I enjoyed Tom & Jerry as a kid, but even I had to admit it was rather difficult. The most I've ever gotten was the Tom boss fight in the chimley, I think. I love the 8bit arrangements of Scott Bradley's iconic score.
There isn't a single gaming channel that does it better than Gamesack, the Gaming historian and, of course, Erin... She's just cut from a different cloth. Even when the source material of her videos might not sound interesting -- she always makes it interesting. She really deserves massive respect and praise because her quality, elocution and appeal are just somewhere else.
Tom & Jerry: Frantic Antics on the Genesis is absolutely horrible. I rented the game as a kid decades ago, and the hit-detection was completely broken. And, it's another game where everything wants to hurt you and does.
I loved Tom & Jerry as a kid, played it to completion a few years ago and still loved it. Agreed that it's hard as hell, but once you get out of the basement and into the house proper it has a really fun "tiny mouse in a big world" feel. The bosses are huge for an NES game. And the soundtrack (from chiptune legend Tim Follin) is frantic genius. Way underappreciated gem from a typically low-tier developer.
it is a good game indeed, although i'm not really sure i was able to beat it because it becomes pretty tough as it progresses. And yeah, the confusing levels were indeed an issue, but because I was young, there were few games to play and no internet to "just download more" or money to "buy more" games so I was constantly coming back to this game (and others i had) to try and beat again. If I tried the game now I would've just picked some other game to play because playing "where the fuck do I go" kind of games just became tiring for me. Not mostly because I became older, but because it's way too easy to pick something else to play nowadays, and you can actually watch videos/streams of psychos who actually decided to play those games and recorded it.
Its quite fun the level of detail in the animations are pretty sweet. I also believe that it didn't flicker a whole lot. I haven't played it in over a year though.
Classic doss games good memories my fav was irem games and bio menace and Tom and Jerry but this game was interesting great review erin say hi to mike rockon
Glad to see you back, Erin! That Tom & Jerry (and whoever else™) game seems poorly planned (and I too hate platforms that look like background and vice-versa), but it looks really good for an NES game! It's the type of game that should really be salvaged by a hacker/modder.
5:07 I think the reason Barbie and other early Game Boy games played this slow is that the developers were using the Super Game Boy, which sped up the gameplay by 2.4% faster. That is why some games like "The Catlevania Adventure" are hated by some people, but if they played these games on Super Game Boy it was easy to miss these problems. I had lots of Game Goy games but I always used my Super Game Boy, rather than buying a old Game Boy, then buying batteries or an adapter for it. Super Game Boy allowed me to save video on VHS so I could show my friends my accomplishments which was much more important to me. This problem was fixed for the Super game Boy 2, but only for Japan.
Check out voltar's you tube channel. The super game boy did have a different crystal which made it faster. If affects games differently, some slower is better including music, The Barbie ones not so much. I think you're correct in your assumption. Voltar talks about the speed difference and a very novice and cheap mod you can buy to fix the clock speed issue which i did but gameboy games developed using orginal supergamboy will run only slower. 😬
"Someday I'd like to dive into the Dos library!" **Thousand yard stare** You really wouldn't... I got the Mega Man 1 and 3 DOS games for my birthday when they came out. They're frustratingly difficult, broken, have no password/save system and despite Mega Man 3 being a sequel, it uses the exact same win screens! Mega Man 3 also has a game breaking glitch in the final level. If you run into it you're hosed, because like I said earlier, no password/save system.
The slow movement in the Barbie GameBoy game might be due to the original GameBoy screen's horrible refresh rate -- they probably slowed it down to maintain graphic fidelity. Love your videos! Thanks for posting.
The criticisms on the T&J game are quite fair, it leads to an inital bad impression due to a lot of trial and error. I did enjoy it though, in particular because for a relatively low-key NES game, it did incredibly well in having fitting scenery related to the cartoon and good progression; there's just no repetition at all and many of the areas look rather believable, which is astounding for an NES game of this type. Good controls, decent challenge, good variety, not too frustrating gimmicks, and the music [although kinda weird, but in a good way] is also pretty great.
Thanks for not taking the low-road and making fun of Megaman 1 & 3 for DOS. A lot of 'Tubers love to jump on the bandwagon and use those games as a punchline. "It's impossible to get through this area without getting hit!" (no it's not, the reviewer just isn't a good player) I legit like those games. They weren't my first exposure, but they were the first Megamans I owned, as a kid. I also had Ernie's Big Splash for my old IBM PC compatible. It was one of the first games I ever played. I didn't know they were all made by the same guy until a few years ago.
It's probably nostalgia goggles because I owned it as a kid, but I like Harley's Humongous Adventure. It's definitely not S-tier or even close, but I think it's a serviceable platformer. Two things I noticed in your gameplay that could improve your experience are: 1)You can throw your weapons straight upward. Just hold up and press attack. I noticed you attacking enemies horizontally by jumping up to their height. Just get under them and launch your projectile upward. 2)In the tank stage, your problem with the enemies not lining up with the tank's weapon could be alleviated by adjusting the height of the cannon. You can aim higher or lower, down to level. I believe this is done via up and down on the d-pad but I can't remember offhand. If you raise the barrel and jump to get those projectiles to hit near the edge of the screen, that level is a cake walk. Anyway, there are a couple of quality-of-life adjustments that I hope encourage you to give HHA another try. Fun video! Thanks!
I've been subscribed for a while but haven't watched your videos recently. Just finished watching this one and I totally forgot how good of a reviewer you are. Fantastic video!
Harley's Humongous Adventure, while it had its flaws, was pretty fun. And the combination of shrunken main character with the claymation look was an interesting combo. Tom & Jerry wins points for its soundtrack alone.
Another excellent video! I guess they were taking notes from LJN?!? Lol. I really like your shirt as well. If you were a cartoon character you would totally be Gadget!
Good selection of relatively unknown titles; I haven't played much of any of these, but Harley's Humongous Adventure is the most '90s thing I've seen all month. I was half-expecting that Muppet game on the NES, which was pretty bad, but I do come back to it every now and again just because of how bizarre it is.
- I have fond memories of Tom and Jerry when I was a kid, but I'm sure today I'd find it incredibly frustrating. There was also a Tom and Jerry game on DOS by Hi-Tech, which I could never properly understand. It was all about playing as Jerry and using scenery to fight Tom, but I don't remember it as well as the NES one. - Well, I don't see what's weird about Monsters in my Pocket having a kitchen level when the whole deal is that they're tiny, pocket-sized monsters. - I've always found interesting how it's clear that the developers don't really have many ideas because they just have everything and everyone around you work as an enemy. Apples dropping from trees, bouncing balls, random birds, kids in skateboards, etc. Those are all very common threats in generic platformers.
I love how your lists always seem to hit some games I know and some I don't. Keep it from feeling like you specifically choose the least recognized stuff on purpose, but still introduces new things. Keep up the great work!
Erin, I don’t know how you think of the thumbnail image on your videos but the look on your face is so perfect! 😂 Anyway I enjoyed the video! I remember in the mid 90’s, I played one of those Barbie games as a kid with these girls I was friends with. They really thought it was the coolest thing in the world! 😆
8:44 It is a port of the NES game. One that is not that great, but it exists. It was rather easy, actually, both versions were easy. :/ ... DOS Mega Man. All three of them. You're in for a ride when you review those...
Luckily I didn't play 4 of bad Hi-Tech developed games. Although I liked the Tom and Jerry NES game I got in form of the typical yellow cartridge for a Famiclone console back in the end of the 90's. I had to practice quite a few times to get to the more distant levels, such as a living room with a real NES game console as a background object, a level with drill-breakable walls, and an outdoor level with a giant squirrel enemy. The two different level music alternated one after the level completing, at least I didn't get bored of them. As I looked at the engineer mouse girl on your t-shirt, I remember that I had seen almost every episode of Chip and Dale: Rescue Rangers cartoon series on VHS tapes and TV channels. That was a really good Disney series, with the well made hungarian dubs. Gadget Hackwrench got pleasant female voice. 🙂
Those glasses are awesome! I thankfully never played any of these games. It sucks that the focus is to "make a game" instead of "make a fun game" a lot of times.
Tom & Jerry isn't easy. beat it recently. get Mike to stream it... probably get some quality rage moments out of it. I had fun playing through it. lots of practice to get to the end...
I had that gameboy Barbie game, but our copy would glitch out when Barbie jumped over a fountain in the mall section, wow I can't believe how much was in it (terrible, of course, just neat to see the rest)
The first Dos Mega Man game was essentially made my one guy, without really any budget or resources, and seemingly as a mandatory side project to his other, regular work, so I'd really cut it some slack.
Aw man, Roll Over Beethoven was the song used in all the commercials for Beethoven. I never saw the movie, but I imagine the movie uses a lot of 50s and early 60s music, which the game could've used.
People say that LJN was the worst Nintendo publisher, but I still think Hi-Tech wins. At least there are a few LJN games that are defensible. Also, LJN didn't inflict themselves on PC gaming, unlike Hi-Tech.
I used to think Erin was the girl from the AVGN movie. She looks identical. But I read the cast on Wikipedia, and found out it's not her. Other people had the same assumption.
5:16 Do keep in mind the speed might not have anything to do with an insult. The original gameboy screen was hard to see and the motion made the pixels "bleed" making the problem even worse. It might have something to do with that if the game was an early 90s release.🤷♀️😇
Hi-Tech Expressions is one of those legendary companies (developer or publisher, not sure) that made pretty much exclusively bad games, and almost all weird forgotten licenses! I had a friend go insane about Beethoven on SNES. I never knew about Harley Humongous Adventure but it looks super neat!
I have played the Mega Man game on DOS. We had the Floppy Disc for it at my middle school, while it was hard to play on a Keyboard it wasn't all that bad once you got used to it.
I like the erin bad games series time flies its been a year since u did 5 bad games on the snes wizard of Oz is the worst can't believe mike went through that gauntlet also I like u done other developers other than the Top tier like a Capcom there we go u could do 5 bad games Capcom or Konami or rare
back to the future for NES is better than for c64: it has one puzzle where you have to find several items to set all 4 characters into good mood or something before time limit ends, you spend some time to find out how to trigger every character, but after that, puzzle became just execution task you can do in 1-2 minutes... but nes version you can actually play how would you like to see the game about back to the future? what genre?
Yeaaaaaaa! It was worth the wait for another epic Erin plays vid 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿 it's like waiting on a new summer blockbuster movie to be released. But most of those don't live up to the hype 💯
I rented Harley's Humongous Adventure back in the '90's. I wanted to get to the claymation rat monster on the back of the box. I never did. And the game was so annoying because with some tweaks it could have been good. It leaves you wondering what could've been.
MY SISTER had Barbie for Game Boy, which I played because it was in the house. I remember it being... okay? I had pretty low expectations from a Barbie game made for girls. I think I beat it.
5:00 - That's a bit unfair for a Gameboy game. Many GB games moved slowly because of how badly the screen smeared in motion. Even the GB Castlevania games were notoriously slow for this reason, and I don't think those games were pandering to anyone's inability to play them... it was built around hardware restrictions, just the same as this Barbie game, other issues aside.
Erin and Bad games are a great duo
Hey. did Jem and the holograms ever get their own video game? Bc if they didn't, that'd be truly outrageous!!! Truly, truly, truly outrageous.
Rollergames from Konami was really great
It’s so fun
I enjoyed Tom & Jerry as a kid, but even I had to admit it was rather difficult. The most I've ever gotten was the Tom boss fight in the chimley, I think. I love the 8bit arrangements of Scott Bradley's iconic score.
I also enjoyed the Tom and Jerry game. A great game from Hi Tech is The Hunt for The Red October, so much fun and suspense 😀
That chimney fight was so hard. Even as a kid I knew this game was unfair but I played the NES and gameboy games so much

Beethoven 2 has the rare “Top of Wall Meat” 🤔

I’m glad I’m not the only one that went through that as a kid 😂
Sounds pretty bad.
Over here we had Tom & Jerry for the SNES by the same makers... ... and its just as bad.

When I think of rollerblading games I instantly think about Skitchin on the Genesis.
Big props for adding in Tom and Jerry. That game legitimately made me break controllers lmfao
I'm a DOS aficionado, so definitely revisit the DOS games later if you get the chance.
Yeah it’s unexplored territory for me! 😊
The key thing about Tom and Jerry is mice can fall a surprising distance before actually being hurt.
Glad to see you back, Erin!

Unfortunately it doesn't have unlimited continues.
Great video Erin.

I had that Tom & Jerry game as a kid. I remember thinking it a difficult game. Later levels look a bit better and there are simple boss fights.
Yeah, if I remember correctly it only had 4 levels and they got easier, not harder
"Tom & Jerry" is a good game.

Although I liked the Tom and Jerry NES game I got in form of the typical yellow cartridge for a Famiclone console back in the end of the 90's.
I had to practice quite a few times to get to the more distant levels, such as a living room with a real NES game console as a background object, a level with drill-breakable walls, and an outdoor level with a giant squirrel enemy. The two different level music alternated one after the level completing, at least I didn't get bored of them.

That was a really good Disney series, with the well made hungarian dubs. Gadget Hackwrench got pleasant female voice. 🙂
The parallax on Beethoven was kinda surprising.
Dragons lair on the NES is definitely slower than that Barbi game, that game still haunts me all these years later.
Those glasses are awesome! I thankfully never played any of these games. It sucks that the focus is to "make a game" instead of "make a fun game" a lot of times.

That's pretty dark- barking people and animals to death. Maybe he's just barking them into another dimension.
Ken can book an entire top floor restaurant to himself because he's legit and totally not involved in that shipment of legitimate goods
Beethoven was the first game I thought of when I saw the logo. The game was frustrating. I can’t believe I spent so long playing it as a kid.

MY SISTER had Barbie for Game Boy, which I played because it was in the house. I remember it being... okay? I had pretty low expectations from a Barbie game made for girls. I think I beat it.
I actually enjoyed playing the Barbie game as a kid
5:00 - That's a bit unfair for a Gameboy game. Many GB games moved slowly because of how badly the screen smeared in motion. Even the GB Castlevania games were notoriously slow for this reason, and I don't think those games were pandering to anyone's inability to play them... it was built around hardware restrictions, just the same as this Barbie game, other issues aside.
