Great video once again, dude. I am really getting a kick out of these featuring more obscure titles as always. Actually just picked up Yoda Stories in the big box the other day, looking forward to trying it out finally!
The good old Yoga Stories, spent hours on it when I was really young. Loved it as well as Indiana Jones and his desktop adventures!
"Teräs Käsi" is Finnish and means "Steel Hand" :D
I'm glad to know Finnish was spoken in a galaxy far far away ;)
I guess that’s similar to tekken which means iron fist in English.
Night Shift is probably one of the strangest uses of the Star Wars license that comes to mind. The game revolved around keeping a factory that manufactures Star Wars toys running smoothly. It was actually quite a lot of fun.
My memory of obscure star wars games is Star Wars: Droid Works, a puzzle/learning game that I eventually couldn't beat because I got stuck on the last level.
Thanks for sharing, I had never heard of most of these games.
Great episode as always man! Really liked it. And thanks for letting me know you where making this before you uploaded, cool of you. Here's my History of Star Wars part 1 for anyone interested - The History of Star Wars Video Games - Part 1: The 80's - it's a very different style to this one, I'm going through everyone from start to finish! Currently up to part 2 :)
We ran Masters of Teras Kasi in a random tournament at a local anime convention. The best part about it was the audience chanting, "HOAR! HOAR! HOAR!" and people wondering what the hell is going on.
I had so much fun cooperatively playing Star Wars: Jedi Power Battles.
It played almost like a3D Double Dragon with lightsabers.
Probably doesn't hold up today but I have fond memories.
I always love your videos focusing on more obscure titles. You have a great collection!
Great video MJR! Just finished watching Glenn Plant's "Month of Star Wars" and was looking to get back into the series. Totally forgot about some of these games. Thanks again for shedding some light on them!
I always loved Star Wars Rebellion for the PC and I rarely hear that one talked about.
That t-shirt.
Anyway, i remember the Indiana Jones version of the Yoda Stories game, too. Those games were really repetitive, since the screens were not really randomized, but put together in a different order.
This is so awesome- great episode Metal Jesus, a few of these i had never heard of. Good call on the psp one, lethal alliance. I love the dark forces games, gonna have to check that one out now for myself
Just found your channel and the combinaton of metal&video games is awesome keep up the vids man im subbing.
I used to love Star Wars: Demolition on PS1, but then I lent it to my friend and he broke the disc. As retribution, he gave me Mission Impossible (without the jewel case and booklet).
Looking back, that was more of an insult than an apology.
Rebel Assault, the Empire Strikes Back arcade cabinet, Jango Fett , the clone wars, the PC port of the Star Wars arcade game, the weird Star Wars NES games, Jedi Arena for the 2600, and Star Wars pinball. Republic Commando, and the xwing series are hidden gems but loved by fans.
I have so many good memories with Masters of the Teras Kasi! I get that it was dumb, but man was it fun to play on the couch with a friend!
Metal Jesus rocks
Some quite obscure games there, will have to check some of them out - great video.
Did you ever heard of Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds?
It's basically a Star Wars RTS made using the Age Of Empires 2 engine.
Love the list man! Some of those look crazy lol.
Question... did you ever play the Descent series? Those were great gems for me. If you made a video on those that would be awesome!
Hey MJR, I've almost finished my Star Wars Game collection, thanks for this awesome video mate.
I remember playing Yoda Stories as a kid, great video!
Thank you sir, well researched and well presented.
I actually owned and still own both Star Wars Monopoly and Star Wars Demolition. Got them both back in the day when I was growing up. Fun games. Awesome vid as always, MJR!
Great Vid as always Jason ! Just watched this as I'm about to finish work with a strong coffee ! :-) Great start to the weekend ! Now for something stronger ! ;-)
I have KOTOR on my iPad and although I'd love to get into it, I just don't like turn based fighting systems.
Metal Jesus ... I just finished listening to the latest All Gen Gamers podcast today.
You fellas are great ... thanks for the show.
Keep smiling ... it confuses 'em!
Great video! I love collecting all Star Wars games.
I'm actually glad you covered SW: Demolition, was looking to get a Dreamcast and saw that game was on it.
STAR WARS Demolition is a very interesting concept for SW game.
MetalJesus is awesome. And always positive.
So glad I found him. Fav youtuber!!
Jedi Power Battles for PS1 and Dreamcast is one of my favorite star wars games of all time and it doesn't get enough love
Star Wars monopoly was one of my favorite games growing up and i had the same board in real life.
More Star Wars games videos, this was awesome!!!
a game I liked that doesn't get much mentioned is starwars bounty hunter. you play as jango fett and ties up a few things between episode 1 and 2
Star Wars Episode 1 for PSX/PC comes to mind. It didn't get great reviews, but there are people who still play the game to this day. The Tattooine levels were just a great mix of RPG and Free Roaming. The fact that you could talk to anyone and kill anyone made the level really fun. There are some really funny videos scattered around UA-cam of things you can do and say in the game.
I loved Star Wars Chess as a kid.I liked seeing the animations. Yeah, it is slow but I didn't mind too much.
Star Wars Demolition is one of my favorites!
Rogue Squadron seems to be very enjoyable from my childhood memories. Used to love playing it on the PC, and i rarely hear anyone discuss that one.
Thanks for the honest review ... checking out tiny death star now
Here's a rare one. Star wars galactic assault.
It's like doom but star wars. It was a shareware game that came out in the mid 90s
95 or 97.
For some reason I thought you had posted this just this week and I was like "he shaved off the goatee!" and I thought I was missing out on something :)
One of the strangest Star Wars games I've ever played is called Gungan Frontier on the PC. It's sort of like a weird terraforming/evolution thing (think a *really* primitive version of Spore). It was never my cup of tea, although I wonder if others had a different experience? Awesome video, by the way! I love Demolition.
OMFG MY INTERNET STOPPED AND CUT OUT JUST AS YOU SAID "It's Not" I'M CRYING
i say the forgotten star wars game i played was bounty hunter and it was a fun third person shooter / exploration in some levels but over all i had a blast with it on the gamecube
Idk as a small child I couldn't get enough of that Star Wars chess game, loved the way they put the animations in.
Demolition! As a kid I remember seeing it only once when I was very young but I somehow, I've never forgotten it.
Really dig these videos
Love that Revolver inspired t-shirt...cool!
I played a lot of the Star Wars Chess on our DOS machine when I was little. It looked like it was running WAY slower than I remember on yours.
Also played a crapload of Yoda Stories...it was great for messing around.
Star Wars: Rebellion ...you missed it...it is a forgotten one !
I played the Masters of Teras Kasi with my neighbors. We played it for like 10 minutes and never talked about ti again.
My favourite Star Wars game is probably Mysteries Of The Sith - classic! Btw, you ever going to do a part 2 to your 80s metal bands video? I'd love to see that if you ever got the time.
Hey man, where did you get that shirt, I must get one! Awesome videos, thanks for posting these!
Awesome as usual
I completely forgot about the Star Wars fighting game for the Playstation. You just brought back bad memories of renting it as a child & being stuck with it over the weekend. That's when I learned that, just because it had the Star Wars license, doesn't mean it's automatically going to be a good game.
Glad you covered Yoda stories! I played that, but forgot the name.
There was a puzzle game that came out back around Episode one, Star Wars Pit Droids I think.
There was also an "interactive story book" that came out around the same time.
And a personal favourite where you worked on a Jawa Sandcrawler making droids. But I can't find record of any of these games on wikipedia.
There was a Star Wars game for the European version of the RCA Studio II - believed to be the first Star Wars video game, no one can seem to ascertain if it was officially licensed or not.
My all time favorite is the old atari, stand up arcade cabinet with wire frame graphics! I'm glad you said demolition! That game rocked! I loved masters of teris kasi to. It was a good game to play a with others plus all the extra outfits you could unlock(like Lea's slave outfit). I was sorry to see that you didn't cover Rebel Assault II. That was a rocking game to!
I loved that Starwars Monopoly game. Plus I would like to say that Star Wars Masters of Teras Kasi is a hard game to learn but once you put the hours in is a fun and awesome game. I have many memories of this game and playing it with my friends.
Is that shirt a reference to revolver?? So sick!! Also dang almost forgot about demolition! I loved that game! So much fun! XD
Yoda Stories was awesome to mess around on! There was also Indiana Jones Desktop Adventures. It was pretty much Yoda Stories with Indy except it came first.
Yoda Stories...Ah how I loved that game.... Oh...and Star Wars Rebellion!
I used to play the demo for Star Wars: Demolition all the time. It was a blast!
the star wars RTS game based off the age of empires 2 engine was pretty awesome, forgot what it was called though. great video
Oh god, I had that racing-game back in the day. I truly regret it, even if it was only a pirated copy.
And speaking of strange/obscure Star Wars-games I happened to own, there's also this little "gem" called Star Wars Droidworks.
Great video!
Dude, you should try "Star Wars Droidworks"...super interesting game for kids, where you build your own droids and get given challenges you have to do with your design. Really funky but super cool
I actually knew about Demolition, Superbombad Racing, and Masters of Teras Kasi.... I continually rented them from my local video store.
As a Jabba the Hutt fan, I'd vote for Star Wars Math: Jabba's Game Galaxy. Definitely a bit of a weird one -- sort of an edutainment title.
Star Wars: The Clone Wars was a game during the Xbox/PS2/GCN era that I thought was quite odd, simply because of the shoe-horned in on-foot missions that were really awkward and funny because of the running animations. However, the vehicular combat was awesome, especially in multiplayer.
I remember playing Star Wars: Jedi Power Battle a lot on my old PS1. Not many people remember that game now unfortunately..
If it isn't already, Odd and Forgotten would be an awesome recurring theme for you to do. Barbie series next.
I actually kind of like the Star Wars game on Famicom, it's pretty fun. Aside from that I also liked Bounty Hunter and Jedi Academy though no one else seems to.
I know this is a really old comment, but who doesn't like Bounty Hunter?
Star Wars Droidworks for PC! Made 1998 a great year for me.
I used to play the crap outta Yoda Stories. I was never quite sure what was going on, but man did I play and play.
Hey guy,
Really love you!!!
But two question:
Do you also have a ps3/4
And do you also play some of the modern games like GTA V and that stuff?
Excellent theme for a video, Ive seen countless top 10-20 star wars games, but it was really cool for those odd games to get a mention this time, they all can't be Episode-1 Racer or Super Empire Strikes Back, but as long as they are star wars themed and a video game, they are worth a look.
Some games that I would of like to have seen mentioned are Star Wars Bounty Hunter the Jango Fett game, it wasn't perfect but some neat ideas in that game, specially the free roaming sections. SW Battlefront Elite Squadron on the NDS is a surprisingly good twin stick shooter style game. Star Wars for the SMS/NES is a game that is not very good, but worth a look.
Great Star Wars/The Beatles Revolver t-shirt! Mind sharing where you bought it please?
Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds was sorta a fun RTS game . from the creators of Age of Empires series
Holy shit Star Wars: Demolition was amazing when I was a kid
I found my copy of Masters of Teräs Käsi in a U-Haul truck that my dad rented. It was just in there on the floor without a case and it was pretty scratched up. Still played though. I didn't think it was that bad once you get the hang of it.
I seem to recall seeing a weird pit droid Episode I tie-in in stores back then. ..Star Wars: Pit Droids?
Whoa. Metal Jesus went full AVGN at 5:19
Starwars galactic battle grounds was amazing! I loved that game so much, should've put that one for sure!
One of the best outros!
Star Wars Empire At War seems to have been forgotten, though that might just be me, and I also would say Star Wars Battle for Naboo could fall into this as it seems to be wedged between both Rogue Squadron 1 and 2.
I like how in the Chess game Chewbacca gives a Stormtrooper a overhead press slam then a double foot stomp.
You missed Star Wars Rebel Assault, Rebel Assault II: The Hidden Empire, I loved those games as a kid, and Star Wars Rebellion had awesome artwork
Nice video. I too really enjoyed SW Demolition. I wouldve put SW Jedi Power battles on there, particularly the Dreamcast version. It wasn't the best game ever but my friends & I really liked it.
I freaking loved force commander
The second pronausioation of Teräs Käsi was right, its finnish and translate to Steel Hand.
Im making a text based game in command prompt right now, im wondering if I could possibly move up to making games like Yoda Stories, I want to make something similar since im not big on working on text only projects.
Haha, I was pretty much waiting for Yoda Stories to come up.
I think 2 kind of forgotten Star Wars games are first, Star Wars Republic Commando, an awesome fps which MJR did a great review of.
And second, Star Wars Clone Wars, which was actually made by the same guys that made Battlefront and you can see some influences from this game in Battlefront.
FYI according to Guinness book of records gamer edition 2014 there are 296 Star Wars titles across 44 platforms! Wow George really milked it! now it Disney's turn!
The actual, physical Monopoly Star Wars game was and still is a favorite of mine to play from time to time. It's actually what I think of the instant someone says Monopoly. I would also consider it one of the best looking Monopoly games ever made simply because of the craftsmanship involved. Most other title specific Monopoly games don't look nearly as nice.
You left out that PC game about the ecosystem on Naboo. That game was pretty unique.
I actually enjoyed Super Bombad Racing, lol. It was one of the only games where I could play as Yoda :)
The stand alone Star Wars Lightsaber Battle Game would fit this bill I think. Do you have that? I think it was released by Tiger. Had you flay your lightsaber arm around like mad before the Wii was around! Mostly forgotten, but pretty nifty still, especially seeing how the last motion controlled SW game worked out...
Star Wars Galactic Battlegrounds for the PC. Same premise as Age of Empires. So much fun.
