    Oh the nostalgia. As a late 20s male I'm embarrassed to admit the Lizzie McGuire movie is still one of my go to films when I'm feeling down.

    Lizzie McGuire 3 looked like an awful WarioWare clone.

      I bought a GBA last year that promised to come with one game, and that was the game. And you're right. That's exactly what it is.

    Ah, the classic late 90s/early 2000s cash-in games where nothing makes any sense. THQ and Acclaim were the masters of that.

    • @BoratWanksta
      @BoratWanksta 4 роки тому +1

      Acclaim definitely did SO MANY games like that, over the years! And you're right, that THQ did that almost as often. And after Acclaim stopped existing as a company, that THQ took over the role of the company doing that the most.

  • @boilerfan18
    @boilerfan18 4 роки тому +30

    That was definitely a problem with licensed games and games for girls, they didn’t care much about what was in the game and just relied on the brand name attached. And I forgot about Lizzie premiering right after Zenon, Disney sure wanted the show to be a hit.

      I read some of the articles written in that era about girl games, and they felt like they were written by aliens, who heard of this "human female" but clearly had no direct interaction, just some superficial observation. It's like if I were to make a game for guys, and I heard that they like trucks and Batman and made a game about a truck moving on screen collecting Batmans or something

    One of my cousins was really into Lizzie and I remember one Christmas season when I was at TOYS R US for Black Friday my aunt begged me to get her daughter these games. I told her not to because they were bad and just because it was LM didn't mean my cousin would like them. The $5 price tag wasn't helpful either. Christmas came, my cousin played for 10min, and never again lol.

    As far as Disney bringin back Lizzie Mcquire is not surprising given that they gave Boy meets World and That’s So Raven their own Disney channel spinoffs. Why not give Lizzie Mcquire a spin-off??

    Great Episode Erin. I remember watching "Lizzie Maguire" when it was on Disney back in the days, one episode I remember is the one that took place during Halloween, where Lizzie and the gang pull that prank on Kate. Yeah, apparently not even "Lizzie Maguire" wasn't safe from corporate greed. So these games exist, I will say, even though I've never played any of these games and second one does look tolerable, they definitely had no reason to exist, aside from cashing in on a popular sitcom.

    Zombies Ate My Neighbors has a mall level. State of emergency for the PS2 and others starts inside a mall. Also, the game Zombi, released for various computers in 1986 almost entirely takes place inside a mall. It's an adventure game based on the 1978 Dawn of the Dead.

    @unknowndeoxys00 4 роки тому +1

    I was a victim of the "girl games." Lizzie on the Go was seriously one of my "favorites," and I have an embarrassingly disproportionate amount of Disney-branded GBA games to anything else. Definitely a lot of greater video games, even for the GBA, that I missed out on growing up with- due to that "boy" connotation, and just being plain ignorant about gaming as a kid.
    Well if anything is to be redeemed from those poor games, is that I did have some fun little memories of playing them. I did that fashion quiz over and over bc I had fun reading those final judgments lol. I turned into a mix of geek and Kate as an adult ☻

    • @ErinPlays

    @DarDarBinks1986 4 роки тому +1

    I'm on the older end of the Gen Y spectrum, too young for the NES and 7800 and an infant during the launch of the Master System. For me, it was all about Clarissa Explains It All and Beavis & Butt-Head. My mom didn't want me watching B&BH but it didn't stop me from drinking it in with my older (Read: Middle and late Gen X) cousins. That show completely changed my notions of what a cartoon could be and I respect it to this day.
    That said, why the hell can't developers get it right with these licensed games? They sure couldn't back in the '90s and 2000s. Not even in the '80s, as LJN's track record shows. I don't count E.T. on the 2600 because it doesn't seem like a BAD game. I saw that documentary about the E.T. burial and excavation. E.T. doesn't seem to have been buried because it was shit. People saw it as a shitty game because it was buried in that landfill in Alamogordo, NM. The only exceptions seem to be most of the Star Wars games, probably due to the nature of that franchise. I sure as fuck loved Shadows of the Empire.

    I was shocked 😲 that they were bringing it back but since they did with that's so Raven with Raven's home, why not Lizzie McGuire? I know Hilary is going to do a great job with it again. I hope they also bring back even Stevens and Phil of the future. I loved that show. I also thought Hannah Montana was pretty good and even shake it up. looks like the 3rd game turned into warioware all of a sudden. by the way since it's Friday the 13th, did Jason Voorhees show up yet at your house 🏠 Erin?
