- A playthrough of Interplay's 1995 platformer for the Super Nintendo, Boogerman: A Pick and Flick Adventure.
For as long as I've been old enough to tell a coherent joke, I've had an inexplicable fascination with the ones that largely exist to offend people's sensibilities. I guess every boy of a certain age probably goes through that, but I can still quite well appreciate fart jokes, women jokes, religious jokes, Goatse - I can laugh forever at any and all of them. The lower brow they are, the funnier I usually find them.
As a kid, I loved all of those things in my video games. For whatever reason, though, Boogerman never appealed to a tween me when it first came out. I didn't play it until several years after the SNES had officially been killed and buried, but everytime I've played it as an adult, I always think of how a younger me would've gone crazy for it.
The game is a standard, fairly linear platformer like countless others in the 90s. You run around, collect stuff, kill enemies, and run to the exit. Nothing special there, but it does play well. The controls are a bit loose but they're reliable and simple, and the game poses a challenge without being too hard.
But really, the game is more a vehicle for whatever nasty imagery the good folks at Interplay could pack into it. Jumping on boils growing out of the floor nets you bonus points (with an exceptionally moist sound, no less!), getting sucked up into a giant nostril teleports you across a level, and snot covers nearly every surface in view.
Your weapons are the truly classy bits though - you can flick bogeys at the enemies, or you can wipe them out by launching burp and fart attacks. Not only do you have a short and long range version of the gas attacks, but you can also upgrade them with items. Are your boogers just not doing enough damage? Drink some milk, thicken that phlegm, and hock a heavy wet glob of lung butter at them instead. Not enough methane in your growling bowels? Eat some chili peppers and watch Vesuvius erupt! Obviously, this is a game with real sense of propriety.
The nicely animated graphics, catchy music, and clear speech and sound effects should be mentioned, too. They sell the grossness well.
The humor certainly gives Boogerman its personality, and while the gameplay never quite set the gold standard, it's well above average for a SNES platformer. Even if you stripped it of its theme, it would still be a thoroughly playable, well-produced game.
But still, what fun would that be when the game invests so heavily in being objectionable? If ever you had wanted a game that would've drawn looks of disgust from your mom, this would've been a top pick.

NintendoComplete (www.nintendocomplete.com/) punches you in the face with in-depth reviews, screenshot archives, and music from classic 8-bit NES games! - Hry
I remember playing this with my dad. It was really cool because my dad grew up playing it and then he handed it down to me. Such a great game and it reminds me so much of the good times with my dad. I miss him dearly.
Even Boogerman has the dead parents top comment. Lol
Your dad grew up playing this, tells me exactly how old you both are cuz I played this as a kid
I’m sorry about your Dad I was also a kid when this was released. He was likely born in the 80s
This game has some of the best animation of all time. Pretty impressive they could make such big sprites with so many animation frames on SNES.
boogerman wasnt nintendo it was Sega
@@TStewartfan09 Umm..It was released on both the Sega Genesis and the Super Nintendo (The SNES version actually had better animations, sound and slightly improved controls, and was generally considered the better version all-around), and it was developed by Interplay. So you're completely wrong on every level.
Ya know, you really should make sure you actually know what you're talking about before you try and correct someone otherwise you end up looking pretty silly.
It was originally developed for Genesis and later ported to Super Nintendo.
Boogerman is just as much of a class act as the title would imply. If you like gross out humor, this game does it like nothing else from the 16-bit era. It's actually a pretty good game, too.
Alex, will you cover the Genesis version of this game? It's better than the SNES Boogerman.
I certainly like how even the most critical people liked this game.
@@Dorian_Scott It is the exact same damned game, how is it better? If you say music, then you are way off, the music heard here fits the theme of the game far better than the Genesis version. The game is whimsical, the music is whimsical, and the SNES version nails it perfectly. This isn't some serious dark game with dark music, it's a damned comedy game about burps, farts, boogers, and snot. This game isn't even close to the better platformers on the SNES or Genesis, not even another game put out by Interplay (with Shiny), the Earthworm Jim games.
@@Bloodreign1 The Genesis OST just sounds more clear and has better use of instrumentation than the SNES OST. I *_DO_* think the latter is fine, too. But, this is another case of the SNES music being in the background rather than being prominent, like the Sega version.
Out of all your responses to my comments, the OST from *_"Boogerman"_* of all things? (🤨????)
kids snes
This game is my childhood. Thanks for the nostalgia.
Brings back so many childhood memories 😭
I applaud all parents of the 90s that had to hear that fart noise every 10 seconds.
Cool job. My favorite Interplay game along with Earthworm Jim and Clayfighter!
And Rock n Roll racing
Shame that the Kickstarter revival didn't end up well
for a game based on boogers, shit, burps and farts? i wonder why....
I really love the 16 bit era . Even though it wasn't real 3D ,the 5 multiple scrolls that the SNES could crank out along with the far superior stereo sound over the Genny was just magic .Although the Genesis had its advantages with games like Sonic . Really fond memories .
BOOGER!!!
Omg I remember having two copies of this game as a child and it felt like a pipe dream remembering it 😂😂😂
Boogerman >>> All marvel heroes
Agreed. Look at 1:08:32
BMan: Catches the villain in his secret lair by besting all his servants in mortal combat
"Ah hah!"
BMeister: "Well well, if it isn't Boogerboy himself!
"I'll finish you off, then *your world will be MINE-!"*
BMan: Unintimidated by this hulking, eight-foot tall abomination of a man possessed by some horrible pink creature inside him. Defiant and sure in his righteousness to the point where he doesn't even acknowledge any of the context of the threat. Even though this thing just told him he was literally about to murder Boogerman and then conquer his world through ungodly gross sickness and plagues
*"Not if I stop you first!"*
Boogerman is such a chad. He's just some smelly dorky janitor weirdo who saw that the machine which would save the world was in danger and quickly puts together a silly outfit. And goes to become a fucking super hero using his congestion and bodily issues TO FIGHT MONSTROUS ALIEN CREATURES FROM ANOTHER DIMENSION ON THEIR HOMEWORLD
For the greater good. Not for glory. Not for gain. No one even knew he was doing this, he was alone in the lab that night, and I'm sure the time dilation between dimensions made it so he was only gone for like half an hour, but for him? It was hours and hours and hours of battle he willingly sloughed through to save his people.
John Goodman would have been a perfect Boogerman if this was made into a movie.
Probably my favorite genesis game. It's debatable, but I'll always remember this one.... Super fun
I could pay for see this guy again, a shame about the failed kickstarter.
But I like Boogernan, he is only trying to save the world with some dirty tricks, how can't you love him?
I think this game could be a perfect franchise to be a Nickelodeon cartoon in the 90s. It probably wouldn't be more hated by parents than Ren & Stimpy
As a dumb preadolescent in this era, weaned on Beavis and Butt-head and Ren and Stimpy, this game was difficult because I was laughing too hard. BOOGER!
Boogerman... finally the hero humanity deserves! :p
You can actually move around the credits screen and change clothes as long as you don't go out the left exit
1:49 That cartoon fart noise!
I remember renting and playing this on Genesis when I was younger. I managed to beat it after I burnt my hand on my grandpa's tractor, though I had to keep pausing it and putting my hand in a bowl of ice water to soothe the pain.
I've seen a review by someone claiming this version's music is bad, I say what the hell. The music is actually quite good as expected for the platform, it's whimsical, just like the mood of the game is, a game not to be taken seriously.
Remember this from my childhood. The gross out gimmick made it memorable, otherwise it is just a fairly run of the mill platformer.
This brought me back memories of like 4th grade with my friend Charlie. I burped today and thought about it.
I like that face he makes when he jumps :D.
They should put this on the SNES online for the Switch
I remember reading a review of this saying it was sort of like a gross Aladdin clone. I kinda agree with that. I didn't play it until many years later, but it's actually a really great time. The music kicks ass, too.
the genesis soundtrack was pretty good in my opinion, i’d say i prefer it more than the snes version although the voicelines are better on the snes
This game is real. I remember playing it, but I thought it was a fever dream
My cousin had this in his basement, played it once never got to beat It. I'm surprised anybody actually even remembered this. It just popped into my head one day and wondered if anyone filmed them playing so I could reminisce. Way grosser than I remember lol.
I'm so glad I finished eating right before opening CZcams...
The Sega Genesis version is the Superior game.
Doesn't seem like the same team made both games then, or that wouldn't have happened. Of course I don't really find either game that good, though the Genesis version fell in my lap years ago.
It’s refreshing to see people playing theese old games it’s just a shame there not ported to modern consoles yeah sure zombies ate my neighbours and ghoul patrol are on the modern consoles but seriously earthworm Jim boogerman maniac mansion all theese forgotten gems are quite litterly stuck in the past it’s sad really
The fact that this game wasnt just some crazy fever dream i had when i was 3 years old blows my mind
1:12:27
what the hell do the creators do at the end of the game
Hard to Imagine that This is the same company that Made the first 2 Fallout games (Bethesda bought the rights to Fallout) Clayfighter and Earthworm Jim (Which was made at around the same time).
I thought this was only on Sega Genesis, but turns out it was also on SNES too! I've never heard of that! 😂
I remembered this fever dream during a 4 hour drive to a job site. It crept up the dark crevices of my brain and I suddenly remembered.. BOOGER!!!!
Honestly what the fuck even was I playing as a kid lmao
This game made me laughing because of booger man farts
This is extremely nostalgic and revolting
i was 35 yrs old saw add on m t v next day i had bugger +still do
man that awesome sauce right there.
You mean the game, or is Boogerman experiencing some anal leakage? I mean, I've never heard of rectal drool being called awesome sauce, but hey, who am I to judge?
Might be a gross out game, but it is very interesting and unique!
I love booger man im in love with him
i ate the hot peppers & flew around by rocket farts
Un Maldita Grasa Boogerman😔👌💯💯💯
If this is a adventure? I'd pick it.
Boogerman o herói mais porco dos Videogames
Boogerman The Pigest Hero in Video Games
Boogerman’s voice in this game is Michael Mcconnohie aka Charles Brittania on code geass
When I played this game for the first time I couldn’t stop laughing it was too funny 😂 I liked this game
Why did you not fly when you get the pepper?
What a weird game.
41:47 Ooh! 😆🤣
Yep. Used to have it for Sega Genesis
Game is getting higher on value
Specially this version
Idk why :/
SNES version goes for $100+ or close in some carts case. The Genesis version remains around the $10 mark. I have the Genesis version only because it was given to me for free by a former coworker due to her son getting out of video games, so she passed them on to me, including Boogerman for the Genesis. Would've preferred the SNES version, but c'est la vie.
Este juego siempre me perturbo cuando yo era chico ;-;
oh my, those sounds.
This looks like a job...for BOOGERMAN!!!!!!!
Very good 😂👍
Esse jogo é muito legal.
Anyone think Earthworm Jim's sidekick, snot, was a reference to Booger Man?
Well, both Earthworm Jim AND Boogerman were brought to us by Interplay. And both those guys even appeared in Clay Fighter 63 1/3 for the N64, so...
Snot came first.
don't see any of the big monsters like the abominable sewerman etc in the snes version, did they take them out?!
Everything is intact, the game wasn't censored in any way for the SNES.
Why do I get pizza tower vibes
This needs to come to Switch.
Hell yeah it does !!! I love it as a kid
I was a little kid I played this game booger man I was 6 years old when this game came out
"The SNES version is a solid improvement over the Genesis game that it was ported from"
Does that include the cropped screen resolution?
It never bothered me too much, but in all honesty, that's probably because I played the SNES version first. You can't miss what you don't know, right?
But it wouldn't have been a simple case pulling the camera farther out. The sprites (and usually the backgrounds) in these old 2D games all used raster graphics drawn directly on-screen from the game's memory, so to resize them, every bit of art in the game would've had to be redone for a new resolution by hand. At this resolution, merely scaling them down would turn them into a pixelated mess.
Ah my bad, I just realized I kinda half responded to both of you guys in the same message. You made a good point, I thought. I never noticed that before you said it tbh, but you're totally right. That is a good compromise that some games did make. I actually went and loaded up Lion King on my SNES and then loaded up the old PC version (basically SNES colors at Genesis resolution), and the screen is cropped but it does nicely avoid that problem of not being able to see far enough ahead.
Yeah, I remember being so annoyed so many times at Sonic. Doing super well, moving super fast, oops.... no more rings.
I didn't know about EJ2 either, that's another one I've only ever really played on PC. I'll have to check it out.
@Joshua Farrelly "SNES side-view games that scroll with your character positioned farther back than the center of the screen. Some games would adjust the position of your character as you reach full speed, like Donkey Kong Country"
Even that gets annoying, because of the way the camera jars back and forth every time you change direction. What a mess. Genesis does.
Resolution doesn't change how a game play though, if you master one version, you can master the other just as easily. At this point it's no longer sound or graphics that Genesis fanboys try to come at the SNES fans with (and look foolish doing so as graphics tended not to be too different between the 16 bit consoles, sound on the other hand, different can of worms), but about screen res. I swear I have seen a ton of posts from Genesis fans using that as a weapon against SNES fans, sounds like last resort to me.
As for me, I collect games for both consoles, so I don't give a damn about resolution, or none of the other fluff. If the console had games I like, I buy said game if it isn't too expensive, SNES or Genesis, or SFC or Mega Drive.
Snes version is missing some speech due to cartridge size limitations.
How to download that
I've completed this. No doubt one of the best looking games on the Mega Drive. But like similar platformers like Chuck Rock it's quite annoying to play - bad guys that blend into the background, limited piwer ups etc.
Western made games tended to have issues, including stuff like open levels with no clear goal marked, or backgrounds that blended with the foregrounds (Earthworm Jim, Aladdin, or Jungle Book anyone?), or inane level design.
It's kinda scary that a game called Boogerman has animation like this
¡BOOGEEEEEEEEEER!!!
What if Boogerman was in smash?
Stage 1 music is jamming
ikr 🤣
It's a dam shame they couldn't fit all the speech on the cart from the Mega Drive version likely due to cartridge constraints Boogerman not saying cool when he collects an item is weird. They should have used a more expensive 32 meg cartridge so we could have heard Boogerman say cool dammit.
I had a physical game that was a big nose and you had to take turns reaching in and pulling long green boogers out and if you pulled the wrong one it would set something off, cant remember what happened, but it meant you lost
Late 80s early 90s were great
One of those few times where the Genesis port is better than the SNES one...
Is it possible to enter the toilet in 1-2 Flatulent Swamps?
Booger is a old friend of the Trash Pack gang? 😂😂
I dont know why everyone is saying Boogerman is Nintendo because it was Sega I know this as I played this on the genesis
Boogerman started off as a Sega Genesis title, yes. If I remember correctly Nintendo wasn't too fond of the games content of Farts and Burps, poop and "gross" weapons. However once they saw how popular it was on the Genesis they "allowed" it on the SNES.
Who remembers when it was a challenge on GamesMaster and he wore an interactor vibration backpack so he could feel Boogermans "rip roaring farts"?
I don't, but I wish I did
What's wrong with the Genesis version
Nothing is wrong with it. I just think this one looks and sounds better.
@@NintendoComplete how about paperboy 2 on Genesis
@EAD519 it sounds better too.
Nothing is wrong with the Genesis version it is widely considered the better version of the game like the original Earthworm Jim.
@@supersexysega These two games are better on Sega because the wider horizontal screen resolution and much soundtrack than the SNES versions.
The SNES versions *are* good games, but they *really* fall flat with the muffled sound and cropped screen resolution.
1:08:43 the real battle begins
Bugger!
this guy will never be in Smash man distasting
I'd love to kill the princess by farting her to death. How about just giving Boogerman's moves to Wario? :) He's off-putting enough to make those moves appropriate. I think you're right though. Nintendo wouldn't go for it.
@@NintendoComplete well it's just me I mean using Boogers as a weapon irg
I unironically want boogerman in smash taking some of his moves from this game and clayfighter.
but yes wario in smash seems more like boogerman than the one from wario land.
@@NintendoComplete you have Wario for that xD
There's nothing better than good ol' grossout humor. Mega Babies vibes from this awesome SNES classic. Don't judge me.
Better on Sega. No doubt about it
This is an example of ageless work.
Yes it’s gross humor but you know, there’s always someone who goes farther. See South Park...
PS : this is not the grossest thing i saw. In my playlist of rarities and oddities, i have this czcams.com/video/6RXH8JEP4DI/video.html
While checking suggestions when i watched Thunder in Paradise, i came upon a game called Fox Hunt. I lack of words to describe this, but i can say that i had a good time.
Mokey Sr pelo brought me here
Not a bad game, but let's look deep and be honest - Not NEARLY enough boogers.
Dictated, but not read,
Dya and Chandler as well
Revolta: "I'll get you my pretty!" Boogerman: "Uh-oh!" jokes on you bitch Boogerman ain't pretty! lol
Одлична игрица
For all the shit Kickstarters that actually get funded its a shame that this 90's classic's sequel didn't get funded. Butt hey if the Bubsy revival taught us anything it's that any 90's franchise can be brought back. "Weather it was needed to or not." Here's looking at you yah nose goblin.
Why writred snes. It is sega. Gens?)
This is the SNES version, it exists. What you might call a multi-platform release when it came out.
SEGA version of Boogerman a thousand times better
👍👍👍👍👍👍✌✌✌✌✌✌👌👌👋👋👋

@@toreywhite9917 Cowabunga!
@@Valet2 It's *_"Rad"_* .
Genesis fans are triggered lol
Lmao ikr :)
They almost are always triggered. They claim everything is better for their console, when that wasn't always the case. I guess it's what you grew up on I suppose, and no one I knew other than 2 relatives had an SMS, and a few friends had Genesis consoles. Those friends would eventually dump their Genesis for either an NES, or an SNES.
this game is literally shitshow.
Oh snap! No you didn't!
Toilet Kids for PC Engine
Love SNES but I must admit, the Sega Genesis version is far much better than this.
