Could you imagine a horror game playing as 'lil Gizmo trying to survive the night against a horde of gremlins? Afterall, despite its charm & humor Gremlins did start as a horror movie.
6:45 Yeah, Sunsoft had an EXCELLENT sound\music team around this time. All their games had fantastic soundtracks, but they tend to be overlooked when people talk about great NES and Gameboy music.
Naoki Kodaka was the name of the man who did the music for a lot of Sunsoft's game's back in the day, such as Gremlins 2, Blaster Master, Batman, Fester's Quest, and Journey to Silius. He definitely knew how to make the NES sound better than it ever did.
Imagine a mobile gremlins game like FNAF special delivery but you only have Gizmo, can give him different weapons, accessories to wear, and skins. You fight gremlins trying to approach you and hit them with a flaming arrow like in Gremlins 2 to set them up blazing and melting to win, but they come in different waves each encounter depending on specific conditions
I remember seeing this movie when it came out. The theaters back then were totally different, they had a red curtain that closed halfway through the movie so people can go out and smoke lol👍
Gremlins 2 for the NES is one of the more accurate movie adaptations on the console. I love how many references from the movie the team behind the game slipped in, such as when you're in the TV Studio stage, you walk through the sets for the microwave cooking show and the late night horror show from the movie. And as mentioned in the video, a number of the monsters from the movie appear throughout the game. It's kind of amazing that a movie like Gremlins 2, which had very little plot, got such an accurate game, whereas a movie like Batman (which got an NES game from the same publisher Sunsoft) got a game that is awesome, but doesn't really follow the movie that well.
Ok while we can all agree the nes game is the pinnacle of gremlins games, what was the art at 11:20 from and does anyone know more about the mobile and fan games that were mentioned.
Thats because DIe Hard is not a Christmas movie....Being a movie that happens to be set around Christmas, does not make it a Christmas movie....They're having a party for a deal that was closed that day, not a Christmas party...Unlike Gremlins where Gizmo is purchased and given as a Christmas present
@@lutherheggs451 but Die Hard has more Christmas songs than the movie White Christmas with Bing Crosby. And you could argue that Hans gave John and Holly the greatest Christmas gift of all, the gift of family.
one thing totally baffles me... why has warner not done a sequel/reboot of this franchise recently ??? with today's cgi the possibilities are endless and would be really cool as well.
Gremlin's, Goonies , Ghost Busters, Willow, Labyrinth, The Dark Crystal, Star Wars, Freddy, Jason, TSMC, and practical effects generating enthusiasm ruled the day. Imagination was a projection onto games rather than a flashy graphics based mental ideology. We loved what we had because we imagined ourselves in that role.
I remember when I had to sell a bunch of games when I was short on cash, GameStop didn’t even recognize the gizmo game in its system, so I’m glad I actually kept it
In regards to the original movie, The final product is a great movie, but can be improved by reincluding the deleted scenes present on the DVD release; some vital plotline information would once again be present. Did you know that Mrs. Fleagle and the Bank Presidant were PERPOSELY FORCING people into bankruptcy so _They_ could buy all the land and sell it for industrail use? The gremlins literally SAVED Kingston Falls; The sequal actually SHOWS it's version of this (Gremlins infestation leads to better future for everyone).
Remember playing through gremlins 2 on the NES over 30 years ago,it was a good game at the time when I was about 11.I haven't played the game since that I can remember.
I think that we need a modern console port/remaster for gremlins 2 for the nes where for a feature you can choose two styles. one where it has the original graphics being 8 bit and the other being of course, a HD style where it would have the same graphics like new super mario switch
The OG Gameboy Gremlins game was like... probs the third game next to Link's Awakening and Robocop 3 I ever owned and I had that shit perfected. Gonna grab a rom and relieve some good (and fustrating) memories.
I played Gremlins unleashed and stripe vs. Gizmo all the time in 03 as a kid. I loved the Gremlins and watched them all the time. I wished I lived in the 80s in 03 to have experienced the gremliness but 03 was pretty close in retrospect. Hope Zach Galligan will be in the series or in the 3rd one. His career never passed from Gremlins, don't know why, it's a shame.
That would be dope as hell if they put the Gremlins on Injustice 3 video game That will Be something new to see 👀🧠fighters like the Ninja turtles on Injustice 2 thinking about it we do play us a gremlin on Injustice 3 or put the new DLC pack for Injustice 2 for the Gremlins of Ninja turtles
Gremlins Diehard Batman Returns and Shazam are Christmas movies. Gremlins has great Xmas music and snow and Gizmo is a gift ..... Shazam more so it's really about family and the family you are given more than born into and giving to that family.
Neither Die Hard or Shazam are Christmas movies.....Die Hard is an action film that happens to be set in December, its has nothing to do with the story..He's there to see his wife whom he is separated from and the company happens to be having a party to celebrate a deal that they just closed. Shazam has nothing to do with Christmas, its winter, being set in winter, Christmas isn't mentioned, the story has nothing to do with Christmas and neither does the family thing you mentioned. Gremlins and Batman Returns are literally set at Christmas, Christmas/holidays are actually mentioned, they actually have something to do with the plot, its not they just happen to be set in the winter time.
You don't want Gremlins as Fornite or any "online all the time" games for sure! When their servers go down you'll never be able to play them again. Always preserve gaming by making physical games like Nintendo does with Switch.👍
12:24 Imagine a Gremlins FPS where you play Gizmo in Rambo mode shooting gremlins with flaming arrows! }:-D Because of his size, it would be almost like those "Rats" maps from Half-Life: Opposing Force deathmatch.
Thank you, I was considering buying Gremlins 2 for the NES, and your video let me know it's not the type of game I enjoy. (pit falls always made me insanely angry as a kid)
It's so hard to time the jumps when you are bouncing on the springs. I remember a lot of times ending up falling into the abyss instead of making the jump because of it.
Paralyzed nation Sick and depressed Gotta keep myself together Gotta take a deep breath All because There may never be A Gremlins 3 So tell me where did the Gremlins go It's been so long with nothing to show We could have had Gremlins versus Home Alone Or at least a cameo in Attack of the Clones There should have been a gremlin in Jurassic Park Or a Jaws-like movie with a Gremlin shark Thirty years later we'rе all stuck at home Crying in our sleep, wondering wherе did the Gremlins go It's a travesty that they've robbed us of history We could have had Gremlins 4, Gremlins 5 Instead we got fourteen Land Before Times I close my eyes and Gremlins are all that I see We could have had Gremlins 6, and Gremlins 7 So tell me where did the Gremlins go? It's been so long With nothing to show Imagine there's a film where Gizmo becomes a Gremlin Who teaches the other Gremlins about democracy and philosophy They develop a country They name it "Gremlin Nation" They ban all immigration They have genocidal tendencies Gizmo isn't into it Also, he has a kid With a human woman Played by Jennifer Aniston We can call it Gremlins 3 There should have been a gremlin in Jurassic Park Or a Jaws-like movie with a Gremlin shark Thirty years later we're all stuck at home Crying in our sleep, wondering where did the Gremlins go Woah Woah Joe Dante Where did the Gremlins go? Woah Woah Howie Mandel Where did the Gremlins go? Woah Steven Spielberg
I remember a comment someone made about the Atari 2600 Gremlins game; "they should've skipped the Kaboom! clone and developed the shooting stage further". Does anyone here agree with that idea?
Die Hard isn't a Christmas movie, it just happens to take place on Christmas. But Gremlins is about the actual Christmas gift, it is totally a Christmas movie. I like the second Gremlins a bit more because they doubled down on the zany, but it is not a Christmas movie. The NES game had great music and looked good for the time, but was "NES hard"
We are out of ideas... LEGO: you can do the game/movie with our stuff - Woow, Brilliant! No ONE did this before! Let s make some money! XDD Bff why?? >
Gremlins 2 was the first time I was really disappointed by a sequel, it was so bad and as I hated the loony toons it was not the direction where I wanted it to go.
Gremlins actually lost the lawsuit against ghoulies! I think it was due to the fact that the movie was thought and made before just before gremlins was made.
@@edgardeitz2784 An awesome b-rated horror movie that came out in 1985. It's about about a bunch a of a little demons (aka ghoulies) that are summoned from toilets and cause all sorts of mischief! It's about 4 films long. And gets funnier after each one! It was made and produced by the incredible "Full Moon Studio's"!
A gremlins action platformer game would be great where you play as gizmo and spike and wall running you better be able to wall run like in Jedi fallen order
Gremlins fighting game like plants vs zombies garden warfare (it'll be Mogwai vs gremlins) or a kart racing game with gremlins 1&2 Mogwai & gremlins characters
I swear I had the gremlins gizmo and was so stressed out I couldn't figure out how to proceed in the "story" it's good to know now that I wasted my money Yeats ago :/
It's not a Christmas movie unless it's about Christmas. Santa Clause is a Christmas movie. Krampus is a Christmas movie. Die Hard and Gremlins, as good as they are, are merely movies that take place around Christmas. Glad I was here to clear that ridiculous nonsense up.

I never knew they had games based on the movie 🎬
it's actually the best gremlins game, and it's also one the best game in NES
I LOVED the ice cubes dropping from the fridge and making little puddles for the Mogwais to walk into.
Ok while we can all agree the nes game is the pinnacle of gremlins games, what was the art at 11:20 from and does anyone know more about the mobile and fan games that were mentioned.
Sunsoft always makes fun and awesome and challenging games. Gremlins 2 was great. Merry Christmas brother from CT
For an American youtuber pronouncing ZX spectrum correctly you deserve some sort of formal recognition 😉 👍👍👍
We had the Atari 5200 version on the 800xl when growing up, it was a class game!!

4:38 - Gremlins (1986) I have played on my Atari 800XL computer, so Atari also had ported that to their 8-bit home computers as well.
Remember playing through gremlins 2 on the NES over 30 years ago,it was a good game at the time when I was about 11.I haven't played the game since that I can remember.
most excellent content JoBlo Horror Originals. I broke the thumbs up on your video. Keep on up the wonderful work.
I didn't even know GREMLINS even
Had video games.
Gremlins 2 for the nes has some of the best music i have ever heard on the nes who ever composed this is a genius :)
A look at the history of Ghostbusters games would be great.
Never in my life have I ever wanted to see a gremlin with a Uzi 9M
My favorite Gremlins game? Creating Stripe in Skyrim as an Argonian.
I think that we need a modern console port/remaster for gremlins 2 for the nes where for a feature you can choose two styles. one where it has the original graphics being 8 bit and the other being of course, a HD style where it would have the same graphics like new super mario switch
Great work with the research, presentation and gameplay

Let's have Gizmo and Grogu share a parody video game where they team up in a Star Wars/Gremlins combo.
I had the 5200 and NES Games for years then picked up all the Gameboy ones. And the goofy DS one. The way his eyes blink in that game creeps me out
The OG Gameboy Gremlins game was like... probs the third game next to Link's Awakening and Robocop 3 I ever owned and I had that shit perfected.
Gonna grab a rom and relieve some good (and fustrating) memories.

What was that gremlins homebrew game? I can't find it!
Gremlins 2 for the NES looks a lot like New Ghostbusters 2 for the NES. That was a great game.
I WANT THE DANTE CUT!
i had gremlins 2 on gameboy but it was difficult for me and i never finished it !
Ghostbusters 2 & Gremlins 2 were both more cultural victory laps rather than sequels.
They're awesome movies.
Lethal Weapon is also a Christmas movie.
Yes!
I honestly thought the stripe vs gizmo game for the gameboy wasn’t terrible. I still play it every now and then to this day ❤😂
That would be dope as hell if they put the Gremlins on Injustice 3 video game That will Be something new to see 👀🧠fighters like the Ninja turtles on Injustice 2 thinking about it we do play us a gremlin on Injustice 3 or put the new DLC pack for Injustice 2 for the Gremlins of Ninja turtles

Gremlins 2 on the Amiga is my favourite game based off the movie. It could be really fun but sluggish in areas.

Always preserve gaming by making physical games like Nintendo does with Switch.👍
Gremlins 2 was an awesome sequel and game. I wasn't old enough to see the first film at the cinema but was with the sequel. Fun in any case.
I agree; Gremlins 2 was _far_ better...

Batman Returns is also a Christmas movie!
Gremlins2 for the Amiga is better than the pc🤘🏻
only game that plays the theme tune as main bgm
Gremlins 1984 pc game, was the first pc game i bought, it was a floppy disc at that time
I remember getting very far on the NES Gremlins 2 game.
My first thought was, "all ONE of them?" but this is pleasantly surprising.
The Gameboy version is insanely hard, and it only has 4 levels. Legit haven't been able to beat it for about 20 years
It's so hard to time the jumps when you are bouncing on the springs. I remember a lot of times ending up falling into the abyss instead of making the jump because of it.

Hi Gamechaser Billy!
Since their making the WB multiverse game I think gizmo is perfect to be in this game
