Holy shit, Thrillville and Thrillville Off The Rails were a huge part of my childhood, but never see anyone talk about them. Super excited for this. Edit: Ah, I now remember why no one talks about them lmao.
Bro I have no clue on what this is about, but no matter what he’s making a video about I know it’s gonna be interesting because of how great his commentary is, and his raw charisma. 10/10, god tier youtuber, I hope this channel gets mare recognition
This is a really great video,I like the part where you went in depth with the awkward mini games and IM SO LONLY PLEASE,anyway another instant classic.
I faintly remember playing this game in daycare back when I was in elementary school. Me and the other kids would practically speedrun Bandito Chinchilla
BUMBLES YOU FUCKING LEGEND!!! I have not heard of Thrillville since I played it as a child. You literally fired a 50 caliber round of nostalgia through my head and I couldn’t be happier. I’m not even 2 minutes in yet
Dude, the Wii version of this WAS MY CHILDHOOD! I’m so glad it’s now getting the good representation it deserves other than being a “RCT Knockoff” Edit: Yeah, looking back the game is shallow but 6 year old me still ate it up lol
I'm surprised there was no joke or reference to how the professor's design is piece for piece an exact ripoff of Doc Brown from Back to the Future 2, down to the white slicked back hair, the bright shirt under a white labcoat and a quirky tie
I also got off the Rails when I was trying to get the original game. Man, everything you said about it being a thing, that just, stopped, sure are true. All of it. painfully so. Kinda like Viva Pinata!
My sister and I had this game on our Wii when we were kids, and I remember having a lot of fun with it. We also had Rollercoaster Tycoon 3, which I remember a lot less of. We were certainly kids.
Dude! I had Off The Rails when I was a kid! Course I was a twit who had no idea how to run a theme park so I couldn't really progress after halfway through, but I still loved putting coasters together, playing the minigames, seeing the puke all over the floors, and every single customer complaining about the lack of restrooms that I simply refused to build.
Kind of surprised that you caught the Bubble Bobble ripoff but didn't notice that Vendor Tender was just Puzzle Bobble except someone forgot to turn on the park's gravity so things just fall...up.
didnt realize frontier made ANOTHER roller coaster builder game series, only knew of RCT3 and planet coaster (and planet zoo but thats not a roller coaster builder and is technically part of the same series of planet coaster)
I remember this game back on the ps2 and I remember learning about cheat codes. Back when they actually made this little books about in-game cheat codes. And one of them was for Thrillville Off the Rails that if you just put in an input at the main starting gate, you get like...a million cash right there. And could spam it.
The more and more I have gotten into the NMH series in the past months I see the influence it has on your channel. Will you ever (or have you and I’ve missed it) done a video on NMH?
it could honestly be every single "physics bike flash game" there were too many of those, and only Happy Wheels was worth it really only bc it appealed to that "haha the cartoon bleeds, so kewl" crowd (i won't even pretend i wasn't part of the problem lol)
Oh god I didnt hallucinate this game. I pretty much only played event horizon and bandito chinchilla, so I'd agree that that is it, they're the only good parts.
My only memory of it was playing Thrillville off the rails on the DS, and getting frustrated as a kid when I tried looking up videos on it not knowing that there were other versions of the game.
I haven't seen or heard about this game since like I was 7 and i had the demo for it that I played over and over. Never bought the actual game tho, think I was happy enough with Rollercoaster Tycoon 3 and it's expansions. Also, thank you for finally giving me an answer to why It always seems weird seeing frontier developments logo in elite dangerous, i could never place where I knew the name from but always too lazy to look it up
Did you know there's a DS Thrillville game? ... Yeah, it plays literally exactly the same, except instread of being 3D it's an isometric 2D game that looks vaguely like Rollercoaster Tycoon.
How did you manage to make a video made explicitly for me? I played this on PS2 so much when I was a kid! I spent so much time doing the mini games, exploring the parks, talking to people. I never properly finished the game, but still, I had fun! I wonder if it still holds up today.
It sorta does at least the Wii version which is apparently the worst version it’s fun enough and there’s a lot to do especially if your a kid the mini games are sometimes fun and the dialogue is hilariously awful it doesn’t control great on the Wii almost any game that involves precision is impossible the graphics have aged poorly but it’s ideas and charm are still there as long as your not incredibly critical on games like these you will probably enjoy it
This game is a haze in my memory and the only thing I can recall from it was being able to kiss boys. That made young me start thinking some thoughts about things I hadn't thought thoughts about before. Good stuff, ThrillVille.
2:41 I...genuinely don't know how many times you _have_ promised to go in-depth about a particular subject in a different video. All I remember is this one with Atari and that's it.
@@bumblesmcfumbles wait, shit, I frogot about the mention at 17:47 of a future video about 1942 (the Capcom game), was that the (potentially) joke one?
@@bumblesmcfumbles I checked a third time, and >History of Ganondorf in Smash (teased in Glitches Turned Gameplay Features, did get made as Video #53 and thus is only on this list for, i dunno, archival purposes?) >Every Mortal Kombat Fatality Ranked (also teased in Glitches Turned Gameplay Features) >Atari's Failed Revivals (teased here) >Capcom's 1942 (teased here as a joke) >Rareware's History With Microsoft (alluded to in the Donkey Kong: Jungle Beat video as having enough dirt to warrant a separate video in itself) >something to do with Mega Man X (teased-with-a-question-mark at the end of the Go Gamer Portable video)
Oh my I loved this game as a child. I needed to see the gameplay first tho to remember it (could be my fault for having no good name memory) I remember playing one game the most that looked super sweet but had this dark floating thing being the villain.
So, this game was part of my childhood. Last night, I got really drunk and apparently started thinking about it. I googled to see if there was a PS3 version since it was around that time. I discovered that there is a PS4/5 port. Apparently, I bought it, opened it, and didn't get past selecting a character. The shock I had when I woke up to this game was. Something.
To answer your question, I think the stunt driver minigame is ripping off the Papa's cooking games, like Papa's Pizzeria, at least in terms of artstyle. The eyes and proportions are near identical to the characters in that. Also, thank you for beating me over the head with this heavy piece of nostalgia. I caught myself singing the theme song unashamedly once this video popped up, so that was something.
me too i played it on the PSP of my (now almost neighbouring) acquaintance when i was younger i remember i almost always deleted the previous track piece instead of placing a piece because of my Nintendo controls instinct
There are several theme park tycoon game series out their. Ones you didn’t mention (at the beginning, haven’t seen at her the whole way through) include Theme Park (yeah, lazy name, but it was the first game in the genre, so it gets a pass), planet coaster (ignored the tycoon mode to just add more stuff via microtransactions ), and Parkitect:
I remember back when I was a kid I had a choice between getting Thrillville and Neopets: The Darkest Faerie. I'm glad I never got Thrillville, because the Darkest Faerie is still one of my favorite games of all time.
I am 27 years old and i still have my copy of Off the Rails for the PSP, yes I even still have my psp to play it and you're damn right I do play it XD It's not an award winning game by any means but it's one of love having as my time waster. It has its flaws but it will never not be fun for me I much more focus on the rides and games and even as a kid didn't bother with guests unless they gave missions and even then barely gave a fuck ♡ let me build a kick ass golf course more than anything else as I try to learn the lore of my boy Bandito Chinchilla
Thrillville is a game for children in the same way that something like Banjo and Kazooie is a game for children. It's pure mindless fun and an infinite distraction from how monotonous the rest of the world can be. Also any game resembling fun you can play with 4 people was pretty great during the Wii era.
Play the Entertainer Mini game in Throttleville. The music for that area is always "East Northumberland High" by Miley Cyrus. Can't be too hard to find, it _is_ the starting area for the whole game, after all. Even if you remember this game fondly enough to repurchase it years later, nothing takes the wind out of your sails quite like watching the ugly identical cheerleaders in the Xbox 360 version of the game dance along to the lyrics *_"Just because I liked you back then, it doesn't mean I like you now"_* repeated ad nauseum...

That sounds simultaneously irritating and hilarious.

I love that the unspoken but immediate reaction to hearing a child say he likes Knuckles is to gently poke him in the eye.
I faintly remember playing this game in daycare back when I was in elementary school. Me and the other kids would practically speedrun Bandito Chinchilla
Bandito chinchilla was unironically such a good mini game. Like if we just got a spin-off of that, I’d be replaying it over and over
BUMBLES YOU FUCKING LEGEND!!!
I have not heard of Thrillville since I played it as a child. You literally fired a 50 caliber round of nostalgia through my head and I couldn’t be happier. I’m not even 2 minutes in yet
"You're devoid of human decency" takes the gold for funniest line in this or any game
You know it's good when the intro starts with an Action Park ad
Dude, the Wii version of this WAS MY CHILDHOOD! I’m so glad it’s now getting the good representation it deserves other than being a “RCT Knockoff”
Edit: Yeah, looking back the game is shallow but 6 year old me still ate it up lol
Love seeing all these comments going "This game was amazing!" with an edit going "Oh"
This game looks like the video game manifestation of saying “why am I playing this instead of Roller Coaster Tycoon 2”
The
Ballad of Bandito Chinchilla has lived in my mind rent free for 14 years
bumble mcfumbles and caddicarus my favorite youtubers of all time who are ridiculous that make my life a million times better 😂❤️

God i had this game as a kid too, seeing this in my notifications just hit me with a bunch of nostalgia
This game makes me want to rant about aliens for 30 minutes straight
My God I keep forgetting about this great game of my childhood, thank you for reminding me of this great thing
I also got off the Rails when I was trying to get the original game. Man, everything you said about it being a thing, that just, stopped, sure are true. All of it.
painfully so.
Kinda like Viva Pinata!
When I see this game all I can think of is that crazy band from the 90’s my Life with the Thrill Kill Kult.
Was that god damn black ops in a game about “managing” a “theme park”?
Me: wow I wish I could say that I was part of that collective of people who have a memory of this game
Me as soon as I see the uncle: WAIT A MINUTE-
Yea
fr i was like "i think i had this game?" then i saw that dude and was like "i 100% still have this game in my closet"
Thrillville on the Wii was my introduction to first person shooters....I wish I was joking.
Oh my. I played this game when I was young. On the PS2. It was fun to make people go flying after building a coaster.
My sister and I had this game on our Wii when we were kids, and I remember having a lot of fun with it.
We also had Rollercoaster Tycoon 3, which I remember a lot less of.
We were certainly kids.
Dude! I had Off The Rails when I was a kid!

Wait, people actually played the "park simulator" part? When I picked it up, it was essentially just a mini game collection to play with family.
15:28 *Just say it's Puzzle Bobble, you corn chair*
The game at 16:38 is like a deformed child of Happy Wheels that's using assets from what looks like the Papa Louie games.
I had Six Flags Fun Park sitting next to me when you brought it up. You're the only person I've seen other than myself that brought it up
Love the way you implement the number of the video/theory into the thumbnail
1:57 >:0 he said the Uzi thing
Kind of surprised that you caught the Bubble Bobble ripoff but didn't notice that Vendor Tender was just Puzzle Bobble except someone forgot to turn on the park's gravity so things just fall...up.
didnt realize frontier made ANOTHER roller coaster builder game series, only knew of RCT3 and planet coaster (and planet zoo but thats not a roller coaster builder and is technically part of the same series of planet coaster)
15:28 Vendor Tender is just if LucasArts left Puzzle Bobble out in the sun.
16:35 Alex Trax is the oldest game I can remember that is like that.
I was gonna say it’s similar to hill climb racing.
I was going to say Moto X3M
I remember playing with my best friend in Job Corps.
I remember this game back on the ps2 and I remember learning about cheat codes. Back when they actually made this little books about in-game cheat codes. And one of them was for Thrillville Off the Rails that if you just put in an input at the main starting gate, you get like...a million cash right there. And could spam it.
Props for using Action Park in the beginning, a sign of things to come
The more and more I have gotten into the NMH series in the past months I see the influence it has on your channel. Will you ever (or have you and I’ve missed it) done a video on NMH?
Bumbles, in case you're still wondering (and not joking), "Stunt Driver" is a rip-off of "Happy Wheels"
it could honestly be every single "physics bike flash game"
there were too many of those, and only Happy Wheels was worth it
really only bc it appealed to that "haha the cartoon bleeds, so kewl" crowd (i won't even pretend i wasn't part of the problem lol)
*SPITS* Duuuuuude you just reawakened my childhood. And to think I only got it because the trailer was on Lego Star Wars II on the PSP.
Oh god I didnt hallucinate this game. I pretty much only played event horizon and bandito chinchilla, so I'd agree that that is it, they're the only good parts.
16:38 I think the bike flash game was just called Trials or something like that, but there was a bunch of them
what? No love for 'goosebumps horrorland: the video game'?
I honestly thought this game was a fever dream
Thrillville: off the rails was such a big part of my childhood!
14:08 top 50 starts with #40? You don’t do anything for us!
My only memory of it was playing Thrillville off the rails on the DS, and getting frustrated as a kid when I tried looking up videos on it not knowing that there were other versions of the game.

"im on the gamers edge right now" adopting that into my vocabulary real quick
I loved this game so much as a kid
Hey @Bumbles!!! I think the Biking Game you're thinking of around 16:45 is Happy Wheels

This game is a haze in my memory and the only thing I can recall from it was being able to kiss boys. That made young me start thinking some thoughts about things I hadn't thought thoughts about before. Good stuff, ThrillVille.
Also I know this video is older but the motorcycle game is based off of trials
I could not stop laughing at "I really need a woman!"
