    Are there any monster tamer games I missed that you like?

    • @RemKoshmar
      @RemKoshmar Před 3 měsíci

      Have you ever looked into Coromon? It's similar to pokemon, I'll admit, but I think it has just enough of a unique flavour that it would be worth a mention. c:
      I only played the demo, though, as the last time I played it, only the demo was out, but it has since released fully!

      Ni no Kuni. LEVEL-5 made that and Yo-kai Watch. Both games even share a director, Ken Motomura.

      Not so much "monsters" and you don't "tame" them but Medabots is pretty cool, I found out there was a Medabots videogame one day I tried to download a Pokémon Emerald ROM from a p2p browser (which was the style at the time) and got the wrong file instead
      The thing about Medabots that is so sad is how only a very small fraction of the games ever came out to the West to tie-in to its short-lived anime, and most of them aren't even fan-translated :(

      Monster Racers on the DS has you taming monsters and training them in 2D races against other racers monsters or wild monsters as well as competing in tournaments, definitely a Pokémon & Digimon competitor. It doesn't have evolving monsters, but it has a breeding center where you can create monsters with unique abilities, and it has shiny versions, which are actually stronger than the original monsters.
      There's also Moco Moco Friends on 3DS, where you collect Plushkin. The gameplay is quite simple and repetitive, but the cast is funny. There's also the overly cute and girly design of everything that really stands out among the other monster type games.
      I haven't had a chance to play it yet, but I recently picked up Magi-Nation from a local store ( for GBC ).
      I also remember playing this one GBC game called Lil' Monster in which the monsters are represented as gems which will allow you to revive them in a different form or can be used as a deck of attack options in battle. The game itself was pretty weird, basic in design, only 60 monsters, and just odd to describe.
      Speaking GBC and MegaTen... I think the Last Bible series is even closer to the genre than most of the spin-offs, it's first game was released in the West as Revelations: The Demon Slayer... There's also an even more monster tamer like series with Devil Children, I think the 2002 GBA games were released under the title DemiKids?
      There are way more of these types of games region-locked to Japan. GBC, GBA, DS, and PS1 are great places to look for the genre, though. I love mid to late 90s and early 00s crap like this! They were a big part of the era and just everywhere... it's a shame most would be forgotten over time.

    Fossil Fighters ia my all time favorite game. The humor is amazing and exactly my kind of tongue in cheek humor with even the character names being little jokes. And it's really fun with the fossil cleaning and battles, and I appreciate how many vivosaurs there are and how much love and care was clearly put into them. The soundtrack is absolutely amazing and a peak gaming track in my opinion. The story seems simple at first and then widens up and gets more complicated than you would ever expect. I LOVE FOSSIL FIGHTERS

  • @Cuprite1024
    @Cuprite1024 Před 3 měsíci +6

    Telefang's a weird one. You might recognize it as the old bootleg games "Pokémon Diamond and Jade," but they're an actual original pair of GBC games that just never got officially translated into English (They *do* have a fan translation, tho! Currently v155 last I checked). I say it's weird cause, as the name implies, the game focuses around the idea of using a phone to just... *call* the monsters. You don't "tame" them, you just beat them in battle and they may decide to give you their phone number. Lol.
    It's got some gameplay quirks (Calling them to battle takes time depending on how far away you are from their home, for example), but it seems like a genuinely good game and I'm interested in eventually playing it.
    (If nothing else, it has an AMAZING soundtrack)
    It also has a GBA sequel, but from what I can tell, it's not as good. Probably still worth looking at tho, just in case.

    Ykw3's competitive meta is unmatched. It's easy enough to get into if you have the right Yokai and items, and if you have the basics of the combat system down. Sucks the 3DS online is being shut down soon, it's a real treasure.

    Another day in monster collection-land, another night without a Spectrobes mention.
    Anyway, If you like the excavation mechanic of Fossil Fighters but want a little something more + a story not mostly surrounding being a small 10 year old larval human baby going outside to touch grass for the first time, please consider Spectrobes.
    To start, the playable character/s have jobs, which is incredibly rare for the Monster Collection Genre, and also the primary enemy isn’t the wildlife, or people who use the wildlife, it’s planet-eating assimilation parasites that take the forms of that which they last consumed. Fun! Also an entire star system and its people are dead.

    • @Acidonia150reborn
      @Acidonia150reborn Před 3 měsíci

      Shame alot of the planned features for Spectrobes was never used and they changed the art stlye to look more anime than was planed. I guess art by the character desinger of the 80's Mario Cartoon,Captain N ,Ghost Busters anf the 1998 Godzilla Animated series was to cool for the world. They barely promoted the game after all that a TV show was planed but all it got was like a few seconds in the Lillo and Stitch Anime.
      Still one of the very few Space themed monster collectors out there though.

    The interaction mechanics of wobbledogs is remarkably similar to world of zoo which is a game that only exists in full on wii and that alongside kinectimals I spent most of my childhood playing so it satisfies some of the itch that I miss from world of zoo (the steam version is only half tje game and mostly herbivores

    Yo kai watch didnt hit the same as pokemon for me, but it didn't need to bc its it's own special sorta monster collector. And its just... Fun! Even if i don't like the 3rd game here, either. Don't hate it, just think its meh

      Depends on what type of gameplay experience cause not Digimon game plays the same. If you want something that plays closely to Digimon World 1, Digimon World Next Order is the most accessible option if you are looking for that.
      If you want classic turn based JRPG experience, I recommend Digimon Story Cyber Sleuth. Maybe play the sequel, Hacker’s Memory if you end up liking it.
      But if you like visual novels that’s almost like a dark retelling of the first season of the anime, Digimon Survive might be exactly what you’re looking for.
      All of which are available on Steam and Nintendo Switch btw.
