Wayforward is definitely a company that has some dedicated followers post the popularity boom of Shantae. I appreciate their work but I have to admit that I don't really enjoy anything they put out. Not a fan of 2D/Sidescrollers and that's like 99% of their library. That said I do have some interest in Sigma Star Saga but I've never been able to find a copy for a decent price and I don't want to play it digitally. I do want to check out the Advance Wars reboot and for sure the Clock Tower remaster/remake when that comes out. Hopefully they continue to grow and evolve with time. Even if their target audience isn't me for the vast majority of releases the ones that do stand out I think look neat.
Thanks for sharing! I agree with some of what you said. I'd glad they usually give licensed games a try and don't just cash grab it
I like the fact that WayForward is like a gaming chameleon, they have all kinds of games, remasters, collections, run and gun, Beat up, re-released old beat up, medroidvania, 2.5D medroidvania, they do it all
And pretty well too
WayForward is 100% my favorite game devs. I have yet to play a bad game from them and was VERY excited to see Nintendo having them remaster Advance Wars.
What's your favorite game by way forward?
The Advance Wars Remakes were very disappointing apparently the AI was much worse making the games much easier.
Why dis dood sound dead inside.
Because I am
@@Shnickerman Is this text to speech? Just some bits sound a bit like it, not sure if it's because of some kind of noise filter.

If you forgot the name of the French speaking alien from Mighty Milky Way, Luna is her name.
Thanks!
Okey dokey
Poor Milky. Definitely deserves a comeback.
I agree!
Hotel Transylvania Is A Tough Game To Play Also
I always get surprized seeing games on here that I forgot Wayforward made. spongebob squarepants the movie the game kicked ass regardless of the system it was released on.
Yea they have quite the diverse resume of games
There are few games of theirs which I'm really familiar with besides Shantae, however the other ones I was thinking of weren't here, or I missed them. Like Contra 4 on the DS, and Batman The Brave and The Bold on Wii (just picked this one up, always heard a lot of praise for it). A lot of the license stuff just isn't for me, even if the game is good... sometimes the IP can still kill off enthusiasm for a game. Seems like they've gotten stuck with a lot of questionable IPs over the years. They're an enigma in that way, always contracting their talent out to a publisher who's just trying to cash in on naive children, and then taking the time to make the games actually good.
Im always just baffled at the diversity of licenses they worked with. Barbie to the Mummy to Aliens
3:52 (1st) 14:52 (2nd) 22:45 (3rd) 25:20 (4th) and 26:58 (5th) those are my favorite games and i give them a 10/10!
Thanks for sharing
no problem @@Shnickerman!
Risky Revolution was never released because the GBA couldn't handle the game, so they shelved it. Glad to see it finally being released.
Yea it was a pleasant surprise
Nope, it's not that. It was never released because of expensive cartridge manufacturing costs.
Mr. Bozon didn't want to do creative compromises to get the game on a tiny, tiny cartridge (presumably 4MB with battery backup) or a cartridge where you couldn't save your progress (presumably an 8MB cartridge without battery backup).
The full Shantae Advance game probably would have required a 16MB cartridge with battery backup, which was too expensive to manufacture for an indie game, and no publisher was interested due to poor sales of the GBC original. Development would be paused in 2004, but... Orbital Media's Scurge: Hive was lucky enough to see the light of day on GBA, 2 years after the DS came out, and that game needed a 16MB cartridge with battery backup. WayForward could have easily released Shantae Advance back in 2005 or 2006, assuming the bigger capacity cartridge costs lowered.
However, thanks to Limited Run Games, Mr. Bozon has been able to give Shantae Advance another shot, and will be available for pre-order this fall. Shantae Advance's development kinda reminds me of Ultracore and Clockwork Aquario.
@@vincenzomottola7778 That's closer to what the problem was with Shantae 1. During the live stream they did of the game they explained that the biggest problem was that they couldn't find a publisher because no one wanted to publish non-licensed games on GBA. If it's not based on a cartoon, no Western publisher was touching it and there was a pretty hefty list of games which never got released due to that. As you mentioned, Scurge lucked out.
My first and favorite game I played that WayForward was involved, was Adventure Time: Explore the Dungeon Because I DON'T KNOW!
This game made part of my childhood, and I played it recently and the game still good. I wish people could notice this game as well and try to bring back to Steam
I think somehow i Ieft out that one! Now I'm sad 😭
@@Shnickerman It's ok, dude. We are not a machine to remember everything, you did your best in this video and I am happy
@@-_Little_- thanks for watching! I hope one day someone can re release the AT games!
@@Shnickerman yeah, they are very underestimated
ping palls looks like nfts
It was myspace
Kunio and Riki are not the main protagonists of River City Girls. The Story is about Kunio and Riki being kidnapped and you play as their Girlfriends Kyoko and Misako

Some Wayforward Games Are Too Complicated Like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Danger Of The Ooze And Shantae and the Pirate's Curse
Complicated in what way?

Patricia Vagon and Shantae be Alies / Partners/ Lovers of Ash Wiliams 20 años (Army of darkness), love you love you love Adriana Figueroa
I freaking despise Bakugan: Champions of Vestroia. To me, it’s the worst game ever made.
What don't you like about it?
@@ShnickermanThe gameplay’s boring, the graphics are cursed and the music barely even exists.
cursed graphics?@@juliannocartagena2007
@@Shnickerman I just don’t like how they look ok?
@@juliannocartagena2007 that's fair!
Love Wayforward, they're one of my favorite developers because of the artstyle and gameplay styles they favor. You sound kinda bored though.
What's your favorite one?
