still amazed by the insane lengths this man will go to in order to uncover a video game secret
he’s quite the madlad
I know. I'm always waiting for the next adventure.
He doesn't give up, even when he physically cannot book a flight to Japan
His brain is way too huge for us, Nick is actually insane, he's doing THIS for history, Nick is probably the only youtuber that i actually respect.
If you compare Nick's videos to Clickbaiters videos, it's like comparing a candy to a vegemite.
imagine playing a game and getting a world record speedrun and nobody being able to beat it because nobody else can play it because you are the only one with a copy of that game
😂
Well anyone can play it now lol
Yeah but that is really unfare though right??

Yep that was me
same holy that give me goosebumps

I like how he refuses to dump the rom yet he expects someone else to give up his unique password that he needs for free.
@@platypus3899 to his credit, though, he did eventually decide "well, if no one else will do it, i'll get in the weeds myself" and that takes balls
Agree. If you want a special password solved, asking it for free is probably not going to net results.
yeah what an ass, seriously
> give up his unique password that he needs for free.
which was probably against mcdonald's rules back then, so he refueses to do an illegal thing, but asks someone to also do an illegal thing
I called him out on his video, and got flamed by him and his followers lol. He's a pos
“That person... is me”
And that’s when I realized that there was 30 minutes of video remaining
"my name is lindsey compton"
broo samee
I thought the same thing
SAME lol
Yo same
When the game is so difficult that it takes years to get past the title screen

Nice
McDonalds: Time to release the cartridge as a happy meal toy.
IGN and Cuphead
I ruined the 666
When he was talking about the Japanese travel restrictions, I was seriously expecting him to say something like “But you know what country Japan can ship to? Pakistan. So I booked a flight to Karachi.”
this would have been an excellent plan B
@@babylonian good
Lol
I was expecting an express vpn ad, and I know that’s not how that works. But it’s what I thought
I thought he was gonna say he was going to move to Japan ngl
the SECOND i watched him place that game into a checked luggage, i was overcome with an intense feeling of dread and despair.
Me too! Also it was not supposed to be checked. Anything with a battery goes in carry on. He took risks!
@5xt well not really, you can't check bare battery but you can check integrated battery installed in a device, such as a laptop or DSi
Yeah I definitely would have put it in my carry on.
This is so movie like that it even has the trope of the guy-who-used-to-do-thing-and-has-to-be-convinced-to-do-it-one-more-time thing
Nick Robinson has maxed out his charisma stats that he is able to convince anyone to help him achieve his weird goals
"You son-of-a-bitch, I'm in."
@@imannatasha3302 he maxed out Charisma and also Luck, though Luck has definitely surpassed the max though.
Or more of the
Gov "you cant get that game!"
Nick "OH REALLY!?"
Ha
Perhaps one of the best twists I've seen in a UA-cam video.
For real.. chills...
Same here
The music leading up to it had me on edge
Lmao fr i was like *SHUT THE FRONT DOOR*
Which one tho lol
_When he says that this is where the story ends, but there are still 37 minutes left_
*Something‘s wrong, I can feel it*
they should of use it for 2019
haha Mcdonald's anime
*I want to see it.*
*i feel a disturbance in the force*
It's just, a feeling
I'm so curious as to why your brother would put such a rare and expensive item into his checked luggage instead of carrying it in his backpack, where he could personally monitor and assure its safety.
Omg the second he put it in the suitcase I was like “really?!” And as soon as he walked out of the airport terminal without it I was like “I had a feeling that would happen”. Might be a reasonable explanation as to why it was better off in checked luggage but damn I could see the suitcase issue coming before it happened. At least it all worked out
@@Loops-1 maybe to create drama for the video?
@@cko519I doubt they would risk a rare 3000 dollar purchase for drama, I’d imagine his brother just didn’t think about it very much or understand its rarity.
i think it was because of the lithium battery
@@sarahwatts8184 That's an interesting theory, but I'm pretty sure that small electronic devices with lithium batteries are allowed in cabin carry-on. Think of how many people have their phones, laptops and game devices to use during the flight.
“Smuggle the mcdonalds ds” is a string a words i thought I’d never hear
This made me laugh more than I should have.
Everyone, we need to make sure to keep this under wraps to not compromise the delivery of the ds
Yo wtf I never expected to see Mogawty here
Holy shit Moga, this is the last place I expected to see you...
so you mean r/brandnewsentence
“And that person was me” had more impact then anything I ever experienced in fiction
Yeah
I knew it was coming and I still got fucking goosebumps
Even avengers was worse
He unfortunately gave it away by saying 'I've been keeping a secret from you'.
@@robertdegroot8302 I didn’t catch onto that probably because I watched this at 5am and half my brain was barely functional
I like that the German modder sent Haribo candy as a gift with the 3DS.
Same thing happened to Me when I bought Melee on German eBay
he a good boi.
A funny thing about that haribo for some reason in the US sells a different version of star mix then they sell in Europe (I know this cuz when I got home from a trip I looked for it and found a worse version) so now when I’m in European airports and stuff I buy like 6 bags of it lol so I appreciate this modder immensely lol
@unregisteredhypercam 12 Honestly, I think it differs in different parts of Europe. I'm from the UK and am 99% German Haribo tastes better.
i loved that too! my mom is the biggest Haribo fan on earth, so i gave 'em to her 😁
Cody was such a fantastic villain in the mcdonalds ds arc
HOW DO YOU LOSE HIS LUGGAGE ON A FLIGHT WITH LIKE TEN PEOPLE, COME ON
So many people becoming idiots because of Covid.
@@Strawberrypocky911. Nah, they were always idiots, but now that intelligent people stay home, there's a higher ratio of idiots out there
Jk
Since there are so few people on flights they fill the luggage compartment with cargo, his luggage probably ended up at a local Amazon sorting facility.
Wait wasn’t it stated that it was delayed?
@@daderp5011 yeah they had a problem because of the lithium battery or something like that.
This video had everything:
-a relentless main character who's passionate about his work (video games)
-a mcguffin-like object sought-after by thousands of people
- a retired master of the trade that needs to be convinced by the mc
- a rival working towards the same goal
- a sibling that supports the main character's journey
- comrades along the way that made it all possible
And even at the end, even when the mc had been seemingly beaten, he still proves to be the hero, preserving the knowledge he had acquired for others who are just as passionate about video games. Nick Robinson is a true anime protagonist
You could say Nick was the... McMc
Plus Ultra.

I like how even when like 2 people are actually flying, airlines still missplace luggage
Classic American Airlines
No they're fucking everything up on purpose
They just wanted to look at that sexy intro.
I still believe its staged
Sir there is a fee to lose your bag during covid.
Reminds me of my ethics in game teacher, who made a game boy game for teaching kids math (I think) with a small group of independent developers, but has now been completely lost so much so that he can’t find any of the original files even by asking the other developers
That is interesting i would like to hear more
@@epiccrusadr8583 unfortunately, I don’t remember the story all that well. I’m pretty sure he was working with a nonprofit group helping kids in South America at the time, but I can’t remember the exact country. I would share his name, but not publicly like this. Though if you’ve read any academic papers about video game ethics (especially around gambling and micro transactions) then you might have seen him once or twice.
@@yubcreepin4099 pl pls pls pls we ned to restor game
It felt so scandalous when he admitted he was the one that won the auction.
>Looks at the remaining time of the video and listens to the music
>Yeah he won it
I'm good at these things.
Remember the Ashleys from disney's recess,,,,lol
Not sure how I came across this, but this is one of the most strangely interesting documentaries/videos I've ever come across considering I'm not a gamer... Awesome storyline and really really well done! 🤙 Great job n thx for sharing this video and the actual game with the world!

I hope you guys know that this is the same dude who had his apartment burn down once, exposed a secret voice actor from Monkey Ball, got attention from hideki kamiya, added search results to some dog from a old 3Ds game, and more (look at his video essay playlist - there's much more there). This dude is like the Mr.Beast of investigating video game mysteries.
the funny thing is.... he once again wasnt the first to do what he did(the Dog in the 3ds game) like how "unlucky" do you have ot be that that weird obscure and unknown thing you spend an video on, was done by someone before
@@weberman173 yes
@somethin background info?
Yeah can we get more background info

damn cody really thought he was gonna get to keep this game all to himself lmaoooo
I love how he went through all that and 2 weeks later its free online
This man could find a decommissioned Polybius machine behind his local Walmart.

I was like oh no, he wouldnt, wait he could, o mama mia he do it, OOOOOOOO HE DO IT, i have to stand up and leave the computer xD it was so intense and awesome xD
Ironic that it ended up in the hands of an American
Almost like it’s home
As all things should be
@@Lucas-sk5iy this videos insane
Same bro il drink to that
Not only did they take the middle east’s oil, they took japan’s McDonalds equipment
Country roads, take me home...
hold on, are we not gonna talk about how insane it is that cody's forum name was "code1038" and the log in for his cartridge ended up being "LE1038" ??? like how mind blowing is that. he had the login in his name a whole decade before he could get in
4:11
43:41
NO WAY
To be fair he could’ve changed it after, when Nick got these screenshots for the video?? But if that that is WILD
This.
From what I saw: he already dump the save file and know how password work, so maybe he change the save file and put it back
“The real password was in your heart all along.”
I can't believe I just watched a 50 minute documentary about a McDonald's DS game
With the twists and turns of it all, it honestly felt like a mystery novel, it was amazing
I never thought of that
But yeah xD
When he said "see the person who placed that bid"
I was instantly like: " No you DIIIDN'T"
Daniel Martínez I heard him say that and yelled(involuntary)"T'WAS YOU" I got in trouble for yelling in the house...
i didn say noting the only thing i tought in my head was "it was probably him 60 or 70% were sure of it and 40 or 30% tought nah it was sombody else so i won the bid GANGSTA"
Dawggggg I stgg
I literally said very loudly "NO TE PASES DE VERGAAAAA" which roughly translates to "no fucking way" in ñ language.
It was really smooth how he snuck in that brand deal with buyee
A man who spent 3.2k dollars, waited 2 months to even lay hands on the game itself, and got a German modder to make him a 3ds with a capture card. All that work, time, and money just dump it for free for everybody to enjoy. This man is the definition, of a mad lad.
He got 4.7 million views and probably a bunch of subs this video will definitely make the money back if not with ads directly then with the subs and viewers he gained that will now watch his videos in the future
Buyee is the true bro
@@Lurcii
call that an investment
2 grand is cheap for 5 million views Supposedly you can make around 10 grand from 5 million views...

Being French myself, Cody's "it's illegal" is the worst excuse ever for a French person. Dude, cut the shit and be honest about wanting to keep it for yourself

Saw it coming from a mile away, but it still shook me. What a power play.
Yeah the build up was way too long, it became too obvious.
Same, except I thought he was gonna say “That person... is not me” and just troll us
I skipped 10 seconds and then cried. cinematic masterpiece

That would have unironically been more interesting. A story about him being sniped and then trying to track it down only to find out someone bought it specifically for him.

When the dramatic music started to kick in and he said "dear viewer," I was like no way, the fricken madlad did it!
I actually predicted it when he mentioned for the first time that someone placed a sniper bid last minute

Is MonkeyBall even fun?
Thank you for dumping and uploading the rom, that's the best way to preserve these things for posterity.
I kind of understand why collectors buy stuff like this and sit on it without sharing, but all it takes is a house fire, or perhaps a relative discarding 'junk' after the owner dies, for these things to be lost forever.
I really enjoyed the video too, very well-paced and suspenseful.
It was fun to follow the twists and turns of the journey of that cartridge, and really cool to think that, thanks to your generosity and sense of community, I now own a little piece of it.
I honestly adore that this game for no good reason whatsoever has such an incredibly dramatic, grandiose theme. It feels as though it was created specifically for the situation wherein this game would become immensely rare, and as time went on, the passwords and IDs would be lost to time, and this game would rest behind a locked password as though it were its tomb.

I've never heard of ANY of these people, including Nick himself - not even remotely on my radar.
THIS. THIS STORY is how it's done, this is how the game of life is played.
None of this has any objective meaning, we give meaning to it in our pursuit of insatiable curiosity; engulfed in our own little obsessions, intersected by something so seemingly trivial as video games. From it comes so much energy and life, love and respect.
So much respect to you for making this video, and reaffirming positivity in the world.
Keep it dirty.
Imagine not only recovering a rare game, but completely restoring it to the rest of the world.
People: Why didn't Coddy just brute-force it?
The login screen required a user ID that was 6-digits long, 0-9 and A-Z. That's 36 possible characters.
36^6 = 2,176,782,336 possible user ID's to try.
For a computer, that might not take very long (depending on how seriously you're trying to crack the user ID), but for Coddy, he would've had to input every single possible combination by hand. Not to mention, there's a password afterwards. Granted, the password for the ID that Coddy found would have been guessed straight away, but there was no guarantee that would happen.
Not to mention, we don't know (based on the video's information) whether or not each cartridge had a single user ID and password combination, or if, say, Nick's user ID and password would work on Coddy's game and vice-versa. If the latter, that means Coddy could have potentially come across a different user ID with a different password when brute-forcing, and therefore the password would not necessarily have been 000000.

Holy shit, thank you so much! I love that you even included the "why collectors don't share bit". The beauty of the internet (sometimes) is when people share things in wholesome ways, and you did that. Coddy may have slightly gotten ahead in terms of unlocking the game, but you beat him in playing and sharing the game with us. To me, that's a noble and bigger win than some technicality. Thank you very much, I didn't know if I would play the game but seeing the gameplay got me interested and while I didn't have high hopes to actually play, you sharing the game is truly amazing and I thank you a lot! You make the world better (another win that Coddy won't have imo lol).

@@bitterlemonboy Ya know he wanted to keep it for himself, what an- nevermind.
@@Ghorl266 No, It's not. It's like sharing the cartridge with a friend. Except you're sharing it to thousands of friends.
@@bitterlemonboy it is illegal but your chances of getting caught are near zero
@@bitterlemonboy he lives in france.
"hey bro! I've missed you so-"
WHERE'S THE DS MARK
He said he did't notice right away.
@@giantbrayford7754 that’s probably why he would ask where it was
I read this In a batman voice
What do you MEAN it isn't in your backpack? 😲
You know this is basically the plot to Indiana Jones?
An American researcher going to insane lengths with his family to exotic locales around the world, while dogged by a French rival
This was truly my favourite video, the emotions I went through, the history I witnessed, all that in this one 50 minute video. This was amazing hats of to you,nick.
"We'd been beaten"
It doesn't matter, brother. You are one of only two people outside of Japan to play this game, and you yourself have cemented yourself in preservation history, as you were the one to dump the whole ROM for preservation purposes...
Exactly. Nick will be the one remembered for not only his amazing content but the selflessness of dumping the ROM.
he is one of 2 to own the physical game cart
@@FlowerBearTTV there's obviously more people with one, but those are souls that will fall to oblivion, for not disclosing their existence...
You smuggled a long-lost McDonalds game out of Japan.
That's literally the best thing i've ever heard on the internet.
44:03 just a timestamp for myself :)
lol tru
My grandfather smuggled a license plate out of North Korea
Nick you should find the Luigi's Mansion Beta disc
lol
YESSSSSSSSSSS
@SuperWiiBros08 That would be incredible if that happened. But, it's been 20 years since it was first shown to the public at Spaceworld, so I doubt it still exists. But, you never know. Edit: Forgot to put this in but I fixed some grammar and spelling lol.
*Y E S !*
~ so I flew to Japan
"That person... is me."
Good God, I've never had a plot twist hit me so hard.
AHAHAHAHAHAHA
Dude... I got literal shivers
I HAVE GOOSEBUMPS
I thought it was a random dude lol.
"That person? ... is me."
Its 3 am and I literally cheered like a soccer mom after her kid made their first goal
I feel like nick just put all his points into luck when he made his character
He has the highest crit rate known to man.
@@joshuatavares326 niceeee
My points expired before I was born so I have no skills
Yo I swear bro I’m pretty sure he’s a unarmed build or melee but Idk
@@picklechicken8396 I feel that
"That person ... is me."
*You had my curiosity - but now, you have my attention*
It was so fucking bad ass
*What a Plot Twist*
@@HipsterBlackMetalOfficial I mean it was probably the sponsor that paid for most of it. They tend to hand out lots money when they know it'll be something that gets their name out there
😂
"All right, you have my attention Rose. Can you tell me who the woman in the picture is?"
(IDK why that popped into my head. 😂 🤣 )
I found your channel back in 2020-2021 through this video. I still love to come back to this video and rewatch it over and over again. I became fascinated with obscure, lost games and media through your videos. Love your work, and so happy to have found your channel!
This man made buying a DS game into a full blown Indiana Jones movie.
No fucking joke
xDD true
I can't help but wonder if this is itself a little bit of an understatement. 😂 🤣
Without the grizzly over the top death, and the French isn't the villain.
Code: nooo, you can't dump the game that's illeagal!
Nick: *I bought a de-listed game using Subway as currency, do you think laws apply to me?*
Code just didn’t want to sell his copy
Lmao
I forgot he did that.
Nick is a mad man, we love him for it.
Which video was that?
Driver San Francisco, I think
I think next you should find Crow 64 I heard it’s amazing
Even Nexpo is here
Oh yes
just searched it up and watched that guy’s video thanks to this comment and i am STUNNED, lol. what an incredible video
YOOO NEXPO
Yo
This video and story are both absolute masterpieces and I think this might even be the best video I've seen here. I just can't put into words how good it is. Amazing job, Nick and everyone involved!
This is probably the best ad a company could ask for. The Buyee company is a true hero
Thought you were talking about McDonald's
@@Beastofdestruct lol me too.
Nick you should find the Luigi's Mansion Beta disc
It’s paid promotion. There was absolutely no reason for him to use their service in this instance.
@@alexmednick431 obviously it’s a paid promotion that’s what an advertisement is. But it does make sense for him to use their service
The real MVP is his brother who didn't even open the package. Good shit.
@@Bonezee mans so powerful he stops himself
could have been sent a bomb or not what was described and put both through a health risk. real MVP there
He deserves one of those Mickey DDS
What’s beyond me though is how he couldn’t put the damn thing in carry on luggage? Who puts a console in checked baggage?
Idk. It seems like he should have put it in a carry on. He almost lost it!
“So I smuggled myself into Japan illegally”
-Nick
Lol
"So I sent myself in a package via DHL to Japan"
- Nick Robinson, maybe
wth is that pfp
@@M0D776 Solid Nick
I love how all of this is for a fricking cooking simulator.
Yes. One lost in time.
Maybe to those employees it was.... Whatever.
But to us, it's a treasure with unappreciated art and information in one crossover product.
So much more valuable when people look for it.
Your not a collector are you
@@w7b9 he was kidding and talking about the game itself
You aren’t very smart are you?
Also *you’re
@@w7b9 smart, are you?*
Cooking Mama DELUXE: McMama
Nicks brother is a genuine hero. What an absolute chad.
Nick's brother also films and makes jokes the same way Nick does, must run in the family.
@@bracoeth Not to mention the monkey ball playing
porter robinson is also nicks brother :D
@@torototoro1252 LMAO WHAT THE HELL THIS IS A POWER FAMILY DAMN.
I even thought that mark reminded me of porter it makes so much sense omg
@@GoodieM8 who is porter robinson
before watching: "what joke am I about to watch"
after watching: " What cinematic masterpiece did i just have the pleasure of witnessing"
LMFAO FOR REAL
Exactly
Def
I had avoided watching it cause I thought it was some random vid, but then I kicked the bucket and watched it and it was sooooo awesome!
It was like a movue
i'm japanese.
The funniest thing in this video is the movie of japanese MacDonalds store.（42:24）
Maybe he doesn't know what it is.
It's a news of MacDonalds and it says "マフィンから人の歯が" ,it means "A muffin with someone's teeth was found".
lol
That’s disturbing
I guess that kinda tracks for a training resource, like those orientation videos for factory workers that show dudes getting maimed by the machinery. "Welcome to the company! DON'T DO THIS"
“That person...”
No dont you say it
DONT DO THIS TO ME
THIS IS A CLASSIC LINE BUT DONT YOU
“is me”
HELLO???????????????????????
Mfer really made it look like he's iron man or something
@@NOT0RIOUS4 it worked doe
but we all know it was him when he tryna slowly expose it
Damnit you kinda ruined the surprise for me
John Oliver would like to know your location.
