Japan has a weird thing for abbreviating "Psychokenesis" into "Psycho", not knowing it means Psychopath in English. Its the reason the game Psycho World was renamed Psychic World when Sega released it on the Master System.
See also: the Psychopath ability in Mario RPG, which IMO should have been localized as telepathy. I hope that if this game ever gets a translation patch, they include an optional patch to change the title screen to Psychic Dream.
Actually, I think the weird thing is the English language in this case, since it's used as a pejorative word. The word "psycho" comes from Greek (psykho), it means "soul" or "mental activity" and it has been used as a prefix for a long time in many languages, whereas in the English culture is a synonym for psychopath.
FYI The game's story is from the creator of Moon Remix RPG Adventure (and founder of Love-de-Lic), and Marino Nishizaki did the character illust for this game. If this game could've have been released in the west under the Dream Probe title, judging by the reviews and coverage, people would forget it. The music is composed by Michiko Naruke who would later do the music of the Wild Arms series. I remember playing this game on an SNES emulator on PSP back in the day. Edit: 4:08 This game got an english patch recently by Stardust Crusaders.
Oh, that's interesting about Michiko Naruke doing the music for this game. I love her stuff with Wild Arms, and even more I am so excited to see that she'll be composing for Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes.
I want a framed playthrough of this game hanging on a wall in my house. Like, just a screen with a full playthrough on a loop, like a moving painting, bombarding people with all that insane imagery. The only other game I've had that idea about is Monster Party.
Monster Party, where "party" means on the first level all the happy little trees in the background turn into bloody, zombie children heads and sometimes the boss is a bouncing fried shrimp
Monster Party's ending gave me my first remembered nightmare! The floating heads and how the kid was rotting away? Brrr. However, it was one of the games I remember the fondest.
I recently played through this one. He's right. You pretty much spam attacks the whole game. It doesn't take long to get fully powered if you get hit three times, either. Some of the passageways are frustratingly slow-going and overly repetitive, but overall I enjoyed this game more than some of the Valis games, so it's still worth a go.
It reminds me a SEGA Genesis game called "El Viento" which is kinda part of a trilogy, but this one is way more polished. Thanks for the recommendation, Drunk 👍🏼
The 90s anime vibes im getting from this is super strong! It's awesome! Getting Genocyber, LILY CAT, Robot Carnival, and Iria: Zeiram kinda things. Neat.
Snesdrunk, you make all games seem great. I love you for it, everything is (mostly) positive. Also loving the drunkfriend podcast, keep on keeping on, legend!
The final song that you put in this video is "Ave Maria", I only know this because it's from one of my favorite episodes of Cowboy Bebop. The developers made a great decision to include it in this game!
It's so weird to see people actually wondering about this song or not knowing it, lol. It's the anthem of the Virgin Mary, mother of Jesus, sung in Every single church in Latin America, or any country with catholic roots.
@@3xperiment8 Thanks for the information, however not every country has catholic roots, and not everyone worships. So, probably why I didn't know it's origin.
@@Venoix I figured. I just mentioned how it's surprising to me to know it's not a popular song elsewhere. Because it's so popular around here that I couldn't imagine. This song around here might be as popular as "Silent Night". Maybe I used the wrong word (weird). I should have said "strange", because I was just curious.
Thanks for sharing this game snes drunk! I picked it up when you mentioned it in another video and it is indeed amazing. The enemies are so weird and it has such a unique vibe and feel to it, I love it.
Them review scores were brutal....18/40? Yeesh! Always thought Famitsu gave pretty generous scores, reading about the various game scores throughout the years..but wow...18. Game doesn't look too bad to me...the OP fairy looks fun enough.
I started up this game recently on switch and thought it was an rpg from the title screen. I was taken off guard immediately upon opening the game but I think it kind of helped set the tone of all the crazy weird creativeness in it for me. I've only gotten through the second boss so far and had to look up what was going on with the plot. I expected to find a back of the cereal box lazy description to justify putting all of these cool ideas in, but I found this video and I actually really really love the plot. Really happy I found this and I am extremely appreciative of the lack of late game spoilers.
With a title like this i was expecting something like LSD dream simulator. But honestly the action platformer themes suits the name quite well, you can have basically any boss design you wanted!!
I absolutely love this game when I discovered it in the switch online catalog. It's not the best platformer, but the art style and music create incredibly unique vibes
This is one of those rare games that ended up more like an interactive work of art (or active wallpaper for your computer/tv) rather than a traditionally "good" "game". It can be appreciated as a work of art with the right mentality (i.e. focus on the visuals and sound and less of an interest in checking the usual boxes for a good video game). I might just keep a longplay of it on loop in the background if I'm feeling particularly creative for writing or drawing.
The stages and everything that appears in this game are distorted images of feelings and things passing through a common Japanese female high school student's mind. The fear for insects, the theme park, the subway, the cherry blossoms, etc... This is also why I love this game, it's very profound.
Remember how everyone in the 90's thought that Virtual Reality was going to be the wave of the future, and it just kinda petered out until like the last decade or so?
Just played through the game from Nintendo switch online and wow what an experience! Art style was absolutely crazy and the ost is on a whole different level. Definitely picked it up on a whim, but I’m so glad that I did :)
I love that you always point out how games should be appreciated on their own merits, and thus compared with similar level games in their respective genres. This game is upper middle of the road on the console for action platformers, but a good game nonetheless.
Having finally added this game to my collection after becoming a fan of the Valis games I can sayit's immediately apparent that the developers of the Valis games made this. The character sprites and animation especially. If you adjust your expectation to match the Valis games for the PC Engine you'll probably enjoy this game just fine. On top of that the art design in this game is pretty imaginative.
Ah, yes. Katerina Witt is synonymous with invulnerability. Those references were amusing and the review was great as usual. I remember seeing Psycho Dream in another SNESdrunk video, among other games. It always intrigued me and I had been meaning to look into it some more. I always liked the visuals of it. And this review here makes it sound like it might be fun for me. The difficulty balance may be an issue. But it looks and sounds great to me. It's a funny thing, especially with the SNES, how many of what are considered its best games do nothing for me, but some games that are not the best of their type appeal to me. For example, I didn't think I'd like the Super Famicom Mazinger Z game, but I tried it anyway. While it has issues, I had a lot of fun with it and am glad I gave it a shot. Same goes for Super Valis 4. So this one looks like I should give it a shot any way I can.
It looks like one of those games that you'll find at Toys R' Us or Target for $19.99 or less brand new then years later find used it at Funcoland for $79.
@@whosaidthat84 and you just had to rent something or else be bored the whole weekend. Not to mention the 50/50 chance of either enjoying or hating the game.
I bet a lot of you people didn't know this but maybe some have but when you kill a enemy and it gives you a yellow gem don't touch it until you see it turn it blue and this can be done with both characters. With the male character it gives you a bionic arm and if you would use a blue gem again it gives you a tri shot. With the female character she gets a gun which is kind of the same thing as the male character but you can also get a triple shot. It's a kind of cool secret feature but you can only get it and upgrade it once so it is kind of short-lived. Also yes I did take another comments idea but if you press L and X at the same time it will instantly kill you.
This just came out for Nintendo Switch Online. I tried it without ever having heard of it. I selected a character I couldn't see, there was a long opening credits sequence over the Tokyo skyline, and then I was on a road facing down bad watermelon slices. I guess I should have known.
I'm glad this hidden gem was released for Switch Online. But I'm not sure I've ever played a game where the gulf between the final boss and the rest of the game is so massive. I plowed through the rest of the game in like a half-hour. Then I was stuck on the final boss for more time than the rest of the game.
I like what you said about not expecting EVERY game to be as good as the best games in the genre. I feel that we have a lot of games out there with good stories that eneded in cliffhangers but we never got to find out what happens because people found one or two "not perfect" thing in the gameplay, so we never got the sequel that would give us closure. Such as: Star Wars the Force Unleashed, COD Ghosts, Megaman 64, just to name a few.
This brings back some memories. I used to play this on an emulator and show my friends because I thought it was really weird, and this one kid just freaked out when he saw the game screaming it was cursed and started crying about the music being too scary until his mom came to get him. A real wtf moment.
You've just sorted out my problem of never being able to get into one game when you said adjust your standards. I'm always looking for the perfect game and experience.
When I find out about a game like this, it's a reminder of how much I don't know about the SNES/Super Famicom library. I have a feeling I would've loved this game as a kid, but it's too bad the game reviewers shut it down so harshly. It wouldn't be the first time they were wrong though.
Agreed about the gameplay, it's not horrible but nothing amazing either. The appeal is in the crazy artwork and music. I really got into the artist who did the character models and story for this game, Nishizaki Marino, and found a bunch of his other work. I also made a video showing some of his other comics. If you search his name or go really far back on my channel you can find it.
I remember this game getting a mention on México’s official Nintendo magazine. But apparently the story was changed for western release? I remember reading that in the western version, the girl was connected to a machine that make “dreams real” (then they joked about the person having lots of nightmares after having a big dinner).
I wonder how many SFC games were scheduled/announced for SNES but ultimately didn’t make it here. That could be an interesting video if there are enough of them to cover. Anyway this crazy thing is a totally new one to me. Looks like it could be fun with expectations tempered, as you suggested.

Japan has a weird thing for abbreviating "Psychokenesis" into "Psycho", not knowing it means Psychopath in English. Its the reason the game Psycho World was renamed Psychic World when Sega released it on the Master System.
also the reason why M.Bison/Vega from street fighter and athena from king of fighters add the word psycho to their attacks.
See also: the Psychopath ability in Mario RPG, which IMO should have been localized as telepathy.

I believe so, but it sounds more like a rendition. It plays during the last boss.
Yeah, I noticed that too. Nice touch.
It is! This game is crazy! :o
Sure sounds like it's at least "sampling" it.

This game looks like Contra on acid 😂
Like Valis in acid i might add :p
I was just thinking some of the music reminds me a bit of Contra 3
Nowhere as good as Contra but yeah worth a playthrough.
I’m playing it I love it but it’s difficult.
more like Strider
Wow this one is so underground 😮 A true hidden gem
Gonna have to play it only the system don't know wich might be
Thank you, for bringing this underappreciated gem up to the surface!

''Inception'' is heavily influenced by an anime movie called ''Paprika''

Looking forward to playing this on the Switch next week!
One of my favorite SNES games, I own the cart and absolutely love it
I can't believe it was so underrated when it came out even in Japan, just sad

So glad that Psycho Dream has been given a second chance as a downloadable game for the Nintendo Switch.
the character design for Ryo is inspiring. I love the visuals in this game
The music that starts at 1:18 sounds like the music of "I feel fantastic" by Tara the Android!

Anyway this crazy thing is a totally new one to me. Looks like it could be fun with expectations tempered, as you suggested.
Just announced for Nintendo Switch Online. I'll have to check this out.
Now I can have a great Rest of my day, thanks,!
The music gives me some golden sun vibes
The final track is Schubert, commonly known as Ave Maria. He had different german lyrics about the lady of the lake.
Apparently, just added to Nintendo Switch Online catalog.
Okay, okay, I'll add this to my SNES Classic.
Music reminds me of bands like Tony Danza and old The Northern (CA). Love it.
lmao @ 3:20 the random Katarina Witt (German Ice figure skater) reference
