childhood memories. I remember, One day i was very sick, was a 10 year old kid. stayed home from school. I played this game while also enjoying a cheese melt sandwich. reached that Snow level. it was awesome.
Ristar had the greatest clear round music and cutscene in the history of gaming. It really felt damn great, after defeating a surreal boss to fly high across the universe onto that sweet melody... Thank you Sega.
Ristar is one of the best games created for the Megadrive/Genesis 16 bit era. The Gfx, music, art and gameplay are top notch. One of those underrated gems indeed.
this message goes to all you ristar fans out there in this version I honestly believe that it's ultimately heartwarming to see ristar reunite with his father
It is! I just played it for the 1st time around 2 years ago (summer, 2021) probably around the time you wrote this comment! I came back to this video cause I'm playing it again and having trouble on the fire level. lol
I mean, sega's always had a good awareness of character and background differenciation. Back when games like this were made, they kinda didn't get that you needed to make everything stand out in its own way so you dont blend everything together. This game does well because everything shines. Well done
Ristar in my opinion is very similar to Dynamite Headdy, belive it or not. Both are yellow, both games features voice samples, both games have great graphics and beautiful music, both characters attack by headbutting, both games got localized in the International version and both games belongs in the category of "best Genesis games".
the valdi system (the official name for ristar's galaxy as seen in the Japan version) must have been impressive to accomplish back then (for the credits)
I'm just in loe with all those intricate animations Ristar has (when destroys a tree log or skids on ice uncontrollably). That was the late genesis game and damn they trully did their best xD
One of the best Platformers ever created. Beloved game... I have the game cartridge and still playing! Unfortunately on my emulator... :( My Mega Drive has lost its power source... :(
Well if you have another mega drive/genesis also play on a crt. Makes some levels background like freon blend together like a proper sunset. It looks really nice.
You guys who has ever played when your childhood..if u remember planet Sonata give your new experience for video game history..till now i cant forget music behind planet sonataa of ristar
Jackson It was discontinued around that time but we still got some major releases in 1996 like Sonic 3D, Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 and Vector Man 2 so it was still possible had they started development straight after this one.
I searched for a full playthrough of this game since I remember being very fond of it but never got to finish it. Now I realize that kid me never even got pass the 1st stage 😂 it's nice to finally see the rest of this game from my childhood
I used to have SONIC ultimate genesis collection and i played this and never beaten it and when i got the mobile ver. I managed to beat the game and i never felt anymore happier😎😎😎😎😎😎

Even me i remember me playing sega games all the time especially when I faked being sick i finished the whol game
@@naaziashaik5758 Good for you because I haven't.
I could only reach the fire planet part, I hate that fucking bird...
I remember when i was like 5 or 6 and i played ristar. I always died on that damn fire level tho. Ugh screw that level
@@MrMillions69 you and me both
Ristar had the greatest clear round music and cutscene in the history of gaming. It really felt damn great, after defeating a surreal boss to fly high across the universe onto that sweet melody... Thank you Sega.
Definitely the most underrated Mega Drive Platformer, still love it to this day !!
Why ? I really like it !
Yea, stupid peoples. Awesome game. Hard work, good soundtracks.
Genisis game?
Underrated eh? Complete copy of this game is like 200 bucks 😂
Fux News I play Quackshot more than Ristar 😂👍🏻
31:31 when I was a kid, I thought that boss was wearing headphones LOL 😂😂😂
ristar is an awesome masterpiece imo and an underrated gem on the 16-bit era
Fabricio Vega !?
I agree. Ristar deserves a sequel!
Arquimedes Gasparotto Junior what!?
Overrated*
Ristar is one of the best games created for the Megadrive/Genesis 16 bit era.
The Gfx, music, art and gameplay are top notch. One of those underrated gems indeed.
Overrated*
Someone said that the night sections of Sonic Unleashed was just 3D Ristar, and boy, were they right on the nose.
27:29 perfect sync with the music
Incredible
No
this message goes to all you ristar fans out there in this version I honestly believe that it's ultimately heartwarming to see ristar reunite with his father
you are so right about that brother
@@classicsonic3504 thank you brother
In the Japanese version, Ristar has a mom who happened to be a goddess.
@@poweroffriendship2.0 Ristar comes from good stock, then. One parent is a deity, the other a legendary hero!
I feel like this game is finally getting the attention that it deserves and I love it
Great news: It's included in the Sega Genesis Mini 2!
It is! I just played it for the 1st time around 2 years ago (summer, 2021) probably around the time you wrote this comment! I came back to this video cause I'm playing it again and having trouble on the fire level. lol
I playa than gamer
Let's pray that it is one of the franchises that SEGA brings back :''c
This game is a underrated masterpiece seriously the game really needed a sequel.
Maybe, Sega will be remaking the first Ristar game to boost up Ristar's popularity before working on the sequel.
I remember getting this brand new for my birthday as a kid. Great memories, the soundtrack alone brings a nostalgic tear to my eye.

Planet Scortch was terrible 😮💨
I always come back to watch this like a damn movie cause of how much I love the charm this game has
Same...
Me too
Such a classic memory. Renting this game for the weekend, falling in love and then renting it over and over and over again!
It's criminal that this never became a franchise. A real shame.
quite possibly my all-time favorite Sega Genesis game.
you can get this game on your phone I think www. happy bay. com if you really want to... but it's not the same as playing on a controller
Shinobi III baby! ⚔️
It’s in Sega forever baby
@@killertheinfiltrator It's in both Sega Genesis and Sega Forever
One of the greatest platformers and character ever made one of my favorite games of all time I wish Sega brought this wonderful gem back
Stay after the credits, you'll get something cute ;)
That was super cute 😍
:0
One day ristar you will be recognized and brought back from the depths
I hope
The music when you finish a level is so damn good.
Ristar is one of my favourite video game characters of all time :')

Yeah, maybe that's why both games are two of my favorite games of all times
Yes, dynamite headdy and ristar are my favorite sega games :D
We need more Ristar games, this masterpiece deserves a cool new game
11:20
This soundtrack automatically unlocked all my hidden memory segments about my early childhood.
Man, what a game that was 😭
i remember playing this 10 years back, i know im pretty late to the scene but this is still hella nostalgic
If forced to choose I would pick Ristar as my all time favorite Sega Genesis game.
really?? -_-
*****
all time best ever tho........ : / ?
I'm not saying it's the best game ever. Just saying it's my favorite.
*****
alright, respected just asking
1:14:55 Never saw again such a badass entrance into a stage
Same
I remember when I beat the game.😊
the valdi system (the official name for ristar's galaxy as seen in the Japan version) must have been impressive to accomplish back then (for the credits)
One of the best Sega Mega drive / Genesis games and I love it
The Mega Drive was a beast for it's age it was only 3 years newer than the Master System but graphics are miles better.
This game and Dynamite Headdy are underrated. Sega should not focus only in doing Sonic games.
Yeah, I've had enough with the Sonic games! It's literally time to move on!
Man this game is fucking awesome
I'm just in loe with all those intricate animations Ristar has (when destroys a tree log or skids on ice uncontrollably). That was the late genesis game and damn they trully did their best xD
Sega's answer to Kirby, and also Klonoa: DtP before Klonoa: DtP.
One of the best Genesis/MD games, just awesome!
Who here is replaying this on the Switch?
I played it on switch, steam, and xbox 360
And mobile too
1:21:04 Did Sega really pull a Terminator?!
Ristar: Hasta la vista, baby!
Yeah (':
@@squishy_lincoln_uwu que asco gacha life
Xd
Haha
@@MAXMAX567maxmaxpvzgw I don't speak Spanish
The way Ristar murders his enemies is actually quite brutal
I adore this game.
I love this game so much
OMG Ristar is so CUTE! ^•^
He might be able to rival kirby
game from my childhood, I got a little emotional
Yes
Oh, i remember Ristar! I loved this game so much)
Thank you!
The music in this game is just amazing especially boss fight music
this game was so fun when i was a kid! omg this brings back memories and at the same time makes me feel old asf!
>sprite rotation on some obstacles
10/10 best game of the year
I LOVED this game I miss it so so much I wish I still had my geniuses.
Genesis*
*Genisis*
Hey, ristar is available on appstore now :D
I can't believe Sega didn't include this in the Sega Genesis Mini
The ATgames version does have Ristar though.
@@fortunequestventures (chuckles) I'm in danger
Now it's in the second Genesis Mini.
This game was my legit childhood
Ristar is awesome!! :D
Man I’ve loved this game for years!
Love this game. I didn't passed 100% but the game was fun!
I always got so excited playing this game, especially Freon for that music :) childhood memories~
One of the best Platformers ever created. Beloved game... I have the game cartridge and still playing! Unfortunately on my emulator... :( My Mega Drive has lost its power source... :(
Well if you have another mega drive/genesis also play on a crt. Makes some levels background like freon blend together like a proper sunset. It looks really nice.
sadly electronics age and die like we do
Hot Take- Ristar is a better game than most of the classic Sonics
Hell yeah say that a little louder for the people in the back
YEAH 👍
i dont ever remember getting past this level when i was young in the 90's
Which one?
You guys who has ever played when your childhood..if u remember planet Sonata give your new experience for video game history..till now i cant forget music behind planet sonataa of ristar
Ristar is like sonic the hedgehog and super Mario mixed together.
This made my day!!!
The way Ristar came back saying, "DAD" is heart warming
this brings back so much memories
12 years since I played this game as a kid... One thing is I remember after all I went through is the music and how I was stuck on a lvl. Planet 3
agreed
Aggreed
Forever in my heart
That Planet Sonata boss is such simple genius
This Brings Me Good Memories
this game is a legend......thanks 4 playing....
Am I the only one tear up when the credit song plays and the ending of Ristar uniting with his father :') ?
this is peace.
love the tunes in this game
Ristar could have gotten a sequel on the Game Boy Advance in 2004.
rescuehero942 really?
Out of all things, GBA? Ew
rescuehero942 No Sega Saturn would have been perfect due to its 2D power or hell even a sequel on Mega Drive in 1996.
I'm sure the Genesis was discontinued around that time, so that wouldn't have been a possibility.
Jackson It was discontinued around that time but we still got some major releases in 1996 like Sonic 3D, Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 and Vector Man 2 so it was still possible had they started development straight after this one.
I searched for a full playthrough of this game since I remember being very fond of it but never got to finish it. Now I realize that kid me never even got pass the 1st stage 😂 it's nice to finally see the rest of this game from my childhood
Another one of my favorite sega games
Ristar is cool and other Sega real cartridges are cool!
This game is awesome plus it deserves a sequel
I thought I imagined this but it’s very real 😭❤
Loved your gameplay, thank you.
Dude, you can see in the creatures eyes , what a Evil main character means.... Killing with a freaking head bump death hug... lol
When I was a kid I thought the bosses in this game were so badass. Especially the hammerhead and the mole
Yeah you're right 😎
I’m glad it’s included on Sonic Mega Collection and Plus.
KWFun Channel True that.
@KWFun Channel They didn't do it, it was another development team that is often confused with Sonic Team.
Yes
Don't mess with the star kiddo.
I played his game and it was awesome
this game is pretty tough! you damn skilled!
Mi infancia en un vídeo 👌❤️
no new games gives me as many emotions as this star gave me.
And let the memories flood
I loved this game as a kid.
Indeed, this game kicks major ass in so many different galactic Levels. good O'l Sega Genesis games. The Best!
Amazing... NOICE!
I used to have SONIC ultimate genesis collection and i played this and never beaten it and when i got the mobile ver. I managed to beat the game and i never felt anymore happier😎😎😎😎😎😎
D sides has brought me here.
Same
ristar jumpscare
Same
I knew and played this game before D-Sides but this game is amazing
indimensional space terrors when a goofy lil creature from some random ass planet begins to hunt them down (their fate is sealed)
i honestly find it amusing when a video game's plot boils down to "cute lifeform kills eldritch being"
best quality sound ive heard in a minute
OMG....i remember this game when i was 13 years old
My childhood game.
This guy's beast at this game.
A tree-hugging Sonic!
57:07 This is possibly one of the funniest sounds in any game ever
I think before the credits he says: hasta la vista baby
If he says so, reference to Terminator
