S.L.A.I.?
Fox Hunt looks like Capcom's answer to "Plumbers don't wear ties"
Plumbers Don't Wear Ties. The question no one asked, but Capcom answered it anyway.
Fox Hunt's protagonist is just Gex if he was human, and that is terrifying.
Fun fact, the original Saturn version of Super Adventure Rockman (product ID T-1225G) cannot be completed due to a cutscene bug and had to be recalled.
whats the bug in question
@@alex_-yz9to If I remember correctly, one cutscene would just not load properly, and it is impossible to skip cutscenes in the game.
@@chazmaru9583 Isn't that the bug that's dodged by taking the obscure path that involves never encountering Quickman and avoiding the cutscene, or am I remembering a path that avoids a different problem?
@@neoqwerty Ah, possibly! I don’t recall ever hearing of a workaround but I frankly had never revisited the topic since the recall, which I am unfortunately old enough to have known in real time. I guess this potential workaround would not be found until much later.
Fox Hunt's lead is the current voice of Johnny Cage, someone needs to interview him about this game.
I remember Andrew Bowen from Mad TV.
Wow, so he works on simply the worst game projects
A random fact but the lead actor in Fox Hunt would still work in video games, most prominently as the voice of Johnny Cage in MKX and MK11
By the time of Megaman Legends, humans have gone extinct and the characters you meet are synthetic people called carbons, but we do see actual dogs and cats. You can even get the dark armor by acting like a Jojo villain and kicking the dogs and you can have your home overrun by adopted cats.
Nothing indicates they are anything but regular cats and dogs, so it seems our furry companions actually outlasted humanity in Megaman's universe.
I’m pretty sure you get the dark armor by destroying the soda machines.
@@ssantos88 It's both. Kicking dogs and vandalizing public property (soda machines and mailboxes) is *_EVIIIIL_* after all.
@@ssantos88 There are 4 ways I know of to get it. Kicking dogs or destroying vending machines will gradually darken your armor, while shooting down the news ship when the city is under attack or stealing the briefcase of money in the optional police side quest will instantly get you the full on dark armor.
Seems the vending machine is the "canon" one though as dark armor Volnutt is playable in Megaman X Dive, with his character select animation being him kicking a vending machine to get free stuff out of it lol
@@zeroattentiongaming820 The vending is canon but so is the briefcase. I just went to see dark armor MegaMan in Mega Man X Dive and it is hilarious. His art is him in the dark armor holding the briefcase and wearing sunglasses. His animation is him walking on the vending machine and kicking it until it breaks and the briefcase comes out of the machine. He runs of with the case and then puts on his sunglasses.
well you can't kick innocent animals in the US versions, you CAN however kick the can into the bakery to make money and get dark armor.
I like Super Adventure Rockman solely for the fact that Quick Man is practically a anti-hero in it. You may have guessed that I like that based on my username.
Super Adventure Rockman's game over sequence bodied me. Matt's bewildered laughter, the dramatic Darkseed 2 style showcase of how your failure doomed all of Earth, the matter of fact game over screen itself, the abrupt cut to the opening logo and the best part, how Bubble Man of all Robot Masters was the one to make this happen with an instadeath projectile that Rock survived anyway
Roll spilled the orange Crush and died a short time later because of all this lmfao, poor thing
Translations:
6:44: Turn Around/Don't Turn around
7:11: A Month Ago
8:32: Worry/Don't Worry (About Roll)
11:35: Go Right/Go left (matt was right bout that one)
12:23: "Saving game to Memorycard"
Fun fact: the opening theme of Super Adventure RockMan is Eletrical Commication and its the same music opening used in the Japanese version Opening of Megaman 8 aka Rockman 8.
Wow, and when I thought that Under the Skin was an underrated and kind obscure Capcom game on PS2, now I heard even more obscure games that I have never, ever heard of.
Have to admit the Megaman one was hilarious, lol!.
Anyway thanks Matt!, it was a fun to watch video.
I would say that another forgotten Capcom game that would great to take a look at would be Nightmare Before Christmas: Oogies’s Revenge. It’s actually a really fun Devil May Cry style game that doesn’t talked as much as it should.
Hadn't even heard about it until you mentioned it. Looks fun but seems to sadly be Kinda rare here in Europe so goes for quite a lot.
I'm glad Super Adventure Rockman exists at least. The Archie comic arc they based on it is good stuff.
Honestly shocked to learn that Cave have worked in game genres other than 'bullet hell shoot-em-ups starring scantily dressed women.'
There's one thing you missed out about Super Adventure Rockman. Beat the bird is in this game, so making the story take place between MM 2 and 3 makes this invalid. Many fans intepretated it to take place after Mega Man 5, since Beat was a gift made by Dr. Cossack for the Blue Bomber after redeeming himself back in MM4.
theres also enemies from megaman 5 and 6 roaming the ruins for some reason
I completely forgot Fox Hunt existed, if only because I was not aware of its existence until Game Informer did an episode of their Replay series on this roughly 10-11 years ago! Still as cheesy good as I remember.....
The Heavy Metal game looks like about 20 minutes of fun.
AWE man, I want more of the Mega man. That was so funny as hell.
Another one odd one was Street Fighter II MOVIE for the Playstation, where you play as the monitor cyborg watching FMV sequences from the movie, taking snapshots of the character's moves then after all that jazz, fighting Ryu in the end.
For clarification, this is referencing the ANIME movie, not the JCVD one.
I know YOU know that, but there might be people reading this that don't.
Desk did a video on it.
According to a translation of the cutscenes via subtitles, Megaman and the other bots arent 100% imune woth the treatement! Its temporsry and it lasts only 7 days... 3 of which are burnt out during the passage of time throughout the story.
but the weird part is that it never factors into anything because it only expires if you press "GIVE UP" or if you die to needle man and snakeman... whoch arr the midbosses of disc 2
Heavy Metal Geomatrix looks like if you combine both Spawn and Power stone,and turn it into a bad fighting game. No wonder this game is on the obscure list of Capcom’s forgotten shelves.
@flophouse plays, you need to check out the band Protomen, they legit made a 2 disc rock opera about the origin of megaman and protoman. it's a dystopian tale in which doctor wiley has enslaved humanity and megaman is like an antihero obsessed with vengance. and they made a 20 min long music video of the last track.
@Oren Black its awesome, checkout their album "The Cover-up" also.They cover a lot of really good songs by bands like Iron Maiden, Styx, Queen, etc etc. you can find it on youtube.
You can use Google Lens to translate this with your phone. The first choice in Mega Man was "TURN AROUND" or "DON"T TURN AROUND", the second was "WORRY" or "DON'T WORRY" and the third was "GO RIGHT" or "GO LEFT"
whats funny is that you can beat the game by always picking the first choice in the list, im not kidding!
@@alex_-yz9to I'd be curious to see what happens if you pick "Don't turn around". Instant game over? Mega Man doesn't care, the end?
@@beebomcgroober9316 if you pick dont turn arround you go on a differrnt path where you are attacked by differrnt enemies... Disc one is actually the most diverse with choices!
Theres entire sections, encounters and scenes in disc one that you will never get to see if you actually go the right way... it always ends in a fight between Megaman, Quickman and Shadowman but HOW you get there actually changes!
And then Disc 2 likes to damage megaman for making bad choices and Disc 3 has almost 0 choices.
Actually no i thought it was a different choice, dont turn arround in the intro just means you skip the plot dump
I swear, one time that Matt shouts "Let's go!!" he needs to morph it into Max's intro just to further elevate the moment in the video XD
Ah, sweet. Love these little deep dives into stuff like this. So many obscure little pieces of wonderful nonsense back when games were basically just startin' to figure themselves out.
You make fun of Roll, but little did you know that she was the savior of mankind.
Also I used to bust people's asses with her in MVC2. Just so people could walk away knowing they got beat by Roll.
She is also a boss botch in TvC
FOXHUNT FUN FACT: Andrew Bowen would go on to be the voice of Johnny Cage in MKX, MK11 and WWE Immortals
I actually saw a Let's Play on SomethingAwful years ago of Super Adventure Rockman. It's a very unique game but hard to play unless you know Japanese or have a translated script available.
There is actually a hidden fight late in the game against a single Met and when it loses it gets carted off on a stretcher by two nurse Mets.
I still have "Fox Hunt." The furthest that I could ever make it would either be to the skydiving section or the snowboarding section.
I swear the main character of that Fox Hunt game is Johnny Cage's VA from MK11
He is.
As a Ghost fan I appreciate the inclusion of Square Hammer 🔨 👻
Yessss i immediately tuned back in once I heard it
Glad I'm not the only one to notice.
Same! It completely took me by surprise!
I was like "wait a minute, that song was released in 2016, this game didn't release after 2016" until i realized it was edited in and that i'm dumb as hell.
I just saw them in early September at Blue Ridge Rock Fest. They had to do a shortened set because it was a festival but they were amazing live. Loved them ever since I first heard stuff off of Opus Eponymous when it was about to be released on Metal Blade.
Some fun facts about Super Adventure Rockman (That I found on the internet):
Keiji Inafune claimed that Super Adventure Rockman was developed during a time when Capcom was attempting to branch out the series by "selling [it] to the lowest bidder". Although he had little involvement in the game, he was assigned to finish it after the project leader suddenly quit towards its completion.
It was seemingly disowned by Keiji Inafune. Inafune exclaimed, "The ultimate unspoken rule about making a game that is geared towards children is that you simply cannot kill anyone, but here you have military helicopters falling out of the sky and people dying in droves. ... Then as if that wasn't bad enough, Roll dies... and to top it all off, the whole world is destroyed! I was like, 'Did they really need to go that far?!'"
In the story, Doctor Wily, now working together with Doctor Light, went to investigate the ruins because the electromagnetic field started increasing, this being a good chance to clear his name. Wily uncovered an ancient alien super computer inside the temple, Ra Moon, which revived his various Robot Masters from Rockman 2 and Rockman 3 by analyzing the information about them in Dr. Wily's laptop. Wily thought it would be a great chance to conquer the world.
One of Mega Man 3 bosses, Shadow Man, who in his game of origin was originally an unidentified alien robot, is in the comics revealed to be a creation of Ra Moon who served as its escort when it traveled to Earth.
If you get a standard Game Over Roll does die, and if you lose to the final boss, everyone (even Wily) dies and Ra Moon kills all life on Earth, both organic and synthetic.
By the end, all of the Robot Masters (including Quick Man and Gemini Man, who got poignant death scenes, and excluding Shadow Man, who was destroyed beyond repair) get brought back.
The game came out after 8, but the lack of any appearance by Auto or Bass, suggests this takes before that, likely between 5 and 6, since Beat is present.
The game is also notable for being one of the very few times that Dr. Wily isn't the final boss. In addition, this is probably the only classic Mega Man game where Dr. Wily appears, yet is never fought at all.
If you can’t understand Japanese, you’ll generally be fine choosing the top option all of the time. You won’t see a lot of the more humorous scenes, but you also won’t die as often either. Once you have save files where you want them, go back and choose the second option everywhere and see where they take you. Warning: a lot of them spell “Game Over” so make sure you save.
Translations of the game's cutscene portions are also available online
Here's another Capcom game that nobody played: Pnickles, like the earliest version of Puzzle Fighter.
Grab your bags of zenny.
Please dont say breath of fire is obscure, its wonderful, 4 is one of my favourites.
Breath of Fire is only 'obscure' to people who grew up after the PS1 and N64 came into the forefront of console gaming. They were a relatively big name in JRPGs before that!
Konami has rereleased its lesser Castlevania and TMNT games. It's time for Capcom to stop burying Mega Man's weirder history. Rerelease RockBoard, Super Adventure Rockman, and Rockman Strategy, you cowards!
The snowboarding character designs are actually pretty sick.
I always thought Gregory Horror Show & Under the Skin are the most obscure capcom games but those are more obscure.
Gregory Horror Show has gotten more fans since Joel streamed it at least.
You clearly didn't watch MadTV in the 90s.
Also that "Foxhunt" guy has been the voice of Johnny Cage since MKX.
I like to think that there is an extra scene after the part when megaman is looking down at Roll in the capsule, the Doc says to him "you better not pull an Shinji when I leave to make coffee" then gives him the old "i got my eyes on you" hand motions as he leaves XD
28:48 The St Anger references are everything, Matt. 🤘🏽💕 Love that they're a recurring thing like Limp Bizkit.
Roll in a coma: She dreams in digital, because it's better than nothing!
spawn in an arcade with like 8 machines connected was so much fun
I played Super Adventure Rockman as a kid back in the day(the rental store had plenty of Japanese games so I got to play all kinds of obscure games),obviously not understanding a thing.
I'm still suggesting Chiki Chiki Boys / Mega Twins as one of the most obscure Capcom games ever.
That 90s Capcom boot jingle... right in the nostalgia. Yas.
Is it bad that I instantly recognized the actor from Foxhunt(Andrew Bowen from Mad TV and current VA in a lot of games)? Its always funny seeing actors early gigs in cheesy FMV games.
I was wondering where I recognized him from. He's so handsome I remember having such a crush Lord.
35:10 Oh hey look, it's Claire.
Matt, That Cutsman impression was 🔥
Before I even watch the video I see Heavy Metal Geomatrix. I know that Simon Bisley artwork anywhere... So are you sure that nobody has ever played these? Just kidding, I have loved watching your videos ever since those Two Best Sisters Plays parodies came out from Two Snacks. Keep up the good work!
No one ever brings up Capcom's Under The Skin, a great ps2 game.
15:40 planet Earth, one week after Roll stops doing everyone´s chores.
Megaman pulled a Links Crossbow training before Links Crossbow training
Without watching the video and only seeing the thumbnail I can tell you I remember Foxhunt. I rented it multiple times and never finished it. The concept of using real life filmed segments to make a video game enthralled me as a child. But it was super hard and the only copy in my town for rent was pretty banged up so sometimes it just wouldn’t work.
6:16 BEAT! I haven't played a Megaman game in some 10+ years but I sure as hell remember Beat! For shame upon you Matt, for shame!
I just screamed “FOX HUNT”!!!!😂😂😂
I love you for including Fox Hunt. It's straight up my favorite FMV game of all time. I have yet to see it this video (streaming first) but I saw Jack Freemont in the thumbnail. Hope you dont trash it too hard!
I kinda do. I get how it has a goofy charm, but FMV games always play so terribly.
1:03:55 It's ironic you should mention Spoony considering he's how I originally heard of Fox Hunt back in the day
Other Capcom games most people don't remember:
Codename: Viper (NES)
Street Fighter II: The Animated Movie the Game (PlayStation)
Zack & Wiki: Quest for Barbaros' Treasure (Wii)
P.N. 03 (GameCube)
The Little Mermaid (NES)
Mega Man (Sega Game Gear)
Breath of Fire: Dragon Quarter (PS2)
Matt's commentary makes this hilarious Mega Man game even funnier. It feels like Mystery Science Theater.
Heavy Metal Geomatrix looks like something that would've been featured on a Simpsons episode
Capcom has so many classic great games and so many that are just complete flops and nothing worth talking remembering or fonding about its crazy.
Heavy Metal game info:
Do is based/modeled after actress Julie Strain, who was married to Kevin Eastman at the time. She also appears in the animated movie Heavy Metal 2000 and the video game tie-in Heavy Metal Fakk 2
Super adventure Rockman, strikes me as "our anime pilot episode didnt work out! Quick make a videogame to make back some money!"
Smarmy '90s Guy Mugs at Camera: The Game
i love the MIDI metal songs in the background during the Heavy Metal section
The volume on your narration jumps up suddenly after the words "bags of zenny"
Heavy Metal isn’t from the UK, it started as an American translation of a French comic
When Alan hit that gong, I was so done. 🤣
I would love you to be a guest on the Super Beard Bros' channel as y'all would mess me up more than RockMan messing up all those lil guys with hard hats on...
HOW- Just HOW do I know the Super Adventure Rockman theme song?? I have no memory of this game's existence. Is it from all my time on the Winamp radio gaming music channels? It's gotta be, this is too weird
It's reused from Rockman 8.
4:03 Rated 'M' for Mega
The girl that Matt played as in Geomatrix just had Vergil's sword moves.
i definitely remember seeing the character designs for snowboard heaven floating around the internet in the early 2000s, i likely had some interest in it since snowboard kids 2 was one of my obsessions at the time
... I should know better than to drink some water while watching Matt. Managed not to choke or spew water over electronics at that Rock/Pillar Man art. 👍
It's so funny that you made a reference to Spoony in the Fox Hunt segment, because literally the only other person I've ever heard even mention that game is Spoony. Back when he was doing his FMV Hell series, he name-dropped Fox Hunt and showed a little clip of it (it was the stupid "superhero" fight) when summarizing the sordid history of FMV games. He never did an actual video on it, but that was the only time I'd ever heard of it prior to this.
That's right, Fox Hunt is so obscure and bad that a guy who spent years doing video reviews of obscure, bad FMV games didn't bother to do a full video on it. I think that lends credibility to the Capcom USA exec who said it was the worst game ever...
As a diehard Fox Hunt fan let me just say this: the end of the game gets pretty wild. Also, while Matt made a joke about finding this game in the bargin bin it's currently selling for $250-450 on average and is not worth that amount at all. SAVE YOUR MONEY.
If you want to give it a try I STRONGLY suggest using Duckstation as it's currently the only emulator that can play this game from start to finish without any game ending bugs which come up pretty quickly on Disk 2 when you have to ski to the correct lodge to get the disk. If played on a different emulator it will always lead to a game over and the same for when you're playing blackjack with the bad guy of the game (it will instantly skip to Frank killing you in the Showgirls section). Give this game a try, it's pretty out there, and maybe someday I will make my own full length video on how it turned out and what could have been (There was a LOT of cut content, and some of it filmed).
Oh man, Fox Hunt, that sales quote makes sense why the PS1 version is $$$$ online.
I just love Di's posh British accent. It reminds me of Lady Godiva from the 1980s GLOW female wrestling variety show.
The intro song to Super Adventure Rockman is fire
When Whu Happen, Flophouse Files, and Flophouse Plays all make sweet Y Tu Mama Tambien love, we get a video like this
Honorable mentions for you Mr. Matt: Chaos Legion, Glass Rose, Gregory Horror Show - Soul Collector, E.X. Troopers, Under the Skin and Mega Man X - Command Mission.
Kinda surprised you didnt mention Shadow of Rome, i feel its pretty obscure but fun cult classic
Its really not obscure at all. Plus I already played it on the main channel.
Snowboard Heaven looks to me like a mix of Snowboard Kids and Beetle Adventure Racing.
Yeah I had never heard of the snowboarding game ether and you weren’t kidding it was hard to find. Finally found it though
A Castlevania snowboarding game? I'm not mad at the idea.
Part of that intro track to fox hunt almost sounded like the parasite eve theme
Nice selection of music during the Heavy Metal segment!
I rented fox hunt beat it multiple times for the different endings
I've played the Heavy Metal game. I have never heard of the others before today
Ah yes, I’ve found the perfect game to play when cheesing.
But seriously, between Spawn & Heavy Metal, which game came first?
Spawn
The star of Fox Hunt is the current voice of JOHNNY CAGE!!!
heavy metal was my fav in dreamcast, heavy dudes with bare hands are more dangerous and does alot of damage which i always did
Heavy metal geomatrix is a bad ass game. Just needed to add more players that can play. And stages
If possible, please watch the full translation of Super Adventure Rockman! :D
"What am I fighting foooooorrrr!!!!!"
Would you do Heavy Metal F.A.K.K. sometime? I played the demo as a kid, too hard for me. By the way, what is the music during the Geomatrix segment? Since you can't play the actual music
These are so obscure I have literally never heard of them, like usually when you frequent forums and look up niche games you get namedropped these here and there even if you will never play them, but I have never seen these names ever.
I think I remember seeing clips of that Fox Hunt game in an old SpoonyOne Review
I had this Rockman FMV game on my PS1. Man, I had completely forgot about that game.
