True story: when I was younger I played this game religiously, so much that I got so used to the jank as hell timing windows, when I tried to play La Grange on GH3 muscle memory fucked me up bad and I ended up failing the song
The DS was pretty awesome. Rhythm games weren't exactly it's main attraction, but it still had lots and lots of good music due to having a huge number of good RPGs.
I got it at a thrift store when I was younger and didn’t realize it needed buttons or a pick since they just had the little game itself, not even the package
I know most of y'all are against the idea of a new GH/RB game, but I think a remaster of some sort for Nintendo Switch would be pretty cool. It would be nice to be able to take Guitar Hero with me without it looking/feeling this ridiculous. Lol
Well, the clone hero team made an android version, and if you have a tablet with android it would be a similar experience (but you can use real controllers haha)
These were my fucking jam. Also idk if he had a bad copy of decades or a bad controller or something but I remember it playing the best of the 3 I played?
This was actually my first exposure to guitar hero when I was a kid and I was in love with it. When we bought world tour and I saw there was an orange button I was like "Wtf I only have 4 fingers. How am I supposed to hit 5 buttons?"
You should try playing the game more. Like I hate to be blunt but if you can’t play anything on easy then you’re clearly not playing the game, period lol. It takes maybe a day or two to get used to it.
This was my only guitar hero experience until I finally convinced my friend to give me his ps2 copy. By that point I had already fully mastered the ds and to this day I can still kick ass on it. One of my favorite rhythm game experiences for sure lol
Imagine someone walking in to your room at 2 AM and your sitting there playing guitar hero on a DS while filming with your moms camera. How do you explain why your pants are off?
So ok the way the DS handles 2 fingers seems so be just the point in the middle of them. Unless you apply more pressure to one or the other in which case it will move the point to one finger or the other. So theoretically if you could control that you could "rake strum" by placing one finger on each side of the guitar and alternating pressure.
Ah man, I loved this one! This is gonna sound silly, but as a kid this was the one Guitar Hero game I wanted more than any of the other ones, just the whole idea of playing it on my DS was mind blowing to me. I asked for it for my birthday and Christmas every year for the next four or five years until finally my uncle got it for me for Christmas when I was 10 or 11, and I was ecstatic.
10:46 Alec is good at singing tho, The thing is Heaven is Acai's one of his favorite songs because this song makes him happy because of his childhood listening on his dad's CD player or listening in a car. the vocalist of Los lonely boys sounds like Anthony Kendls from RHCP. Fun fact: He sightread this song since 13 years ago playing the same game for first time FC'd this song.
I have been playing clone hero for like 3 or 4 days and I am going to keep on playing it and get really good at it like you so ya I have been watching you for awhile now and I love your vids so keep up the good work dude!
I got this game launch day when I was a kid lol. I got some day 1 promo gifts including a transparent blue pick, a black wrist sweatband with the games logo stiched into it (lol as if you break a sweat playing guitar hero ds), and a temporary tattoo with the games logo on it. When I got home I realized the adapter for using it on the old chunky ds was broken, but I think I was able to go back that day to replace it. I remember playing it on long car rides, kept me entertained lol.
my brother watches you so he might see this😔. but me, my 3 brothers and my sister in law play guitar hero on our old Xbox 360, we recently bought 2 guitars because our old ones didn't work. it's kind of like the only way we bond. but it's really fun:) my brother showed me your channel and I think your really funny:')
I'm glad there's a big name GH streamer who feels the way I do about Heaven. Los Lonely Boys deserved a spot on a mainline GH game. That song is, pun intended, GOD TIER.

Hey there brother sorry about how late it is but I just wanted to say thank you so very much for your awesome video I love guitar hero it brings me back to some awesome memories with my friends and when I saw you get so excited about the song how far is heaven it really truly spoke to me because along time ago 15 years ago I used to work in a supermarket in the fresh produce and vegetable area and they allways had this song on the rotation and it brought back some memories thank you so very much for video and keep up the awesome work cheers tommo all the way from new zealand
It was cool for what it was. It works properly and is fun for 10-15 minutes which is all it needed to be. If you have big hands it's not so great though.
For real, though. This game had a fire setlist. I more or less got used to the way it handled strumming as well. I loved being able to play this game portably, because I was obsessed with Guitar Hero and rhythm games, and wanted to play them anywhere I could. I honestly think this game probably was the best it could be, save for having a strum bar mounted on the side of the DS or something. Vicarious Visions did a great job doing something so ludicrous, and I guess that even some Harmonix devs thought so too, because this is the only non-Harmonix Guitar Hero game to have a Freezepop song in it, as far as I know.
Thanks for bringing back memories of playing this in the back of my parents car as we drive for errands or the beach. Heaven and Maroon 5 were the big nostalgia trips. Such a great game I'll go play it rn.

imagine the handheld controls
hit notes with the touchscreen, strum with one of the sticks
"without it looking ridiculous" yeah good luck with that
You're going to look just as much of a dipshit playing on a switch as you do on a ds bro
They could do it on switch with the up left on d pad and buttons like rock band d's did. That would work great
If theres 1 thing i can say about Guitar Hero DS it actually had a really good selection of Songs overall
And the sequels were great too.

I absolutely loved this game when i was kid, and definitely didn't expect to see it on your channel
I remember playing this as my first guitar hero game back in like 2010 my screen was scratched beyond believe
That second song is on the radio at my work literally every day, it's like the same 15 songs over and over again.
YES! Finally I can see the GH god shred on his Nintendo DS! What a day.
Rake strumming in clone hero: HOW FAST DO I HAVE TO DO THIS????
Rake strumming on DS: lightly rubs 2 fingers
So ok the way the DS handles 2 fingers seems so be just the point in the middle of them. Unless you apply more pressure to one or the other in which case it will move the point to one finger or the other. So theoretically if you could control that you could "rake strum" by placing one finger on each side of the guitar and alternating pressure.

When you realize that Lynyrd Skynyrd is the first band to have two of their songs be the final encore of a Guitar Hero game.
As someone who's FC'ed almost the entire library back in the day, it's very validating to see Acai struggle
I played the hell out of this game I remember jamming out at Denny’s full blast it’s was such a great time to be alive
I remember this, thinking it could be so goddamn cool to play guitar hero wherever I go.
I returned it later that day.

I’m glad a big youtuber is finally playing the DS games! It’s how I found Guitar Hero!
People laugh at this, but this was my first experience with Guitar Hero, and I loved it and played it anytime I could. The memories.
I've never seen Acai as happy since All Star was in a Guitar Hero game, and they charted the whistle
When’s exile lord gonna chart something to this bad boy

Love to see he’s probably bringing popularity back to the game
I had the On Tour: Decades version of this as a kid and played it constantly, it introduced me to so many classic bands
I had this game as a kid, it was horrible!
It was cool for what it was. It works properly and is fun for 10-15 minutes which is all it needed to be. If you have big hands it's not so great though.

the ds is still tight as fuck.
Still do bust out the DS once in a while but playing this specifically gets REALLY uncomfortable for me.

Guitar Hero DS have best songs vibes bro!
This unlock memories I forgot I had. The start of every alt kid’s journey
Guitar hero on tour was my shit back in like 2009.
When I played this game as a kid all I did was tap the screen instead of swiping. Works a lot better
Seeing a DS Lite in 2020 really takes me back.
Literally my first GH game was On Tour Decades. I have gotten car sick many times in my life, and this is probably the main cause.
Oh yes On Tour ! Decade is the best. Awesome reaction at 6:20.

When you played heaven the vibes ascended lmao i used to play gh on ds as a kid and it was my favorite song :)
This si a great video, but I am absolutely living for the comments on the side!
this was one of three guitar hero games i ever owned. it was this, gh1, and gh3 on ps2. truly staggering
