Nintendo VHS Tapes were a wild time

In the 90s Nintendo released these VHS tapes, usually for Nintendo Power Magazine subscribers, to promote upcoming games and consoles (well pretty much just the N64). These videos are full of amazingly cheesy acting and hammy plots, and I just can't get enough of it. In this video I'll take you on a magical tour of this golden age of strange marketing decisions.

Fire Emblem Three Houses Live Action (Cast by an AI)
Love the video but i honestly have to disagree at around 38:00. Other than Violen none of the other X hunters have undodgeable attacks.
Fair enough!
58:43 dude thank you for this explanation. i really hate how this concept, that certainly had great potential, was just poorly given at the very end of the game, thus not letting us the time to process the informations or understand its consequences deeply. that would've been awesome if, kind of like colette having to sacrifice herself to regenerate the world, estelle also came up earlier with this kind of dilema instead of just "i use too much aer and happen to cross path with a guy that wanted to use it for evil so now better kms".
Seeing the number 204863 gave me war flashbacks
33:57 THANK YOU FOR POINTING THAT OUT !!!!
30:55 I KNOW !! I KNOW !!! I KNOW THAT WAY TOO WELL !!! another thing that i absolutely HATED about this game is how it was presented to me as something deep and intriguing. i love it when you feel... you know... something deep inside of you when you get to know more about the story but ... this game... it lacked this part sooo much ! i was waiting for the shivers and NOTHING for a very long time. it was just plain and boring. In symphonia you'd always get a roller coaster of emotions to the point that i got my expectations too high for that game
man i really appreciated the gameplay but gosh the game itself was a paaaaaaaiiiiin so yeah i feel good hearing someone criticize the flaws of that game that i was sold to as the "perfect game" like man my expectations were too high because of how overrated it is and then it was the biggest dissapointment EVER. i still enjoyed some dinamics between certain characters but otherwise i felt like many character were straight up BORING (talking to you judith and raven)
the game took soo long to start and when you fight alexei i thought it was like... the middle on the game only ! turns out we were near the end ! pff...
ngl man, I find this review more like a recap of a terrible story ( I got so bored that I skipped to near the end of the video) I get the feeling that you actually like the story, that makes me question severely your taste, not because I disliked it but because it is bad and thats a fact you have a good voice and some good jokes, so good work there
Loved this game. In Valkyria Chronicles, you can recruit an eye patched man named Vyse, and a female named Aika? They are from a distant land and seek adventure, a nod to Skies of Arcadia.
He's in the Valkyria anime too!
The only thing i missed what something considered "the hard path" at the time. From what I rememebr it had something to do with "missing" the boat to a certain era and you're forced to fight a boss fight first at some tower
I learned of this game about a month ago, and have purchased it for PS1 on ebay. I'm going to play solely to k*ll with impunity! It's going to be amazing 😂😂
Tos video in 2024 ❤
this was a great retrospective and the remake sold super good! hope you enjoyed it, i d' say it's an amazing upgrade
Thank you!
😂😂😂
There's another small detail missing from the gamecube version that was in the original dreamcast version. When you acquire the little jack, the engine room is noisy until you steal Belleza's engine from her airship. Then, the engine room is quiet. In the gamecube version, there never is any noise in the little jack's engine room.
I wouldn't have noticed this in a million years, thanks for the obscure trivia, I love it
Played this on the ps1, one of my favorite games of all time! Currently playing the new harry potter game on XB1!
Loved the video, subscribed to ya 😀
Glad to have you aboard
53:40 I doubt they wanted to make Noishe playable; but you can ride Noishe on the world map, and the easiest way to do that is to add his model to the overworld character class. This is likely the leftovers of some code that did that, and they just didn't remove it when they changed the way Noishe worked later in development.
That makes sense
criminally underappreciated game
The best rpg
Great video as always!! Curious to hear how would you rank the X games My ranking from best to worst is: X4 X1 x2 X5 X3 X6 X8 500 meters of trash X7
Mine is close but a little different: 1, 4, 5, 3, 2, 8, 6, 7
Well that's odd. I always get the chockie when the conversation is over. Also Mos Espa. Ah the fun killing spree moments. Need to redo it someday.
Alear: Marth, No! Emblem Marth: Sorry kid, i got a new master now.
Top tier reference
Phantom Menace ps1 = garbage PC= Masterpiece
Lol
Avocados?
the dek wapon who destroy barrier is stteal from xillia with the lance of kresinic and the schusim
I hate how right you are but gosh darn it, do I love this game!
Iirc presea's formal attire has the same thing as Zelos', it's a bunny plush for her
I've heard that too, but haven't been able to find any good footage of it 🤷
You're telling me I've been playing some lost media of FE IF this whole time??? No wonder people never talked about it
Hold onto it if you have it!
Rampaging on tattoine was my favorite part 😂😂
The best part
If thats how the army are organized like that, no wonder a team of like 6 pirate crews can overthrow the entire army lol
And by a bunch of teens too, they really gotta get it together
15:37 Well it's call back to Wolf Sigma in Mega Man X sooo...
That makes sense but I still feel like even wolf Sigma had more character
"The soundtrack is one of the best in my opinion, here are my favorites" Proceeds to list Duff McWhalen's track, which is literally Bubble Crab's theme...
Is it?
@@WesDoesGames Yes.
Are you kidding?? I loved this game!! 😮😮❤
12:48 It's not real time, it goes down per stage visit. Lots of misinformation here...
11:39 Wait WHAT Armor?
Lol
Video could have used more time to cook honestly
The names were fire in x 5
I totaly disagree with your opinion on X2!!! X1 was waaaay to easy. It's that way around 😂 And X3 was THE GREATEST! The peak! X4 was still preaty need, and after that there only came trash So X2 and X3 was the best!
I hate we're gonna have to wait several more videos it was before he tackles mission commander! Which arguably proves that yes we can have us a X game without the same villain over and over and over again I wonder if that's why 8 actually changed the villain?
I mean 8 almost did but still had Sigma in there unnecessarily. I'm playing Command Mission now and enjoying it so far
@@WesDoesGames Have you already recruited cinnamon or not this will tell me how much of a 0h you're having fun even after the incident with a particular boss? Because I love the game but it does have one of its harsh difficulty spikes ie Oh All the enemies in this one level will are extremely easy to take on well I'm in my 20s then boss shows up you should be level 30 then the next stage oh everything's fine at level 30 as a matter of fact I feel a little over leveled boss yeah I still feel over leveled then you face two bosses in a row ok now I feel under leveled again.
@@seanfulldark I'm finding basic enemies a challenge so far lol. I'm just in Chapter 2
@@WesDoesGames Oh good you're in the chapter where the shop just opened up do not ignore it. All I recommend is start focusing on buying your antiviruses right now and don't use them until you see a particular boss in chapter 4. Also while spider does seem like a cool character due to how the action trigger works you don't always need to invest in the latest weapon for spider so don't feel bad if you skip weapon levels. The damage is always wildly inconsistent with the character so use spider when you believe you're needing sealth tanking and there's a better character that comes up later that works better for the job in investment skills but spider comes in handy through the arcs before you get her. This is only I'm doing non- spoils helpful tips. Ohh and I recommend you focus on trying to get three of a kind and not royal flush despite that looking like it does a lot more damage it's not as consistent as a 3 akine if you get 4 of a kind good luck that's actually more of a shocking number than you might think somehow I wonder if Capcom actually did go through the trouble of Encoding an entire deck?
Changing the names for the Bosses really works for the music theme Inafune wanted for the Rockman series, whether by design or not.
Full circle, lol
Michael Monroe’s nickname was “high in the sky” which was a huge reach to rename Pegasus.
That is a reach but that makes the most sense. Thanks for clarifying that!
Whats crazy is, X5 isn't really that bad, most of the stages are pretty decent, the weapons are okay (X1 is really the only game where almost every weapon was very useful and powerful) It has a strong foundation, its just all the mechanics that are messed up, from simple annoyances Like Alia constantly interrupting the flow, to more glaring issues like unlocking parts being so slow and the RNG screwing you out of a Zero play through. Hell even the story is fine, it's just needed better cutscenes, this game comeout in the 2000s and yet NES games like Ninja Gaiden were more vibrant in their story telling.
Yeah X5 could have been alot better if they just put some more time into it
I loved the 3DS MGS3 (my first mgs game and one I did complete) one of the best versions of the game that actually lets you crouch walk.
