    SMALL CORRECTION: Meant to say "Sea Bass Fishing" instead of "Sega Bass Fishing" which ran on the Model 3, and not the Titan. Apologies for the mixup.

      think alongside being a milestone title,as fun as 2 & 3 are do remember hearing some fans were less interested as it went on so it likely cut the new characters outside ending cameos going back to the one that sold a bit more.

      Still a great game show recap of how a game would of performed better on other hardware with great content within it like unlockable artwork and commercial ads from the FF games would of been great on the ps1.Keep up the great work matt.

    My brother and I bought the Saturn version from Game Cave at a discount for I think $19.99 back in the day. I almost opened it, but my brother informed me the game requires a ram expansion cart, which we did not have. That's why we still to this day own a sealed copy of this game.

And lastly, at 15:05 the cover is Weekly Shonen Jump, not Famitsu, but yeah, both Jump and Famitsu sorta has similar styles to their front covers. Otherwise though, Yu-Gi-Oh! (indirectly) mentioned/shown!

    As far as recommendations go, I think an episode about "Oddworld: the Hand of Odd" would be amazing, since I believe the backstage stories would be great.
    Plus, I have a deep fondness for Oddworld Inhabitants and their work, and it's nice to have stories about somewhat indie precursors from the 90s.

    I can confirm that there was a cabinet of FF Revenge at Fun n Games in Wayne, NJ, and it was displayed in a featured location at the Arcade. I played it a bit, and it was ok. It wasn't bad. Fun, but with everything else out at the time, it was just overshadowed.

  • @NickPiers
    @NickPiers Před 6 měsíci +2

    I have a request or suggestion for a future What Happened: Sierra On-Line.
    (Sorry, I got ranty on this one, as I grew up on Sierra games.)
    Sierra used to be one of the biggest PC game publishers. Their market share almost rivaled Microsoft. They were pioneers in game development, pushing for new ways for games to be made (like fully voiced games, CD-Rom, etc). Heck, they were responsible for publishing Half-Life, paving the way for Valve to become the PC market juggernaut it is today.
    They were filled with controversy, like hiring very controversial figure Daryl Gates for Police Quest 4 or being the makers of the hilarious but controversial Leisure Suit Larry games. From some sources, including Ken Williams himself in his book about Sierra, they very much had "crunch culture" built into their workspace.
    But then they were screwed over by CUC International and not only quickly lost many employees, but game development went south and they eventually became a shell of their former selves. And a lot of it isn't to blame on them, but CUC because CUC was part of one of the largest accounting fraud cases in history.

    @philmason9653 Před 6 měsíci +1

    It would have been impossible to release the Saturn game in North America in 2000, there was no retail market to sell it into. Sega of America had cut the price of the Saturn so steeply by 1997 that it was losing the company money for every console sold. They accrued so much debt they literally couldn't afford to keep it on shelves, which is why they pulled the plug in North America after the '97 holiday season. Even in '98, most retailers had reduced their Saturn sections to a small corner at the back of the store and were ordering in small numbers, which is why 1998 releases like Panzer Dragoon Saga, Burning Rangers and Magic Knight Rayearth are so rare. By the time you get to two years later in 2000 there is no way anyone in Capcom sales was convincing retail chain buyers to dedicate shelf space to bad Saturn games. And Sega was full steam ahead on making the Dreamcast happen, I'm sure they had no interest in reminding anyone of the Saturn at that point.

    I remember seeing and playing this game (once) way back in the arcade. Probably 99 or early 2000's. For some reason I had a hard time with this game and find it ridiculous with its supers. The idea of a Final Fight fighting game was a good one but was executed badly. Also seeing Plasma Sword and Tech Romancer gave me some nostalgia feels since they were my favorite games in the arcade I used to play.

    Hey, Matt, have you ever considered doing a Wha Happun on the Dark Alliance series? Or more accurately, the Forgotten Realms: Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance I and II series from around 2000? It's got elements of a good story- executive meddling, using engines without permission, cut content, and a game that turned out fun despite all that. I'm also curious if you can answer why "nu Dark Alliance" uses the same title despite being only tangentially related.

    @MattMcMuscles 12:39 I can confirm that I played this game in New Orleans, ( my hometown ) in an arcade. I remember also how bad it was too.

      The old arcade on Manhattan back in the 90s? in front of the mall that they ended up tearing down?

      Yeah, that's what I've been wondering since now, did Matt get his copy back from AVGN? Its been a while since he gave it to him, but never referenced after that episode if he got it back or not. (Considering how expensive it is lately on the secondary market, lol.)

    I remember trying to order this game in the US and the place I ordered from sold their copy in the store the day before they updated their online store's Final Fight Revenge page to "backordered" status.

    I saw this cabinet in wantagh ny in the late 90s. In an old pool hall next to a samurai showdown 64 cab.

    I've never played the game. Whenever I'm reminded of its existence, I am always extremely puzzled at the negative critics because, in motion, it looks suspiciously close to the fantastic Rival School on the Playstation. I wonder of it's a ported game engine or something of that ilk. But even then, passing visual similarity means nothing if the gameplay is terrible.

    So that was the story of that particular Final Fight game.
    I always remembered that game from that AVGN episode that you made a cross-over (which at the same time was the reason that I discovered your channel).
    Kind sad that the game is still stuck on the Saturn and never got a port on other consoles, either alone or in the typical bundle/compilation or a Collection type's games because it looks interesting to play it, even if is just for a couple hours or minutes. 😂

    OK, so I believe you're conversational with Derek, but also James the original online videogame video creator that's still active? That's wild.

    I still dream of a day when we get a new Final that is actually fun and good, along with new Darkstalkers, Rival Schools, and Dino Crisis games.

    As someone who grew up there it is always funny when I hear someone call it Sunnydale and not Sunnyvale. I blame Buffy for that one.

    for the flaws it has(would put it above the movie game/virtua fighter just kinda being there as a tbh bare outside vs. or other media fighting game series outside rereleasing 5 unless if it gets included in that sega revival.) do love how quirky it is(mike haggar piledriving you through earth being my favorite/for final fight would be happy with him,poison especially,maki,guy and cody returning playable in 6.) .
    & being the introduction of poison's thick diva nature(especially her being the reason for cody being arrested framing him for her crimes/having a crush on him with them mutually respecting each other by street fighter forming that awesome tag team with hugo.:3).

    I love late 90s/early 00's reviewers, they were absolutely savage , not in any modern political whiny way, no these guys would just deliver the most brutal lines to describe and burn the games they didn't like, no mercy

    One wonders why they didn't borrow the Saturn VF2 engine from Sega to make this game if Sega insisted that the game be in 3D. Probably would have turned out better.
    I always kick myself for not getting the game back in the day despite being a Saturn gamer.
    Great vid as always Matt!

    Hello! I would love if you could do some research on the movie “New York Ninja”. It’s definitely one of those bizarre stories for the “What Happened” series

    I still have my Saturn copy. I think I've played it 5 times in the 25 years or so. It's so bad, yet worth quite a bit.

    I'm a simple person, if your game has Poison in it that's a 10/10 game for me.
