    at 3:18 that's a Tosa Inu. Yakuza use them for dog fighting. Even if this was entirely in english it's japanese to a fault.

    Quiz games are truly the final frontier for the Japanese language student. Not only do you have to deal with a time limit, but also pop/traditional culture topics that you would never encounter in any textbook.

    One interesting fact about the music in Quiz Daisousasen is that the ending theme called “Sunset Sky” is the first of a series of ending theme songs with that name trough SNK games from fatal fury to KOF games until Garou with the final song “Sunset Sky Again”

    "The second scenario is even crazier".... What ?
    I actually completely forgot there is another scenario.. The first one began with just "finding a dog"..
    So cool to have that kind of game shown since it's unlikely any of us would have played it. They really wanted to "seem" like a movie which is impressive in 1991 i think.

    Out of curiosity, as you're going through the numbers cronologically, will you be covering the Korean versions of games too? Maybe an overview of the range even?

    • @BasementBrothers
      @BasementBrothers  3 роки тому +8

      Hi Larry. I don't plan to cover the Korean versions in the main series. Although I might consider your idea about an overview video on the Korean releases in the future.
      Between AES/MVS, CD versions, and ports, the scope of the videos can get a bit out of hand. I only mentioned the Korean release of this one because it's a quiz game that isn't available in any other languages. (I found it interesting that this game was available in a language other than Japanese.) I plan to mention the Korean version again if I ever get to Quiz King of Fighters.
      Thanks for your interest in the series! - Neo-Alec

    As someone that has wondered what in the hell this game was about for some years, I thank you for making an English summary with this video. I can't wait to see your video on the sequel, as, from what I've seen from the visuals, seems to be even wackier than the first game. Keep up the good work.

    about the composers, Makko and Hiraocchi are stated by Shimizu in the (incomplete) soundtrack release (released in a compilation album with the much more memorable King of the Monsters) to be "new members" (who presumably left right after this game). Although the tracks that are made by Yamate and Shimizu are obvious (the "accident" one for example is probably Yamate)
    edit: the soundtrack release only has the music that was in the zombie route, which is weird. i think it's SNK's only incomplete soundtrack out of all of them, also Shimizu and Yamate did a much better job on Last Resort

    Quiz Daisousa Sen is an amazing and unique game, it is a shame that it was not released outside Japan but I guess it would be hard to adapt things. But maybe it was for the best, considering how Riding Hero had a poor translation and names changed so maybe it would be the same here.

    Also one more thing bro. Since you know a lot about NeoGeo, mind if I ask you, do you know why Quiz Daisousa Sen was not released on the NeoGeo CD, considering many other titles from 1991~1993 were released on the NGCD later?. This would have been a great release on the system!, an amazing game that would run smooth.

    • @BasementBrothers
      @BasementBrothers  Рік тому +1

      Hi there. Thank you for your nice comments. I gave my reasoning for why it wasn't released on the Neo Geo CD in the video (in the section where I would normally talk about the Neo Geo CD version). Did you see it?

      ​@@BasementBrothers OOF, I didn't but there was a reason, it was because I am really looking forward to play it myself that I decided to stop after watching your review of Chris' story. My current level of Japanese is very low, I can only read about 20 kanji so I can't enjoy Quiz Daisousa Sen and Quiz KOF yet, but now I decided to watch everything and got your explanation ^^. Thank you very much for being so kind to tell me this instead of ignoring me(some people could have done this), someday when I improve my JP enough I'll still play it, and I hope someday I can be as knowledgeable as you on the Neo•Geo, even without the Naazo!

    My only question is: why on God’s Green Earth are there NO Neo Geo ROM hacks?!
    Think about it: I would love to see a...
    Magician Lord Randomizer
    R-Type II for the system (COULD work, minus the aspect ratio for multi-scrolling in the game)
    KOF 94 with a Team Edit mode
    Among others I can’t Name
    I say this because-outside bootlegs, you don’t really see any ROM hacks for the NeoGeo scene; but you see like OVER 9000 ROM hacks for Sonic The Hedgehog, or ANOTHER Super Mario World Hack, or even Touhou! It’s like... can anyone think of something else to hack? Can’t ANYONE think of something else? Be freaking original!!!
    Oh and at 8:54, I am eternally thankful you did NOT reference the disgrace to the NeoGeo: Crouching Pony Hidden Dragon!
    Edit: I also want to give you a heads up for Last Resort... it is... BRUTAL. My only advice I can give is to judge the background colors upon what option power-up would be most appropriate to use. I hope this helps...

    When you got to the plot point, "The real president is found dead in his bathroom," I was like, "Why is this necessary? This is a QUIZ game!"
    I recently had a similar reaction to another SNK game, made years later. SNK vs. Capcom Card Fighters 2 has a "girl" named Yaschichi, after Capcom's early Easter egg symbol, who had a crush on my male avatar. Of course, she turned out to be biologically male, and said something like, "Gender shouldn't matter if two people are in love."
    Why is this necessary? This is a CARD game!
    I wonder if any of the same people worked on both games, inserting this needlessly "edgy" content into presumably innocuous genres? Card Fighters 2 does have a "Neo Mantle" in it, and even a "Robo Mantle."
