ADD ME NEXT VIDDD PLZ
Harro frash gitz, you make good video
this animation is just amazing
This was a great video!
damn flashgitz, that's the closest you've gotten to hitting anime tropes perfectly on the head. I actually got invested, weebs. lol
wow nick nitro my beloved
Weeberton is better more profound for you newborn weebs
That Crash model looks so uncanny yet accurate to the game, I have no idea who modeled it or had it rigged to look so good. But you gents have done something crazy and I'm curious to see the war between Gamecube, Sega Dreamcast, PS2, and Xbox's beginnings. Not sure what year that'd be though since Dreamcast came out in... 1999. I guess just the big 3 and PC looming further in the back.
This I would like to see personally
I’m pretty sure it was a model from one of the GBA or DS games
it could be a game rip bruh
When we get to PS2 era it will literally body all the competition but Sony did fell from grace near the opening of the PS3 era I am talking mostly about console sales
Definitely looking forward to seeing the Dreamcast make an appearance. Last console I gave a damn about before I joined the master race. =P
It's 2024 now and we are all still waiting for a part two of this. Don't leave us in suspense.
Exactly
It would be awesome to have an Atari vs Nintendo console war
PLEASE make this a series!! This was legit epic. I would watch an whole anime with Japanese console wars lol. The N64 entrance was fucking epic!
Pretty bullshit though, Sony was destroying Nintendo
Yah know this is a prequel episode. The current console war was fought in generation 4 consoles 8 years ago
@@MGrey-qb5xz true but most nowadays the N64 is more talked about. It was objectively better
@@SirVonMakak your friend group is not the whole gamer community
@@MGrey-qb5xz my friends don't like games
Can't believe this gave me chills the voice acting was on point 10/10
The japanese itself is also on point.
Agreed, I got way too invested
Who does the voices?
Probably because they're professionals.
Professional fart noises n shit
Realy? Flashgitz do this?? So cool
When 64 said “Don’t worry big brother. I’ll take it from here…” I got goosebumps. Give us the next chapter Flashgits. You insane geniuses.
I thought I was the only one!
For some reason a part of me feels like the fight between the n64 and ps1 would be that the n64 would put up a good fight between the ps1 and be more powerful then the ps1 but not be able to keep fighting to win against the ps1 because despite having more power they are not able to store enough power to unleash to defeat the ps1 and the ps1 would take a good amount of damage but still win and the n64 would die in the fight and then a certain verison 2 of the playstation would come out to destroy everything...
I am over thinking this and I know it.
@@captintom But I imagine that scene would play out pretty much 100% like you said if and when they make the next chapter. Either way I’m hyped :D
and wait when PS 2 appears
N64 gonna get raped
2:39 Sega's console history after the Genesis/Megadrive in one second.
Not shown: the ludicrous amount of unoptimized and/or poorly-planned peripherals.
As an '80s kid, this is exactly how it happened. Except no Sega Saturn, for some reason.
You know damn well why there was no Sega Saturn there. Segata Sanshiro for life though
80s kid? Bro you're 40 something no?
Yet...
@@Potatotenkopf If he's an 80s kid, it means (if he's using this correctly) that he was born in the mid 70s, so he's like almost 50. For example I'm a 90s kid, early millennial (1 year apart from Gen X), and I'm 37. However he is citing the Console War, so he is using it wrongly. He is a 90s kid, around my age. We were born in the 80s, but were kids in the 90s, that's how the whole ''90s kids'' thing works.
@@TheDorianTube the whole concept of 90s kids and 80s kids is cringeworthy in my view but you guys are free to do as you wish.
The way the Genesis took itself out represents how Sega fallen out in the Console War with it's poor business decisions. The Anime Vibes are also really Epic.
poor dreamcast
Well Sega did have two more game console in the '90's. The Sega Saturn's and the very popular Sega Dreamcast.
@@quincykearney9862 Very Popular Now a Days But At The Time The Dreamcast Was a Failure
@@alface935 That was mostly due to how bad the Sega Saturn did prior, and the fact that the PS2 at the time was the cheapest DVD player on the market. Dreamcast going GD-ROM was a mistake. It was easy to pirate and it didn't have the benefit of playing DVDs when you didn't want to play games on it. It's a shame tho, the Dreamcast had the best games at the time, pound for pound.
@@VinceOmega Yes Yes
The VOICE ACTING is So Damn Good, I got too invested in this lmaooo amazing work
I wish the console wars would come to an end.
If these companies formed an alliance with each other they wouldn't need to compete to see who could make better games. They could all work together on one as a group project.
@@M4A1BestGirl I mean that's called pc
@@M4A1BestGirl thats the worse for the consumers, competence is what makes them keep improving and stops the consoles and games from increasing in prices.
monopolies are bad, for example STEAM dominates PC gaming and developers are not allowed to sell their games cheaper than what STEAM wants and takes a huge part of the earnings,
i asuer you that if steam had real competence everything would be cheaper in PC gaming
@@M4A1BestGirl competition breeds innovation, also the last thing we need is another monopoly. If one company ruled the games industry, prices would skyrocket as nobody would be able to stop them
@@OAlexisSamaO bruh... Honestly, do you really think, companies like Ubisoft, EA, Sega(to name very, very few) want to sell Cheaper? They are in this industry to make money. They kept the 60$ price even though they went completely digital. No more extra spending on CDs, plastic, manufacturing and distributing them. Now it's all digital and still kept the price. When scrutiny was brought around 2008-2012 to not increase prices, DLCs and loot boxes became a thing to make money. With THAT...i donno if it's better to pay 300$ total for a game over 3 years when all it's DLC is out or what would the market have been, had the original 60$ price had a flat increase BUT, that's why you have 3rd party sites where you can buy keys these days for way cheaper and sales on Distribution services like Steam.
And let's put it another way. IF Steam was the problem, why Ubisoft, Rockstar created their own service? why did Activision buy Blizzard and move all their games on blizzard's service(besides the servers) ? yet, they still sell on steam. why? There are other platforms like GOG, or epic store, where you can buy from and dont need a steam account to activate your key and play.
There are so many of us here noticing the god tier production put into this animation. This is just pure gold!! Please Tom & Don give us a sequel!!!
Up
Next episode please! You can't leave something this epic on a cliffhanger 😂
I like how the console wars universe is being expanded across time. Would be interesting to see where they go with 1985 or 2001
Definitely exciting, can't wait to see more. I gotta see what these wars were like in the 2000's.
But I still do wonder how things are going for our console bois modern day. Imagine if the members of the Sony clan of today became scattered and isolated after the PS5 pre-order disaster lol.
atari 2600 versus Colecovision?
Can't ignore the 70's, that's the genesis chapter
2001 with the dying Dreamcast would be epic as fuck!
They shall summon kratos
Amazing as usual. You captured the complete essence of the console wars in the mid 90s. Sony came in and straight dominated.
And they had the N64 hold him back, lol what, the N64 sucked compared to the PS1, barely anyone made games for it because it has such out dated processing power. It had a rare few gems, out and of the small selection of games they had. PS1 had so much cool stuff back then.
@@TainyaGaming The N64 was revolutionary. To say otherwise is asinine.
@@TainyaGaming Kinda ironic how PS1 became the meme for bad graphics today. Meanwhile N64 carrying the retro/speedrun community with emulators everywhere. In fact Mario 64 re-releases on Switch alone out-sold the PS5 itself lmao
@@TainyaGaming Nah fam the titles on N64 were legendary - ocarina of time was given a perfect score. Nintendo at the time was riding on their legendary properties as well. PS1 had a few gems and was the future in gaming tech and as a result had a slight edge on N64...plus they better catered to FPS and more mature games. And then...PS2 came out - Game cube tried to put up a fight but was beaten outright, while it had flagship titles that were great it failed in other aspects including poor functionality compared to PS2 and a poor roster - it was at that stage PS2 was completely on top and it's only real competitor was X-box I believe.
@@nobodyknowsforsure you boomers still arguing about consoles 25 years later have the same energy as old men in the park fighting over ducks
When the Dreamcast shows up to win this, it should walk away into the sunset as the greatest consol ever, never to be seen again.
Lmao but it wasn't though
@@crodo123 It did walk away, and was never seen again.
It was very good for its time tho
@@crodo123 it was the best console at the time
@@Juanjitsu135 no it wasn't. It never has. It was the most POWERFUL console. But it failed because it was not good. The controller was horrible. It had good games but very few. The playstation was way way better.
The n64 appearance at the end still gives chills we need a conclusion to this amazing saga
I genuinely want a proper series of this
@Ayato 🅥 fake don’t click
@Ayato 🅥
BEGONE BOT!!!
You guys put more effort into your ads than many channels do on their actual content. Even though you put the ads at the end, I always stick around to watch them, and actually look forward to them.
the ads here are just as good as the vids
FACT... Flashgitz adds are super awesome and they go up and beyond what regular channels do.
Same. If every ad would be like their's...
But have you bought what they are selling you?
Same. I watch flashgitz for the ads lol
2:27 Crash giving off anti piracy screen energy
This is god tier. On so many levels. Please. I need this as a series...
If someone just played the audio without the video, I wouldn’t hesitate to say that it was an actual anime, the voice acting is too authentic.
Chicken balls
Bicken challs
POV: you've seen this guy in almost every CZcams comment section
This is anime though?
What anime your awesome new profile picture is from?
@@MorgurEdits i think it's a fanart of Garou, from One Punch Man.
This needs to be a series. From beginning until current consoles.
If so, the Wii ought to be female since it caught attention of so many girls and moms. Then Wii U is just the fat emotional sister.
Then there could be a sci fi spin off of far future consoles
Current consoles already have one
@@justyourordinarytom6528 no I think he means from the very first console ever to the latest , an entirely new series that tells the story of all the generations
@@zacharycardon2353 then the switch can be your weird annoying cousin that collects stamps
Plz do a whole series of this following the wars of each generation 🙏
We need the part 2
A console war video, but for _my_ generation. Bless you.
To the old guard! 🍺
The war between consoles back then was true trench warfare.
@@Edanite now it’s like iraq
Unrestricted and full of accusation,hypocrisy and standards
I still have my PS1
sequal
I gotta give Flash Gitz their props the production quality on all of their animations are phenomenal. Both eye catching and hilarious.
And the sponsored content too!
Well, they are getting shittons of money monthly so..
I like how Sega off’s themself after the PlayStation shows up. At around that time the Saturn was basically already dead and the Dreamcast after it didn’t sell good either basically making their death in the console war.
This is too good. I need a full blown series with a beginning, middle, and end to the story.
2:28
Holy sh*t that was hilarious. Definitely my favorite part. Solid work as always boys
Holy shit as a Japanese I can confirm the spoken language of the VA's are legit!!! nice job flashgitz!!!
Man, I was enjoying this one. Please make this a series
Please keep making more of these, we need the continuation!! This video is amazing!
The voice acting had me cracking.
I hope next episode will include the actual events where Nintendo backstabbed Sony and canceled their agreement to co-create a gaming console, only to have Sony rage with anger and conjure PS1 from the pits of Mount doom.
Nintendo backstabbed??? True it could be looked at that way but you're missing a key important part. Sony contract stated Nintendo ips and properties soley belongs to them if they went ahead with the contract.
Hence lead Nintendo to back out of the deal because it was not legally fair to them at the time. If Nintendo had stayed with the deal they would be Sony's first party studio now with less creative freedom.
So in short thank god Nintendo "backstabbed" them.
@@ShadowHane
I'm pretty sure Sony got the last laugh seeing how they were the first company to make a game console that actually sold 100 million units worldwide and Nintendo's been playing catch-up with them for years now.
I'm happy that PlayStation as a brand exists and that it's still going strong, but at the same time, it makes you wonder what gaming would be like, nowadays if certain things or certain decisions worked out in some company's favor.
10/10 absolute masterpiece. This is undoubtedly the greatest anime of all time. Even the CGI is amazing.
Thank you fir this historically accurate recreation.
I'd love to see a sequel to this someday since there aren't that many videos about PlayStation vs. Nintendo. Maybe one about PS5 vs. Switch.
Shameful yet accurate Sega really did hurt itself at key moments where they still could’ve competed with Nintendo and Sony
At least Sega Saturn & Dreamcast tried. And I’m referring to the Sega Saturn in Japan not in America which did poorly.
@@HyperSonicXtreme
The Dreamcast tried, the Saturn was dead on arrival.
@@HyperSonicXtreme I still have a Dreamcast and soul calibur 2 in my garage. Got a controller and all the cords to
I didn't have a Dreamcast but a friend of mine did. That console was ahead of its time. PS1 and PS2 had far worse hardware than the N64 or GameCube/Xbox. It wasn't until PS3 that Sony actually had some good hardware. I think PS1 and PS2 basically survived on the ignorance of parents who didn't know any better. That and this weird thought process that Nintendo didn't have enough non-kiddy games, which was absolute BS.
Never get involved in a land war in Asia.
- Vizzini
The voice acting is spot on and the visuals and animation is downright awesome. I wanna see more 94 console wars please. I wanna see a aftermath of their war. It’s like watching a prequel episode of the previous console wars you made.
Fantastic animations and top tier voice acting , I definitely would love to see more!
This needs to continue through all the generations
Another banger of a video mates, really looking forward for the epic conclusion of this console war lol.
Console wars never end 😅
Fun fact: Nintendo actually was going to partner with Sony to launch a console, but broke the deal. Sony decided to soldier on, finishing and selling their console alone. That console was the first PlayStation.
so did Sega of America but then Japan thought it was retarded.
Oh yeah, I remember this from Game Dev Tycoon where I was legit confused why the Playstation 1 looks odd
I remember reading that years ago and saying to myself "Nintendo created a monster."
Nintendo were fools, they not only went for the CD-i over what PlayStation was offering but they also took it to themselves to embarrass Sony in Press. Welp Sony removed them from the Traditional Home market for consoles in the end.
Also fun fact: Sony tried again with Sega to spite Nintendo. Sega of Americas accepted but Sega of Japan refused. Lack of faith in their ability to make video games apparently.
Just came back here after the tier list on Tom and Don. I can't believe more people haven't seen this.
NEED ABOUT 3 OR MORE SEASONS OF THIS ITS SO GOOD!
As a PC master race myself. I find the lore of the console wars very interesting. The manga too has already gone far, we're already at the HANDHELD ARC with new characters like Steam, Apple, Samsung along with the old ones like Nintendo. Fascinating to be sure,
The handheld arc was a decade ago
@@orochifire that's where your wrong, the handheld arc is now dominated by the switch OLED, the steam deck and the illusive OneXplayer!
And ofc you have the Vita Islanders but we don't talk about those.
They've made videos shitting on pcmr players already.
@@cypurrpunkmusic9064 I miss the original series before it went all corporate. You can't beat the old hoop and stick arc or masturbating to suggestive clouds arc.
Nobody give a fuck lmao
I'm waiting for the next episode already. this was an awesome piece of work!
@Braty sis chanel 5 No one wants your Onlyfans videos, now screw off you bot
This one is like a prequel to the other ones, I hope this one continues in the series
We need a part 2 to this man love the art
The amount of lore that's possible for this mini-series is astounding and I can't wait for the next episode.
I like how this feels more epic than the other console war videos, despite it being small in scale. The future console wars followed Shonen rules and became too big to be interesting.
I find it more just parallels actual console wars. Back in the day, they were basically telling each other to kill themselves and shit like that, while now it's more just really petty and not as meaningful or matters as much about which console you get when they all do the same thing now compared to where each one was very different back then
Lies again? Navy Seals National Service
@@Freelancer837 correction. Now they don't do anything at all. Switch was a breath of fresh air and it is 7 years old already.
This was freaking awesome .. joined the console wars back with first genesis into PlayStation .. found memories
This is easily their best video. Pure art.
That was weirdly badass. The execution was so good that it could carry itself on that alone, so much so that the jokey concept was the accessory rather than the other way around. They went all out, even for the ad. Just incredible.
@zuygj bnsv I would absolutely watch that.
Yeah it was great to be honest I would love an actual Anime of every Console and PC generation going to war with each other but then in the end they decide to have peace after all the years of fighting and bloodshed.
@@shroom5834 I mean, Hyperdimension Neptunia is basically that...
@@bernardomarkuskampffdemelo4323 Yeah I know that's the third time someone said that lol but the point is that I would actually love to see a Console vs PC Anime like this.
How are these simultaneously so silly and so epic? Easily my favorite Flashgitz series!
It's awesome, but I like more the black templarsv series
This is by far their best cartoon yet. The voice acting is selling this big time.
For some reason watching Sonic violent being strangled to death while the drowning theme plays is too hilarious
This was genuinely amazing
i like it
WITNESS THE POWER OF THREE DIMENSIONS
Like always
Good
Imagine if the N64 had four arms.
Jokes aside, this one is the best one so far on this channel. Kudos to everyone involved 👏
There's just so much fun watching the console wars being presented as fictionalized wars or fights.
Can't wait for the OVA where Sega, Rare, and all those devs have to pick sides like a Basketball draft night
My fav console war video so far.
Thanks for continuing to make these dope videos lol
2:21 I laughed out loud with this part!
When your toons are exceptional and your ads are just as entertaining, you know you’re doing something right.
Thanks boys. (And thanks for giving Don a moment to rest a tiny bit).
they know they audience
know your audience and you will succeed
I would totally watch a series of this
As a kid who grew up in the '90s - this is exactly how it went.
I love how the console wars are like Japanese consoles competing with each other like the Sengoku jidai and after the victory of Sony it became international with Microsoft
🤭
For years Playstation enjoyed its rule with a few minor engagements with Nintendo until Xbox invaded. Kickstarting the console wars.
@@markmartinez6317 Xbox really never made much of an impact on the console wars with 179 million units sold in 4 consoles. Each console has preformed well below Playstation or Nintendo's sales, with only really having a foothold in the US. Heck in total sales Sony surprisingly has only 42 million more hardware sales total in 7 consoles (586 million PS1-5 and PSP+Vita) than Nintendo has of just it's 5 handhelds (544 million GB, GBA, DS, 3DS, Switch) It's wild that everyone ignores the powerhouse of Nintendo despite it not just surviving but flourishing, with other consoles often emulating it to try to keep pace (D-pads, Rumble, Kinect, PS Move, Steam deck)
@@The31stcenturyfox I mean, the 360 managed to outsell the PS3 as a whole, but yeah, as a whole, Xbox can't sell as many as PlayStation since Japan is very xenophobic, and Europe in general is very loyal to PlayStation. The US is always very even about it though.
@@Freelancer837 You can't claim Xbox failed in Japan because of Xenophobia. It didn't know and continues to fail to understand the Japanese Market. When Nintendo came to the US it was very careful to change when it needed to suit North American needs and establish itself. Earning Trust From the NES front loader design to distance itself from the failed Atari to the choice to not use the real Super Mario Bros 2 and instead port another game as it instead. Wise choices. Xbox failed to understand the Japanese market when it first tried, using it's north American tactics and will never capture it, because the brand is damaged there.
The fact that I can't tell if the dialogues were ripped from another anime or if they were made especially for this skit shows just how well you played into those tropes
You can find the voice actors in the description
This is the console wars summed up in 4 minutes and it goes hard
We need more of this timeline
This series is legit the best content ive seen for years. Fucking love it... And I want more.
The Thumbnail doesn't make justice of how good this was! I was expecting the usual "Sonic and Mario beating the crap of each other". Didn't expect THE LITERAL CONSOLES FIGHTING A BLOODY WAR IN A JAPANESE SETTING WITH GREAT VISUALS, ANIMATION AND VOICE ACTING.
Amazing job! :D
I bet if the thumbnail was diffrent there would be more views
It has been 1 year but im still angry at the thumbnail
Yeah, y'all really took it to the next level with this one. That voice acting was top tier.
This captured the true feeling of how the Console Wars felt like in the 90's! Incredible job!
As a lifelong Nintendo player, the ending brought a tear to my eye.
Amen man... Amen
The videos with no facial expressions are always my favourite because this channel has a habit of making me sick with just the face's but weirdly these console episodes are my favourite because they can show emotions without any facial expressions lol
i need a part 2 to this IMMEDIATELY
We need a part 2 cause this is cinematic masterpiece!!
Yeeeesss
Just the production quality on this one. Even new Sonic sprites!
You've done it again, Flashgitz. *applauds*
Can there be a part 2 of this cause this was an awesome video
I could watch and rewatch this
2:30 this part made me laugh way too much 😂
Especially Sonic terrified just makes it better.
I was really hoping that after Sony said "Witness three dimensions" I was hoping the SNES was going to whip out the Super FX chip with Starfox or something to fight sony equally
Sony should've pulled out FF7
My thoughts exactly, but it was still nice to see Nintendo 64 come to the rescue. Star Fox, ah the memories ❤️.
@@creeperkinght1144 Yesss! Looking for this comment! Why I went to Sony! Must follow the never final Final Fantasy!
And Sega should've pulled out the Sega CD AND the 32X to overpower the PSX
The Saga CD... hahaHaHaHaHAHAHAHA!!! You could at least have mentioned the Saturn.
Bro!!!! I NEED A MINI SERIES OF THIS!
Sigue con la evolución, no puedes dejarnos así, la Nintendo 64 vs play 2 etc...
I like this new take on the console wars. Sega offing itself is historically accurate
Nintendo and Sega working together that’s something you don’t see every day 😧
@Ayato 🅥idk how a bot account managed to get verified on CZcams it’s sorta odd
@@OGVeteran not verified though
Not even Saint Seiya or Dragon Ball Z got this excitement at the story courses ...... it's sublime, and pretty well designed everything. Nice work dudes.
Regards 👌👍
N64 coming In and calling SNES big bro was my favorite part and I think this Is now my favorite flashgitz animation 🙌🏾💯 10/10 true art, a well deserved and earned like on the video 😤
The animation, the plot, and the voice acting are all high grade. True masterpiece
Sounds like voice of vegeta super NES
@@madwolf8615 ehh not really vegetas voice is a bit deeper. The VAs accentuation though is quite similar.
i absolutely loved the sprite work in this, all the unique poses and expressions where really cool to see ^^
Honestly this brings me Joy - More pls
Please make another one like this because this one was awesome
I was halfway expecting Sega to power up to reach it's final form from 32x to Sega CD. This is GOLD!
STILL WOULD HAVE DIED LOL
@@i-yell-a-lot4906 it would have been a glorious battle or desperate and clumsy- Probably the latter lol.
Props to both of the voice actors in this, they went full tilt and it paid off.
It's bizarre how emotionally invested I got in this. SAVE HIM LIL' BRO!
mixing the lore of console wars with epic Japanese anime cinematography is genius. Cant wait for the manga. The ancient origins of the console generations is insane. truly an ancient battle.
This is perfect. As someone who grew up in the 90s console wars this cracks me up, love the voice acting it's like perfect. I cannot wait for the next part of this lol.
Same here man this brought back memories and to be honest I would love a Anime with every PC and Console generation fighting each other but then they would come together for peace after all the years of fighting and bloodshed. I loved the voice acting to it was spot on amazing.
The world need more of this
Yes! They made the prequel storyline of the console wars. The plot of the eight gen(PS4, Xbox One, Switch) and ninth gen(PS5 and Xbox Series) was a great arc but there's so much more story to tell from previous generations.
As soon as I saw the N64 controller, I lost my shit. That's my all time favorite console. This is so accurate of a portrayal too. I love when N64 called Super Nintendo big brother.
🤓🤓🤓
BEST BIT! Had me on the verge of tears.
