Bad Games Need Preservation Too! | Blaster Master Overdrive (Wii) | DELISTED [SSFF]

- čas přidán 7. 06. 2024
- Welcome to our dark digital future. Welcome to DELISTED. When Nintendo closed WiiWare, hundreds of games were lost. One game was Blaster Master Overdrive, a game that is not even listen on the developer's website anymore. Maybe because it's possibly the worst remake I've ever played! But bad games need preservation too!

"Bad games needs preservation too" might be the perfect encapsulation of this series future. We have a lot of documentation of delisted good games out there. Some got re-released too. But bad delisted games?
It’s hard to get excited about all the *miserable* licensed games too… but the piracy sites are surprisingly thorough in cataloguing even the trash.
There is an archive of I think all WiiWare titles (though currently missing game starting with A and B for some reason). Wii emulators are quite accurate now and you can also load games on USB with a modded Wii. You can find safe links to these archives on the emulation wiki
Except its not up to YOU to preserve games...These games get preserved, just because people don't have access to them doesn't change anything...Being "preserved" doesn't mean that people have access to them whenever they like.
I can just smell a T-shirt of that catchphrase being sold on Fangamer XD
@@lutherheggs451 while it’s true there is no obligation to provide something for sale, doing so, specifically with digital goods, movies, music, etc, all but guaranteed piracy.
In a lot of cases this is mutually beneficial. There’s no money to be made sometimes, and a lot of people horde roms with no intention to ever play them. No one loses when you pirate awesome possum on the Sega Genesis other than the person playing it.
I need that on a t-shirt: “When game preservation is outlawed, only outlaws will preserve games.”
Some of us are already outlaws so we got little to lose might as well save history.
Yeah, I wouldn't mind having a shirt like that myself. Got to love it when a gaming company refuses to allow ROMs to exist but then admits that they've lost the code to the games those people are trying to preserve.
You’d look like a turbo virg but at the same time that’d be kinda sick
then u can wear this shirt to prove ur nerdiness
BTW his fan artwork t-shirt is cool
maybe it's official merchandise Idk
a series about all the skeletons that already stopped fighting

I never would have expected one of the numerous AVGN inspired channels to stick around this long, one that started as a sort of parodied inversion (gushing cheerily about good games instead of raging at bad ones) to eventually evolve into a serious discussion of why it's important to preserve even bad and mediocre games for historical reasons.
"if there's a remake with worse music than this"
*Faint, distant RE basement horns*
Of all people, never expected to see you here.
Those dang clowns and their flatulence!
Not sure if that counts given the actual REmake stuck to recreating the original soundtrack and it's awesome, while the Director's Cut dualshock ver. is more of an odd re-release on the same console as the original (hell it's a re-release of a re-release, making it doubly odd).
That’s not a remake
Oh god, that clown music...
Honestly the fact that blaster master zero takes from EVERY point in the series probably is really neat
yes..even the book
It's so amazingly endearing when games themselves feel like fans of their own series, such as Final Fantasy IX, sonic mania or mario odyssey
To be fair, Blasting Again also used the Worlds of Power book for its lore. The protagonists are the children of Jason and Eve (Who was never in the lore of the original game, but might potentially be an interpretation of Metafight's Jennifer), the "Lightning Being" classification given to the Plutonium Boss in the book is expanded into an entirely new group of enemies. It was also released in Japan with no changes to its story or lore, so that might be why Inti Creates seems so familiar with it, or at least had a starting point to dig into the material.
The intro with the skeledude stopping, turning monochrome, falling away, rotating diagonally, and then turning negative is so fucking perfect, it's too good, lmaoo
great use of the P.T. font too, just noticed
1:58 the nerve on Reggie to continue to troll EarthBound fans from beyond his Nintendo Grave.
It’s like he bought the rights and took them with when he left Nintendo.
I think it has more to do with the pop culture references.
I don't think Nintendo sees Earthbound the same way as the fans do, they don't see a profit and don't care about how good of a game it is, the mother series was never a massive success for Nintendo compared to say Mario, Donkey Kong, Legend of Zelda, Metroid, Smash Bros, or even Kirby. F Zero and Earthbound/Mother are heavily slept on by Nintendo simply because they know they can make more money releasing games from their more popular and successful first party IP's.
I'll take "Things that didn't age well" for 500, Alex.
Guess what
"Does the Zelda timeline have AN OFFICIAL BOOK in its canon?"
..........Does it count that the Zelda timeline is officially detailed...IN a book?
I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if there was a Japan-only book that we know nothing about.
No
uhhhh, well the artbooks do drop some lore that is generally considered canon, so I guess?
Trying to remember if the Zelda manga are "canon". I don't believe they are (as they take liberties with large portions of the games), but the Majora's Mask one has a whole bit about the origin of the mask that isn't in the game. Maybe that part might be canon?
@@gariko I don't believe the manga are considered "canon" by Nintendo (as much as that matters, with them getting more loose with Zelda canon nowadays), with the exception of maaaaaybe the Skyward Sword prologue one that was reprinted in Hyrule Historia.
Though if you want to go for the "canon where they don't contradict the games" route, sure I guess. Personally, I'd rather the mask's origins be left up to mystery.
Oof, this series is bound to dredge up a lot of games I regretted not getting when the Wii Shop closed. Even in a post Blaster Master Zero world, I'd still sit down to play this one if given the chance.

Fear of missing out
"Bad games need preservation too" is something that I think not enough people have internalized, and I'm glad y'all are putting it out there
Awesome idea for a new series! Please bring back DK Bongos music breakdowns again 😆 Pls consider WWE Immortals, made by Mortal Kombat boffins but the quality of MK Annihilation
When WM: The Arcade Game gets even MORE abstract.
Absolutely fucking love that all my favorite channels seem to be fans of each other.
Suddy butts
Welp, wasn't expecting to see you guys here :D
WWE IMMORTALS WAS THE SHIT
ALSO DID NOT EXPECT YOU HERE
More games need the Blaster Master Zero treatment. Imagine if Wayforward or Inti Creates got their hands on Shatterhand, Powerblade, or Faxanadu.
Faxanadu is such a gem.
Oh a shatter hand game would be so sweet. Just the concept alone makes me salivate.
or startropics, somehow
Oh my god. Power Blade by Inti. 😮
Metal Warriors!
There is SO MUCH to be learned from bad games, often they try too much or do the bare minimum but this allows for other devs to really see what worked and what didn't. Bad games are just as good to look into if not easier because of this, with good games you can get overwhelmed by the amount of stuff that does work that it's hard to really see what actually works. Love the new series and love looking into bad games, it's always amazing the work people put into games even if the game doesn't turn out well.
Physical games - Over time might be harder to find and more expensive.
Digital games - Over time might be delisted and unavailable.
Sometimes the games industry really tries to make finding and playing older games a real hassle or impossible.
i mean obviously that way you can pay way more for the new game
if only there was a way to combine the best parts of both mediums, infinite supply of digital goods, and the way they can't be taken away from you like physical ones...if only there was a way
Not really? I mean, the first one is literally just what you sign up for when buying literally any physical object. The second is what you sign up for when buying any software object. Physical media breaks over time, and while software doesn't, it *does* require some amount of maintenance even if that's just in the form of server time/space used to store and/or distribute it. So...'things become harder to find as you move in time away from the last time one was manufactured' and 'it costs some amount of money to keep digital games around, every corporation is a Profit Optimization Algorithm and so even if that amount of extremely low it's still too much for something which isn't earning any money"
Neither is a particularly inspired observation.
Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a Darklord and Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King are two games I wish I got while WiiWare was up.
I'd love to see the entire ReBirth series covered in a video, I don't know if there's a good reason they've never been put on a non-Wii system but it's probably just Konami being Konami
Agreed. I need to hear SSFF talk more about Gradius Rebirth.
I remember playing the wiiware version of Cave Story and being underwhelmed by the remade soundtrack. A lot of the tracks gave the impression of listening to okay elevator tunes instead of the good ol' NES inspired tunes of the original.
Final Fantasy 14 1.0 would fit here.
The devs literally killed it with fire.
the somewhat "off" aesthetic of it kind of reminds me of how i felt with sonic 4:EP1.
also i loved BMZ3, was a fantastic way to cap of the trilogy.
I still need to play the whole trilogy lol, it looks soooo good but there's millions of games out there. I really hope I can play them all one day, fantastic looking trilogy. Hopefully inti does more stuff like it
@@twincherries6698 The trilogy was/is fantastic. All the references to other Sunsoft titles and Metafight/some of the other Blaster Master games are really nice touches too. I really hope Inti gets the opportunity to continue the series in new ways.
So funny that this comes out, I recently got a Wii that had Blaster Master Overdrive and Castlevania The Adventure Rebirth already on it, with a bunch virtual console titles there too!
The Castlevania the adventure rebirth is the saddest I think or at least one of the saddest delisted games from the Wii. Contra rebirth is definitely another one.
@@JohnDoe-wq5eu I loved Contra Rebirth's over-the-topness. It really leaned into how goofy the series was when you think about it. Never will forget Chief Salamander and his Neo Salamander force, or a certain character going undercover as a local woman to get intel.
Also the large number of playable characters was nice
"I'll never need another game again!"
\muffled sound of parents screaming/
My favorite Wiiware game was LostWinds and its sequle Winter of the Melodias. Thankfully both were ported to steam, but it saddens me no one talks about them.
Still gotta play the second one. Thankfully, I downloaded that one before the shop closed.
God those games were good. Steam version is pretty good but it doesn't feel quite as good as the Wii version. Something about that Wii pointer just made it perfect
Still been meaning to play Blaster Master Zero as I owned the original growing up and loved it despite never being able to get past a certain boss (wish I knew the pause trick).
Also great idea for a series, plenty of games to talk about. Oh if there's a game to suggest... obviously I think a lot of people want to hear about Castlevania Rebirth.
This series was a great idea! Can't wait to see what else you'll cover!
Hell yeah! The United Kingdom is a country of countries, and Stop Skeletons From Fighting is a show of shows. I'm dying to see more of Delisted.
The Off-key pitch bends in the soundtrack instantly reminded me of the shitty Skrillex MIDI vinesauce Joel found doing Windows XP destruction. Hilariously bad
"Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites" was, if I remember correctly, the MIDI in question.
While we are talking about WiiWare, you totally should look into Onslaught. I never hear anyone talking about that and maybe it even went under your radar (it probably didn't). It's a decent game and it's sad it wasn't ported anywhere.
When people your age make self-deprecating jokes about being "old," imagine how those of us who played "Pong" when it was a new game feel! When self-deprecation unintentionally becomes other-deprecation! :-D
This video made me realize that there's quite some irony to this channel.
When it started, its whole point was to specifically talk about good games instead of the bad ones. Yet nowadays, you very often see Derek go "I FRICKIN LOVE BAD AND UNNECESSARY GAMES!!!". Really kinda love this twist! 😅
This series is starting out great and I can't wait to see further videos. Listening to the botched ports of classic tunes really made me weep. For some reason, I really have a fascination for horrible music in games. It makes me unreasonably happy.
Are you familiar with the Magmax (NES) soundtrack? There were some... interesting choices made on some tracks.
@@rareroe305 Didn't know that one yet - but it's exactly the kind of rather "wild" music I was talking about. Thanks for the hint!
The intro animation for this new series was hilarious
I'm really looking forward to this series! I'm especially excited to see a potential Scott Pilgrim episode, mostly because it's one of the few games to become relisted
If Konami doesn't re-release the rebirth games at some point that will be a huge waste. And leaving a ton of money on the table.
@@JohnDoe-wq5eu Konami isn’t interested in the cost of entry anymore, not when they can get that sweet sweet pachinko money for waaayyyy less investment.
@@kaitlyn__L
Collections are apparently still fair game though. I mean with the new advanced collection you can tell they're going to keep releasing stuff. Actually new stuff may be few and far between from them but I can tell they're going to keep milking their old franchises as long as they can.
Especially Castlevania and Contra seem like they still have a lot of content they could release just based on stuff they already have.
Also apparently pachinko isn't doing as well as it used to due to new Japanese regulations. They could move over as they have to things like slot machines but it sounds like that bubble may have already burst.
@@JohnDoe-wq5eu I actually must admit, I didn’t realise they had done re-releases recently. I had basically stopped following all Konami news after a couple years of “yep, just pachinko :(“. That’s somewhat promising.
@@kaitlyn__L
Yeah I was pretty much the same but I heard things here and there and they've started releasing collections the last couple years which is very promising, done by people who actually know what they're doing AKA M2. (Although I'm not sure if they did the advance collection that just released though I would assume they did) but yeah after Contra rogue corps hit with a thud they have kind of said they're going to be allowing outside companies to develop games for them. Which is the best news you could possibly have for Konami. There's more hope now for franchises they own then there has been in the last few years. I'm cautiously excited and optimistic for where things could go. I'm afraid to get my hopes up but I feel like things are at least moving in the right direction now.
One of my fave delisted digital only (?) games are After Burner Climax, otherwise available only in a huge expensive arcade cabinet form.
Well there is one version of that game available, unfortunately that version is the mobile version.
Lol
that was due to the rights to using the jet expiring
Mom uncle Derek is swearing a lot again..... yes he's talking about Blaster Master Overdrive
I like the idea of Delisted, plenty of things to highlight there. Especially the weird and the dumb. I hope you take a trip through the many lost joys of the Dreamcast
How about Christal Chronicles on the WiiWare, My Life as a King and My Life as a Dark Lord?
I'm digging out my copy of Blaster Master: Blasting Again and it's your fault, Derek.
Thank you
It's not really the kind of game you usually look at, but I always bring up how Wii VC had an official unreleased version of Ironclad for Neo Geo
The released one is only on Neo Geo CD and has slight differences mostly different sound and added loading times.
It was the only way to officially play the "MVS" version, so there's some neat trivia for you. It's also a great game imo
8:35 I thought the sonic 1 drowning music was anxiety driving, i think i have a new winner
Marvel vs Capcom Origins and MVC2 up next!!!
The Blaster Master book would make a fantastic episode of Punching Weight.
I got the book as a kid. It's a WAY BETTER READ than it ever deserved to be! And this was for a CHILDREN'S BOOK!
Seriously, someone needs to make a thorough episode on it! Maybe get in touch with the author, Peter Lerangis!
This makes so much sense for Uncle Derek to make as a series. I'm looking forward to learning about so many games I've never heard of!
Now THIS is a series I can really get behind! Preserving any video game has value, not just the great or even good games. The film industry has a problem where roughly 50% of all films ever released are either partially or wholly missing, including most (estimates range from 75% to 90%) of the silent film era!
We gamers still have a chance to keep video games from having a similar gap in it's early history through videos like this, ROMs, and preservation and restoration of physical copies of games.
I'm supposed to be above watching CZcams and video game channels with my current life and job, but you two are just so smart, endearing and homey, I can't stop coming back. I love you guys, I support you in everything. ❤
Can't wait to see what games I can download with my new car.
“Does the Zelda Timeline have an official book in its cannon?”
There are some Zelda choose your own adventure books, but I’m pretty sure they aren’t official cannon. Is it due to their obscureness, are they trash that Nintendo would rather sweep under the rug? Who knows? At the very least they’re official Nintendo products so I think they count.
The choose your own adventure books are based on the Oracle series. They're not original stories.
I think I had a, or some, Mario.
I do recall a short skyward sword prequel oneshot manga, although that was part of one of the historia books so IDK if that counts as a book in Zelda's canon
@@SECONDQUEST There were two Choose Your Own Adventure books that are unique stories from 1992, pre-Oracle series. I checked them out at a public library a loooooong time ago, like probably 2000 or so. zelda.fandom.com/wiki/Nintendo_Adventure_Books
@@johnmeroney2007 I had I think it was called leapin' lizards
Uncle Derek, your videos have given me a much greater appreciation of video games in general, for better or worse. It actually feels worth it to stomach some crappy games just for the sheer fun of it. I would probably have never figured that out on my own.
11:22 I remember reading about mdk2 in Nintendo power well over a decade ago wondering "wow, I've never heard of this game before, I wonder when it will come out". The article I read back when I was a kid is the last thing I remember seeing on it. Until now! That headline just awoke a memory in me. So, thanks for that.
Oh yeah, I've absolutely been a champion of preserving even the bad or "unimportant" games
Companies should offer a petition program where fans can vote to bring certain titles back.
Colour me sold!
I love this new series already, and am surprised we have waited this long for a "Derek's Delisted Garbage Variety Hour"
Friendly reminder to obviously check out the reboot that Inti Creates did, Blaster Master Zero along with its sequels.
that earthbound bit hurts lol, time is a circle and nintendo will always keep up hungry, i have a feeling they'll come up a lot in this series
The big thing with Fred being left out until later games is probably that originally, in Japan, Blaster Master is entirely different in terms of plot. Actually, each Blaster Master piece of media basically before the Zero games has a different plot, haha. Zero 1 just threw all the previous game plots into a blender to unify all of the series' coolest ideas
Oh man, this series can have so much content. I'd love to see an episode on After Burner Climax, one of the first games I bought BECAUSE it was being delisted!
I'll always love your unbridled and contagious optimism and excitement for the weird and forgotten.
Something that I'd like to see a video on is games where updates that significantly changed the game and got overwritten. There's a lot of fighting games that had characters reworked across patches, for example in Blazblue chrono phantasma 1.01 Kokonoe was infamously and absurdly busted, later patches toned her down and now it's not possible to access the old patch where she was fucked up. Your only (legal) options are to delete all update data which reverts the game to before she was released, or update to the latest patch where she's toned down. That one in particular is a pretty notable piece of fighting game history, but there's others too and this is only going to become more common as more games get regular patches as opposed to sequels. I don't see a lot of talk about preserving game patches outside of like, speedrunning, but I think it's incredibly important for the historical record to be able to go back.
"...3D Brown of War."
Never were truer words spoken.
I don't comment often, but loving the idea of this series. There's something intoxicating about coverage of bad games. A few other channels I subscribe to frequently mention they get the most views on "bad game" videos.
Zelda technically does have a book in its timeline in the back of Hyrule Hystoria, there is a one shot manga that does contain information about the original link that fought alongside the goddess hylia... So yes there is a book as part of the Canon
Oh so that's where the watermelon is from... I may need to get into this...
That's a fair take. I enjoyed the game itself well enough (some of the bosses were pure bullet hell), but the presentation was oof-tastic. Definitely sounded like a bad MIDI soundfont, and the graphics really could have used more variety and polish.
Derek's enthusiasm is what sells this channel. Never played any Blaster Master but it was such a fun video because of that.
"If there's a remake that's got worse music than this, let me know"
Does the Dualshock version of Resident Evil 1 count?
Not sure if it fully counts a remake, more like a special edition. But all I gotta say for those who dont know, just look up the re 1 basement theme for the dual shock version

I mean that is a good question is it more offensive to fake being blind or fake being deaf?! Although I don't know how I missed the fact that he was deaf because a deaf musician is much more impressive what was I thinking?!
Yay! I'm really happy to see a series where you cover a few games or just one at a time. I loved seeing you mess around with weird peripherals and stuff, but I really miss the deep dives into just a few games in particular. Hope to see more!
Just from the intro I’m loving the new series already . That cut off of the music with the delisted word . I laughed
Just want to say that this was a damn good video! Aside from the actual content/topic (which I do find interesting), you're pacing, comic timing and all-around delivery is excellent. It elevates the subject, making me care more about it. Love the length too, as I find that videos surpassing 20 minutes tends to drag.
The idea of covering "lost" media, even (or should I say 'especially'?) unpopular ones, is something that intrigues me immensely. I'm looking forward to the continuation of this series! :)
Gotta love how Deric is happy doing those videos.
Keep up the good work.
Best ending line “when games preservation is outlawed, only outlaws will preserve games.” Like Tarintino.
Haha 8:25 was amazing to experience. But it did convey the point very well! Excited to see what else this series can bring forth :)
Jett Rocket is a fantastic WiiWare exclusive that sadly never left the console. There's also a sequel on 3DS. It's a very fun 3D platformer/puzzler from the creators of The Touryst, so you know it's fun and high quality. Highly recommend checking it out.
A pretty neat coincidence on uploading this as I just replayed Blaster Master on the NES recently (via NSO) and actually beat it for the first time (as a kid I never got super far in the game when playing it at my cousin's, fact the fourth stage was where it was is probably the biggest thing that screwed me up back then as I admit I only got through the game now thanks to online guides). I never played Overdrive, but I feel it's safe to say from this video Zero is the better remake/reboot since it keeps the spirit of the original intact while making much needed improvements to the controls and ability to navigate.
I love that Zero mixes both stories of the US version AND the Japanese version of Blaster Master
But with that said... WHICH MUSIC IS WORSE!?
Overdrive or RE Dualshock edition!?
Man I can smell another great series in the making from you guys
GREAT VID!!! this series is gonna be so awesome! :D
I always thought that bad games needed preservation too. Just because they’re bad doesn’t mean they don’t have their merits. Even the worst games have some redeeming qualities no matter how superficial they may be in the grand scheme of things. As far as preservation goes, I think it should be everything or nothing. Preserve the classics, definitely, but also preserve the games that didn’t get that much love.
Great video and an excellent start to the series! I’m excited to see what’s next!
Also, love that line about outlaws in the end!
After Burner Climax and Outrun Online Arcade on XBLA are 2 great lost digital games!
Super excited for this series Derek (& Grace)! I can’t wait to learn about fascinating oddities I’ve never heard of!
Uncle Derek: "and did you honestly expect Uncle Derek to launch a new series by talking about a good game?"
Also uncle Derek: 4:05
Me: Kinda?
stoked youre doin this, wiiware and the PSP specifically had a ton of games that have just kinda been lost to the void and its incredibly cool youre giving this some exposure!!
Oh man hearing the words "classic game room" just gave me flashbacks of watching those videos all the time like 10 years ago.
12:56 P.T. Trailer. I didn't have a PS4 at the time, so I couldn't download it. If I want to play it, I gotta buy a whole system with it already on it. Now compare and contrast that to Christmas NiGHTS, another demo, which was on disc. I was suppose to get it in my issue of Ultra Game Players, but it wasn't there (did the mailman steal it?) So flash-forward about 20 years later, I finally bought it off E-bay. This is why I support a physical future, you can always get these games when you are ready.
(EDIT) Ha, I stopped the video to comment; I see you already acknowledged it, after I started the video up again.
I love this idea for a series! Awesome work.
I love everything about this series concept. I really hope you can make more. Hearing about Blaster Master Overdrive was fascinsting.
Great series idea, and I love the intro! Can't wait for more Uncle Derek, as usual.
Rebirth trilogy. That would be a good video.
nice work dude. I like what the Delisted idea has going for it.
Your closing line was also so good I hope you say it in every episode to help burn it into people's heads. "When game preservation is outlawed, only outlaws will preserve games.".
Though I think it'd be a bit better if it was worded in more of a good way like preserving it for us. Some things are lost to time and people old collection is used to help a anniversary collection or reboot.
I don't think the music is "wrong" lol they just wanted to mix it up a little bit. I've been listening to prog since I was 15, the Overdrive OST actually sounds pretty natural to me tbh.
"Bad games need preservation too" is why I was so happy to see plumbers Don't Wear ties getting a switch port. It used to be playable entirely on CZcams but was taken down after annotations were shut off
Nice video! Love the new series, very important subject, looking forward to seeing more!
When you discuss the *P.T.* demo on PS4, can you also talk about *The Hallway* for PS Vita?
It's a remake of P.T. exclusively for the Vita called *The Hallway* .
I've played it, and it's pretty creepy.
Love the idea for this series and can’t wait to see where you guys take it
"If there's a remake with worse music please let me know"
Resident Evil: Director's Cut. Need I say more?
True I know there's the Black Label Edition, which was the first print run copies that had the OG RE Music in the Director's Cut, which is awesome and I find it criminal Capcom never ported that version due to it being the best and more complete version of OG RE1.
@@bobafett4265 I believe it was the Director's Cut with the original music on the Playstation Classic, but, y'know, the Playstation Classic sucked so much ass it was a donkey slaughterhouse, so yeah, your point still stands.
Sir, how DARE you imply that that basement theme is anything less than perfection.
not a remake tho
This is a super important topic, thank you for having a part in helping with the preservation of games- good and bad.
You guys with your silly videos always put me in a good mood, thanks. :D
Hot dang, I was just thinking a little while ago how Blaster Master would be a good hole for you to fall down and go "LOOK AT ALL THIS WILD SHIT", and lo and behold here it is, and launching a new series at that. Fantastic!
Glad to see this game getting some attention even if there isn't any way to purchase it currently (and may not be again). I have fond memories of playing it when it was first released, and I went back to play it again last year, and I still think it's a solid game. I agree that it could use some polish. The graphics are so bare bones and the lack of classic controller support feels like a huge oversight, but the level design and mechanics feel good. I went on quite the quest of hunting for third party controllers that would work well for this game, and the best solution I found was actually a grip for the Wiimote, but now I have a few different obscure Wii controllers, which is fun. I really don't think the music in this is as bad as you say, but otherwise, I think you make good points.
This was such a fun video Derek! Great stuff keep it up dude :)
I’m bummed I didn’t get Alien Crush Returns before WiiWare shut down. The switch really needs to port a bunch of these titles. Love the new series!
Fantastic idea for a series Derek and Grace! Very excited for more.
They need preservation because otherwise we wouldn't know what was bad for the standards of time.
More videos with Derek breaking down video game music (bad or good) like he did here, please. The dude obviously knows what he's taking about and conveys the concepts effectively. Best part of the video!
