Ever since the Expanded Universe took off in the early '90s, pretty much nobody involved in the franchise questioned the fact that Luke established a Jedi Academy on Yavin IV (never mentioned in the movies) and that the center of the galaxy was on a megapolis-like planet Coruscant (long before it first appeared in any of the movies).

Played this one to death as a kid. One of my fonder gaming memories was randomly finding the obtuse secret that let you play the early levels with the lightsaber.
@@Breakit689 It has something to do with playing the Darth Vader fight through the level select, then doing a new game and it automatically gives you the lightsaber at the start.
@@Breakit689 Yeah, it works but you end up being stuck at some point in the death star when you have to shoot at a distant interruptor to open a door, but with this secret (or rather glitch?) you can't switch back to blaster. Also, just before the part where vader throw you objects on bespins, if you use the force to slow time, vader will be in slow-mo for a bit. I know a few glitchs since I played this game too much as a kid because it was the only game I had for a while!
A game definitely worth having. I always wanted one as a kid, but by the end of my high school years. My mom gave me back a Gameboy collection she bought and in there was this masterpiece of a game
I had this game, I remember once I was able to use the lightsaber while on the Death-star level even though you don't unlock it until Hoth. One of the 1st Glitches I've seen in a videogame
can't believe how big you've grown in the past couple of months this year brother... glad to have been here when you had just under 1k subs... keep it up junko!
To this day, this is still the greatest Star Wars hidden gem. NO ONE talks about this game, and it's freakin' fantastic. Easily the best sidescroller we ever got, and it's even the entire OT for Christ's sake. So criminally underrated. Thank you for giving it the attention it deserves. BTW, I think I know why no one remembers this game. The three Star Wars games that came out before it on the GBA were the Attack of the Clones game, The New Droid Army, and Flight of the Falcon. If I got any of those, or god forbid all three, there's no way I would buy a Star Wars GBA game ever again. XD
This was one of my favorite games as a kid, and for me those graphics felt like I was actually in the movies. One of my saddest days as a kid was accidentally leaving this game and Pokémon Sapphire in a hotel room 😢
@@YungJunko I wish it had been flight of the Falcon instead, but alas I was left with the star wars game I could only get to the second level on. I hope you do talk about Flight of the Falcon just because I’m curious to see what comes after trying to fly the landspeeder at break neck speeds through Mos Eisley. Never got passed that level.
2:39 Seeing the close up of the battery on the GBA really triggered my PTSD from when I was 10. During that time I was left behind at my grandparent's place for two weeks. My grandparent's home was far from the nearest town and at that time, my only friend was my GBA. When the battery depleted, it felt like nothing was left in my world. My grandparents refused to go to town to buy new batteries and for two weeks that GBA wasn't playable. Had I gotten the GBA SP, the stay at their house would've felt different. I had nothing to do over there but learn the Quran and pray with them most of the time. There wasn't any kid who lives around the area. Man..., hated that place (Not my grandparents, love them. RIP, grandpa)
I remember owning this one and the new Droid army for my game boy advance SP and Junko you are bringing back some good memories honestly this is some good heartwarming content that I needed right now thank you.
I absolutely adored this game, absolutely no one talks about it but even still I love going back and revisiting it, it’s such a great game that brings back so many memories for me and it feels so good to go through the whole trilogy recreated as close as possible on the gba, and it’s a short and sweet game that’ll never get old. Also the graphics and animations are absolutely amazing
This is by far my favorite handheld Star Wars game. I played this thing so much when it first came out! Thanks for reminding me it exists so I can go play it again.
As a side note, I almost picked the wrong game as a kid. I had to choose between Pokemon Blue and Ep1 Racer for GBC. I chose Blue, and I'm so glad I did! I already loved Star Wars, and that was never going to change. But I don't know what I would have done if I hadn't discovered Pokemon when I did.
We live in blessed times to get so many junko videos. The video overall is great, as usual, but I want to give special appreciation for the sections filming real objects. I'm not sure if they have always looked this good, but the footage is super crisp, the focusing is just right, and the trash can lid in the background is a nice touch. 👌
You're being too hard on your family for not getting you this or the box set. I mean they got you a hyperscan for Pete's sake! If that's not love I don't know what is!
I remember fighting the rancor in my parents' car at night in a parking lot trying to get the car's interior lights to reflect just right to see the game boy advance screen. Good times.
wow we have a winner here, every time a channel show me a game that i didnt know befero (a good game) it earns my subscription. thank you for sharing this information
This is one of my most played games from my childhood, I really loved the unlockable gallery and the enemy rush mode you unlock at the very end. Working through every episode felt so satisfying, I remember my happiness at beating the Death Star run in episode IV for the first time.
Something about games on the GBA were just magical. I'm not normally a side scroller fan, wasn't before the GBA and wasn't after, but I played so many great side scrollers on the GBA that I have many incredibly fond memories of. The Spiderman GBA games for example were just amazing.
Loved this game. So underrated as I haven’t seen anyone speak about this one for decades. I still have my SP and the game cartridge when I was a kid. Amazing game!
I completely forgot about going through this game as a kid. The animation of the characters and the red blaster shots during the speeder and piloting scenes rekindled my memory of this game
The second the gameplay showed up on the screen, I realized that I owned this as a kid and had forgotten about it until now Thinking more of it I remember one of my favorite parts being when the Falcon shows up in the Death Star trench run because it looked so high quality. And I also remember doing the lightsaber smash attack a lot too
God, does this bring back nostalgia! I got this game on Gameboy Advance for Christmas one year and I played it soooo many times. I just couldn't get enough of it as a kid. And honestly, it still looks pretty good for a Gameboy Advance game! I'm glad someone remembered it and I hope one day it gets the recognition it deserves!
This game was soooo good!! My mom bought me this as a surprise and I immediately fell in love!! The music, the animations, and the progression were just so satisfying. I remember having a lot of trouble with the Endor Sequence. YungJunko even acknowledges it just drags on forever. I stopped playing my Gameboy Advance SP for some reason. I didn't pick it up for years. But I found it and turned it on again within the last year or so. Of course, Star Wars Trilogy: Apprentice of the Force was still inside the Gameboy. I booted it up, I was on Endor again, and I crushed it. I had no trouble anymore, I breezed through to the Death Star Throne room and completed the game. It felt good to finish something I started so long ago. I guess my gaming skills improved since I last played it. Thanks for the gift mom!!
what a treasure this game is. i distinctly remember the overwhelming feeling of gratification once you get to 'empire'. a slow burn but a worthwhile one. another banger video, my cup runeth over with junk(o)!
No one ever talks about this game, but it's so amazing! I've played it so many times over and remember being obsessed over the final boss fight. Sadly, I eventually figured out how to win effortlessly by spamming that spinning attack, but man did I love that game.
Almost 20 years ago I played the Tatooine section of the game, but got bored. I wish I had spent more time with it now that I see what I was missing with the Empire sections... wow. I will have to give it another try.
I recently found my old GBA after having not played it for at least a decade, and this game was still inside it. Certain levels are still surprisingly difficult.
A great game once you are past the more difficult jumps before Luke gets his force powers. I do agree that this is an overlooked game and deserves more love and recognition. Great review Junko! Bring on the Star Wars GBA games! DEW IT!
Thank you so much for making this video, I still think about that game to this day. Probably my favorite when I was just a lad playing my gba. I need to get a copy.
This game is a very important part of my childhood. It was the first game I ever played on the gba and I spent hours playing it. The music, the sound effects, the sprites, literally everything about this game is so nostalgic to me. Glad to say I still own it
This game took over my life when I got it! One of the best handheld Star Wars games I've ever played. I still go back every now and again and play the space Battle of Yavin and the Duel on Bespin just for fun or see how long I can survive the bonus mission. This video was pretty funny! I loved the "Father...BEEES!!" bit so much! Subscribed!
This game was the first game I played once the PSP got a full speed GBA emulator. It was unbelievable on two fronts. A great star wars game and a neat flawless emu for the best handheld at the time
This game and the Revenge of the Sith GBA game (and DS Port) are two of the best Star Wars games. Those old pixel games are masterpieces, but especially Revenge of the Sith!
This shipped the same day as the 2004 special editions and the original Battlefront, as you mentioned. And I got all of these (not at once but through the whole year). It was amazing and after enjoying the prequels up to then as a kid, these jump started my love of the OT. Something about recreating the scenes from the movies in this game and the battles in BF1 while watching the movies on the slick new DVDs and watching the behind the scenes videos… yeah this was a good year to be a kid.
The game I played the most on the GBA with episode 3. Those Star Wars games are probably the only reasons I played the GBA so much. Also, it was so hard towards the end.
This game was amazing to play as a kid! Despite it being a side-scroller, they invested a lot into how it looked and the mechanics of the game! The force abilities were insane and I loved being able to use the force in different ways. Sarlacc Pit level was the best imo
yesss I just discovered and played through this one just this year and it's so good. I love how flippy and stylish the combat gets toward the end of the game. those encounters get dumb hard and finding creative ways through them was my favorite part. so cool to see you talk about this one
i had this game as a child i did not many get games from my parrents (at that time) but that made this game even more wonderfull to me i played evrey level hundreds of time i know evrey section from the back of my head to this day and it feels amazing
Spent so much time on this game that I was obsessed with it. There were times I went back to play it and experiment with specific things, including a glitch where you can reply older levels using a lightsabre... Though this comes at the cost of problems where you can't actually switch back to the blaster, meaning you hit a soft lock when replaying the Leia escort mission at the bridge. I also found that it's surprisingly easy to whittle Boba Fett's HP using the slow down power then wailing a ton of blaster shots his way. So many ways to play the game.
I just picked this up on a whim earlier this year thinking it was a port of the Super Star Wars trilogy, only to be surprised that it wasn't. It's not bad at all and I love the animations and look of the game. Another fantastic Star Wars game video YungJunko!
I've waited so long for you to upload again, my wish came true! Thank you But I can relate that sometimes wishes don't come true and that definitely applies to gaming. When i was a child I would always want a certain game but I just couldn't get them sometimes, thankfully sometimes I did end up getting those games for Christmas or something like that but it was hard having to wait so long Heck it still happens, either I can't afford to buy a new game or I look at a random game as whatever and totally regret it later on and it ends up becoming rare
You want a star wars game that barely is ever talked about? It has to be the Movie battles 2 mod for star wars jedi academy! The one game that you can have lightsaber fights without hit stunning your enemy to death. It has every character from each movie, book, show. And you can also play as gunners, bounty hunters, Mandalorian, any character you have ever seen. And you can play them in multiplayer. Most fun I have ever had in any star wars game hands down. Would highly recommend if you call yourself a true starwars fan. Just look up movie battles 2 on youtube to check it out for yourself and pick the game up for 1$ on any key reselling site. Also has an easy install with one button to click and its done.
When I was like 14 we were in the city and stopped at an EB Games. I wasn't expecting to get anything since we didn't have alot of money but I just liked looking at all the games and stuff. My dad ended up buying me this game in secret from my mom because he knew I was really into Star Wars and had a GBA.

This game and the Revenge of the Sith GBA game (and DS Port) are two of the best Star Wars games. Those old pixel games are masterpieces, but especially Revenge of the Sith!
This was the game that I played so much, my dad took my game boy away... never got it back
Great review, never knew how cool this game was definitely gonna get it for my backlit gba
This shipped the same day as the 2004 special editions and the original Battlefront, as you mentioned. And I got all of these (not at once but through the whole year). It was amazing and after enjoying the prequels up to then as a kid, these jump started my love of the OT. Something about recreating the scenes from the movies in this game and the battles in BF1 while watching the movies on the slick new DVDs and watching the behind the scenes videos… yeah this was a good year to be a kid.
Super underrated Star Wars game
My boy Junk off the guwop
I had this game! the memories are flooding back!
The game I played the most on the GBA with episode 3. Those Star Wars games are probably the only reasons I played the GBA so much.
Also, it was so hard towards the end.
How have I not heard of this game back then ??? Maybe because, like you said, I had battlefront, but MAN does this gameplay looks fun !!!
I've been subbed for a few months, and I gotta say I love the sense of humor throughout the videos. Another bängêr of a release!
This game was amazing to play as a kid! Despite it being a side-scroller, they invested a lot into how it looked and the mechanics of the game! The force abilities were insane and I loved being able to use the force in different ways. Sarlacc Pit level was the best imo
yesss I just discovered and played through this one just this year and it's so good. I love how flippy and stylish the combat gets toward the end of the game. those encounters get dumb hard and finding creative ways through them was my favorite part. so cool to see you talk about this one
i had this game as a child i did not many get games from my parrents (at that time) but that made this game even more wonderfull to me i played evrey level hundreds of time i know evrey section from the back of my head to this day and it feels amazing
Nice video, this was one of my favorite games as a kid, wish I knew where my copy was now.
Spent so much time on this game that I was obsessed with it.
There were times I went back to play it and experiment with specific things, including a glitch where you can reply older levels using a lightsabre... Though this comes at the cost of problems where you can't actually switch back to the blaster, meaning you hit a soft lock when replaying the Leia escort mission at the bridge.
I also found that it's surprisingly easy to whittle Boba Fett's HP using the slow down power then wailing a ton of blaster shots his way. So many ways to play the game.
I was today years old when I discovered this game. I didn't know about this game AT ALL back in 2004. And it came out the same day as Battlefront 1.
I just picked this up on a whim earlier this year thinking it was a port of the Super Star Wars trilogy, only to be surprised that it wasn't. It's not bad at all and I love the animations and look of the game. Another fantastic Star Wars game video YungJunko!
I had no idea this existed, I’ll definitely give it a try!
I'm glad this got some recognition. I still have my original copy and play it from time to time
I've waited so long for you to upload again, my wish came true! Thank you
But I can relate that sometimes wishes don't come true and that definitely applies to gaming.
When i was a child I would always want a certain game but I just couldn't get them sometimes, thankfully sometimes I did end up getting those games for Christmas or something like that but it was hard having to wait so long
Heck it still happens, either I can't afford to buy a new game or I look at a random game as whatever and totally regret it later on and it ends up becoming rare
Well edited and entertaining. Good work subbed and adding to my collection
Dude what a throwback!!
You want a star wars game that barely is ever talked about? It has to be the Movie battles 2 mod for star wars jedi academy! The one game that you can have lightsaber fights without hit stunning your enemy to death. It has every character from each movie, book, show. And you can also play as gunners, bounty hunters, Mandalorian, any character you have ever seen. And you can play them in multiplayer. Most fun I have ever had in any star wars game hands down. Would highly recommend if you call yourself a true starwars fan. Just look up movie battles 2 on youtube to check it out for yourself and pick the game up for 1$ on any key reselling site. Also has an easy install with one button to click and its done.
When I was like 14 we were in the city and stopped at an EB Games. I wasn't expecting to get anything since we didn't have alot of money but I just liked looking at all the games and stuff. My dad ended up buying me this game in secret from my mom because he knew I was really into Star Wars and had a GBA.
I think Episode 3 on GBA is a real hidden gem. Solid beat ‘m up with some light RPG elements.
That game is wonderful. It's by the same team at Ubisoft I believe
I love you, Junko
