Update!! Got some good news and bad news. The bad news is I was wrong about X-Scape no longer being available for download , sorry about that. But the good news? X-Scape IS actually still available for download! On the 3DS eShop!
I was just about to inform you on that in the comments section.
Derek! Derek Derek Derek... You talk about Argonaut-developed games using the SuperFX chip, and about sequels to X... and don't mention VorteX?
I REALLY really really love your videos man. I just wish you lowered the volume of your into at 0:39. The sound is screeching and a different volume from the rest of your video. You make really fun and interesting videos though! Thanks!
I was about to say; any DSiWare downloads that released for the DSi Shop is also on the 3DS eshop; so you should be able to get X-Scape. The DSiWare version of Shantae Risky's Revenge (which was its first release) can also be downloaded this way; that's how I got it.
please punching weight do Console ports
I was there for Uncle Bobs Faceball party...and yes...it worked.
Digging up an old comment, but do you recall how the daisy chain was pulled off? Asking for research.
@@ThroughTheCracksProductions you use the p2 ports of the cables for the consoles and the p1 ports for daisy chaining if memory serves. I was poking at this a few weeks ago since someone asked me to verify.
Myth: CONFIRMED!!!
I thought that you could not use GBA cables for GB/GBC games? I remember I was unable to link two GBC games across two GBAs with my GBA cable, and had to go out and buy a GC link cable to do it.
One thing I know about the X game is that it supposedly takes place in the Metroid universe. The commander head you see in the tutorial is Adam, the same Adam in Metroid Other M, which at one point even references the transforming ship from Adams past.
When you're watching a UA-camr you recently started getting into, scroll down to see if one of the things he said has changed, and suddenly see one of your favorite UA-camrs having commented on it with no replies or likes @-@
@@beatricebunny3346 lmao he only has 100 subs quit acting like he’s famous. Hes just as obscure as me
@@HistoryandReviews ah yes 931k and 100 soo near idk maybe he just accelerated in growth this year or you mistook 100k for 100
@@HistoryandReviews wait this was made 2 weeks ago
@@HistoryandReviews can't tell if troll or just woefully unaware...
DSI ware is an example of why Roms are important.
WiiWare too. We are still missing the Korean version of Yoshi's Cookie, and we may never find it. At least DSiWare is available on the 3DS eShop.
@The SNES Man you’re worried about the embracing of digital games yet Roms are how we keep records of all these games. Make up your fucking mind.
@@Rountree1985 digital-only purchasable games, you nink. Backing up games as Roms and being aware that games are hidden away on some online store and only on that online store in time is its own challenge. Much rather be able to keep a movie on a DVD than trust that Netflix will always have it up to watch, for example.
@@snbeast9545 who cares about Korea as long as we have the USA version
@@HistoryandReviews it matters to Koreans.
What the hell was on that hard drive that he fled the country for it!? I can't imagine it was JUST T-Tex.
It was also the declaration of independence.
pirated Development environments, a shit ton of cracks, and other things that would cause the Coppyright offices to ape ship.
Pause to read the newspaper, the dude seemingly had a relationship with a minor and fled the country with possible evidences...
Toy Story 2
Someone needs to mod Doom to be Faceball 2000
I'm surprised it hasn't been done
Or give Faceball 2000 a Doom skin mod
Why not Wolfenstein 3D? :) That'd be easier. But yeah… i see why. That game has no multiplayer mode.
Sadly, the engine for that game wouldn't be right, instead, we should repurpose one of the racing games engines
@@JamesTDG nah, repurpose X maybe? The open world and the kids get found the day after
How Derek talked all about Faceball 2000 without ever mentioning the single music track in the game is mindblowing. That song by David Whittaker absolutely amazing, and easily one of the best songs ever made for the OG Game Boy. Still hoping to one day see footage of an actual 16-player game of Faceball being done, because that'll have to be a Guinness World Record, or something.
"War has never been so much fun" was meant to be satirical. The lyrics continue
"go to your broher.
kill him with your gun.
leave him dying in his uniform
dying in the sun
so much fun"
*brasses* WAR!!! *brasses* WAR!! Never been so much fun. WAR!!! Never been so much fuuun. LOL only heard about this game through my Dad's SNES cartridge back then. Having it for the Atari Jaguar ^_^
Even if the show has ended, Derek is Still a Happy Video Game Nerd
Good point.
What show ended?
@@scottthewaterwarrior This channel initially was called Happy Video Game Nerd until a few years ago.
@@AlucardsQuest Oh, well I just didn't realize his name was Derrick, lol! There was another Derrick who worked for Classic Game Room, but thst ended, so I thought you were talking about that.
"Gameboy does what Super Nintendon't." Oh, how true.
Especially the Super Gameboy, also known as "We crammed a Gameboy inside a SNES cartridge!"
DSiWare game can still be bought on 3DS. Just can’t get it on a DSi natively.
Not all of them, some DSiWare like the DSi version of Oregon Trail were simply cancelled and wiped from existence unless you have them installed on your system...I assume it's the same with this one?
Nope, nevermind...it's still available, hasn't been delisted yet.
@@JohnnyProctor9 if you have a homebrewed 3DS, you can get any of them installed ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
@@chickensouplover516 - Unfortunately I haven't been able to figure that one out yet...
Thank you! Glad to know that!
Hell-of-an-episode! You and minimme's deep dives into the obscure and forgotten have really inspired the videos I make. Thank you so much for your super entertaining research!
I inherited four copies of Faceball 2000 when I purchased a friend's game lot a few years ago, and I fell in love with the game. It's so silly and the music is some of the catchiest I've run into on the system so far. Thanks for highlighting such a great game!
Tyrannosaurs Tex is just cowboy Turok. Yeehaw
Boah, you done yee'ed yo last haw.
🤠
BEWAREOBLIVIONISATHAND
I came here for the 3D Gameboy games, but I stayed for the Kiryu & Nugget disco shirt.
Ohhhhhhhhh...THAT'S what that X is from Brawl's OST? Wow, that's insane. I'd so play that.
UltimaKeyMaster it’s also a spirit in Smash ultimate!
@@2yoyoyo1Unplugged That might be a little confusing when (Mega Man) X's Spirit is just called X like he usually is.
Alright. That does it. I am now dedicating my life to collecting 16 copies of Faceball 2000 and 16 Gameboys, and 15 link cables, and I am going to play a 16-player game... by myself as I have no friends.
But wow, WHY DOES THAT FEATURE EVEN EXIST!?
Someday someone should put on a retro convention, where people are incentivised to come round with a copy of Faceball 2000, a Gameboy, and a link cable, to try and make a 16-player game happen, as I’m sure there are at least 16 Gameboy collectors in the world with all the required equipment.
In the video he says that people tried but failed already in 2018?
@@horusreloaded6387 They’ve done events where they’ve suggested it but never one with a big incentive, like a prize for everyone who brings the equipment.
I remember seeing Tyrannosaurus Tex on GamePro Magazine at that time and always wanting to play it.
I'm so glad this channel exists. Some of the most informative and interesting comment on games you'd typically brush off aside.
I love this channel so much! This video right here is some of my favorite content, along with all the other Punching Weight videos and everything else on the channel, really. Always a good time to watch :)
faceball 2000 is the first battle royale
I got a spirit from "X" this morning in Smash ultimate.
The "Tunnel Scene" music has had a remix in the Smash series since Super Smash Bros. Brawl, as well.
Ironic that it would lead to the development of Star Fox, which would get it’s own Game Boy ripoff called Star X.
Honestly I’ve had X for so long. (4 years or more maybe) I love it! Unfortunately I don’t know what goes on in it but it’s a fun game to explore around on the Gameboy. I got it a long time ago because I’m a hardcore Star Fox fan. When I found out this was the game the engine was first used, I needed this game. When I found it on eBay, it was a instant buy. I don’t regret it.
The whole video is great but the Blitzwing reference is the cherry on top
Floating EMOJI??? Cmon Derek, you're too old for that, that's a damn smiley face
For those of us old enough it's the acid house symbol.
Have a nice day
Back in my day we called them emoticons.
Also they are not smiley faces, they are pacman and the ghosts, sickest of the sick punk bands
A nice Punching Weight localisation:
When the DS rpg Inazuma Eleven by Level-5 (Best known for the Professor Layton and Yo-Kai Watch series) got localised for Europe, the sequel was already out in Japan. The localisers didn't just translate the game, but they also added all information on new characters and moves from the sequel to the game's data, just so that when the sequel eventually released in Europe it would be completely backwards compatible.
Inazuma Eleven 2 also had some very interesting features like sharing your team to battle against for other players while passing someone while your DS is in sleep mode...
This might just sound like Street Pass, but the thing is... It was a DS game released years before the 3DS and it already had it built in to the game cart.
At least someone was happy about it, the game was very popular at my primary school so everyone was hyped when Inazuma Eleven 2 released, we all bought it and played together at school but the weird kid in the corner of the classroom couldn't afford the game but we still tried to connect with his copy of Inazuma Eleven 1, and we were very surprised to see that we still were able to play together without any restrictions
Now that's pretty awesome. I wish the students in my school did something like that.
@@emmastarr5242
Haha, I guess I've always been lucky with choosing schools, they are always filled with nerds, but I guess it's easy when you're 9 and Nintendo is still the greatest thing on earth for most of your classmates
Now I'm 17 and I'm still playing Mario Kart DS with people during breaks (sometimes we even have to disappoint someone because we already hit the 8 player maximum)
Just try taking out your DS at school (preferably together with a friend) people will get interested and when you invite them you will be surprised to see how many people are willing to dust of their old DS's
@@TheMadCroctor god, the fact you youngins consider the DS an "old" console is making me feel really old. It still feels like the DS only just came out, and it's the classic GB and GBC that are the old ones. Looking up the age of the Wii also makes me feel like an old man. Being in your 30s is like a never-ending existential crisis
@@duffman18
I personally don't consider the DS old, but I'm a collector and I know what's actually old (I just bought some kind of Pong console from the 1970's)
But it's a fact that the DS is already over 12 years old which was long enough for 2 generations of portable consoles to release and more than long enough for most of my peers to lose interest in their DS's and to let them collect a pretty thick layer of dust.
@@TheMadCroctor oh I know it's technically "old" now. But that's not the point. As you age, the years start to rush by without you even noticing. It really does still feel like the DS just came out. Before you know it you're old, and bear death, and your parents are dead, your friends start to die, it's awful. You've got to seize the time you have, because it's gone in a flash before you've even realised it
That Yakuza shirt tho 😍
Probably been said before but you can still buy X-Scape on the 3ds eShop I think?
Some DSiWare like the DSi version of Oregon Trail were simply cancelled and wiped from existence unless you have them installed on your system...I assume it's the same with this one?
I just checked, It's on 3ds for $7.99
@@Gameplayer1500X - I just dug up and recharged my 3DS and was about to check it out...it's hard to believe that he'd overlook something as simple as that, so I thought that maybe it had been delisted like I heard that a bunch of other ones have been. Thanks for checking!
yes you can! if i had to be wrong about something, I'm glad it's about this!
neato
Always happy to watch any content from you :D
7:49: 'Where did you learn to fly?' 😂
oh, hey! it kinda warms my heart whenever I see the NintendoWorldReport forums elsewhere. there was a point I was an avid poster in their Podcast discussion forum.
Some of these were on minimme's vids, but I think there are some unique ones, especially the details about Tex! Good vid!
minimme does great work!
I love this channel. you are so enthusiastic and full of passion. If you are ever in Orlando, we can go retro shopping!
Got more excited then I should have at seeing Animated Blitzwing
Your videos has made me love games again..... i got so tired of the DLC , 2K20 EDITION , Microtransactions.... i forgot games could be simple fun! i love your channel, have been binging a lot of videos , :D I really want to see what you upload next!
ps: your happy attitude to all this games makes me glee! very refreshing in this drama infested youtube x.x
I needed this episode so much
You and minime always there for my daily dosis of graphically impressive games of the older years
That's the kind of videos I really enjoy :) Ok, I already knew about all of these games, but it's always pleasant to see someone presenting them. Oh and nice use of the Mercenary Force music; I think it's a really good game ! ;)
PS: Tiertex also made Championship Motocross 2001 feat. Ricky Carmichael on GBC using the same FMV technology.
New sub! Love seeing early stages of 3d gaming and because of your video, even if it isn't that great. Lol. Still interesting to check out even if it's just for the experience of seeing the progress. I hope you're doing well 😀
I have to say, this video did not disappoint. I didn't expect to see Argonaut studios involved and a proto-Star Fox on the Gameboy of all things. And I certainly didn't expect to see a tale about a wanted fugitive fleeing the country after absconding with a game's source code.
How about an "I Can't Believe It's Atari 2600 3D!" Episode?
20 years later there's gonna be episode about The Witcher 3 on the Switch.
And DooM 2016
And Wolfenstein Young Blood
so glad I found that MartialHorror video on HVGN, or I may have never seen one of the greatest content creators on UA-cam. still finding great games to talk about to this day
Glad to see you rockin the Yakuza t-shirt Derek
I see you with that Animated Blitzwing. 👌
"ive never been this excited for elevation change in a game"
remember when you reviewed simpsons hit and run for gba
Great ep!
Nice to see you guys finally reviewing X. I remember years ago, you and Ben were talking about reviewing it on your old Totally Random Show podcast, but it was too expensive to find a copy. :3
Legend has it, whoever is able to gather all 15 necessary people to play 16-player deathmatch on Faceball will open the portal to the magical world of Ballsyland, where all encounters get facial.
A nice day will be had by all.
But are any of these games ACTUALLY 3D or is it just Raycasting like how Doom and Wolfenstein did 3D?
Doom doesnt use raycasting, its something about static BSP trees.
Doom was actual 3d they just rendered it weird
Thanks for videos like this! I’ve found lots of neat games like this that I wouldn’t have known about otherwise. I’ve managed to get a copy of both X and racedrivin’ off EBay. They’re pretty good.
This was a great episode. I'd love to try 16 person Faceball
I made a topic in some forums recently asking for gameboy recommendations and someone said X. At first I thought he meant MMX, but no, it was a shooter. I could not find very much info at all on it, let alone the rom, so its a crazy coincidence it came up in your video. Hopefully more stuff on it will start sprouting up now
Punching Weight is totally my favorite youtube series right now
I find this stuff so interesting... Great video!
Love these videos.
Ive been waiting for this for years!
The force feedback steering wheel on the Hard Drivin' arcade cabinet blew me away when I was a kid... the game itself, though, is pretty butt
Been as gentle as he can be (insert montage of him just attacking the package with various power tools).
Holy shit! I bought x-scape in middle school and dumped probably 150 hours into it. I had no idea that its roots went so far back! Amazing video!
It just shows how much you could do with the good old Zilog 80 CPU. God bless this little piece of silicone. As a kid in the 90s, i had no idea 3D games existed on the game boy. For some reason these games weren't talked about and nobody i knew, who had a game boy as well, had any of these titles. Almost as if they weren't released in europe.
I rented Faceball 2000 from my local library as a kid. Kid me was blown away! Then I played it on an emulator a couple of decades later. I...I honestly thought I just had a bad rom or something. Nope. That was the framerate kid me was able to overlook. I lost my innocence the day I lost that ability, I think.
Great vid, absolutely LOVE this series.
I really need to get X one day, such a good oddity for the Gameboy for how amazing it runs
Love you guys! You guys are awesome!! I can't remember if you have or have not, but if not, will you be talking about the Sega Smash Pack series on any of your shows, or Sonic Genesis for GBA and how badly it was screwed up despite all the changes it brought to the table?
6:46 corneria theme started -playing- thundering in my head.
6:48
I knew you were a man of good taste, good ol Transformers Animated Blitzwing.
Also X should have been about Blitzwing.
Bill Elliott's NASCAR Fast Tracks actually has a surprising amount of depth to it. Tunning your car for different tracks, damage/tire wear effecting handling, even drafting making you go faster _and_ saving fuel. It was made by the same team who made Test Drive 1&2 and the first 5 Need for Speed games. That screen tearing though... It is a shame we never got a proper NASCAR game on the GBA, would have been so much more capable!
I'm not sure why I thought this was a video about a 3D Gameboy Printer accessory and I was so confused.
estoy suscripto hace como mucho tiempo y recien hace una semana me avive que sos HVGN ROFLMAO! love your videos! saludos desde argentina!
i don't speak spanish very well but thanks for watching! muchas gracias!
Faceball 2000 on SNES was my favorite quirky game as kid, rented from Tommy Ks ton of times before my mom said we need to buy it (probably spent more than its worth in rental fees haha) Luckily I found out about Funcoland then and got a used copy (how did we survive as gamers without eBay and online retailers?). BTW X-Scape is awesome too, glad to see you giving it some love. I have the original Japanese X in box, not too expensive yet and I recommend for any Gameboy fan!
I'm trying to find the poster/print of Earthbound you have behind you. Could you (or anyone else) help me find it?
The next time you visit in a convention you should attempt a 16 player faceball match. I'm sure you got enough patron backers that will have the required retro tech.
Did you ever find out how to access multiplayer in Tyrannosaurus Tex? I keep unlocking stuff for the multiplayer with no clue on how to actually access it.
Slitherine software that name rings a bell I think they were involved with the tv series Deadliest warrior
What song is playing in the background of the toy story racer part? I recognize it but cant figure it out. I thought it mustve been toystory but I cant find it there
cool video! thanks!
The Game Boy is such a bottomless pit of insane "this shouldn't exist" games, probably because it was so popular for so long. It's why it's one of my favorite game platforms.
I appreciate what you're trying to say, that 3D as we know it today has had a slow evolution, but 3D games have existed in some form almost as long as video games.
Elite, an open world space trading sim, came out in 1984. (It was ported to the NES, incidentally.) SubLogic started making flight simulators in 1979. Battlezone was a tank game, a big arcade hit in 1980.
love this stuff
Wow Faceball 2000 reminds me of when I put Doom on my calculator. Although I am tempted to get a copy and always carry it a gameboy and a link cable with me at all times in case i bump in to 15 others who have had the same idea!!
Hellllllll yeah. Dropped everything to watch
Where can I buy that shirt? Great vid as always, btw. Your content is always unique and right up my alley.
I like these types of videos
Hell yeah, new punching weight video
Dude i was playing monkeyball jr on the GBA its got what seems like 3d visuals and crazy potential energy based physics!
I think that all of the 8 bit and 16 bit Toy Story games push the limits of whatever hardware they're on. It's fitting because of how the movie was groundbreaking in it's time.
Cannon Fodder GBC intro is my personal nightmare fuel
There's something neat on how you say "you'd expect it to come with" at 4:56
finna sounded like he rolled the "come with" in that sentence.
That's because he said "come at," not "come with." Lol. "...expect it to come at the cost of actual gameplay,"
I.e. You'd expect the gameplay to suck since the 3-D graphics are so impressive.
@@nthgth You right. I meant the way he pronounces it so fast.
So for the next one in this series, how about talking about Spider-Man 1 & 2 on GBA. They got full on Open-world sections in that game, it's cool.
YESSS a new punching weight episode makes everything better
Absolutely in love with the Yakuza shirt
Great video as usual! Would you consider Cosmo Tank on game boy having some 3d parts? I had that game as a kid no one ever talks about it!!
The original Toy Story was a technical revolution by being the first computer animated movie and Toy Story racer was a technical revolution on the gameboy color by having prerendered 3d computer graphics ... i see where this is going
you really should talk about max payne on gba, it has shitton voice acting and is surprisingly accurate port of the original PC version too
Omg I love the kiryu tshirt
I love punching weight derek, but i miss your reviews and retrospectives! The dino crisis, parasite eve and sweet home videos are my favourites!
9:49 Oh my God, I remember this game from when I was a little kid! It was the only GBC game I played besides my sister's _Alice in Wonderland_ game.
10:46 Wow... even back then, Bo Peep was kickass. :)
Digging that Yakuza shirt dude!
Yes! Transformers Animated Blitzwing for the winning cameo
All these 3D games reminds me of another 3D game on the SNES ALSO by Argonaut Games, Vortex. Gods you couldn't pull the controller from my hand when I turned it on!
Hold up, I purchased X-Scape on the eShop a year or 2 ago (maybe more), even though it's a DSi Ware title... Have they recently been deleting DSi Ware games?
