This has been just a tip of the iceberg of the utter nightmare that has been mobile preservation. Since my childhood I’ve lost two Interactive Buddy mobile games, 3 aquarium games, and a fun shark game all because they were locked to the App Store, and this is an issue that has persists to this day. Just recently the latest spinoff of the Hungry Shark games, Hungry Shark Primal, got delisted after Ubisoft announced they were shutting down the game’s developer. This game was released on *April 21st, 2023* and was shut down on *September 14th, 2023*. I was sad about FGOL’s shutdown, but to basically wipe away a game’s existence within less than 5 months is criminal, I have zero clue why no one seems to be doing anything about this catastrophe or how the mobile industry is able to sustain itself with practices like this.
6:20 Yeah the game will still count as lost media as despite having screenshots and personal accounts of playing the game, the game itself is not publicly playable in any form. Good video btw!
If your talking about it not being Numbered as a entry in the M&L Series, it’s probably because the Paper Mario Fanbase thought it was a Paper Mario Game instead of a M&L Game
Off topic but... many Nintendo Game Seminar games released before 2007 or 2008 are pretty much lost media. Aside from some images scattered on Japanese blogs/websites, the gameplay description and such, no gameplay footage is found at all.
I kinda hope an indie developer takes up the role and makes a spiritual successor like Bug Fables is for Paper Mario or Pizza Tower is for Wario Land. I’d be afraid Nintendo would goof it up since Alphadream is gone, but it still would be cool for a new one to happen.
Maybe we should ask Nick Robinson. He is someone who pushed all boundaries to the extreme and finds out all the nieche stuff which shouldve been lost decades ago.
thank you for watching! more hopefully consistent uploads soon!

Thanks!
I like how Paper Jam isn't even considered a numbered entry
You’re right LMAOO
If your talking about it not being Numbered as a entry in the M&L Series, it’s probably because the Paper Mario Fanbase thought it was a Paper Mario Game instead of a M&L Game
Because Is not
I don't think even Paper Jam knows what it is
I love that game, even if it's the worst
sigh... maybe it has an unlockable partners in time remake....
Very nice video! This game does look like Alphadream made it, and a bit arcade-y, but fun too!
Thanks and I agree!
Every time you said Mob Games, all I could think about was the poppy playtime people💀
WAIT THATS WHY IT SOUNDS FAMILIAR 😭😭
bold of you to put luigi in the thumbnail of a video about lost media
lost media has got to be my favorite gender.
REAL
Same
THERE ARE ONLY 2 GENDERS

Nice video. I hope someday Nintendo makes another mario and luigi game.
Thank you and I agree!
I feel like they’d ruin it

@@GoofiestGooberofAll yeah I feel like someone would have to do really well to capture the feel of the Mario and Luigi games without the titular bros.
@@GoofiestGooberofAllThere’s an upcoming one called Tara & Vyn. You can see some progress on the Mario and Luigi subreddit.
Excellent video as always!
thank you!!!
More Alphadream content!!! Yay!!!!
If i had to guess, the game plays similarly to Tetris DS's catch game mode
Did you see that survey that Nintendo was sending out? There may be hope
Yup, making a video on that eventually
Man the M&L series were my favorite mario series
AlphaDream's RETURNED Media...
more like flash mob cast 😨😨
REFERENCE
i think old 3g for these ancient phones is dead now in japan(like it is in the us).
I need mario and luigi to return
Reviving Humans? Wha-
This made me sad 😢
The lost media game...

Thank you!!
LOST MEDIA 😰😰😰😰

Holy shmokes

X-Verse does NOT sound good
You know what else is difficult to find more info about, but also has to do with squares?
An old PC game called Square Resort.
