Superman (NES) - Angry Video Game Nerd (AVGN)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 31 гру 2009
- Bad games will never be faster than a speeding Super Nerd, as he reviews two bad video games based upon Superman, made for the Atari 2600 and NES. This is Angry Video Game Nerd Episode 50.
Since his print debut in 1938, Superman has become one of the most recognizable and beloved fictional characters of all time. It is inevitable that game companies would try to give players a Man of Steel simulation in some form.
Throughout the history of Superman games, balancing his near-invincibility with the need to provide a legitimate challenge has yielded peculiar results.
Here, the Nerd shows us two of the best-known Superman games (for the Atari 2600 and NES) to assess whether Krypton should be crapped on. He closes by teasing the next episode... one of his most-requested reviews of all time.

"So here's a typical MySpace message."
Damn I feel old.
Also, James says that was a typicsl MySpace message for him and it begins with "i want ur babies". Lucky nerd... 😒
@@DanHarkless_Halloween_YTPs_etc lol
DanHarkless ﴾Halloween, theme parks, YTPs, & more﴿ I would’ve said the same thing :)
myspace isnt even that old. lol
@@jasonflicstein3170 Myspace is 17 years old.....that’s OLD.
strangely, superman 64 is more relevant than MySpace
Thats right!
haha
@OG Elbow God Something that doesnt exist
555th like
Oh
Anyone else notice the guy at 6:42 says "Hi Superman!" while you're playing as Clark Kent? He really is bad at hiding his identity in this game.
Maybe that guy is the Martian Manhunter.
Yo you right
COVER BLOWN
Maybe Clark forgot his glasses
Maybe it's just because he doesn't wear a mask
You never realise just how long you've been on the internet, until you see a video referencing "Myspace."
Lilith Valentine I wouldn’t mind MySpace making a comeback.
I wonder what Tom is up to nowadays. Hope he's well.
@@DONKEYKONG260 He's a photographer last I checked. I follow his page on Facebook. Beautiful photos
What's myspace, I'm still using AOL?
Smosh lol
06:42
Just realised he said hi superman!
To Clark Kent....
It's ok. Ever since this video was posted, every 1-2 weeks someone realizes it.
Nate He's the only smart man in Metropolis. I guess those glasses don't work on everybody.
Lol reminds me of the one SNL skit where everyone knew who Clark was Superman
Me to Nate
@@darkomatterus309 absolutely
3:05 - cutest Statue of Liberty I ever seen in my life
+Zel G. The statue of liberty looks like an anime girl. I wish this had carried on in the superman lore.
〈The Nickname〉
I'd ship that.
Clark X Liberty
My new OTP
Reminds me of the Statue of Liberty in Lego Marvel Superheroes that winks at you.
Yeah its adorable!
10:17 AVGN did the “show all the comments requesting this video” thing way before it was popular
Always a trailblazer
AVGN did everything before it was popular
Nah, that was already popular, you were just too young to know about it...
@@jnnx refer me to one example that predates this one
@@jnnx Yes. Please provide evidence.
This episode was actually much funnier than I remember it being, especially the part about stocks.
i agree same looking back at it xD
i actually enjoy it more than super 64
The moment where he tries to imitate the stairs music is pure ASMR Funni-ness Lol..
*wall street kid has entered the chat*
My favorite part is how he's so baffled about it he apparently loses control of his bowels, it was just too much for him to handle
Would you believe that Superman for the 2600 won Game of the year in 1980? Man, people had strange expectations back then.
+martin0499 It seems like a good game for its time, but it naturally has jack diddly fuck on the games of today.
+martin0499 did the original DOOM ever win a game of the year award? it has to have to right? hell it's basically the greatx10 grandfather of FPS games
The Wiki says that Doom has won a GOTY award in 1995 (PS1 version) and Doom 3 also had one in 2004.
It probably was really cool for the time. Especially considering how simplistic Atari games were.
+Jon Kelley no, it sucked at the time as well. I remember it (not so) fondly....
''it's a bird
it's a plane
no IT'S A SHITTY GAME''
best AVGN line ever
+zdunas23 Lol, So true.
That just made my day
fuck this game watch it go I like that
My favourite is "now THATS assy"
Totally agree!
The statue of liberty is a waifu?!
Yes
“Kal-El san!”
I saw that and thought, "ok this game was probably made originally as a not Superman Japanese game before localization. And; With this art direction, The Statue of Liberty would be an awesome and caring waifu.
Always has been
Danny Tas Was thinking the same
"It's a bird, it's a plane, no, it's a shitty game." xD
That's the cutest Statue of Liberty I've ever seen, btw.
3:05
Is it just me, or is the Statue of Liberty freaking ADORABLE?
Never mind, just scrolled down to read the rest of the comments, which are all the same exact thing. XD
Starlight Witch *Sutachu obu Ribatii
KAWAIIIIIII!!!!!
IKR IT ALMOST LOOKS LIKE THAT GIRL FROM A ANIME NAME STAR OR SOMTHING
Japanese Zeros Dat's NOT ANIME!!!!
On top of the Statue of Liberty talking, it's an anime chibi version.
i love the stock market joke
Its like "Quicksilver"...a Bicycle movie with Stock market throw backs....
I laughed so hard that I had to grip my chest in joyful pain!
8:41
I wish modern game designers would learn from that bit
3:02
The Statue Of Chiberty: In kawaii we trust!!!
its so fucking cute
LOL
Rei Suzukawa why are you a character from mankistu happening
Ethan
I like how you recognized the character of a hentai and you were able to then name said hentai
The Japanese version of Superman for NES actually has the Superman-theme!
My guess is that the NES Superman game was another game that they just reskinned and changed a little bit and slapped the name Superman on it.
@@philodox7599 maybe
holy crap that statue of liberty is adorable
Well, you too, sir.
the statue of liberty immediately reminded me of someone from lucky star. BTW, I like your avatar.
***** No shit sherlock
AnimeMafiaReviews
Oh mah gerd, Attack on Titan.
I demand a reskin if it, now!
7:47 I CAN'T STOP LAUGHING XD
Ti ti ti titii ti ti ti ti ti titiiii
Claudio Fermani ok
tus
OHHH and that music
One of the funnies moments in the video lmao.
The "translation" is funny
It's been locked, it's been locked
Just noticed that at 6:42 that pedestrian says "Hi Superman!" to Clark Kent :v
+SpudgenGames LOL that actually makes sense!
They finally found out.
He knows!!!
Well, he's not wrong.
Is everyone just going to glaze over the fact that they made the Statue of Liberty look like an anime character?
I feel like the guy who made the statue of liberty R34 animation took that character as inspiration...
honestly everyone kinda looks like a chibi anime character lol
Yes
Surprised others thought of that
The Statue of Liberty does look like the Statue of Liberty from Kid Dracula.
When i was a kid, i was obsessed with the stock market
I feel you
Underrated comment right here
10:17
“So here’s a typical MySpace message”
Something I thought I would never hear in 2019.
Yeah I know the this came out 10-11 years ago but it’s still surprising to hear
6:44
How Did That Guy Know That Clark Kent Is Superman?
+Lucas Cunningham Technically, he's still in Superman costume, but the game changed him to Clark Kent because his Super Power meter was low....
Maybe he has some common sense (unlike anyone else in comics) and thought "Hey, what would this guy look like without the glasses?"
+Lucas Cunningham Could the Nerd review Adventure Time?
Kanoy Gerardo
*Gasps*
*trembles*
Don't you know what happens when you say that in word in front of a character from the Ace Attorney series? you almost gave me a panic attack!
Winston Payne Mr. Payne, will you please help me to write a script?
7:52 10 hour version please
Uhh... Nice Megumin pfp...
9:01 The original James & Mike Monday's.
NSPcrazY112 They're playing Simon's Quest.
Today I learned the Statue of Liberty is actually a QT anime girl (3:07).
"It's a bird, It's a plane, no, It's a shitty game!" ~AVGN 2010
Well, actually it was 2008.
Screw that
Statue of Liberty is so moe~
wow myspace. those were the days
I wonder what his myspace theme was.
Nerd freaking out about Superman needing to buy a subway ticket is honestly one of my favorite moments in AVGN.
The way he's doing the stair music is hilarious.
Watch one video, and you can't fucking stop watching them!
One of the requests is just:
"Superman 64
that game blows"
Just cracks me up. That's all you need to say, too
Can we take a moment to notice that a citizen calls Clark superman and about 6:42
7:35
4:37 Hey, now, Blaster Master does that and that's one hell of a game
The guy at 6:41 is the only person in Metropolis that's not a fucking idiot. He sees Clark Kent and says "Oh hi Superman", kinda like saying that he's not fooling him just by wearing glasses.
Maybe he was Tommy Wiseau:)
Ech Echech
That would mean Superman is a doggie. Future plot twist?
Everything is a twist, when Tommy Wiseau is involved ;)
CHEEEP CHEEP CHEEP CHEEP CHEEP CHEEEEEP
Ghost81
What a story Mark. Any way how's your sex life?
3:03 Am I the only one who was surprised by anime Statue of Liberty?
You're definitely not alone.
A talking chibi statue of liberty isn't something we expect to see on a DC licensed game. hahahah
I know right? I was waiting for it to start shooting Kamehameha Waves.
Looks like the game was made in Japan, with lots of chibis and how the characters move.
I didn't know Mike wrote this episode. Along with James acting performance this is one of my favorites
“Oh my God, somebody call an exorcist.”
Statue of Liberty is my new waifu
No, mai waifu!
ya remember when the statue of Liberty Talked to Superman in the comics? Ya me neither! lol
Owen Martinelli
Mt. Rushmore is my husbando(s)
Rountree is right
Imagine if she was human size and you could perform the F on her.
The funniest thing is that the Japanese version of this game has the movies soundtrack in 8-bit for the game, while we get some shitty replacement.
6:16
I’m watching this in 2021 and well, let’s just say Spider-Man PS4 didn’t exactly let that joke age well.
Still watching AVGN after discovering him a few years ago. Really makes my days better when I watch these old episodes especially.
Please be my guardian angel, Liberty-chan!
I can't take Superman seriously here, since he looks like Superboy.
A Superboy bobble head that got mangled.
More like Soupah Man from Akira Toriyama
LOL really? I can take him seriously completely as he can look cute AND be a strong man.
@@diegoantoniofrias9309 The art-style still looks ok, no idea on why you guys are knocking it down as Akira Toriyama's artwork is amazingly well done!
3:15
Why statue of liberty is japanese chibi is better question my friend
The game was made by Japanese people
6:18, Spider-Man actually takes the subway in Spider-Man 2018.
7:52
*dies of laughing* XD
+SuchAWilma64 amazing I cryyy of laugh
He sounds like Eric Cartman from South Park
DIH dih DIH dih DIH dih DIH dih DIH dih DIH dih DIH dih DIH dih DIH dih DIH dih
Let's be honest, there will never be a good SUPERMAN game, "Injustice: Gods Among Us" is a fighting game with Superman in it. But a good standalone will more than likely never see the light of day.
ShinbrigTV Well you're sort of wrong about that, as the Superman arcade game was very good at least. It'll probably be the only ever decent one ever made though.
I thought Man of Steel for iOS was pretty good.
ShinbrigTV What about Superman on Sega Genesis? (from the creators of Batman NES, no less)
I think if the guys that made the Batman: Arkham games decide to do a Superman game, only then will it be good.
Sean Yap not even them could make a good Superman game. Minions woul have to do damage in game, but then woulndt have any comic sense and logic mere minions doing damage to Superman. In Batman objects can work as obstacles, a wall, a destroyed bridge, debris, mutant plant, elevated places... But with Superman: fuck all those obstacles. Superman is acceptable in a fighting game, not an adventure game.
Ps: In God of War games Kratos ended being all that powerful, so how the made logical that minions could hurt him? Taking away his strenght in GOW 2 and 3.
Years later andnit turned out that the NES Superman game is ten times better than Superman 64.
The stock market rant will always be my favorite part of this review.
It WAS relevant when the game was made. The 1987 stock market crash was historic.
Oh if only he knew how many specifically political games would come out...
I'm not sure which is older, Superman 64, or Myspace.
+CuddlezFurLucifer MySpace: 2003, Superman 64: 1999.
It was a joke cx, But Thanks.
+CuddlezFurLucifer
Superman came out in '64
Superman 64 came out in 1999. Myspace was around since 2003
6:45 - "Hi, Superman!" Lol But he's Clark Kent right there!
10:07 "What is it about Superman that spells shit"
Batman Vs Superman
I noticed that one person who gave a request list finally got his wish of the Nerd reviewing Mortal Kombat Mythologies.
Better late than never, I guess.
Like if u want mike and avgn to play conkers bad fur day
CronaWings That would be awesome to see them play games made by Rare! :D
0:56 best Avgn line ever
Got any news?
I know nothing at all.
+Internet Anarchist™ Hey! What are you doing?
SIQ MBQ GAYD AMB YYA ABHM
Make a note of these passwords!
Pokemon Go.
+Spider-Man noted
6:43 guy says Hi Superman, to Clark Kent
MistahBroccoli At 6:42 that pedestrian says "Hi Superman!" to Clark Kent.
+PubliusAfricanus He already said that.
Meavy Hetal Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

This should be an epic quote: "It's a bird, It's a plane, IT'S SONIC '06! RUN!"
My thoughts :D
What a coincidence, I just got through watching a TheRetroReplay review of Sonic '06
sonic 06 is good
Anikin Govannon Says the guy with the atari avatar
i just like atari a lot
10:00 classic avgn right there. Simple yet daring.
It’s also a callback to the beginning of the video when he says the Atari game makes you want to throw it out the window.
That intro was perfect, is it a bird is it a plane no its a shity game!👌👍☝
Holey shit thanks for the likes!❤️
Oh my god when he said MySpace I started laughing so hard. That seriously dated this video. Heck many people don't even remember what MySpace was.
Bob Lechero Are you denying that myspace is a website that very few people still use?
***** you stupid...
***** The video itself was made in 08'
"I've never heard of a game where you press down to enter doors!"
-->Cave Story
Superman has so many good stories in the comics. It's hard to understand why can't they make a good game. Many people wish they made an open world game for him, but I believe a God of War style would be perfect!
+David Damasceno I've heard that there were plans to make an open world Superman game, but it was canned. At least we have the Batman: Arkham series.
+David Damasceno Some might believe it's the Superman Curse.
***** I used to think like that, but there are plenty of ways to get around this issue. Is he too powerful? Well, then make him less powerful, like in the New 52 Action Comics series by Grant Morrison (1 to 18, awesome reading!). Also, they could just make bigger challenges, present you with new and creative ways to use his powers. I mean, with good game design it is possible.
Fun fact: this was the last episode that was fully filmed at James old apartment.
ok at 3:03 am i the only one who realized the statue of liberty is in chibi form
7:52
+Guy Guyson Your profile pic is the perfect reaction to that. lol
The DC game arc (this, Superman 64, and the two Batman episodes) are like my favorite AVGN episodes of all time.
8:41 It predicted the 2008 recession?!?!?😱😱
6:43
I just noticed that character said "Hi, Superman" to Clark Kent
Pass the ketchup
ok
Dury Zaragosa-Camacho Why do i feel violated?
yup good job you get a sticker
It's weird how these civilians know how he is superman.
11:12 This guy predicted AVGN Episode: 138!
Yooka 137 actually.
Yooka, are you dumb? 11:25
Dylan MacDonald Did you search the episode? He means the Mortal Kombat Mythology video
Wtf? He didn't predicted anything. He suggested top 5 bad games to james.
The statue of liberty is an anime girl.
Why can't our liberty statue be so kawaii??
Cave Story also uses the down button to enter doors BUT THAT WAS A FUCKING AWESOME GAME
It also has good reason to have down be the door button. Would you like to exit a room every time you tried to shoot something above you?
As did Kirby's Epic Yarn. Another great game, although it's WAY too easy.
6:55
I think Superman just talked to Jon Snow.
"i dont know any game that uses down to go through a door" im guessing this episode came out before cave story
all_late_gamer56 Or it didn't and he just, you know, never played it.
Hotel Mario he disses going up to go down
Blaster master...
I was thinking the same thing but... you did it 4 years before me.
7:52
LOL
It´s funny that Superman for the Atari 2600 was included on the Superman´s 75th anniversary animated short.
"Here's a typical MySpace message*
I want ur babies!!!
Well that escalated quickly
9:17 if only you knew how bad things really are.
7:34 haven’t you seen the MOVIE SUPERMAN
I need to figure out where he used to live and search that tree, there's probably half of the NES library in there lol
Of shitty games..lol
....that suck ass.
He'd rather have a buffalo
Ta0 Software take a diarrhoea dump in his ear
Of a roadkill skunk and down it with beer!
3:08 I just find how James seems furious over this small detail absolutely hysterical.
7:52 "and that music......." Lmao. It so reminds me of "The Cable Guy" fight scene.
7:39. What a fantastic line.
I like how statue of liberty in NES Superman looks like anime character.
"Ah yes the stock market."
"Stocks?"
"S T O N K S"
"Um........What"
7:29 - Zelda II and its infamous "I am error" was also released that year.
the statue of liberty is super kawaii
super kawaii statue of liberty
9:22 - The way he says "STOCKS?!" XD
10:17
"So, here's a typical MySpace message."
OH GOD, I FEEL SO OLD.
9:59
I'm never fucking playing this game in my LIFE (Voice deepens)!
*Throws game out window, but magically flies back inside*
(*voice gets higher*) FYIFE!
Wow the avgn really knows how to make a great cliffhanger for his reviews
That Statue of liberty looks like something out of Lucky Star.
I like how James says Re-view, like he's viewing something for the 2nd time
kinda hard to review a game that he hasn't seen once, right?
of course it's AT LEAST the second time he takes a look at something- that's what reviewing means- taking another look at something (typically focusing on more aspects and adressing details).
*facepalms*
Miss Liberty 2 Moe 4 me
Dat name and dat avatar.
princess ruto is so much cooler than zelda
