14:30 reminds me of when I wanted to run from my childhood. My father abused me as a boy and I played this game very often around that time. The harrier picking up speed and the music with its hopeful yearn just always made me wish as a boy to run with him too
Sorry to hear that you went through that man. I'm glad this game helped you get through that period of your life, and I hope you're doing much better nowadays.
at 9:50 its hilarious how the tiger boss runs back and forth but *slides* towards you. lol. They didnt want to make the extra frames of animation. This has always cracked me up.
+CarozQH I got this at launch. I was disappointed that it wasn't as advanced as Space Harrier in the arcade, but it was a HUGE step up from Space Harrier on the Sega Master System, so I was pretty happy with it. Plus the music is pretty awesome. Honestly, I don't know why people bash this game so much today.
Even if we're talking just about the home market, The Amiga and Atari ST were released 5 years prior, the X68000 nearly 2 years before and all of them are 68000 based systems with lots of games. The Intellivision also had a 16 bit CPU but... I guess that's not what you meant. "bits" say absolutely nothing about a system's power. Never said. It was all a marketing device. People should have learned this by now.
This was my first game I got for the Genesis in 1989. I actually bought it a few months before Christmas so I'd have something to play besides Alterer Beast. On the fight with Dark Harrier you can actually stay still when he turns into a fireball and it would actually not hit you because you'd would be in the eye of his spin. Always thought that was funny.
This was a launch title for SEGA Genesis. It, along with Last Battle, Altered Beast, Tommy La Russa Baseball and Super Thunder Blade were the first titles I owned for my fav Console of all time, SEGA Genesis. Back then, the lack of sprite flicker and little slow-down and color palette going over 30 colors at once, meant something. What a power house.
IDK why some people claim that the main tune for this game isn't as good as the theme for the first game. I think it does have so much personallity and a heroic inspirational lemotif. This was my first experience with Space Harrier ever, when I had a Super Mega Drive 3, which was a huge hit here in Brazil.
That Medusa boss used to freak me out, how it would slink towards you with a metallic cold face, then it would freaking warp into a serpent when it was closest to the camera. The otherworldy music didn't help matters.
It WAS high tech. You think about the games we're so fond of now and try to imagine them 30 years later. Wow, today's games don't seem so advanced now do they?
@@MrJoshuaSalway1990 it is not that but this game is a major tuned down in comparison to Space Harrier on arcade. In fact its graphic is at best mediocre among genesis games.
If you combine Descent and Doom, this is your ultimate result. I know this game preceded both. I was just making an observation. Thanks for the upload.
Its like He-Man in the Future fighting Evil Aliens, Monsters, Beast's, Evil Spirits, Warlocks Demons, and more ahaha i love it. This was my first Console game.
I don’t know how i ended up with this game but i played it all the time and eventually was able to beat it without dying. People couldn’t understand how i was able to do it but just like anything else, it’s just repetitive patterns. Dodging all becomes the same repetitive patterns as well and you never get hit. This is a great game.
It's not a port Mad-Matt, it's an original game made for the Mega Drive which was also one of its two launch titles in Japan (the other one being Super Thunder Blade). It was ported later on to several computers of the era such as the C64, Atari ST or Amiga. The Mega Drive version remains the best. And, even if it wasn't as stunning in 1988 as the first Space Harrier was in 1985 (partly due to obvious differences between an arcade board - especially a Sega one - and a mainstream home console), it's still a good third-person rail shooter with trippy universe, visuals & music are just fantastic! (soundtrack by Tokuhiko Uwabo a.k.a. Bo)
There's a Boss rush at the end if you lost to any of the 12 bosses in the game and must face the bosses you lost against again before you can face the final boss Me: BRUTAL! If you lose to any of the 12 bosses in the game they task you with having a re-match In the end with the bosses you lost against before you can face the final boss.
Space Harrier II never touched the original in terms of fun-factor, soundtrack, and overall coolness, but it was still a fun enough game that made some pretty good use of the color palette; I especially liked the pink and purple in the second bonus stage (15:31). Nice play-through, and thanks for the upload!
Opinions go by what you grew up on, not everyone shares those sentiments though. I like the Genesis, have many, many games for it, but to me it is not the best console of all time. That goes to the SNES and the Saturn, one console from each of the big 2 of the time (NEC/Hudson's PCE was pretty big in Japan, outselling the MD, but in the US, it barely was able to compete with Nintendo and Sega). I know the Saturn was released to compete with Nintendo and Sony, but I'm going by the big two of the 16 bit console wars, and not by era. That's not to say the Genesis/MD wasn't an excellent console, it literally is a great console, with some fantastic games for it. But in the US, far too many Amiga titles got released for that thing, as well as western made titles (there are exceptions to this rule, Shiny had 2 great Earthworm Jim games, and Virgin had some pretty nice Disney game fare). Would've liked to have seen more original content, less Amiga ports. No offense to Amiga fans, I just never liked that PC.
I always loved the Original Space Harrier, but the game didn't get better with Space Harrier 2 or the 3D version for the SMS. Surprisingly, the 32X's version was the closest to the Arcade version.
I got my Sega Genesis Christmas of '89 with Altered Beast (pack-in), Space Harrier II, Ghouls n' Ghosts, and Phantasy Star II when my parents could find it. That was an amazing Christmas that was finally topped by Christmas of 1991. That's the day I got my Snes and my copy of Sonic The Hedgehog. My friends and I had a super 16-bit showdown thaf entire vacation. In case you're all wondering...the Genesis reigned supreme as the best 16-bitter available at the time (minus the AES).
tyron is spot on I prefer the original Space harrier for Sega. I loved the original space harrier sitdown kiosk arcade game. they had it at the OLD chucky cheese's in the glory days of circa 1988-92. Then all our CCs closed and reopened to just ticket spitting games, no old arcade or pinball. ahhhh the old arcades 1981-1984 when almost every suburb had at least one arcade.
I remember playing this to death when I got my Genesis. The bosses were wild and there was no thematic consistency to any of them, but I loved it. Thanks for the upload.
How could the Genesis have done this, but not be able to do the same kind of 3D scrolling that I read was the deal breaker for why Sega never got to do their own versions of the Super Star Wars games?
5:53 LMAO DOM From Gundam? LOL How they sneak this image by without copyright ahhahaha. Now he is fighting Zion from Gundam Lol. this game is too much.
Space harrier always hurt my brain. Is that a gun or a 10 guage cannon and how the heck does he fly? If he can fly why run? And If he can fly why does he need the platform?
This was my go to game at the arcade / pizza parlor / mini golf joint. One $ quarter done! Also had a Sega genesis too just to play this and a few others. but lost all interest as soon as I got a PC.
I wish someone would make a remake of this game for a more powerful platform, maybe on the arcade original's engine. It's just painful to play it in such a a slow form when we're able to do it right nowadays.
+Automatik By using the Mega Drive shadow/highlight hardware feature. This allows various neat things such as transparent shadows like here in Space Harrier 2 or this can also be used to increase the amount of onscreen colors (as seen in Ecco the Dolphin 2 for instance). Another way to do transparency on Mega Drive is via mid-screen palette updates. This is what the Sonic games do to achieve transparent water during the underwater sections.
@Automatik It looks great for sure but in some cases dithering or flickering-based transparency work well too. Mazin Saga for instance has some neat dithering-based assets during the second stage and during the second boss fight.
Picked up Sega Ages Space Harrier for Nintendo Switch. Best version so far running at 60 fps! Still a great game all these years later! Going to pick up Virtua Racing as it's 60fps as well. They added a Grand Prix mode as well.
Oddly Space Harrier on the Master System captures the feel of the arcade amazingly well. Space Harrier 3D is a darker but highly creative SH game only let down by its frame rate due to the 3D. Space Harrier 2's stages don't feel distinct as the original did. In SH every stage felt distinct.
A game that as soon as the action starts shows up that the Mega Drive was piss poor in the sound department as the music drops channels to accompany the sound fx. And that title music wtf lol what an embarrassment it sounds like a cat walking along a piano. I love the arcade original but this version is laughable even the master system version was better than this.
For as much as I loved the original I just couldn't get into this one. The sound effects and music actually sound inferior to the Master System version.
You know when I heard Genesis I expected something good out of this game’s soundtracks but instead I hear country music in Space Harrier 2. Some sequel this turned out to be! Am I right guys?
If you're talking about the instruments used, I can somewhat agree, but if you're talking about Genesis sound as a whole, that'll be a hard disagree for me.
This is no Space Harrier. What the heck hapened to the music score? Why didn't they port true Space Harrier 1 on the MD? This is sonic garbage. Some amateur did the sound track on this. It highlights the biggest problem of the MD: the FM chip. It was a nasty beast to tame. Nobody succeeded well in that, even Sega strugled. Take Sonic 1/2, they were outclassed by the Game Gear/Master System OST. Here it is even worse. Pain to the ears....

alex ojideagu
But as a console game in the same year as Super mario bros 3.
CarozQH Well sure as a console. But people were already used to graphics like this in arcades. But compared to the NES and 8bit computers yes.
+CarozQH Blew my mind when i got the game in 1996, This game amazed me as a young tike.

If Space Harrier was in Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing, that 'glider' from the bonus stage would've been his vehicle to race with (7:04-8:00)
This game always made me feel so crazy. It was such a new perspective. Heck, even 'Bayou Billy' had a certain feel with it being a FPS/sidescroller
This game must have been amazing in 1988, being one of the first 16-bit games.
Technically NEC PC engine(Turbo Grafix 16) was the first.
Sir Rowell *"one of* the first"
@ShogunX11 The Turbo-Grafix 16 wasn't a true 16-bit console.
You don't know this game because you were born many years after it was released.
Even if we're talking just about the home market, The Amiga and Atari ST were released 5 years prior, the X68000 nearly 2 years before and all of them are 68000 based systems with lots of games.
The Intellivision also had a 16 bit CPU but... I guess that's not what you meant.

And the Last Battle is actually Fist of the Northstar II
@Joe Johnson yes it was. look it up.
@@ShogunX11actually it was called “Last Battle” here in the states. It was one of the first six launch titles.

I think it does have so much personallity and a heroic inspirational lemotif. This was my first experience with Space Harrier ever, when I had a Super Mega Drive 3, which was a huge hit here in Brazil.
I grew up instead on the first Space Harrier, and my opinion is the opposite! 😄🤔
I came here to check if the title screen music was correct, I thought my cart was broken
That Medusa boss used to freak me out, how it would slink towards you with a metallic cold face, then it would freaking warp into a serpent when it was closest to the camera. The otherworldy music didn't help matters.

Planet Harriers on Naomi wasn't bad
Planet Harriers appears to be like what G-LOC was for After Burner. Revised Gameplay that is different from the original (Space Harrier).
youre 100% right
same engine
I personally believe Space Harrier 3D, if it were remade using the arcade engine, could be amazing. It has some very creative enemy designs.
I got my Sega Genesis Christmas of '89 with Altered Beast (pack-in), Space Harrier II, Ghouls n' Ghosts, and Phantasy Star II when my parents could find it.

he runs so that his feet/legs do not scratch on the floor. and the platform is just an upgrade for flying.
