- This is the weirdest game I've ever played. I'm not even sure how it got made. How has no one talked about this game before? I think it's my duty to share this game with the world. It's crazy stuff.

is it just me or did the animation look really good this episode?
I feel like the colors have been adjusted too
totally man
It did
Oh my god you're right
Seriously, the animation is probably the best it’s ever been this episode. That phone call part was just real nice to look at.
Thanks. I’ve been focusing on trying to improve with my animation and I think I’m getting to the point I’m really happy with it
Omg it's cossblips
The animation subtlety gets better and smoother every time
He’s right; I never heard of it.
Take my like..
Me neither
Oh no, i remember hearing bad things about you
I’ve heard of it but it was in the context of a streamer playing obscure terrible GBA games that viewers sent him. Outside of that, nothing.
What does it sound like?
I remember my friend and I finding this a little over a year back. Best two hours ever. It actually felt like the game was intentionally awful, and that's why we love it.
Lol especially the sewer music
The thumbnail art for this video is better than the entire game
This has got to be one of the strangest games I've never seen.
6 words Trio the Punch never forget me
Okay okay Goomba, I finally watched it
I feel like the story behind the developers of the game is more interesting than the game itself. Infact, the reason the game centres around yetis is because the devs are part of the influential parody religion known as the Church of the SubGenius. Followers of the church believe humans are descended from sexy yeits. If you go down the SubGenius rabbit hole, it will lead you to some weird, arty & funny stuff. Paul Reubens, Mark Mothersbaugh, Robert Crumb, David Byrne, Nancy A. Collins, Mojo Nixon, & Half-life voice actor Harry S. Robins are just some of the known members of the church.
Interesting
MOJO GOD DAMN NIXON?!
Man, who needs the history channel to learn about aliens when Goomba keeps getting abducted.
Oh boy Goomba’s gonna talk about a cult’s classic!
Not a cult classic, but a classic made by a satirical cult!
I played this as a kid, I never got past the first segment and just played it like a 9-year old would play GTA.
Remember, kids: “Urban Yeti beats two-person push-ups a hundred times out of a hundred.”
I had no idea this existed and I feel like I'm worse off knowing it does.
Back to the underrated games that nobody else would talk about.
Indeed. The CZcams algorithm will probably bury it though because of that. But eh, was a good video so I'm happy with it
@@TheLonelyGoomba CZcams is always cursed to show people who just scam kids thanks to some popular Roblox horror game and not give props to the actual deserving people. I also had a suggestion for a video about Toy Story 3 on the DS. I actually had the game and I will always remember that basically HALF the cast was missing and the ones that are missing are only in the cutscenes for whatever reason. I don't know where the game is but I'm not really that sad about it because watching a longplay probably proves it's a one and done game.
@@TheLonelyGoomba I'm gonna be honest, this is probably one of my favorite videos from you. Just the sheer insanity of the game makes the whole video hilarious to watch.
Since Goomba has a TV Tuner for the GBA i wouldn't mind seeing an episode where Goomba looks at Game Commercials.
i don't think i've ever laughed so much - this one was so good, thank you for sharing this experience with us.
The running joke of no one watching the urban yeti video made me watch it. Well played goomba
This game having those cutscene models looking like old 3D "naughty" stuff.
I cannot believe an "As seen on TV" officially licensed GBA game is a thing.
A rabbit hole is an understatement for this game
After the latest videos where they're more like actual reviews of retro but known games, Goomba going through a game no one's heard of while having 0 clue what's happening himself feels like classic LG, I love it
If the yeti is gonna work in the soup kitchen, he better be wearing a 6 foot hair net
Love the spritework on this one!
also it feels like the animation has taken a huge step up, wow!
Oh this one is going to be solid gold, I can already tell! I love when Goomba looks at the stranger or lesser known games :)
The argument at the urban yeti offices deciding which game to clone must have been legendary.
i actually have heard of this game, another youtuber made a video talking about the developers history, their ties to the joke religion "church of the subgenius" and all their other games, but left this one out for another video …a video he hasn't made yet, so even though i've heard of it, i've never played it and know nothing about it
edit: just realised i kinda casually dropped that some cultists made this, but yeah, they did. i recommend watching that aforementioned video, it's called "the subgenius cult's lost games" by rebeltaxi for the full story, and a bit of background on the "cult" itself.
I'm very excited about this one!! I appreciate all of the work you put into them!
This was Cave Barn studios's last game. They sure went out on ... Something.
This review is a higher quality than the actual game. Great stuff
When I was a kid, I found a GBA cartridge on the ground near a sidewalk. The cart had the cover scratched off so we didn't know what the game was. When I put it in my DS, that's when I was introduced to Urban Yeti 😢
It was fate
I remember seeing the commercial online and how it’s only available as an As Seen On TV product
So Urban Sasquatch is a terrible low budget movie. And Urban Yeti is a terrible low budget GBA game. I don't care that they are likely entirely unrelated, I am forever assuming they are both sequels to each other
Was that an actual “Nintendo Seal of Approval” on the back of that box?! That screams lie to me because I just can’t imagine anyone from Nintendo approving of this game from the quality alone, let alone the story.
HYPE, I love how I’ve legit grown up with thelonely goomba, bro just knows how to make my dat
Re-watching and commenting to boost the algorithm. Let's make the Yeti happy.
Also help Lonely Goomba to not get obliterated just for diversifying his content! You deserve to be able to upload what you want, with your signature and ever improving quality and be able to sustain yourself!!!
I’ve only seen this game as part of a GDQ, I thought it might of been a 2am fever dream… apparently not!
I still remember the audience's screams of terror every time that green yeti face popped up.
And the trombone disaster.
@@VonFirflirch the trombone disaster?
@@supercamborg4218
It's what someone at that GDQ called the sewer "level"'s """"""""music"""""""".
@@VonFirflirch makes sense
I bet that Yeti has a huge dumper like an Elephant to dump a huge dump.
I saw that commercial for this game years ago, and it was the most ridiculous thing ever.
This is top tier comedy
I remember seeing someone speedrunning it at GDQ, someone called the music in the sewer level "Trombone Disaster" which it makes sense.
That final female yeti picture reminds me of that Donna Noble thing in that Dr. Who library, but then surrounded by fur.
A lonely goomba upload is always a good upload
this game has the same energy as takeshi's challenge
This game is awful to play, but it's such a crazy experience lmao, the devs were having the time of their life with it i imagine
I only got to know about this game because i was looking for the composer (Randy Wilson) other works, since I am most familiar with his work on Spider-Man 1 and 2 GBA games (the ones based on the movies, I like the first game a lot!)
He also did music for Tom and Jerry and the Magic Ring GBA (very awful beat em up)
I'm so glad CZcams managed to randomly suggest this channel to me! Trying to catch up on the whole Goomba saga AND there's still new shows!
Truthfully the most underrated channel relating to near everything I like!!! Thank you Goomba!
Lonely Goomba has all these useful accessories but I question how he gets batteries for his gba. I actually used to have rechargeable batteries so I guess that explains it
Your channel deservers more views and recognition it criminal how under appreciated it is ever since I discovered it early this year I watched every episode
I love watching videos about games i never heard of! Thanks for sharing this gift with the rest of us Goomba!
Other weird GBA games to look at could include Wade Hixton's Counterpunch and Sabrewulf. I loved those
I remember seeing a speedrun of this at AGDQ. Every time the green yeti appears on screen, everyone goes AHHHHHHHHHHH!
We got it to 25k! Let's keep it up!
We need to make this video gain a cult following.
Okay, now this is a video game that I never heard about before until now.
Came here from Grumps to see what happens after the yeti gets away on the car. Poor Arin didn’t have a chance. 😂
Great video! Definitely going to check out more of your stuff. Your animations are great!
Yeah haha. I watched the video too and I doubt there will be a part 2 cos its too cryptic how to progress. Also thank ye
Dang I haven't seen this guy in super long time and the way he drew the goomba looks different.
Also perfect timing to run across this video because I just yesterday bought a copy of a comic book and the front cover had a yeti on it well a regular colored humanoid ape thing which strangely this is a regular colored as well so not a yeti either.
The accessories the GBA has is insane. When did they make a phone?
Wow this is surreal, I just saw a clip of this game in a 10 year old MechaGameZilla video and less than a few hours later I find a whole review on it.
Urban Yeti may not be a unanimous favorite, but we can all agree that it is, without question, one of the games released for the GBA.
He's the Angry Video Game Goomba! 🎶
At least you persevered and beat the game. 👍
So a Yeti is just running around a city and no one in the city finds it strange or is trying to hunt him down? Maybe he's not a yeti, maybe he's just some dude with Hypertrichosis.
When I first encountered this channel a few weeks ago, I had nothing better to do and clicked. I thought to myself, "oh great another goomba channel, way to go bowser you've got one hell of a workforce moonlighting on youtube. Gaijingoomba that weeb, home&gardengoomba, bdsmgoomba, just goombas everywhere. But then I saw the circumstances in which this particular goomba found himself. This poor soul, forever trapped in between two pipes, eternally cursed to play games for our amusement.
It was a truly haunting thought that this could have happened to any of us, but where we would curl up and die, this goomba decided to LIVE.
I am here to watch your yeti video, goomba-san, as I have watched many of your others. We will weather the low viewership storm together, as brothers.
Best Lonely Goomba Video hands down. Great comedy timing with a great game 🎉
I only heard of it through a Tip and Tricks cheat guide.
This game was always a curiosity to me. I saw ads for it in a magazine and every time I'd try and play it, I'd get my ass kicked.
That is a tough. Fucking. Broken game. I can't believe you've done this.
I still come back to this one, criminally underrated. Certified Goomba Classic
I remember watching you when I was 6-7. I’m now 16 going on 17. You being a main part of my childhood shaped me into the young man I am today. Glad you still post
Who developed this? **googles** Cave Barn Studios. I mean, did they actually program this game in an actual barn? 😆
This quality of animation, writing, and editing is incredible as always, even if the game itself isn’t. I just watched a 17 minute video about a game I’ve never heard or cared about but I enjoyed every bit of it😂
Ahh, way too many relatable jokes in this one!
From struggling to find anything worth watching on TV (while failing to comprehend how the older relatives who lecture you about gaming could sit in front of the tube all day); to getting scammed by a call girl when all you wanted was a video game; to the fact that you need 30 years of experience to get an entry-level job (130 years once AI becomes more entrenched in the workforce, and no, working on Lackadaisy, Monkey Wrench or any other viral indie animated hit isn't sufficient proof that you can be trusted to sweep Disney's floors); to getting abducted and mugged by a UFO and dealing with the emotional duress by whacking off to a picture of a woman that is not attractive or even healthy by any stretch of the imagination!
This was a particularly good episode.
Well, you certainly weren't kidding with the title. I've definitely never heard of this game before. But it certainly looks weird as heck. It doesn't look like something I would play, though.
Speaking of things I've never heard of, I've never heard of the Gameboy TV Tuner before. Did it actually work?
Urban Yeti was truly the Mobius of Lonely Goomba videos.
Unless he talks about Mobius for the DS.
Of all the game boy games in existence this was certainly one of them. I am completely speechless.
I actually did know about this one, since it's a bit of a famous kusoge.
But cool to have a good video covering it!
I definitely woulda gotten frustrated with this game as a kid lmao
If i discovered this game as a kid, I'd probably be too scared to finish it
Especially with that music, holy shit 6:42
This isn't the first time I've heard of urban yeti but, it was the first time I've heard of the Gameboy advance tv tuner.
Would've missed this video had you not posted that image, goomba. This was a funny review!
At least Urban yeti is a better love story then twilight.
Truly inspirational, great video man! Great work on it as always. Gives me joy to watch your videos.
When you said "I ran out of games to play", I was like - But WhAt ABoUt Shark Tale for the GBA?!
I'm kidding, of course. Just recently visited this game from childhood, especially for one mini-game.
12:17 still can't get over the fact that the face is permanently stapled to my brain
Commenting to support and say quality work as always.
The effort in the animation is noticed 🔥🔥🔥
Your videos are so entertaining. thank you for making them :)
I LEARNED ABOUT THIS GAME FROM PAN PIZZA. I can't be the only one who knows the game's existence thanks to him.
Seventh best form of transportation...? Elaborate? YAYAYAY GOOD VIDEO AHHHHHHHH
What's an Urban Yeti? No really what really is an Urban Yeti?
Yup I’m getting philosophical.
That introduction was awesome, the set up was great.
I love the part where he climbed onto Kitt from knight rider, and got abducted by aliens. Seriously, I swear to God that car is Kitt.
Oh Urban Yeti, you one day will be vindicated
I feel like I haven't woken up today after watching this
I think I'm going to have nightmares tonight after discovering this game
Just found your channel bro! I love the intro and the animation so much! Respect man! 💪🏼
Another absolute banger episode Goomba! I'm completely baffled to why your vids don't get more views, your gaming content is pure gold and quality! Don't give up buddy, your motivation to your uploads will pay out in the long run! best wishes from a fan since your "Elmo in Grouchland" video lol! 👍
Another kino piece of video.
Thanks for the good stuff throughout the years and may good fortunes fall upon you
2:55 Still better resolution than in any Bigfoot/Yeti photo claims.
This game was so intriguing I had to research it before the premiere
Finally got around to watching this, since I could sit down and actually watch it. This was great, I didn't even know there were "as seen on TV" games
So glad I finally got around to watching this one, always funny stuff and where else would I hear about such an obvious gem of a game?!
I keep getting urban yeti videos at the top my recommended after watching this lol. Thanks CZcams I'd love to listen to the urban yeti sewer theme for 20 minutes
your quality keeps getting better!
Very excited to see Lonely Goomba again 😁
