legendary Axe would have been the pack in game rather than Keith Courage the Turbogeafx would have been more successful in the U.S.

I didn’t even realise you didn’t have under 100k subs😂

great vid, i love the retrospective and analysis combo and you don't have any fluff in your vids; only the important stuff is discussed. nicely done.

One of the best films ever. Holographic projection, monorail, flat screen, a moon shot. So old that some actors weren't used to talking movies and were very theatrical. A definite classic. In the film, a side effect of the poison gas was the Wandering Sickness. The first zombie movie?

Make The A-Team great again

So people here are commenting that the legendary axe is the original Japanese title, but the actual original Japanese title is Makyo Densetsu (Demon Legend) with “The Legendary Axe” as the English SUBTITLE. The next game is Ankoku Densetsu (aka Dark Legend). They definitely are sequels, though you can tell the difference in developer right away. I always get the feeling that Victor wanted this series to be akin to Final Fantasy and be vastly different aesthetically and story wise from entry to entry. But then JVC stopped the series by the second game, and haven’t touched it since. The English localizers probably realized how much they painted themselves in a corner relying on that “Legendary Axe” subtitle as the main one when the next game didn’t at all use the Legendary axe title at all.

Legendary Axe 2 is so underrated

I love the nes version. It was the very first nes game i played.

That was a pretty great video! Hope it will get more views, you deserve it!

Legendary Axe was always my favorite game on the Turbo, even though I could never pass stage 4 as a kid. I just got an Analogue Duo a couple weeks ago and I was determined to beat this game. I finally did and I think I've gone back and beat it 5 more times this past week. I have Legendary Axe 2 as well, but I always though it was inferior in every way (which makes sense since it's a completely different game and developer).

Dude Cobra is a good movie. Solid all around. Brian Thompson killed it. Gonna ask you to take it back.

I love the music from the C64 version of the game.

Cobra was a shitty movie from Cannon Films. So was Sly's over-the-top movie.

Love this movie

the Movie is epic. seen the movie when it first hit theaters. 80s classic.

Only just discovered this channel, great videos! Hope your sub numbers and viewer count will increase cause more people should watch these.

Please tell me you're joking when you say.. Lesser remembered?

Legendary Axe 1 actually was on the turbo graphics virtual console on the wii for a while. It got removed for whatever reason. I had the original game as a kid and my brother and I were fascinated with it. My Uncle had LA2 and we played it a good amount. We were like 4 years old so as fascinating as those games were, they were also TERRIFYING. Especially the second game. I remember another uncle used to stay up at night and play turbo graphics with us in the summer time. He got to the final boss in the first game. My brother and I called the final boss "pizza feet" because of the way his feet looked and the way they kinda jiggled around as he moved lmao

By Crom, this is a mighty video indeed!

Even with only 1% matches and have 1000 comparisons: You still have 10 matches you can list. (that's the mathematical magic behind that) List all the non matching comparisions: The Lightning can't use the force, doesn't have a sword and don't shoke his subordinates. And Darth Vader don't look like a Mandalorian.

Every artist is inspired by other artists

Not disagreeing or disputing this. Statistically that awesome 1-in-a-million idea you have 💡 was shared by 8000 other people in our population of 8 billion

The inspiration for Vader (and C3PO and R2-D2) came from the Kurosawa film "The Hidden Fortress" and not The Fighting Devil Dogs.

I like arcade version, beat it about 10 times)

Actually, there is a third game... somewhat) As some people already mentioned, LA2 is not a true sequel. Developer for the first one, Aicom, after doing it, started making another similar game for different publisher. Aicom was a small developer studio, and they did that a couple of times - make one game for one publisher, and then make similar for another. Like Megumi Resque (Master System) - Flying Hero (Famicom), Hoops - All-Pro Basketball (both on NES) and Legandary Axe. The "sequel" you are looking for called Astyanax, but not the NES version. Aicom made Arcade game first. That is the one you want)

That game was bonkers, mate.

Nice touch with the Airwolf theme 😄

Anyone emulate that Tiger lcd game yet?

Not seen it. Worth watching?

I had this game and wanted to like it. However, it was too difficult and the axe wasnt that legendary. I preferred Keith Courage.

...and one of the BEST movies EVER made.

You are right. Legendary Axe II is not actually a sequel to the first game. The localization team just retitled Ankoku Densetsu (Dark Legend) to Legendary Axe II because of the success of the first game. To avoid the lightning strikes in level 6, just make sure that you aren’t near the lightning rods shortly after the screen flashes. You’ll never get hit if you are standing between them.

For as bad as the original game looks, I'll say the graphics are kind of impressive for ZX Spectrum/C64.

The cinematography is crazy. That shot of a man looking up at a skyscraper is one of my all time favourite movie shots. I have never seen the movie, but i should probably give it a go

I’m here after sega power surge

Oh snap, he explaining the Heathcliff lore, I appreciate thay

Would surely give it a chance

Golden Axe > legendary Axe

2010 was and still is one of my absolute favorites. It’s not 2001 at all. It’s its own and way better.

One of my favorite films. 😊

You're right, it should be the Meat Robot, or, at the very least, the Garbage Ape, teaching children how to spell. Not Jimmy, though. Seriously, screw that frog.

Dark mustard 😂

They should do one for pc and consoles

Highlander is the ultimate classic

You do know high lander movie is been done by the director of John wick and starring Henry cavill

Legit didn’t know about ANY of these except the unreleased 2600 game. Maybe one day, we’ll see a new interpretation of The A-Team again - perhaps they should return to TV? Also, I LOL’d at the 5:33 gag. Holy crap… and that big laugh makes the bizarre gameplay (shoot the heroes???) seem even funnier.

Really dug this. Great deep dive. Often considered playing those 2002 and 2007 games….. maybe I still should.

Great video! So the only evidence I can give you about Legendary Axe 2 NOT being a Legendary Axe game is that in Japan Legendary Axe 1 is titled Legendary Axe, while the 'sequel' has a completely different title. So yeah I'd say they just changed the title in the States to help the Turbo sell

Highlander is my favourite film. I remember going to a Highlander convention in Leeds and a guy from Eidos was promoting the game that was eventually cancelled. What a shame.
