  • So, umm, remember that mode in Super Smash Bros Brawl for the Nintendo Wii that allowed you to play a variety of classic Nintendo games? No? Well that's okay because I remember it so you don't have to! Spoilers, it's buns!

    I was scared of playing the master pieces as a kid. I was told that the timer is all the time you get to play the games, ever. I avoided the masterpieces since I didn't want to waste my one chance to play the games. It wasn't until this video that I learned that they were replayable...

    I have a very specific memory about Masterpieces. One day I just started playing the Kirby’s Adventure masterpiece over and over and trying to get as far as I could before it timed me out. I also ate a ton of Wild Grape Pop Tarts, which I don’t even like that much? It’s a strangely vivid, hyper-nostalgic memory, yet I wouldn’t say that it had much influence on me. I did eventually play Kirby’s Epic Yarn and I enjoyed it, but Brawl’s core gameplay was more responsible for that; haven’t played a Kirby game since.

    The reason you think “you can’t bake your cake and eat it too” is a dumb saying is because that’s not the saying. It’s “you can’t HAVE it and eat it too.” Cuz once you eat it you don’t have it anymore, it’s gone because you ate it. Changing eat to bake makes it meaningless

  • @xxProjectJxx

    Tbh, I think all this mode was trying to do was contextualize the early history of these characters. Show younger players what the older games looked, sounded and played like, but only in snippets, just long enough to give that context. They weren't trying to do real demos. I think the Masterpieces mode was fine. It was more of a mini-museum than a sample

      I would agree to some extent, at the end of the day, it was mostly to boost sales for the virtual console. That's why Earthbound wasn't included in the western release, as we never got it until the Wii U

    What they should have done to make it actually GOOD EFFORT was allow you to beat ONE LEVEL of each...yes, that's a PROPER DEMO! One level of Mario, reach the first dungeon in the overworld of Zelda 1 and 2 (because the dungeon would be too much for a demo), complete one race in F-Zero, etc. I know it's hard to code in, but that is why they should have put more time and thinking, and understand how good demoes work. This gives players enough time to enjoy the games without feeling cheated of time! They can take their time to enjoy, and they can finish something to feel accomplished more!

    I feel like Masterpieces is good idea with flawed execution. It's blatant advertising but if it was implied in a less limiting way, we could've had a memorable distraction. Part of me actually wanted them to return for Ultimate, hoping that perhaps it could be the best its ever been.
    I personally feel like them being the way they aren't wasn't Sakurai's call as his clearly has a love for retro games. Who knows what we could've gotten if Nintendo didn't try to make these VC ads. Anyways, this video was a good watch, keep it up man.

  • @ShadowHawk180
    @ShadowHawk180 Před 8 hodinami +1

    I think there was some kind of shift in the company mindset that occurred between Animal Crossing and the Wii Era. I remember Reggie had to fight INSANELY hard to get them to include Wii Sports with the Wii because they more or less “didn’t want to have developers work hard on a game and then disrespect those developers by giving away their game for free.”
    Of course, the masterpieces are the way they are so you feel like you have to actually buy them on the virtual console, but that “no games for free” mindset probably played a role too.
    If I’m remembering it right, Retro also wanted to include Super Metroid in with Prime as a completion bonus, but Nintendo axed it.

    It is indeed lame, because they're only weak Wii or Wii U Virtual Console versions under mixed saved files/moments and very limited gameplay.

    I dont rly have strong memories attached to the materpieces although i know ive played them. I feel like there's better ways of documenting a character's original essence or w/e because these dont rly seem to be vertical slices, theyre just throwing the player at the beginning and kicking them out 5 steps past the beginning
    Great video though! I enjoy the humor, editing and information. I'll look into your earlier videos

  • @bandannadoo

    I almost wonder if Masterpieces could come back in a sort of Nintendo World Championships-style mode that adds a more competitive aspect and recontextualises the games a bit. The whole 'see how far you can get aspect' could be actually gamified and you'd still get a decent view into what each game is like. Even something like Earthbound could put you in the middle of a decently hard boss and challenge you to beat it within the time limit to give you a solid grasp on the battle mechanics. The main takeaway would be that even if these games are far older and shorter than your average game nowadays, there's still a lot of fun to be had with them if you take the chance to play them inside and out.

      Mario 64 sadly was never included :( BUT I realllly wish it was because I would assume they'd drop you off inside the castle to run around for a few mins (prob 3-4 at most) which actually wouldn't be quite enough time to beat the game with boundary breaking, but still would be fun regardless

    Brawl was my introduction to SSB, and videos like these really highlight how underrated Brawl is nowadays. Still sucks that ''Masterpieces'' has just demos instead of the full games though. I recently watched a video in which someone did something complicated with Brawl's code and found that of all these older games within Brawl, are actually fully playable, but that Nintendo put an artificial time limit on them.

    40:51 I knew the year that Kirby's Dreamland 3 came out because I actually played it back then when it was brand new. What I find to be a much bigger surprise is that Kirby's Adventure came out for the NES 2 years into the SNES being out internationally and three years into its original Japanese console version the Super famicom. I mean only a year after Kirby's Adventure came out was the Japanese release of the PS1 and the Sega Saturn.
    It seemed back then Kirby had a knack to come out for consoles late in their lifespan or even consoles of the current generations predecessors. I mean even Kirby 64 in the crystal shards came out in 2000 and by then the Sega Dreamcast was in America for a year and the Gamecube was only coming out a year after Kirby 64.

  • @GameAW1
    @GameAW1 Před dnem

    I don't see Masterpieces as trying to do the same thing as trophies did, but rather I see them as supplementing the trophies. Sakurai has in his channel mentioned how in his UIs (as of Meteos, I believe) he tries to make the icon for the games bigger or smaller based on the importance of the mode in question to the game. With this context in mind, you will find that Smash 4 has Trophies noticeably bigger an icon than Masterpieces does. This implies you're supposed to check the trophies first and get the context for the game or characters or whatnot that you want. Then once you do, maybe you're curious what their games are about, so you back out of trophies and see the masterpieces, going in to play a demo with that context in mind to understand the character and by extension their game better.
    Of course that came with its fair share of problems but honestly I think it was fine for what it was. Yeah it was an advertisement of course, I knew that going in even back in the Brawl days, but that doesn't mean that's all it can and ever will be.
