"At last.I get to wrap my fingers around your puny little neck."
...What neck?
Lmfao exactly
The words from Caddicarus clearly state it.
Um... excuse me, sir, have you even seen Crash? He's fooking hench! He's so hench he doesn't even have a neck he's just a walking face with arms XD
@@matthewgillis6366 Truly one of the greatest wordsmiths of our time.
@@acemcwolf5445
Indeed XD
I think he mean his.. private area
Crunch is all well and good, but I'm honestly holding out for Nina Cortex being included in CTR.
Crash's Underwear you and me both mate
Adam I ain’t askin for the girl to be on the main roster, hopefully dlc 🤞🏽
@@Merasmus1997 So you would rather have people pay for a character, rather than it being in the game already for people who want her? I never understood this mindset. I think all the PS1/PS2 Crash characters are fine, except the Titans games and a few weirdos from Tag Team Racing like Von Clutch who really don't fit in the universe.
With that said, Nina, Rilla Roo and Passadena will most likely be in the game.
JKL That’s not what I’m saying at all. I am only hoping that the character I want gets in Despite either she’s in as an unlockable racer(which I’m really crossing my fingers for) or as dlc. I’m cool with either option mate
You know what’s crazy is that I saw online not too long ago the fucking umbrella girls are gonna be racers lol
Crunch is basically the Knuckles of the Crash series. Not entirely the same obviously but you have to admit, they do have similarities.
• Antagonist turned good.
• Mostly brawn, not brain.
Etc etc.
Crunch and Knuckles have alot of similarities, one thing I can list is they were badass, however that trait went unused as more characters came along. So they were flanderized into what we know them now, a dumb joke.
With a little bit of shadow, cuz he was made by the big bad(eggman and cortex)
@@user-ul7cw8ww1d Except it was Eggman's grandfather who created Shadow.
@@user-in1gv1uh2v still the same concept tho
@@user-ul7cw8ww1d True.
Video: who is crunch bandicoot
Me: he's the best
Yes
I actually already basically knew everything about crunch, but good to get a refresher before nitro fuelled comes out.
I'm so excited to pick it up next month knew my fiancee love Mario kart and to me this game is better than Mario kart is why I picked it out cuz I knew my fiancee would love CTR.
@@MadSociety-uy6zg would you mind if i married your fiance?
@@joshdeveaux6936 wtf oh hell no lol
@@MadSociety-uy6zg damn it
@@joshdeveaux6936 what lol
I won't say he's a fantastic character, but he definitely had potential.
"I'm gonna shake, rattle, and roll your bandicoot butt."
Crunch will always amuse me with his catch phrases
Crunch didn't say that. That was Rok-ko
@@DJAB87 Ah seriously? It's been so long. Thanks for clarifying
Including Crunch in the game is a big deal since it shows that Post Naughty Dog characters and games are not beyond being brought back. Some have said they want a remaster of Twinsanity. And while I agree, I say I would prefer that they did not only remastered it, but fully completed it. For those who don't know, Twinsanity was rushed, it was meant to have a lot more content than it did. For example, Koala Kong was going to be a boss in the game, but was scarped due to time restriction.
I would love a fully realized twinsanity. I would be sad though cause some of the jokes wouldn't work if it was completed.
Totally be worth for a remaster of the check bounce scene.
A remake of it but with the original soundtrack.
Or they could go a different route by making a whole new game that introduce Nina Cortex and Crunch Bandicoot
But I wouldn't mind a remake of twinsanity
Plus Evil Coco and a few other dimensions
Nitro Fueled reestablished Crunch has having a lovable jock personality so I hope they run with that in any of his future appearances
Crunch holding that cake felt wholesome af
Sees title
MY FAVOURITE CHARACTER IN THE FRANCHISE!
Thanks
@@Whispangle THE BANDICOOT HIMSELF REPLIED! WOAH!
Death Egg Robot
yeah boooiiiiii
I''m very curious how they will add Pasadena without Von Clutch or any CTTR content
(She is not confirmed, but she is the most demanded CTTR character, next to Nina)
@The FLD's MarksDon MD We have a month left. I highly doubt they'll add either of these girls or anybody from CTTR especially that game isn't well received by fans from what I heard. I personally enjoyed it though.
@@ElectroBlastLuigi Same, maybe just the cars. Because there is only 6 cars options so far
CTTR is mixed I guess. It's like more balanced mix unlike WoC
@@ElectroBlastLuigi probably as DLC, that way those that don't want anything to do with it don't have to. They did say they're focusing on CTR & CNK content right now after all, but would be willing to give the fans what they want. (Aka content from other games.)
I doubt she’ll be added. My chances are on Nina since she appeared in more titles.
@@ryanwashere21 Yea, She is probably the most requested non-ND characters right now (Next to Rilla Roo and Pasadena)
A video about who Crunch Bandicoot is? Oof, now I feel old
After seeing him in Nitro Fueled and the cinematics for CTTR, I would say he's adorable.
Wasted potential, that’s who he is.
Let me guess your a "I hate every Crash game not made by Naughty Dog" person
@@rayman17578 Umm what? Mate he said that is wasted potential, so by that you can assume he liked the character, even if is not made by Naughty Dog...
he isn’t just wasted potential that potential could probably be used in the future plus that’s pretty harsh he’s not just a character who just to cash in he could be more capable just saying think about.
@@rayman17578 I thought Wrath of Cortex was a bad game even before I knew it wasn't made by Naughty Dog. Crash was awkward to control, the characters and colours were ugly and it was overall a slog to get through.
It was as bad of a Crash game as Enter the Dragonfly was a bad Spyro game.
@@krissuyx Yes Wrath of Cortex is boring I like Twinsanity though
It was tag team racing what turned crunch into a Mr t clone
Among all the other shitty things CTTR did besides throwing out the skill in favor of the gimmicky Clash System which people cheesed because N.gin, Nina and, to a lesser extent, crunch had the most powerful weapons in the game. Ai drives and shoot perfectly so the tactic was to clash until the very end of the final lap, let the AI drive, then unclash before the finish line.
Nitro Kart was where his voice started sounding like that. As for CTTR, say what you want about gameplay Crunch, but at least he was flawlessly animated in the cinematics. Nitro Fueled still beats it though.
@@BoostedMonkey05 boi, N.gin was a 1 shot, Coco was OP too, her magnetic shots drained your life like there were no tomorrow
@@Kevinilos ammo efficiency goes to the 3 I mentioned and Pasadena
The weird part is that in Tag-Team Racing it's at least self-aware in that he's intentionally trying to be a good role model in order to cope with the fact that he was literally created to be evil. He's supposed to be leaning too hard into it because he's overcompensating for his time teamed up with the EleMentals.
0:00 lmao crash does not really have a neck
Correction, he's almost entirely neck.
So does Mario... And Sonic... They too have no necks btw.
@@yourcordialvermillionchapw2398 that does not make sence
I said Crasb does not really have a neck and u said so does Mario and sonic
WHAT?
@@TroboTicTac, Oh god damn auto correct I forgot to add Mario and Sonic also don't have necks going on.
@@yourcordialvermillionchapw2398 lolm
Crunch is one of my favorite characters from the Crash Bandicoot series and I do hope they really work better on him on the future, Titans really did no justice to him, they didn't gave him a big chance to shine, the only game we get a bit of a chance to see him in action is on a GBA one, where the main enemy is N.Trace and N.Trophy, where some stages we use him, but they are all the sphere rolling around style of stage. Who knows, maybe if they renmake Wrath of Cortex they can up the game to get really more interesting, and after we finish the game we able to play as Crunch, that would be definitely fun.
Great video! ♥ Very helpful for new fans! I love Crunch, he has so much potential as a character.
Crunch was somewhat playable when you jacked him in Crash Mind Over Mutants. How they handle Crunch in Twinsanity was handled worse, he shows up once and never seen again throughout that whole adventure with no dialogue whatsoever.
Well, Twinsanity was rushed and had a huge amount of cut content. Surely he might have showed up somewhere in the game?
@@luckydudex3765 Nah they weren't going to use anymore of Crunch. Twinsanity was all about Crash & Cortex(mostly Cortex). I don't think Crunch was in any of the cut content either. The game shows concept art of the whole plot in much better details than the actual game, and there was no showings of Crunch in any of them besides the villain party club in 1st boss. It's almost as if they didn't know what to do with his character in that game.
@@MSCLeap75 The thing is, there are many ideas that we still don't know about. 9 months ago, a former studio developer mentioned the "Bug Run" level that was cut. That was 9 months ago which is very recent for an old game like Twinsanity. There was also going to be a sequel after Twinsanity which was cancelled. Maybe Crunch would have been there. I don't mind that they ignored Crunch from Twinsanity, though it would be nice if they gave him more than a cameo role, so your point is valid too
@@MSCLeap75 he was going to be on some sort of island with fake crash from what i saw, but nothing interesting happening
@@luckydudex3765 crash bandicoot and Spyro games stay getting ruined by rushed Development 😂😂 fucking bums
Man wrath of cortex wasn't amazing, but it was miles ahead the enter dragonfly fiasco.
Refresh my memory as to why people hated it again? As a kid it was fine for me, beat it within a week.
Never played enter the Drafonfly but I sure as hell played WoC, and I loved it(I know, unpopular opinion), especially the music, damn that soundtrack is GOOD!!
@@cesarcaballero2499 Literally the only WoC memory I have, was the Water Crunch fight. I don't even remember in what context the water was a part of it. Lol. Its better than everything after it besides Twinsanity.
It was amazing tf you talkin bout
Dev n it has the best music in the series
Crunch's personality in CTR:NF is more in line with his older incarnation.
Though considering remaster N. Gin having some Titans vibes (ballet dancing and screaming), Mr. T Crunch might return in a more sedated form.
I'm waiting for somebody to make a Ricardo Milos meme but with Cruch
Come to think of it, Crunch is basically the Crash series' equivalent of Knuckles. Introduced as a rival, and becomes the muscular, somewhat dim-witted, but still wholesome friend.
Thanks for giving my big buff baby some coverage
I love Crunch, he is an amazing character
Crunch is for the hip hop fans 👍
Aren't you forgetting something? Crunch also appeared in the GBA Crash Bandicoot games.
Dustin Nunn
on the GBA game that has wrath of cortex levels.
but TBH he hardly contribute there, he only replaced crash on those terrible "ball" levels
I actually liked Crunch in Tag Team, but nothing past it goes.
Crunch is like a Wario version of Crash.
Only where Wario is basically just an selfish exaggeration of Mario, Crunch is just buff.
No Wario is more like Cortex
No, Wario is FAKE CRASH.
@@rodrigomorales563 no
@@nyresolution1393 Well he's certainly not Cortex, either.
Wario's no genius, he stole a goddamn toilet thinking it was a crown.
I can get why people forgot about crunch he's first appearance in the crash games were in warth of cortex and I say wasn't one good of the crash games but at least on to CRY he shares lot memories hate him or not
Crunch better not end up like knuckles the echidna (specially referring to the sonic boom series version)
1) Sonic Boom Knuckles is best Knuckles
2) Krunch already have received the role the moment he turned face and started talking like Mr. T in Nitro Kart.
3) Him ending up in similar situation as Knuckles is 10x better the ending up like Shadow where he is flanderized to brooding a lot, talking how he is the ultimate lifeform (and some other BS) and using a gun cause since when have in the Crash and Sonic series animal characters used guns . . . besides Pinstripe and Fang the Sniper (or Nack the Weasal).
@@BigK13372 i just don't want the crunch from the titans series to come back, it was kinda annoying and i was used to a different crunch, and yea it seems like knuckles is more tolerable than the off character they're doing with shadow. I was Just used to the calm and chill knuckles from the SA franchise since it was more fitting. But who knows, ill just wait for the next crash game and see.
Silvermoon Eh, considering Vicarious they intend to steer clear from any elements from Crash of the Titans. Plus the mention Mister T portrayal originated from them in Crash Nitro Kart, because honestly he didn’t really have much of a character in Wrath of Cortex.
As for Knuckles, controversial opinion, I find his Adventure period characterization to be very generic. Especially compare to his classic (and Mania) portrayal, the Archie Comics and Boom where he manage to have a character besides just finding and guarding the Master Emerald. I mean classic have him being a well intentioned hero antagonist who is paranoid of anybody who enters Angel Island, Archie comics gave him a lot of backstory including his connection with the Echidna tribe and a sort of chosen one elements, and Boom basically made him the Ed of the group . . . now I regret that Sonic Boom doesn’t have a third season. Adventures and onwards Knuckles is pretty much described as “Another of Sonic Friends” with the only thing going for him are his hunt for the broken Master Emeralds and romance with Rogue (both of which are hardly focused).
@@BigK13372 yea, i found crunch in the wrath of cortex pretty bland and kinda empty, i just preferred him in nitro kart
I'm just waiting for my Nina Cortex to show up
To be fair, Kevin Michael Richardson's second performance in Nitro Kart was nothing like the original and sounded like Mr. T as well. I thought that Chris Williams was brought in there, but no, he was brought in for Tag Team until Mind over Mutant.
Hes basically reincarnated as Sonic Boom knuckles
Is crunch the big brother ?
Used to main Tiny when I was younger but now that Crunch is in the game and has the same stats. Gonna be using him since I loved him in WoC.
3:17 it's so cute how he brought a whole cake for crash tho
Crunch is crashes older brother😉
Technically yes since both were created by cortex
Yes they should remake Twinsanity and wrath of cortex as a double remake so all the new players can play them
4:37
Oh Right.... There is actually a very big possibility that they will ! Considering they've planned to support Nitro Fueled for a long time !
He was voiced by the same guy who played Captain Gantu from Lilo and Stitch, and the principal from American Dad
Bru, those boss fights brought back so many memories.
Crunch is pretty cool, I actually have a lot of nostalgia for Wrath of Cortex it was the first game I played on the PS2
When I first saw this I thought you made it because when Jacksepticeye played this game he asked who Crunch was too. But then I saw the date you uploaded this and Jack played this in June. Great video by the way and welcome back Crunch we missed you.
I forgot how much i loved the music ending this vid
Yes add Pasadena
:eyes:
I love crunch. Ever since i played wrath of cortex since i was a kid. Yes i actually only have good memories of that game cuz i was like 7 when i played it
With Crash Bandicoot 4 I hope he makes a great return
Am i the only one who doesnt mind crunch's voice in cttr ?
at least he was nice to bring cake it would make it funnier if he said "do we still have cake?" after the fight
Anyone know the song at the very end of the video during the credits?
I’m still waiting for missing characters such as Komodo Moe, Koala Kong, Tawna, Dr N. Brio, Baby T, Spyro, N. Trance, Emperor Velo 27th and 5 CNK Bosses Krunk, Nash, Norm, Big Norm, and Geary!!!
What about the Velo assistants?
That roster will be amazing. But i'm a little worried, Fake Crash is in Jungle Boogie trailer and that is Krunk's circuit in theory :/
@@Fab_1o they probably just wanted to reveal the track, then show the full track with Krunk later
addet rilla roo pasadena ebenezer von clutch and nina cortex toghether cttr content s on dlc
Crash Bandicoot the Wrath of Cortex was actually my first crash bandicoot game so i think its cool they included crunch in later games.
I wouldn't say he is the best character, but definently wasted potential, also just a fun character. Since wrath of cortex Crash, Coco, amd Crunch became the "Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles" of the franchise. This idea could've been explored further but the Crash games in general kinda went downhill from WOC. I'm glad to see Crunch in Nitro fueled and maybe they'll bring the trio back into possible future crash titles
Great job on the vid, and yeh your right they should put pasedina o possum
Thanks
I love Crunch, wrath of cortex was one of the first Crash games I owned alongside warped and the first game, now by far and away my favourite racer to use in nitro fuelled! 😁
Why was the Nitro Kart soundtrack so GOOD??? It's SLEPT ON
Remember when Crunch was little more than a Mr. T impersonator?
I'm glad we're past that.
i hope i gote my answer frome your video😔 but my question was crunch is a brother of crash and Coco or he just another bandicoot like them ?
I honestly love crash wrath of cortex I played it on GameCube though so not sure the differences is on PS2 so I'm even more excited for the remake of CTR.
If the next main series Crash game has Crunch in it I hope he starts off as a villain (doesn't have to be main villain) again and then joins the good guys at the end of the game similar to WoC or even become an anti hero.
To be fair whatever crunch's voice is i admire crunch as my favorite crash bandicoot character also the mr t voice parody first appeared in crash tag team racing for a fun fact of those who are new to crash since n sane trilogy ;3
Honestly, Crunch's appearance (not Mr. T) in a new Crash Bandicoot game is basically a prerequisite for me, especially as a playable character. The first Bandicoot who can destroy iron crates with a normal spin. That's my vision for him.
Pasadena o’ possum isn’t the only one
⬇️
Ebenezer Von Clutch! The mad green man as a German Cyborg 🇩🇪, makes him also reliable for CTR:NF for his comeback can make CTR, CNK & CTTR all in one game makes a special game for everyone
What game was the cutscene where coco and crunch find out that guy was a robot from ?
nitrokart
Why does Polar have a bat in Twinsanity? I never realized that 👀😂
Soo Crunch is like Ice Bear from We Bare Bears when Icey got hitted on his head then his personality changed but Crunch personality was experimented by Cortex...
actually, crash tag team racing should be one of the most fun remaster of crash ever considering the last remasters they did :v
I would love a reimagining of crash tag team racing. I liked the switch between racing and adventure. All the costumes. I think it would be awesome with a new coat of paint and updated gameplay
Giving the series a fresh start after ctr is probably the only way to go. Imagine if they actually tried to follow on from Mind over Mutant
I also ask them to put Pasadena in the game also I want her to live with the bandicoots so she can be best friends with Coco that was a miss opportunity
Well, Crunch had his Mr. T Quips from the Nitro Kart which came out at least five Years before the mutant series, though he had fewer sayings than before (It was almost like they were only doing the references for the sake of reference rather than a big overdeveloped ideology in later games) As the years went on he got more and more "Mr. T" sayings.
I forgot CNK music was that lit 😭😂😂
Get this I was only 5 years old and I played Crash Mind Over Mutants and I then got Crash Twinsanity I was wondering where Crunch was and I thought I saw him but wasn't sure if it was him then I had Crash Tag Team Racing and got CNK and saw him but never had all the others minus those 4 games but Crash Mind Over Mutants was my favorite cuz somehow as a little kid I managed to complete the whole story and getting a 100% I remembered I played it over the summer every 24/7 and as a teen which I played the game again I managed to complete the whole game on my old PS2 using a new memory card and completed the game to 100% within a week
(Edit): forgot to mention that I lost the 2 crash race games and I had Twinsanity but the game was kinda cracked and idk what made it crack cuz it was kept safe in a disc bag with the Mind Over Mutants
Plz make more of this...
I want to know of how Crunch got a metal arm?
Crunch makes me moist.
Nintendo Wolf lmao
Crunch still has a lot of potential as a character in the series, providing they avoid the Mr T angle. He makes a good big brother for Crash and Coco :)
I wouldn't mind Crunch having a *little bit* of the Mr. T angle, like they did in Nitro Kart, it's more of how overused the angle was since "Tag Team Racing". In Wrath of Cortex and Nitro Kart, you can see that he acts similar to Classic/Adventure Knuckles (minus the Master Emerald concept), so the Mr. T angle back then wasn't as noticable when that part of Crunch's personality was present. Later on, however, starting with "Tag Team Racing", Crunch would act more like what Knuckles would become in Sonic Boom; and that is when the Mr. T angle starts to get more noticed.
I'm not sure if Crunch would be in the new Crash 4, but some guy can dream
I honestly do think crunch did have some potential in the franchise I liked the idea that crash is pretty much going up against the bandicoot that he was supposed to be and then becoming like the knuckles the echidna of the franchise If we ever do get like a crash 5 or any other future games in the franchise I honestly wouldn’t mind if they did a retake on crunch like if they us how he was created and how cortex found him
I like crunch I hope he's new games
I hope he will be like his cnk self with kevin as his voice
Probably the only TTR character that I would like added to CTRNF beside Nina Cortex is Pasadena.
Ideally i'd have a gameplay dynamic similar to some sonic games
Crash-Sonic
Coco-Tails
Crunch-Knuckles
Thats pretty much exactly what it is
If Vicarious Visions is smart they'll make the most out of it
You forgot to mention tag team racing that's when he had a mr.T costume you could buy for him and they should make crash twinsanity 2 where he could maybe be a boss or he could be someone who helps you and cortex and Coco in your adventures since there was a whole lot supposed to go in the game and maybe they can put it on PlayStation 2 and PlayStation 4 since PlayStation 2 had amazing graffics for the first game so did Xbox
If they make a new game that includes post-Naughty Dog era characters, they could make Crunch a playable character for, I don't know, a little Beat 'em Up section? As a little bonus for people who actually enjoyed the Titans games, I guess. He is too big and buff to be used for traditional platforming levels, so...
Also, as for his personality, instead of making him a blatant Mr. T parody, they could use his personality in Nitro Kart and even Nitro Fueled - cocky and maybe obsessed with fitness, but still a good guy at heart.
Titans is my first crash game
is Crunch voiced by Jim Cummings? or the guy that plays John Diggle in Arrow?
Crunch was originally voiced by Kevin Michael Richardson, the same guy who played Maurice in the Madagascar spinoffs, Action Hank in Dexter's Laboratory, Nasty Canasta in the Duck Dodgers episode "The Wrath of Canasta", Uncle Pockets in Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends, Dark Laser and Santa Claus in Fairly Oddparents, and Captain Gantu in Lilo and Stitch.
@@robbiewalker2831 little bit too much info, only asked about Crush lol but thank you
We need a game where the Quantum Masks fight the Elementals
I kinda forgot crunch existed despite being one of the main characters of the series.
You forgot to mention that he was in Crash N Tranced for the GBA!
I loved that game so much
Well he didn’t go on a rampage the “Mind Control” that was placed on him was gone and he realized the station was exploding so he went with crash to escape
I'm happy our wish Pasadena to be a racer is coming true 🙂
And me thinking crunch just appeared Some day
Who's Pasadena O'possum?
warhammernerd52 a character from Crash Tag Team Racing
So much potential uuuhhhhn.
I want to know of how Crunch got a metal arm.
I’m not going to lie, I was hyped when Crunch was first redeemed, and I’m hyped that he’s back and hopefully better. I really hope he doesn’t get the mortal k treatment
