    Bio force ape is one of the graphically most impressive and attention to detail sprite animations I've ever seen on the NES

    I have played all nes games (749).....I am proud.....I still play nes games today.

    14:36 It's like Star Fox on the NES, you have to give them props for trying!

    • @miamimagicians
      @miamimagicians Před 2 lety

      Not even close but I see what you're saying. The most graphically amazing thing on the NES is Mario three

    • @miamimagicians
      @miamimagicians Před 2 lety

      Return of the joker is great, but I think that game came out like a 1992 while Mario three came out in 1989!

    FYI, Bashi Bazook was released in Japan as "Bio Senshi Dan: Increaser to no Tatakai," or "Bio Warrior Dan: The Fight Against the Increaser." Very weird that they changed the name to Bashi Bazook for the proposed localized version!

    Alot of these games had really nice graphics

  • @agentj007gaming9
    @agentj007gaming9 Před 8 lety +3

    The Buzz and Waldog platformer looks like it would have been a blast to play. Small graphical details such as swaying grass and the twirling sunflower, as well as the overall Super Mario Bros. style really stand out. I'd like to give it a go, myself.

    • @thebiohazardgamergamingand4349
      @thebiohazardgamergamingand4349 Před 7 lety

      Agent J007 Gaming I get the reason why Buzz and Waldog was cancelled. Overall all of the graphics are taken from Super Mario World on the NES/SNES. And I see, That's a Baby Yoshi at the beginning

  • @nameofthegame9664

    Bio force ape looked like a solid game! Sonic looks slow compared to that

    the music from Dino Hockey is music ripped from the melee scenes of Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves on the NES

    Real shame that some of these games never saw the light of day... Officially that is.

  • @LifeOnWelfareIsGreat
    @LifeOnWelfareIsGreat Před 7 lety +2

    Surprised that Bio Force Ape never came out. I remember it being talked about in an issue of Nintendo Power even. Same with Block Out.
    Never did find out the real reason why that Drac's Night Out was cancelled. If it were because of the shoes, couldn't they have just named them something else?

  • @susanfit47
    @susanfit47 Před 2 lety

    A total of 968 NES titles were left unreleased for unknown reasons.

  • @susanfit47
    @susanfit47 Před 3 lety

      @Matt Owens We were a long time ago, but these games ended going unreleased. Addams Family Values was released for the SNES in early 1995, and was based on the 1993 movie sequel of the same name from Paramount Pictures. Vanilla Ice later became Rap Quest, which meant probably unreleased. The Price is Right was meant for a North American release for the NES in May 1988. If all those of 968 unreleased licensed NES games were released and were to come out, those games that could have been.

    23:37 It took a while, but it was released as Earthbound Beginnings on the Wii U Virtual Console, at least in the states. I guess getting a game 26 years later doesn't really count, though.

    List of Games in this video that should've been released:
    Arcadia 4
    Bashi Bazook: Morphoid Masher
    Bio Force Ape
    Blockout
    Crackout
    DreamWorld Pogie (Why Not?)
    EarthBound (Who wouldn't want to save it?)
    Exerion 2
    Final Fantasy 2 (Of Course!)
    Hit The Ice!
    Unsurprisingly, we had 2 keep 15 aforementioned games in the depths of hell!
    These 10 however are worth it.

    While it is true that Final Fantasy II on the NES never got released in the US, but we did eventually get it for the PS1 as Final Fantasy Origins, then Final Fantasy I & II Dawn of Souls on the GBA and the Final Fantasy 20th Anniversary Edition of Final Fantasy II on the PSP.
