"Do you have a Permit to be in My Bush?" Is my new favorite combination of words
That's what she said
goomba society living in little bushes with bush permits is the best concept that has ever been created in the internet
The Lonely Goomba should rent out his bush.
Of all the voices for a Goomba...that type of English accent is exactly the one that you would least expect and want the most.
I don't know. A gruff accent like that for the lowest thugs in Bowser's army sounds about right to me. If it were a Yank goomba, it'd probably be a Boston, New Jersey, or maybe that Italian mobster accent. Imagine a goomba that sounds like the Sopranos or maybe Joey from Yugioh. But maybe I've just gotten too used his voice over the years.
Unexpected, yet fitting
It takes me way to much effort to realize a British accent, I can’t seem to notice it. I don’t know why, I live in Massachusetts, which I don’t think explains it well.
It's officially the canon goomba voice for me
As a Brit myself it’s nice to hear
"Post Traumatic Shek Disorder" is such a missed opportunity.
Shoutouts to lonely goomba to changing up his channel assets every one in awhile. Nice to see the design change over time
*once
I LOVE longer retrospective videos like this, im glad you’re giving these types of videos a shot !
Good morning!
Funny they mentioned Toy Story being a Doom clone, since both the SNES and the Genesis versions of one of the first Toy Story games has a level that's just straight up like Doom.
Ye. I originally had footage of that in the video actually but then I thought...the joke won't make sense if I show that footage. So I just pretended it didn't exist :p
You could have said after you made the joke, “well they made one leval like doom but still”
@TheLonelyGoomba
Can you upload the original footage? I'd like to see it so it can be preserved and so everyone can see what was meant to happen?
@@TheLonelyGoomba Shrek fairy tale freakdown in the village level you see the DreamWorks logo. Pretty cool huh?
I think I can explain why there's Madagascar characters in that final Shrek game. I had a version of the GBA Shrek 2 game that was combined on the same cartridge with a similar Madagascar game by the same developers. I'm guessing this meant they still had the assets of the Madagascar game to use in the engine and decided that if they had them anyway they might as well just make use of them.
Well this was a video I never thought I'd be watching.
Same but still enjoying it.
@@robertashmore1942 The best surprises are the ones you never expect.
But definitely one that we needed
I thought be sonic advance 3
these are the same guy I swear lol
the voices are too much alike
You just unlocked an entire quadrant of my memory with that Shrek 2 GBA gameplay. I swore I only ever played the Shrek 2 Gamecube game, but here we are.
1:41 a sort of fitting comparison as the first Toy Story game did have a first person section inside the claw machine on consoles.
the level is oddly missing in the PC version.
no shooting involved, but i wouldnt doubt it used the same tech as Doom did.
That's immediately what I thought of
Hey Goomba, I haven't had the chance to watch this yet, but I'd say I've been watching your content for a good six years at least. I want to say that as of this moment, and for some time now, your videos have been the most fun gaming related content on UA-cam to watch. So thank you for still doing these.
4:50 "It rhymes only if you speak in an American accent"
So the first game was basically right to treat American English and British English as two different things.😄
I cannot prove it, but I believe UA-cam's algorithm actively keeps your newer videos out of many people's notifications and recommendations. Here's a tenner for another fantastic video that deserves significantly more views.
Thank you for being the first person to ever leave a super thanks. Much appreciated.
As with the channel, and most smaller channels, it is a constant battle to get in the good graces of the UA-cam algorithm. It's an uphill battle so your donation is much appreciated.
Man these videos have improved plus the fact it's in 60fps makes it more smoother and I love that
Honestly it upsets me that you don't get more views @TheLonelyGoomba. Being honest here, you always put alot of time, work and effort in these videos, but the views are sadly quiet low. This is quality content...
Yeah, kinda sucks really
@@TheLonelyGoomba I know you and flandrew are the same person admit it
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a more fitting person to collab with Goomba.
They just have so much in common.
Their tone of voice, type of content they seem to be passionate about, and just overall opinions on games like these all seem to be very similar.
Anyways, this was a great vid, Goomba.
Can always count on you to be able to get through all these sh**ty games and give an honest review of them.
I even thought for a while that they were the same person!
20:41 Well... technically the DLC existed since the Dreamcast and the GBA has a peculiar way to make the DLC, the E-reader cards, and one example of that was the Super Mario Advance 4 World-E levels
DLC on the SEGA Dreamcast is one of those genuinely cool things that got corrupted by AAA gaming greed over time.
Not that downloading stuff via landline was any cheaper than horse armor or gacha mechanics, but imagine the fun and novelty of getting Opa-Opa as a playable character in Sonic Adventure 2’s kart racing mode (only the Dreamcast version, not GameCube) or Halloween outfits in that same game to celebrate Halloween 2001-all without giving any extra money to SEGA or Sonic Team! Now you could use that extra money you would have paid for DLC to pay your inflated landline bills at the time!
The e-reader stuff is already programmed into the game, the card just unlocks it
@@chocolixo So basically it's like that infamous "locked DLC" stuff that Capcom did for games like Marvel Vs. Capcom 3, huh?
@@JeffreyThrash yeah, but Nintendo didn't advertise it as DLC at all, the cards mostly just unlocked minigames or NES roms
@@chocolixo My puny 8-year-old brain at the time wouldn't have comprehended it if they advertised it as what we now call "DLC" anyway.
Again, this concept of adding small new stuff to existing games was genuinely cool before the so-called "AAA industry" got their greedy mitts on it. That includes the e-Reader, not just the Dreamcast and its early examples of DLC. Imagine if Nintendo nowadays let us unlock NES ROMs in cool ways like rather than simply making us pay again and again for a "Virtual Console" or a "Nintendo Switch Online Subscription," depending on the console. At least the e-Reader had a bit of childlike whimsy to it.
It's been a VERY long time since anyone's actually mentioned Smash N Crash Racing. The game's home console port is actually amazing imo
Shrek 2: Beg for Mercy is a guilty pleasure of mine. One of my first GBA games so that might be why but I thought the gameplay was passable and a decent time-waster after classes were over.
Starting this with Sonic Advance 3 and then cutting to Shrek is a huge nostalgia hit for me. Shrek 2 was the game that came bundled with my GBA, and Advance 3 was the first game I chose.
I bet this gonna be many people’s introduction to Flandrew.
Shrek: I can lift things
Donkey: I can kick things
Boots: I can climb walls and grind
Shrek after human: I can deflect arrows now. neat.
Gingerbread: *I commit mass genocide*
1:46 I like how they added the Dreamworks logo up there
God I remember watching your Reekin Havoc video like multiple times when I was like 14 and thinking it was the funniest god damn thing ever for some reason.
I was happy seeing you bring up that you reviewed it before. You even introduced me to Caddicarus
Thank you two for the really funny and interesting reviews of the GBC/GBA Shrek games.
I’m really loving these honest and positive videos. Genuinely nice 👍
This was a great video, I always love it when you do collabs like this.
Oh wasn't expecting Flandrew with Goomba of all people but it makes sense now that I think about it.
This is random as hell as a pairing yet makes so much sense. Nice one!
This is relatable it's so hard to go one day without someone trying to convert me into shrekism
I will always respect your dedication to beating these shitty games
Awesome to see another upload from you! :D
Also I like the animation in this video, it looks nice :)
Thank you Goomba. Im so happy that you keep UA-cam feel like home. All your videos have grown so wonderful and hope you play for the rest of your life!!! I'll be watching
This is an excellent video by both of your standards! You and Flandrew should collaborate more often-your styles coordinate perfectly, as well as your personalities and jokes. Great video!
It feels weird to see the animation in 60fps but I still really enjoy it! Definitely seems like this could have taken a really long time to make. Great quality!
I usually don't go in for these collabs but I loved this!
A new Goomba video is always one of the most welcome things I see pop up.
Nothing but banger vids, been watching since 2012 and haven't been bored once!
28:42 I don’t know what you were talking about earlier then, since this game represents the movie perfectly
This has become my favorite channel. It's a nice escape.
Thanks. Means a lot to me to hear that
I recall growing up with the ds version of Super Slam. It was a top down 3D fighter.
8:29 As an American from New Jersey who frequently visits New York City I have to say that that is the greasiest pizza I have ever seen! 0/10
I've seen this channel in the comments of other videos but this is my first time watching the channel
The whole Shrek-religion thing killed me 😅
I've never heard of this Flandew guy until now.
It's been a minute since I've seen a Lonely Goomba video. I like the design of this Goomba a lot.
When you did the Reekin' Havoc bit, I was expecting you to reverb the whole spooky forest list bit you did
1:44 well there was that one level in the claw machine.
Cool crossover. Harry potter man and the goomba.
19:07: In all fairness, the game came out before the Spinoff movies, so maybe the retcon would be like this:
After his adventure with the Magic Beanstalk, he goes on to help a young lad win the heart of the princess. Puss was gonna retire before looking at the ad for the Poison Apple. As for why Puss was a pet for Fiona in an alternate timeline, perhaps Rumpelstiltskin’s takeover of Far Far Away got rid of the Poison Apple’s business, since he made Far Far Away into a haven for villains. So this backstory could be considered canon, when you think about it; simplicity is a good narrative tool, honestly. After all the game’s backstory didn’t mention that the man was given the Cat by the Miller, like the original story.
I'm glad you discussed the positives of these games instead of just brushing them all away. With a bit more spit and polish, at least a couple of these Shrek games would be very good!
I'm a big fan of this era of Shrek games where the executioner guy is playable because I guess they thought they didn't have enough characters
Little fun fact about Fairy Tale Freakdown is that it's impossible for Shrek and Fiona to fight each other. If you play as either of them you face a 'new' fighter called the magic mirror when reaching their stage that transforms into a clone. (The manual even listed magic mirror as an official fighter iirc.)
Still doesn't explain the other Shrek or Fiona though.
I hope this being uploaded the day of Shrekfest 2022 was intentional (was by far the most packed year I'd ever been to by the way).
27:16 Am I the only one that notices Goomba and Flandrew didn't see Verne from 'Over the Hedge'?
This goomb continuously brings back my childhood memories
My stepsister was playing a Shrek GBA game when we were on a family holiday in Spain and having watched this entire video, yep I still can’t tell which one it was
1:07 - Shrek's about to snap that man's neck!
You know I remember seeing that Shrek GBC game in Nintendo Power...or at least if I'm remembering it. I thought it was cool, especially since you could play as Dragon if I recall. Weird childhood memory I know.
I had the game. So believe me when I say it wasn't cool.
I really love your videos and content goomba. Also I would love to see a video where you review some other dreamworks movie games for the GBA. Games like Madagascar over the hedge and some others that would be cool also I’m a big fan.
Used to own Shrek Swamp Kart Speedway as a kid and it's pretty funny how you don't notice certain things like that as a kid.
I vividly remember Hassle at the Castle, from how much I played it on my old DS Lite. It isn’t really as perfect as I remember it being, but it’s still somewhat fun.
I did play a lot of console Super Slam back in the day and that awful Treasure Hunt game on PS1 a couple times, so there has been Shrek in my playtime.
(ty for Patron of the Week lmao)
That first gba game requiring you to hold punch for you to run it’s so funny since all it would require the devs to do is remember the gba has shoulder buttons,
...guess I'm packing my bags to make a trip to visit Flandrew's channel now.
So this is why I saw you on that Shrek swamp kart racing video
That is pretty funny
This brings me back to "reekin havoc"
And they say Jesus has suffered. Meet Lonely Goomba.
Goomba finally escapes between the pipes only to play Shrek games
Very interesting review of all of these Game Boy sheik titles, however you sound a slightly different in your voice. Great video and transition cards with the guess guy, I will check out his channel to see how you fair in whatever force agreement he got you into.
6:08 a missed opportunity to say "Now that's what you call a friend to the very end"
27:17 wait was that the fucking turtle from Over The Hedge?
For the longest time, Fairy Tale Freakdown was the only game I owned for my gameboy colour...those were some dark times.
Apparently, Shrek Super Slam once had a tournament scene at one point created as a joke
Holy sh## so many games of Shrek
The heroes we need to expose these obscure Shrek games to the world!
Hey, theres also the first 2 shrek movies on GBA video, you can’t forget those
Shrek Racing looks fast as hell
That's some crispy animation. Hot damn.
9:28 shrek's christmas (yes that's a real christmas movie special)
Cool vid
2:36-2:40 That's not too far from the source material since he does things like drop kicks and headbutts during the fight scene in Farquaad's Castle during Shrek 1.
The Sreak games start coming and they don't stop coming
this vid introduced me to flandrew!
Shrek 2 for Gameboy and GameCube were a bizarrely big part of my childhood.
I can’t wait to play shrek on my Xbo- I mean shrekxbox
8:17 more big heads but without the stylization now
You can't convert me to Shrek. I was born Penguins of Madagascar and I'll die Penguins of Madagascar.
as someone who played shrek smash n crash racing for the gba as a kid i can confirm it was pretty fun
If this doenst blow up with the algorithm I don’t know what will
I hope so. But my channel is kinda dead so I'm not expecting too much.
Would be nice for UA-cam to give me a break for once though
@@TheLonelyGoomba I mean it’s litterally everything UA-cam likes
Shrek collabs
The word every blank game
I remember having Shrek 2 on GBA. A tad disappointed that it ain't a beat em up like the console version that the commercials for it display, but I had fun.
LonelyGoomba kinda sounds like Flandrew doing a funny voice.
Ironic since Lonely Goomba was on UA-cam first before Flandrew.
>IF Dlc was on the GBA
>The Shiny Zizzagoon with a unique berry being the first pokemon DLC: am I a joke to you?
I remember playing Reekin’ Havoc as a kid. I actually beat it back then
I figured out that you were going to play shrek after sometime!
Huh, Sonic Advance 3 being halted feels oddly familiar…
Also, Richard probably does play Shrek. Why would anyone pass up that opportunity?
God, I remember that first Shrek game! Gingerbread Man was a helluva sod to fight.
I feel like some of these games (especially the puzzle to action platformer to walk simulator) feel like they just try to milk the license they have for Shrek while it's still there
HOLY SHIT, THAT ART STYLE IS CLEAN
Shrek hitting Dropkicks like Hardcore Holly lmao
