Finding the photos in the keypad box was one of the most bittersweet moments in the remaster. It acts like an epilogue that shows you the alternate timeline where Past Max attempts to rescue Past Sam.
When I was thinking of what would happen if Sam & Max Season 4 came out in 2013 (Because I figured Telltale would’ve made a Sam & Max game in order to co inside with the 25th anniversary, as well as having a Poker Night game coming out at the same year as a Sam & Max game). I originally imagine that Season 4 would’ve had Sam turn into the electro monster that Max had to stop, finishing off with Sam getting tired, revealing that the Season happened during Season 3, and the ending would’ve lead Season 4 Max to enter Season 3 Sam’s timeline and all that weird nonsense. I ultimately decided that I was overthinking it, because it felt like a bad fanfic… no wait, it is a bad fanfic.
To add further connections, the apple you get with the screwdriver is a callback to the beginning of Season 1, where Sam tries to shoot a apple off of Max’s head.
I like the extra steps that make you keep an eye out for secrets to earn the Specs. Very old school gamey. And those photos of Past Max's timeline are a nice bittersweet reward.
Oh man it's kinda sad realising that every Max experienced Sam dying I'd personally be devastated if as a kid I'd seen my friend blow up A truly awesome remaster shows how much Skunkapes actually care for the game
I can see how Sammun-Mak in HIS body, as well as young max and future max are there, since the past Sam and Max took the time machine when the ship exploded, they got to keep it and us it to get those three into the present in the other timeline.
It would be cool but… 1: nutrispecs were unused content, and the way to get it was supposed to be arg, but got reimplemented into game 2: season 3 was the perfect finale
This truly was a very unique and new way to unlock the Nurti-Specs and give us a never before seen little look and setup context to Past Max’s timeline!
I wish the keypad was earlier in the level so we could still get the Superball, demon broth, Flint Paper, and spaghetti readings. Those where some of the funniest ones. Oh well.

That past-Max photo with the characters… Isn’t there a fan-comic/fic about this alternative timeline? I haven’t read it, so could someone verify if this is based on that… Because if so- WOW! Skunkape Games love their fans more than we thought!
There is a extremely osbure easter egg with this item where you scan the Abraham lincon wax head in the sewars and it gives a code or something for like a unused ARG or something like that. wonder if this remaster kept it at all.

Not gonna lie. The extra steps they added to find the Nutrition Specs feel completely unnecessary. Plus, they way the structured it left Flint Paper's nutrition card cut out of the game!
I personally liked it because you had to check your surroundings to see what the code was. It reminded me of the older point and click adventure games. Plus, the fact that the code was shown at the very end and you go back to the keypad immediately afterwards was very bittersweet because we got to get a glimpse of Past Max's timeline. Yeah, some nutrition cards were cut but I really didn't mind because we ended up getting something new.

If they ever continue the series, I'd be cool with it being the story of that alternate timeline.
I need this timeline.
Thanks for the info
That's some pretty good lore, right there.

Well, it's NICE to know that Past Max tried to SAVE Past Sam instead of going straight for the "blowing up" solution.
To add further connections, the apple you get with the screwdriver is a callback to the beginning of Season 1, where Sam tries to shoot a apple off of Max’s head.

A truly awesome remaster shows how much Skunkapes actually care for the game
After a decade of being only found in the PS3 release, the Nutri-Specs are finally available ACROSS platforms!!! :D
Hey Jasper
THAT'S why I've never seen these before!
If I had a dollar for every time you show up in a Sam and max related video….
I can see how Sammun-Mak in HIS body, as well as young max and future max are there, since the past Sam and Max took the time machine when the ship exploded, they got to keep it and us it to get those three into the present in the other timeline.
I thought the picture was like a potential teaser for Season 4, wow it’s actually Past Max’s version of the game?! That’s a great addition
It would be cool but…
1: nutrispecs were unused content, and the way to get it was supposed to be arg, but got reimplemented into game
2: season 3 was the perfect finale
A Brand New Season showing What Past Max & Sam got into would be really cool. Hope Skunkape would make that.
6:50 After 14 years the mystery has finally been solved. I wonder if there's a story behind that GIF.
Looks like The Mystery Item Inside Pudding Lincoln’s Head comes to a close after about a decade! What a ride these remasters gave us, huh?
And it was a NFT gif card of Sam and Max bobbing up and down, ren and stimpy style!
This truly was a very unique and new way to unlock the Nurti-Specs and give us a never before seen little look and setup context to Past Max’s timeline!

Maybe you get to keep the specs after you find them, similar to the PS3 version?
Indeed, the ones for the demon broth and spaghetti are especially funny.
When I got the Nutrispecs, flint paper appeared at Meesta Pizza and I was able to get his readings there. Along with Superball in the remaster! :D
@@FloofPuppy How did Flint Paper get there?
@@pangorogrunt3114 He just... appeared there.
He wasn't there when I first played the game on launch day (pre-patch) But he appeared there when I got the Nutrispecs on a new playthrough
Omg I really liked how the past Sam and max left the screwdriver brings a really good callback
"Glean? Is that a real word, Sam?" - Max, "The Thing That Wouldn't Stop It."
if you're wondering why you can't scan Superball, it's because the contents of his body and his nutritional value are also classified.
That past-Max photo with the characters…
Isn’t there a fan-comic/fic about this alternative timeline? I haven’t read it, so could someone verify if this is based on that…
Because if so- WOW! Skunkape Games love their fans more than we thought!
I really need a fanfic/comic on past max’s pov on the devil’s playhouse
@@myghostlyromance I believe there is one…
Somewhere.
I’ve only ever heard about it in an iceberg video.
I think I stumbled upon it just a few hours ago, it was called Sam & Max: Another Way
@@greatsageclok-roo9013 I’ve seen the iceberg video but for unknown reasons it got taken down
@@RealLeoking08 is it a fanfic or a comic?
Daaamn! The remaster really brings everything together! D:
1:29 actually past Sam had electromagnetic powers
That's only when Past Sam became a Demigod after destroying the Devil's Toybox.
Apparently there was a new patch today that added more Nutri-Specs dialogue bits ^^;
Awesome! I'll have to check that out.
Yeah! From what I've read, they readded and relocated the bits of dialogue for inspecting the demon broth and Flint Paper. :P
I hope we get a Season 4 one day.
That’s in Steve Purcell, but I don’t think he’s a big fan of long running series.
1:12 Those ain't my tears, they're YOUR tears that you put in my eyes!
Took a snapshot of it so I won’t forget.
There is a extremely osbure easter egg with this item where you scan the Abraham lincon wax head in the sewars and it gives a code or something for like a unused ARG or something like that. wonder if this remaster kept it at all.
They replaced it with the Sam and Max animation gag later in the video
I found the Nutri-Specs easily before you helped me. I think Max will be better if he can try to control his psychic toys.

interesting rescue crew, i really hope the skunkape team will make a "Side B" of season 3 where sam has the psychic powers.
I think I should keep that in mind when I get the game once I’m a mission for the Platinum Trophy when the time is right
This definitely feels like a a very high ranking trophy to unlock!
But in a fun and good way!
I wanna see an animated Past Max version of this and see what's different between 2 versions.
wish there was a full suite of the other timeline. i want to see max doing max things
I wish this artifact was in more than one episode.
We need poker night comeback 😞
8:47 Yak farmers, is such a milkshake truly disgusting?
I don't think they have internet. Yaks are in pretty remote places, after all.
I'm hoping the Demon Broth scene for the Nutri Specs is still in it.
U can scan superball on the ship now and flint paper at meestas
Do the rest of the secret achievements. I cannot for the life of me figure out how to curse Jurgen twice in one go
Not gonna lie. The extra steps they added to find the Nutrition Specs feel completely unnecessary. Plus, they way the structured it left Flint Paper's nutrition card cut out of the game!

That'll be a lot of effort for that and I don't think they got the time for it.
