Red Earth is one of those games where I'm surprised more indie game developers haven't mine it for ideas.
Really, a RPG-Fighting Game hybrid where you take a character and level them up in the story and/or arcade modes to gain more abilities and combos as they fight progressively tougher bosses would be a unique approach to creating more Single-Player fare for a fighting game.
Oh, and I'm down for you to tackle more Red Earth. Tessa would be my pick if you revisit the game, and maybe play her in Pocket Fighter to top it all off.
I think it would be really cool to see more red earth gameplay. I've never really seen much of it until this video, plus your reactions to the enemies are pretty funny.
Matt, thank you so much for covering Warzard! Red Earth community is so happy that this game is getting a recognition now! we were playing this game since 2019, had weekly tournaments with prize pools as well! we discovered a lot of stuff and even completed the wiki!
This game is a gem, it has so much depth, some fighting games would dream having that much looseness, especially considering that this game has 4 characters! I’m actually shocked that capcom managed to make something like this with this small roster.
again, Matt, thank you so much for trying out this treasure of a fighting game! if you decide to give this game a go, I can help you out, just let me know
I'm glad to see Warzard has a community behind it. When I bought my CPS3 board back in mid 2000s with SF3, the guy selling it threw it in for free, at the time I had no idea what it was. I think I probably have played more Warzard on my cab than any other game.
This game's come a long way and the community's still learning and discovering new stuff of this game. It has a lot of meat to it if you like characters with expansive movelists and high potential, as well as characters with a mix of different archetypes. Game is amazing, and our competitive scene is always buzzing.
@@Norskolld oh really?! damn :D I wish I had cps3 board for free xD
@@warnichvorster9387 yeah! we discovered a bunch of stuff, I even showed couple of things in my movelist videos. although, I'll probably make a combo video in the near future to show everything cool that Red Earth has to offer
@@HBProductionMugen once upon a time their value was kind of trash because the boards couldnt be phoenixed yet and all the security batteries were dying. I paid for the cps3 board for SF but they threw in the disc and cart for Red Earth/Warzard for free. Also got cheap JoJos. Most of those games at the time were considered failures at the arcades so places were offloading them and everything was moving to modern wide-screen cabinets.
I definitely wanna see more Red Earth
Kudos to the editor at 18:21 for using the Capcom fighting evolution hauzer shinkiro art on top of shinkiro geese art to make it look seamless!
Fantastic work on this showcase! These games definitely deserve all the love and attention they’re getting from fans both old and new! You definitely have a genuine love for these games.
I would love a Darkstalkers retrospective from you. The origins and making of the series is fascinating, tho it’s surprising how there’s several different origins for how they started. Regardless, I feel the more people know and learn of this franchise and get to know the characters, the more fans will come to it. Hopefully, one day, it’ll get the next game we’ve been waiting for (also Puzzle & Gem Fighter because that SD Chibi style is so great, especially for references, and I’d love to see it applied to franchises post 1997. RE, DMC, MH, etc would all be hilarious).
Hope to see you online in CFC one day!
Some one all ready did that,ua-cam.com/video/hW11gla0gok/v-deo.html
@@orangeslash1667 several people did, even before that one. In fact, the gold standard for an EXHAUSTIVE Darkstalkers retrospective belongs to The Nostalgic Gamer's Darkstalkers Forever Project. But we can always use more, because the more people keep "Darkstalkers" in the public discourse, the better for the franchise. ua-cam.com/play/PLuzXM6Wx_4n2R18xpPNdZChZHC6xYVXhQ.html
Morrigan's sprite is so perfect, Capcom dared not ruin it with "touch-ups" or "updates."
SNK characters in Capcom vs. SNK 2 could only wish they were as detailed as Morrigan.
They totally should've went with their Neo Geo appearance to even stand a chance at being as detailed as Morrigan.
I dunno. I never thought it was particularly great even in the original Darkstalker games never mind it's re-use in non-DS games that came later. To me it was like how crude the Mega Man NES sprite always was, I gave it a pass in the first MM but all SIX NES games used the same dorky looking sprite whereas most other games often improved their sprites even with fewer games (Mario for example).
@@666slateran666 I think she looks like a cardboard cut out compared to the other fighters. Plus that extremely awkward stance and rather dull idle animation. And the face was never particularly well defined. I know you can't fit many pixels in there but other characters managed better faces (Felicia even attempts anime style eyes in a very tiny space). I always wondered why Morrigan looked hot in the intro and portraits and then ugly in sprite form.
in cvs games she looks so pixelated compared to the rest
@MercuryCDX And we wouldn’t want it any other way!
Man it's so cool to see RedEarth released in a big collection like this, I would kill to see Capcom make RedEarth 2 with more characters and multiple story routes
This is one of the best fighting game collection,Capcom has ever put in their library. Darkstalkers and Red Earth are the only ones that I am excited about. Even Pocket fighter that came in the Wonder Swan got ported in the PSP is now on the collection. Best of the best collection ever. I just wish Saturday Night Slam Masters added into the collection.
The reason I started to enjoy Matt's work, and continue to do so, is his ability to carry content with his personality.
There is no hyper crazy edits in his videos. No mindless screaming or constant cut aways. He let's himself carry the video and stays as the star of it. He knows how to entertain people by being witty and giving actual commentary (either in his experience with this let's plays or his Wha Happun videos). And just throwing in those little skeleton style versions is just the cherry on top.
I enjoyed this and wanted to just give a thanks to you Matt for staying unique in your style and just being you.
Give us more of that Red Earth! Keep playing until you unlock Kenji's heart ripping fatality. Kano could never dream of ripping out hearts with so much style.
I want one of those big crossover movies like Wreck it Ralph or Chip'n'Dale with hundreds of different companies' characters all showing up, but Morrigan is still her old sprite.
I just bought this and I’ve been enjoying replaying these classics. I never played Cyberbots until today, and it’s such an enjoyable game. Red Earth was pretty cool too. Still need to play through the rest of the games!
@@666slateran666 Cyberbots is pretty fun. Red Earth is strange but great.
@@666slateran666 yeah, it doesn’t handle the best, but it was cool to see the original source material for Jin Satome in the MvC games.
Come play me at cyberbots some bloodrose9 pn steam

Vampire Chronicle for Matching Service really needed to be a part of this collection, Hunter 2/ Savior 2 with their rosters just doesn't cut it.
Did that one have Dee as a hidden character?
@@Boonehams Dee was only in the PS2 version of the Vamipre: Darkstalkers Collection, IIRC.
It was butt ugly on Dreamcast.
Vampire Savior on Saturn is best overall version imo.
Oh god, Cyberbots. I remember seeing this in a magazine article freaking decades ago.... There were a set of robot toys with interchangeable parts, and you would build your robot out of the parts and plug it into the system and it would represent the bot you built out of the toys onscreen as your robot I'm guessing they represented that with the various robot configuration checklist. Holy shit, that was such as flashback.
Matt, more Red Earth, please! When you do, two tips:
The 6 Elemental Mystic Orbs have their own unique Supers you can do. To do Elemental Supers, you input qcb+PP (2 punch buttons).
And second tip, you can switch Orbs anytime by pressing Start.
Heck yes to more Red Earth and the Darkstalkers retrospective!
This is the first time I've seen that Red Earth game and I'm in love with it!
I only know Darkstalkers on a surface level so I'd love a retrospective on it.
Bought this for Red Earth and it's so much fun!
Big ups to Editor Ultima, some good catches in these vids. Funnies everywhere!
This collection is awesome. Really hoping it does well so we get a vol 2 with Rival Schools, Power Stone and others.
If I'm correct, Rival Schools is up next on Itsuno's list after Dragon's Dogma 2
Man, Red Earth is so cool of a game. I love the RPG element to it. And the characters are so cool.
Morrigan sprite is truly emortal. Watch it be the only sprite that doesn't change in a Dark Stalkers reboot with new character models. Felicia? Johnny? Dimitri? All SF6 style new character models. Morrigan? Same old sprite from 94. XD
You're in luck, The Punisher is now a part of Capcom Fighting Collection: Marvel vs Capcom.
Capcom Fighting Collection is a very fun game, and it got me to play and love Darkstalkers
Only now catching this video. Warzard/Red Earth is like one of my top 3 obscure Capcom properties (along with Strider and Onimushia), and I'm so glad it's finally got a release outside of the arcade. I feel like Capcom putting this in the arcade in the first place like it was a competitive fighter was a huge mistake, as it feels way more suited for home consoles. I sincerely hope you do more playthroughs of it, Matt.
Red earth was really cool
I’ve done nothing but play Gem Fighter since I got this collection. Such an amazingly silly game.
Same!
Cammy's sprite bouncing on a chair is 😍😍😍
The wise warrior knows when to quit, you don't look very wise
Haha “no wonder she took the kids”
Being able to play Cyberbots on modern consoles is so wild
2:18 Naosuke - "Chon Wang, why are you hanging around?!"
Kenji - "...Heyooo!"
59:08 That lance, that one is on Monster Hunter 4
With that MVC collection, that sprite will practically be immortal
"I'm not gonna remember that password!!"
Smartphone: "Am I a joke to you?!!?"
Wish Capcom did more with the collections. Past home ports integrated all the confusing Darkstalkers sequels, added voice acting and characters to Cyberbots, etc. They don't just have a great skeleton to build off of but a lot of pre-owned organs to fill it with.

I want more Rival Schools. I just loved and recall the unlockable final boss guy in red where his team up was cutting you both down, god I loved it!
53:56 i've long suspected that "Mighty" was meant to be a pun for "Mite".
Hell yeah a video to play in the background while i fuck up my combos
Finally got this during Capcom's summer sale. Red Earth is easily my favorite. Leo is my favorite.
16:35 That is something that it shared in common with the Darkstalkers games (mostly Bishamon's moveset).
Oh, God. The Guile squeaky toy hit FX nearly killed me!🤣🤣🤣
*I'll just eat the lobster mid match. *scion: can.. can i have some?
I'm 99% sure that the game select screen announcer that says the title of the game is Jon Bailey, the Honest Trailers guy.
2:06 When I was younger I used to love playing that.
and now Morrigan's sprite is back to outlive even more people
The fact that Hauzer was only playable in Capcom Fighting Evolution is a sin in the FGC
Man I’m so happy this collection exists!
Matt’s avatar animations are incredible! So much personality!
I’ll say this: while not the deepest fighting game in the world, Super Gem Fighter Mini Mix has got to be the most charming fighting game out there! There are so SO many references and Easter eggs to Capcom’s history from the 90s. A Chibi spin-off of a fighting game is an easy way into my heart.
Matt mentions Hi Score Girl, existence validated.
WARNING: he finally removes the scanlines at around 35:00
i like the scanlines
@@carn9507 I do too normally, but they added vertical scanlines too for some reason, and it makes the entire screen look dark in this collection
@@tmnttiny weird. I'm not seeing any vertical scanlines here, even when I screenshooted a frame of the video and zoomed in it's just horizontal lines. I used to hate scanlines on games on youtube videos but that was more in the SD days where the video resolution was too low and it blurred the image into a darker mess but on HD videos it's much more clear and accurate. Anyways yeah not seeing any vertical ones, sorry. :O
@@carn9507 yeah rewatching it idk why I thought there were vertical scanlines, so I take that back. but I still think it makes the games a tad too dark.
@@tmnttiny ah ok. I was confused as heck there. :P Brightness still seems fine to me (if it matters I was watching on my 50 inch HDTV... well it's a 4K tv too but the video was in 1080p) Have a good day/night. :D
It feels so validating to see a big fighting game buff saying the Darkstalkers naming conventions are bananas. I thought I was just stupid.
These Capcom fighting games from the 1990’s really inspired me to want to be an artist as a kid.
Something about about the visuals just look cool. It’s kinda like anime, but more western. I just wish we could get a 3D adventure platforming game in this style today.
at 47 minute mark: I want to say yes cause in any of the games in this collection its some straight up BULLLLLLLLLLL
With this collection and Street Fighter VI on the Horizon, the future of Capcom fighting games is looking bright!
Thank you for mentioning the RESURECTION/MORDERN SEQUEL RELEASE OF Cadillacs and Dinosaurs, Alien vs. Predator, The Punisher I HOPE Capcom makes it happen in this life time.
more red earth! can't give anymore praise than watching you play, made me want to buy this collection!
God I love Red Earth
I doubt Disney is going to let Capcom release AvP or The Punisher without paying some hefty royalties.
Both games were recently released on Arcade 1up Cabs, and the Capcom Logo arcade stick.
Lovely video. It’s pretty funny, I never picked up the Brawler collection, and just looked at it the other hoping to find Cadillacs & Dinosaurs, AvP, and the Punisher. Alas.
YES, more Warzard please!
Bro honestly! We need a collection that has power stone and especially rival schools!
Matt called that octopus a squid. What a westerner.
I'm not even much of a fighting game fan and I'm considering getting this to play Red Earth. Also, I will say what I say every time I see Morrigan and ask Capcom to do anything, ANYTHING with her.
7:53 Best laugh I've heard yet
That Proto Felicia reminds me of the cat lady from Battle Circuit
Nice video Matt, some good info here. 👍🏻
I knew about their sprites but I had no idea what kind of game WAR-ZARD actually was. Picking this up today, and definitely would watch more character play throughs!
I was definitely surprised they put Warzard and Cyberbots in this collection! I would love to see Tech Romancer in a future collection as well, as I'm not sure how long my own copy or even Dreamcast itself can still hold on before I'd be forced to mod it with a GDemu or something.
I played through Red Earth and Cyberbots and OMG those are such good games! Cyberbots became very hard near the end but it's so good!!!!
also... I feel your struggle in HSF2... coudn't beat my 1st opponent eather
I just received my copy of this game today!
I love the display filters, my favorite is the default Type D. I know a lot of ppl don’t like filters but seeing raw pixels on these 90s games is too weird b/c you never saw those blocky pixels for Darkstalkers during those years.
Edit/PSA: Watching Matt lose to Guile in Super T, he must’ve been playing the English version I’m guessing. The AI is beyond busted, you def wanna opt for the Japanese version it has more doable AI.
They should rename this collection to Capcom Hidden Gems (no pun intended) coz the love they gave it with so many neat features and massive archives proves how underrated each title is. Even if no direct sequels come out of this I hope new players will discover this and keep the legacy alive because after decades it's still fun to play.
Yeah, I'd be find with more Red Earth. And more Dawn of the Monsters as well.
these titles are like they threw the same five words in a hat and picked them out with their eyes closed
Red Earth or Warzard was a lost gem. I loved it for what it was. Too bad it didn't receive the acclaim it deserved.
Eat your heart out Devil Dinosaur, Hauzer is in the... hauze
So it turns out there's a bug in the English version of HSF2 (and only the English version) where the AI stays on eight star difficulty no matter what you actually set it to. That's why Guile was beating your behind so hard and was able to do stuff like instantly break stun and throw you the second you ever tried to get a combo going. This bug was apparently present in the original release as well so... hooray for an accurate port?
nice video , Matt , I just wanted to leave a little ''trivia'' about Red Earth , the character Blade has a different name in the japanese version , he is named '' Jihad '' , they changed for OBVIOUS reasons ...
Can't wait for red earth 2!
OMFG, YES. A Darkstalkers retrospective would be so interesting. Would love to see that. I only played the PSP version.
PSP version is the best version
@@aegisreflector1239 Fun Fact: The PSP game was directed by Hideaki Itsuno, who created Rival Schools and saved Devil May Cry.
@@orangeslash1667 The PSP version is also a Dreamcast port called Vampire Chronicle.
@@aegisreflector1239 yes
Training mode is probably cool later, but I like to treat these games no different than how everyone had to experience them at the Arcades. You boot the game and learn by fighting the CPU and Against players.
Later on after you develop your style, then you take benefit of the Console Experience and hone your style in.
But something like Red Earth, irs my first time playing, I rather learn it the hard and long way.
23:20 You can’t just hit me with Dango Daikazoku like that man. That and Kimi ga Kureta should be treated as weapons of mass depression.
Warzard's/ Red Earth's password system did drive some fans off. Had this got the personalized cards like Tekken though, this might have gotten bigger. It's definitely way ahead of its time. I wish Nool/Hydron pops in another game again.
Ok, I'm officially getting this. Also gonna pick up the beat em up collection cuz Armored warriors looks dope as hell. I've never played gem fighter, but wow, that game is just exploding with charm. I wish capcom still made games like that. Just fun little spin offs.
Ken wears street clothes because he is a fighter from the streets
11:52 Lol "Suborsinate"
Now we need a 3d Collection.
Please play more Red Earth! Such a unique concept for an arcade game.
Yes, more Red Earth gameplay please.
An hour of matt? mmmmyes plz
I wanna see more Red Earth, that game looks awesome
Whoa, dang, was the Ancient Gyrelance/Empire from Monster Hunter a throwback to Red Earth?
That's sick if so. Looks just like Blade's bonkers sword.
surprised that was Bengus artwork at the end, his style was so different back in the day. personally think he drew better back then
Kenkji reminds me a lot of Ninjor from Power Rangers.
Minus the Dudley Doright voice of course
I have never heard of Red Earth in my life. What a sick game!
I always thought Ken's cowboy transformation in Super Gem Fighter was a reference to Capcom's Gun.Smoke. I could be wrong, though.
Bruh, Warzard has a Chaos Emerald in its intro lol.
I think Thorgi did a retrospective on Darkstalkers last year but it was a decent watch.
