Yup, same here. Also remember that Doom railshooter game that used the gyroscope to aim? I actually really enjoyed that! Man, I really hope those games get emulated some day and don’t just vanish into digital dust.

@@KillThad I don't think it was an automatic M rating, but getting an M rating was pretty easy with FPS games. Prime example being Halo CE which falls more in line with the T rating than the M rating it got.

It was explained that the game series as a whole was meant to be in FPS but that would've bumped the rating up to M for the home consoles and Lego wasn't gonna have that. The ESRB can be full of crap depending on trends.

How...what? James Bond has literally always had a Teen rating, why the fuck would Bionicle get an M slapped on it? Most Bond games even have the blood gunbarrel thing when you die and they still don't get an M.

The DS was underutilized when it came to FPS games. I always thought the 2nd screen would be great for a map and weapon switching. Imagine a port of Doom I and II like that!!
Hearing him talk about Renegade Kid hurts. In 2016, Hargrove and Watsham announced RK was done and they were going their own ways. Watsham made Atooi LLC and got all 2D based games (mutant mudds) and Hargrove's Infitzimo got 3D games, Dementium and Moon. However, earlier this year Watsham reported that his longtime friend Gregg Hargrove passed away from a tough battle with pancreatic cancer. :(
I remember when I just watched that video 3 minutes ago and somebody suggested doing a DS version of it and he said he was considering it and 2 videos down he did. Now I’m here. Great stuff.
I learned a lot today, as someone who found themselves with a copy of Metroid Prime Hunters for the DS in 2015, and then became slightly OBSESSED with finding other good FPSs for the 3DS. Believe it or not, after the DS, only a few FPSs were ever released in the 3DSs lifespan, to my knowledge. Two of them were literal remasters of Moon and Dementium, and the other... well, Metroid fans dare not talk about it, unfortunately. :(
"Because I like when devs demake things- like _Driv3r_ and _Max Payne_ on GBA. However most normal people probably don't care."* Oh look, a kindred spirit. *[Paraphrased]
To date, in all of recorded history, there have been like... three confirmed unprovoked wolf attacks on humans. Leave it to the hunting game to mess up wolves...
14:28 I work at a simulation company here in Orlando and the artist that sits next to me worked on this game at NSpace (RIP NSpace, and RIP HALO Megablox. What a shame...). His biggest feature in the game was making the assets for the Hoover Dam level, both the interior and exterior. The hardest part was dealing with the programmers for the level consistently coming back to his team to have the vertex count and textures crunched down over and over due to performance issues when 5+ characters were on the screen at once since the DS's processing power was being hogged by the AI. It took a LOT of convincing to push back the work onto programming to optimize their work, but there was no actions taken to try to bump the texture sizes back up, so what we see now is what the finished product was whereas it was even better quality beforehand. You were also on the snow level where on one of the banks on the side of the map you can actually hide in the snow. It was a displacement map bug that was never patched since it wasn't really discovered until late in it's life. 19:08 Oh yeah, he worked on this one too as a level editor for the Zombies mode. It's been months since he showed me the work for that one, so I don't remember what map he worked on. :c I'll have to show him this video tomorrow. It'll probably be nostalgic for him.
If you are still in contact with him, please tell him I said thank you for his work. I grew up with Mobilized and Black Ops on DS. They helped make my childhood and were very well made gamed. So yeah, that's about it :)
There was alot of mechanics and rooms thar had no use watsoever in the game. It was developed along a sims 2 version for gba and ds, and those 3 games feel rushed and unpolished.
Really now? That really, really sucks. I remember having a day at my tiny school where the basketball team left, and basically left us nerds at the school with like 2 teachers and I installed my copy on the brand new iPads in the classroom. Played 4 player coop zombies like the whole day lol. Got in trouble for it afterwards and had to remove all my info and got all the students griped at for installing stuff on them but hey, it was worth it :D Hard to believe that was nearly 10 years ago...

Shout-out to the COD DS community. In the golden age, we were quite a lively few. Between WaW and MW3, I had ton of fun playing online multiplayer with my pals. We had teams, teamwars, forums, a really nice and sympathetic community. 2009-2011 was really something man, it gave me amazing memories. I wish I could play WaW again and go back in 2009.
iOS WAW zombies was so good the difficulty was scaled down a mad amount. I remember round 40 der reise on the school bus, and the cool kids at the back wanting me to play It's been off stores for a long time only blops remains with some odd level design changes in kino I remember.

Unlike 3DS/Vita-gen, DS and PSP had so many fun first person shooters! I really love those technical achievements in FPS genre they squeezed out of both DS and PSP back then. Great times!
I recently discovered your channel through UA-cam recommendations, and I just want to say, I've really enjoyed pretty much everything I've seen so far. Even for these mini-reviews you go pretty in depth, and break down a lot of aspects of a game that I would never normally think about. Very glad I found your channel.
Gudday Peter. I think I'm probably twice your age, but I really like your low key nice way of presenting. Kudos young man! Also, for me, in my age and place (country Australia), I didn't get access to these smanzy panz consoles (I bought a used Commodore 64 by winning a writing competition and selling a motorbike in 1988) that city slickers had. Thanks so much buddy.
I never played CoD Zombies on iPod Touch, but I remember my friends were all about it in high school. A few classmates were even playing it during our graduation ceremony.
Moon is a pile of wasted potential. Great graphics for the platform, solid controls, decent weapons, interesting gimmicks. But its level and enemy design is just soooo boring and the end was extremely anticlimactic. This made the whole thing feel like a very long tech demo instead of a full game. Also, I'd rate Bionicle higher. It has different weapon skills for secrets (megamanesque in 3D), bland but pretty vast terrain, funny cheats and surprisingly okay boss fights (I'd argue only Metroid and Dementium 2 had better ones) and I personally had no issues with the controls.
with rouge agent i would adopt a crab claw type grip. using my pinkie to fire R while still holding the stylus. it would create cramp very easily but i still beat the game. not a bad little shooter. but the dementium games were on another level
I wonder who plays all those hunt sims. They are like: "I'm bored of shooting fantastic monsters and humans with all those cool guns, I want to shoot a deer with a rifle"
I remember playing rogue agent and i played it everyday and everytime is started the game i had to do everything from the beginning, i didn't even mind it at all i just played it and i had a lot of fun, great memories
being left-handed deprived me of enjoying these games back in the day. Now I probably could remap some of these to the right analog stick on the emulator but why bother now right Funny thing, but not really related: I bought Kid Icarus Uprising for the 3DS knowing it would be an ass to play using the stylus with the wrong hand, and thanks to the base that came with the package, I've managed to beat the game and for a while I almost learned how to write with the right hand, since it got a lot more efficient after hours playing the game.
Moon was actually later remastered on the 3DS, with the base game being released as "Episode 1" and subsequent episodes being entirely new Moon games. Dementium II was also remastered for the PC on steam. I wonder how these games fared; I bought the 3DS version of Moon ep1 but didn't play it before my 3DS broke :P.
Quake 1 had a genuinely surprisingly excellent homebrew DS port that I played a lot of as a kid. It was easily my most-played DS game for a while when I was 10 or so. I think that Xash3D works to get HL1 working on the DS too but I’m not sure
You forgot to mention that Agent Goldeneye is also working for Auric Goldfinger and that he was the one who originally implanted the eye into the hero. xD
I loved the DS Call of Duty games They did a decent job of translating some of the experience from the console and PC games, while doing their own thing.
i had rogue agent, and its selling point was definitely running an 8-player deathmatch over download play. i had a bus ride in 5th grade that was about 3 hours and this was truly the hit of the trip, along me and the gang visiting each others animal crossing towns for fishing. i got people i barely knew in on it. funnily, i used the face button aiming precisely because the strap felt bad and the stylus prevented decent use of both guns, i had already gotten used to that style of aiming from Quake 3 on the dreamcast. lots of dreamcast and psp games did something similar
Multiplayer Metroid Prime Hunters was amazing to play. It felt like playing Unreal Tournament on a portable device. The character diversity was great, with the unique/special weapons and buffs that came with those weapons for their respective Hunter. The morph ball abilities were also great for each Hunter and the maps were suprisingly large, often too large for 4 players. I wish there was a sequel on the 3DS of at least the multiplayer!
i remember asking my 2 years older brother to buy me the goldeneye game because i was too young xD and i always had a very weird way with the controls. I used my pinky to shot the left gun because i held the pen in my left. And I even played through the whole King Kong game. And I loved them both :3
I literally only played COD Zombies on my ipod touch. I got up to round 52 on Der Reise solo, then my parents finally bought me a 360 for christmas, and I was soooo shook by the difficulty that I couldn't get past the third round until weeks later.
DUDE CORE WAS FANTASTIC. I used to play with one of my friends in the local multiplayer. I don't recall much about the single player, but I definitely remember having a fun time with the Local Multiplayer.
I was so scared you were going to say something good about the King Kong game haha. Also one of the worst PSP games, I think it may be a port of the DS version which makes it worse (it looks ugly enough).
@@MLWJ1993 the 360 had the best version - which they ported to PC but the port is a bit shoddy. Fantastic game wherever you play it though! Except handhelds lmao
I actually owned Goldeneye Rogue Agent, MW3, and BO1 for DS, and loved all of them! MW3 for DS actually has a completely different storyline than MW3 on console.
8:28 If I remember correctly, Jon Burton, who worked on the console ports (can't remember if it was the PS2 or 360) of Bionicle Heroes, mentioned that during this time period, pretty much anything that was first person would get a minimum rating of TEEN (T) by the ESRB. Bionicle Heroes was going to be first person on the consoles as well but was changed to third person so it could get the E for EVERYONE badge.
COD 4 on the DS was the first FPS game I ever played. I loved that game and must have completed it at least 20 times. I also played the MW3 port a few years later but I remember not liking it at all as I kept running into a bug that stopped me from progressing.
Im sad no one knows about CORE. The local multiplayer was amazing! Not only did it play like Quake or Unreal Tournament, but you only needed 1 copy to play with three other people! You weren't even locked out of content! everyone could play all the multiplayer modes with 1 cartridge! It was sick!
I'm two years late but holy fuck I remember that. How in the hell was the mobile COD Zombies port so good? Literally used to binge that shit back in the day
Wait dude Golden eye HAS something to do with goldeneye. It's an alternate universe where James Bond dies and you take his place, but you're a more violent agent basically. He dies in a helicopter crash at the beginning of the first mission.

I remember playing rogue agent and i played it everyday and everytime is started the game i had to do everything from the beginning, i didn't even mind it at all i just played it and i had a lot of fun, great memories
being left-handed deprived me of enjoying these games back in the day. Now I probably could remap some of these to the right analog stick on the emulator but why bother now right
Funny thing, but not really related: I bought Kid Icarus Uprising for the 3DS knowing it would be an ass to play using the stylus with the wrong hand, and thanks to the base that came with the package, I've managed to beat the game and for a while I almost learned how to write with the right hand, since it got a lot more efficient after hours playing the game.
Moon was actually later remastered on the 3DS, with the base game being released as "Episode 1" and subsequent episodes being entirely new Moon games. Dementium II was also remastered for the PC on steam. I wonder how these games fared; I bought the 3DS version of Moon ep1 but didn't play it before my 3DS broke :P.
Quake 1 had a genuinely surprisingly excellent homebrew DS port that I played a lot of as a kid. It was easily my most-played DS game for a while when I was 10 or so. I think that Xash3D works to get HL1 working on the DS too but I’m not sure
"Remember CoD Zombies for iOS?" "Yeah I 'member!"
Just start your videos with 'My friends'
hello
"My name's minimme, my name's actually Peter" isn't bad though.
I'm pretty sure Goose trademarked that one
1:13 I remember my mum buying me this exact DS in 2004 for my 14th birthday, she imported it into Australia from Lik sang (rip).
You forgot to mention that Agent Goldeneye is also working for Auric Goldfinger and that he was the one who originally implanted the eye into the hero. xD
I loved the DS Call of Duty games
They did a decent job of translating some of the experience from the console and PC games, while doing their own thing.
Are you the voice over guy for Danger Doland from like, 3 or 4 years ago?
i had rogue agent, and its selling point was definitely running an 8-player deathmatch over download play. i had a bus ride in 5th grade that was about 3 hours and this was truly the hit of the trip, along me and the gang visiting each others animal crossing towns for fishing. i got people i barely knew in on it. funnily, i used the face button aiming precisely because the strap felt bad and the stylus prevented decent use of both guns, i had already gotten used to that style of aiming from Quake 3 on the dreamcast. lots of dreamcast and psp games did something similar
I enjoy playing the zombies mode on the ds cod. That's about the only good way to play. The campaign is pretty glitchy.
PSP ftw I want a solid gold one like Kenny had on South Park well gold plated
where is sims 2 ports?
I love that used Driver music in the background.
Multiplayer Metroid Prime Hunters was amazing to play. It felt like playing Unreal Tournament on a portable device. The character diversity was great, with the unique/special weapons and buffs that came with those weapons for their respective Hunter. The morph ball abilities were also great for each Hunter and the maps were suprisingly large, often too large for 4 players. I wish there was a sequel on the 3DS of at least the multiplayer!
Amazing job with this channel! keep up the good work, you inspire me to be a better youtuber :)
:)
Thanks :)
i remember asking my 2 years older brother to buy me the goldeneye game because i was too young xD
and i always had a very weird way with the controls. I used my pinky to shot the left gun because i held the pen in my left.
And I even played through the whole King Kong game. And I loved them both :3
A cool thing about the World at War DS game is I remember it having a British campaign, something which wasn’t in the original game.
Ds share play w/ Metroid on the school bus was integral to my childhood
Awesome list, I'm glad both Dementium games are on here but what about games like Dead and Furious? Do on rail FPS's technically not count?
Nope. Your real name is “minimme” Not that Peter kid..
I literally only played COD Zombies on my ipod touch. I got up to round 52 on Der Reise solo, then my parents finally bought me a 360 for christmas, and I was soooo shook by the difficulty that I couldn't get past the third round until weeks later.
DUDE CORE WAS FANTASTIC. I used to play with one of my friends in the local multiplayer. I don't recall much about the single player, but I definitely remember having a fun time with the Local Multiplayer.
I was so scared you were going to say something good about the King Kong game haha. Also one of the worst PSP games, I think it may be a port of the DS version which makes it worse (it looks ugly enough).
The PS2 & GCN games were amazing though. Never played it on PC which might be even better.
@@MLWJ1993 the 360 had the best version - which they ported to PC but the port is a bit shoddy. Fantastic game wherever you play it though! Except handhelds lmao
Nah the PSP version was entirely different from the DS version and really fun. It was a port of the PS2 version only missing a level or 2.
Fuck, I wish so much that Renegade Kid had been willing to license that engine to an actually-talented studio. :(
Having a fancy glass display cabinet packed hap-haphazardly with shit seems like something I would do too lol.
GTA Advance menu theme at the intro... Spotted a man of culture.
a good way to start a video is to say " hey all, scott here" ........ wait that might already have been taken.
"hey guys, it's Austin"
I hate that scott try to make jokes all the time, so annoying.
Hey there friends, my name is Minime, and today we're doing something a little bit different.
Originality > imitation
"Hello everybody. My name is Markiplier"
My brother and I were homeschooled and any extra time we had we played world at war zombies on our iPod Touch via Bluetooth. It was fun af.
I actually owned Goldeneye Rogue Agent, MW3, and BO1 for DS, and loved all of them! MW3 for DS actually has a completely different storyline than MW3 on console.
I gotta ask, why did you showcase Dementium 1 instead of 2 in your graphical DS showcase video? Either way, love your videos
I love the Driver tune in the background..nice vid lad
I remember Cabela 2011. Asked for Drawn to Life for Christmas (game had been out for a few years at that time) and ended up getting that game.
If I heard the game's name correctly, Dementium 2's animations and fps in general seems really smooth.
I played so much Metroid prime hunters online back in the day. Really enjoyed it.
“Who has friends when you have a UA-cam channel” yep, can relate
Hey, my names minimme. My names actually peter 🤣🤣🤣 that intro was GOLD!
8:28 If I remember correctly, Jon Burton, who worked on the console ports (can't remember if it was the PS2 or 360) of Bionicle Heroes, mentioned that during this time period, pretty much anything that was first person would get a minimum rating of TEEN (T) by the ESRB. Bionicle Heroes was going to be first person on the consoles as well but was changed to third person so it could get the E for EVERYONE badge.
I remember that. Switching the cabinet on Nacht to the flame thrower was OP as all hell
Missed you, the guy with all the awesome GBA FPS videos! :D
COD 4 on the DS was the first FPS game I ever played. I loved that game and must have completed it at least 20 times. I also played the MW3 port a few years later but I remember not liking it at all as I kept running into a bug that stopped me from progressing.
I remember a ds game was like a arcade zombie shooter you are a inmate in a prision you can upgrade weapons and have boss figth
i remember playing black ops 1 on my DS on the way to school. thanks for the flashbacks mate 👌🏼
Im sad no one knows about CORE. The local multiplayer was amazing! Not only did it play like Quake or Unreal Tournament, but you only needed 1 copy to play with three other people! You weren't even locked out of content! everyone could play all the multiplayer modes with 1 cartridge! It was sick!
I'm two years late but holy fuck I remember that. How in the hell was the mobile COD Zombies port so good? Literally used to binge that shit back in the day
Odd that Silent Hill was inspired by Jacob's Ladder and Dementium has a Jacob's Ladder-esque ending.
Holy shit they actually got B-real from Cypress Hill on the paint ball rap at 6:24
I remember that. It’s pretty fuckin sad that it’s not on the App Store anymore
Final boss fight for hunters was fun on both phases.
Oh man, I used to play Black Ops and WaW all the time on the DS. They were surprisingly good and I feel worthy of a playthrough. I even 100% them.
I notice that GTA Advance title theme in the background.
Wait dude
Golden eye HAS something to do with goldeneye. It's an alternate universe where James Bond dies and you take his place, but you're a more violent agent basically. He dies in a helicopter crash at the beginning of the first mission.
I still remember playing Goldeneye in summer school with a group of buddies back in 9th or 10th grade. Those were the days.
