  • Welp, I figured it was about time I return to the classic Powerpuff Girls series once again! Been meaning to come back to this one again and after recently completing my video on the trilogy of Ed Edd n Eddy handheld titles, I figured I'd do something similar for the three Gameboy Color games that were released for the Powerpuff Girls all the way back in the year 2000.
    I know people have wanted me to make a PPG video again, so I figured why not! I think for the sake of keeping the PPG interest alive on my channel, I'm not going to be reviewing every single Powerpuff Girls video game all at once like I intend to with other cartoon franchises. I think it might be better if I spread them out instead, that way people can still expect a PPG video of some sort every few months that way I don't run out of videos to make too quickly haha; I think that's a pretty fair compromise that will make everyone happy. Hope you enjoy the video more than I enjoyed playing these games!

    You know, with the gaming industry being all about remakes and reboots (though, not in every case for all publishers and developers)... why not look at these three games and rebuild them from the ground up?
    With today's technology, who knows what could be done with these and other games starring the Powerpuff Girls?

    Bad Mojo Jojo was the very first videogame I ever owned. Still have it to this day although it wasn't very good. Also have Paint the Townsville Green and Battle Him.
    Also Legend of Zelda Oracle of Ages and Oracle of Seasons for the GBC did the same thing when it came to linking and secrets, but the games were far better than The Powerpuff Girls Trilogy.

    Well, there is one moment I remember from the original Powerpuff Girls where they got beat up by normal humans which was in the episode "Twisted Sister" when Bunny freed all the prisoners, and the PPGs couldn't stop them all because there were too many, and it lead to them being ganged up on. Thinking back to that scene, I feel they could have easily escaped using their laser eyes and flight.

    I've seen this game multiple times and every time I see it, the worse it looks. I always felt like a 2D PPG would play or be designed somewhat similarly to Kirby Game. Heck I could imagine being able to switch to the other girls during stages like in the later Megaman X Games or even Sonic Heroes. I feel a game like that would be awesome but when it comes to this game, well Say La Vi.

    I get that video games need to limit their characters' abilities to make them more challenging, but from what I'm seeing here, it looks poorly done. They could've at least had the villains somehow drain the girls of some of their powers, like that ray gun Mojo and Princess made in that one episode, and just work from there.
    Speaking of Pokémon, which ones do you think the girls would own, and which starter would they pick?

    Perhaps if they did more to distinguish the games, level, and playable characters, then it could have worked. But I can't justify separating what is literally same game into three different versions that are barely distinguished from one another. At least with Pokémon, the gimmick of having two versions was meant to encourage trading and provide a more personalized experience for the player. As with Sonic Heroes, even if all the levels are the same, at least it's all in one game and the difficulty levels for each team is different (Hero- Normal Dark- Hard Rose- Easy Chaotix- Mission-Based) It would have been a simple fix, but in the end, it's clear the games were made as a cash grab like most other licensed games at the time.

But thank god I didn't buy them since I don't have a GBC at the time. I was surprised that nobody considered them as one of the worst video games of all time. Like E.T. the Extra-Terrestial, Superman 64, and even Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub-Zero.

    So between publishers and developers, if a development company makes bad games while the publisher has otherwise good games (or at least a balance) that means that development team lacks talent generally; since Bam! was a publisher and generally published low quality crap, that likely means every team under Bam! was given little time to develop the product and had low incentives (low pay, overworked, stressed out, etc).
    And hoo boy these games look like steaming garbage: the overworld graphics look a bit under par, the character sprites are awful (they're too small, as if they designed a decent sprite in mspaint but had to erase the outside border a few times), the music is nails on chalkboard (trust me, I went to listen to it, it really does match the rest of the game's quality), and I can just feel how awful those controls are from watching your video. All of this wrapped in the foil of a cheap marketing gimmick to make a quick buck.
    I mean, even though there's a solid point to be made about pokemon's versioning being a cheap marketing gimmick (I'd argue it was a method to get it more advertising via the customers, aka kids, wanting their friends to buy other versions to trade and battle), the point of Pokemon is at least, the POKEMON. Unless connecting these games meant new levels or playing together with friends, the ppg games were never gonna have a reason to be split.

    I think you're being a bit harsh in regards to the "cutscenes". I grew up glued to my GBC as a kid and that was pretty much how all games were. I think in regards to that element, you were overly harsh and it paints a picture that you hated these games so much any aspect of them you'll criticise to ensure your point is gotten across, when that isn't necessary. Those "cutscenes" were par for the course. Any animation was pretty limited - look at the introduction in the G1 Pokemon games. It wasn't ANIMATED. it was a handful of frames. So I conclude thinking you didn't grow up playing the Gameboy Color otherwise you wouldn't have pointed out the "cutscenes" as something specific to this PPG trilogy.
