- Clickbait title: THE WORST VIDEO GAME EVER!? [gone wild] [prank][TWIST ENDING] Frozen Elsa Spider-Man
This video would not have been possible without the generosity and help of Nathan, who was able to send me both a PAL PlayStation 2 and not one but two copies of An American Tail, and then didn't freak out when I decided to open the PS2 and swap the power supply with a North American PS2 so I wouldn't need to use a voltage converter. It worked just fine because all PS2 motherboards use +12 v DC power to minimize the cost difference between regions.

So what you're saying is that the ideal video game interpretation of An American Tail would be "Papers, Please".
Wow I was so engrossed in that debriefing of the movie....And then you go "and then it was made into one of the worst video games ever." lol way to hook us in.
You know when you momentarily forget what you're drinking, so like you go to take a sip of tea thinking it's soda, and when it hits your tongue, for just a moment it's the weirdest thing you've ever tasted?
Okay so when do we get the 4 hour extended cut of that intro? cause Im all hot and bothered for some way too deep analysis into An American Tale....
Man the third fifty shades went in a really different direction.
I absolutely broke down when you mentioned that Assassin's Creed came out a few months before this did
The absence of games like this is why, I think, the PlayStation Classic cannot recapture the essence of owning that system at the time. Having a bunch of trash or obscure nonsense, perhaps received as gifts from well meaning relatives, was such an important part of the experience.
This video is so good, you don't even notice the transition from discussing revisionism of 18th century racism to instructions on how to clean your PS2.
"I believe in the value of failed art" maybe the nicest thing anyone has ever said about me.
I sincerely hope someone's around in twenty years time to bang out shovelware based on the Fifty Shades trilogy
American Tail Any% World Record Progression
Wow, when you said "pirate ship" I thought it was just a generic term for a ship in a video game. But nope, it's flying the Jolly Roger.
What a lovecraftian nightmare for the pigeon level. You might fight the heat death of the universe as assets load, but those frail, insignificant symbols of man's hubris will only slow you down....
An American Tail, not available in America
I saw An American Tail as an adult. The "There Are No Cats in America" song broke my heart at the time and continues to every time I sing it.
Can't wait for your speedrun at a GDQ for this gem
As soon as you said Data Design Interactive I instinctively let out a big "Oh no"
I love how it ends with “MAYBE you can finally enjoy life ” they won’t even let you have the satisfaction of ending the game. The game developers are keeping you on the edge of your seat forever.
In the short essay, I would like to add that the sequel hammered in the 'realities' by having Fivel and his family realizing that New York is a complete shit-hole and they are living in possibly WORSE conditions then they did in Russia, just without the massive raiding and Cossacks. One of the biggest statements from Fivel Goes West is said by Papa when he talks about how in Russia he was making wonderful money not just as a musician but by selling his violins yet in New York he can't do anything with the talent he has.
I love the way Folding Ideas will go from a massive, semi-serious (but still hilarious) deconstruction of Fifty Shades of Grey's use of cinematography to "let's make fun of this terrible video game I found".
