  • The Bomberman franchise is really underrated, but Bomberman 64 was a turning point in the series. I want to show you the impact that it had on the franchise, and how important it was at the time.
    So this is my 1 year anniversary video. I can't believe I've been at it for an entire year, and I hope to keep going on for more and more!
    Special shout out to my buds Furst and Zoiney for lines and general help with getting this out there. Couldn't have done it without them and the several people that help me on a day to day basis.
    Hope y'all enjoy!

      I was hoping the new bomberman was going to be in the 3d exploration format instead of the grid system

    "Beaten casually in an hour"?? It took me over 2 years to beat the campaign as a kid, and even that it remained my favourite game for far longer because of its multiplayer :S

  • @misterknite
    @misterknite Před 9 lety +3

    64 and Hero were two of my favourite games on that console. I also remember using the multitap at a friends house for possibly my first 4 player simultaneous gaming experience. Thanks for making one of your great videos on a subject near and dear to me!

    Bomberman is one of the greatest series of video games. He's had some ups and downs, but it's been a fun ride. I have ONLY played Bomberman Hero, and ohhhh THAT SOUNDTRACK! I will have to play Bomberman 64....I know I rented it once but the game didn't work when I was a kid. But man, this was a good in-depth look at the game. None of this 'omg u gotta collect 120 cards and fight a different boss woahhhh how crazyyy' type thing; a real look at how this game changed the series. Thank you for brining that to a light. I find it interesting that games like Bomberman Jetters use a 3D world for Single player, but the multiplayer is classical style, or how Bomberman was reduced to a series of weird minigames in Bomberman Land toward the end of his lifespan as a character. (RIP...:( )
    The Bomberman game I look back on fondly but haven't played in years, other than Hero, is Bomberman World. Slow paced, the graphics were weird, but man, I played the shit out of that game.
    Great video, man, and congrats on 1 year!

    @thegospelofgrant2564 Před 9 lety +2

    I loved this game as a kid! It took me 6 months to realize you could charge and stack bombs to get up platforms tho, and I was stuck on that water mill town level for months until that point. Fantastic game tho. Still one of my favorites on the n64!

  • @OmegaJester09
    @OmegaJester09 Před 8 lety +16

    This was always my favorite Bomberman game.... no other game in the series lived up to it for me... then again I didnt even know there was a second one.... *looks it up.... oh... it never got a PAL release NEVER MIND. rip Bomberman

      Kyoko Oh yea? I'll have to keep an eye out for it then.
      Nice pic btw, Kyouko is the best.

    • @Kyoko_
      @Kyoko_ Před 8 lety

      +OmegaJester09 It's really challenging, and 100% completing it is no walk in the park. The story, character design, and overall world design is lacking compared to Bomberman 64, but this is made up with some solid single player platforming. Bomberman can finally jump in this game. Overall, I wouldn't say Hero is better than 64 or vice versa, as they both bring a lot to the table, while also being quite different from each other. Oh, and both of their soundtracks are amazing, but are nothing alike.
      Kyouko is my spirit animal.

    • @OmegaJester09

    @kyonvibrittania Před 9 lety

    oh man, Bomberman 64 the Second Attack... Been so long since I played it, but it was always a childhood favourite of mine. Instant sub for the Bomerman franchise, a classic series overlooked on CZcams videos, and yours was awesome! Keep it up!

  • @sleepydumbdude
    @sleepydumbdude Před 4 lety +1

    Had no idea this was a platformer. I played a SNES version and seen my friends playing the multiplayer and figured that is all it was. Have to pick this up.

  • @IndieLambda
    @IndieLambda Před 6 lety +2

    I played Bomberma, Hero and 64 so much in my youth.
    Personally, I think that in the fully 3D style, the spheric explosions works better. I wish they made an other full 3D game.

    I wish I've never gotten to sell this game when I was a kid.
    Hell, I didn't get the chance to fight the final boss of the game.
    I'm just glad a game reviewer gets the idea of how great this game is!

  • @cracka276
    @cracka276 Před 7 lety

    You should make a video on Bomberman Hero. You were right about it being one of the N64's best, but it's so obscure I feel like I'm the only one who played it back in the day. Plus it's legitimately one of the most bizarre, surreal and as a result, memorable games I've ever played.

  • @womp6338
    @womp6338 Před 6 lety

You're doing a great job, and your videos are some high quality stuff! Keep it up! :D

    Bomberman is in my top 5 favorite franchises of all time, and is criminally underrated and under utilized by it's current owner *Konami...yay....*. I remember playing my first Bomberman on the Snes, and had a blast with my family. When Bomberman 64 came out, I lost count of how many hours me and my siblings dumped into that game.
    It's a stupidly simple concept but is stupid amounts of fun...and I feel ruined friendships long before Mario Party.

    Bomberman 64 is one of my favorite 64 games and probably up there on my list of all time faves. So good. I wasn't nearly as enamored with 64 2 though. I disliked that it went back to cross bombs and had no interest in the Pokemon ripoffs shoehorned in. I mean, it was good... but it was more of a one and done for me.
    Anyway, great video. Keep it up!

  • @Onyominoma
    @Onyominoma Před 9 lety

    Wow, i can see why i never finished this game. The bomb stacking and platforming is so important for getting all of the cards and i never realized that you could do it that way. I gotta replay this soon. Also second attack is really expensive, I've been wanting to get it too, I've only played it on emulator and its just not the same. Muh retro gaymen feel

    Since I never grew up on the N64, I never got to play 64, Hero or Second Attack besides a single Mutliplayer game with a friend. I think when it comes to the impact Generations was the game that really hooked me into the series. It was long, had cool puzzles, the charaboms despite being pokemon knock-offs were useful, and the multiplayer was charming. I never played Jetters but I heard it's not as good. Oh yeah, Act Zero is renowned for being the Worst Game of 2006, just to clarify that:
    IT TOOK THE TITLE FROM SONIC 06

    Too many good memories from the multiplayer. Does anyone own the rights to Bomberman now that Hudson is shut down? I wouldn't think an IP like that would go unwanted. Also side note do you remember the commercial for this game? I remember it being a parody song from the old Spider Man cartoon. I never watch the cartoon as a kid so when ever i hear it these days I always think of this game.
