    Episode 128
    Like many games from the 80's and 90's, Snow Brothers started out as an arcade game, where it was called Snow Bros. It was part of a growing trend in arcades to make games that couples could play together.
    Much like Bubble Bobble, you'll capture enemies, but this time you'll use snow instead of bubbles. With an enemy completely encased in snow, you can roll it at other enemies for a devastating effect!
    So how did this game get from the Arcade to the NES, what changes had to be made, and why is this game so expensive to buy on eBay? In today's episode we'll find out, and then we'll dive deep into the gameplay where we'll learn:
    * The best way to complete ALL 50 Floors!
    * How to find both HIDDEN WARP ZONES!
    * Secret techniques for ONE-SHOT CLEARS!
    * Where to find HIDDEN ITEMS!
    * How to get BOTH ENDINGS - The normal one, and the Special one!
    * The SECRET CODE to unlock a SPECIAL MODE!
    * The best way to defeat EVERY BOSS, even the Stone Bubble Heads... AND MORE!
    Thanks for watching!

    This is such a nostalgic game for me.
    Me and my sister used it play it a lot and we both finished it individually but never together 😂
    But now, after returning to it over a decade later, we were finally able to do it a few weeks ago! So yay!

    I’ve been waiting for this one! I was born in 82 so I NES was life for us growing up in a small town since we didn’t have an actual arcade (just some scattered at different places).. This was one of those classic arcade style games that translated great to a home system. Keep up the good work for us 40+ year olds who want to re live our childhood lol 👍

    I remember this game vividly. Had no idea it was considered rare but given the time of its release in late '91, most games in this time period command higher prices.

    That was an unexpected New Year gifts! Snow Bros has always been one of my favorite games; I have so much fond memories of it... I first played it on an arcade when I was a kid, during winter vacations.
    Thanks for making this video. The NES version doesn't look as cool as the arcade version, but it has a lot of what makes it a great game.

    A good friend mentioned your videos last night and...consider me your newest fan! :) I just love the way you present these games and strategies and it's really impressive stuff! And I LOVE this particular choice too! I rented Snow Brothers as a kid time and time again and it's so nostalgic and fun! I literally stumbled into the good ending one night when I had a magical run and didn't have to continue too. What a wonderful surprise that was! Even with my knowledge of the game though, your video showed me a time attack that I NEVER knew about! Incredible! Thanks for sharing and for choosing such a great little hidden gem on the NES. Loved it!

  • @Vicerion17
    @Vicerion17 5 месяцев назад +1

    I have this game but never really had played it growing up, it's music reminds me of Kung Fu Heroes, another NES game, especially the slot music. It's a game I've hoped UCBVG would eventually cover as it's fairly difficult(so far as I remember) with lots of hidden secret items, warps and branching levels.

    • @superbonk3021
      @superbonk3021 5 месяцев назад

  • @not2tired
    @not2tired 5 месяцев назад +1

    One of my favorite casual co-op games! I love the 8-bit sound of the NES version. On the Genesis version, you can mash like a maniac by using your pointer and ring finger on the A and C buttons and alternating as fast as you can. It's really fun and also you can rack up serious chip damage on the bosses.

    I have this on a 4 in 1 Famiclone cartridge alongside Pocket Monster, Ninja Ryukenden 2 and Super Contra 6 (a fair hack of Contra Force). Snow Bros. was one of mom's favourite game such as Solomon's Key or Pooyan. She played this game with dad quite often. It's a really fair one of the NES game palette.
    Happy New Year and kepp up your work!

    Hello U Can Beat Video Games today I have some games propositions that I want YOU to play, have you ever heard of the japanese arcade game developers called Psikyo they're quite underrated but very beloved in the 90's until 2000's beginnings! they're quite in the shoot 'em up genre for making:
    Strikers 1945 Franchise!
    Sengoku Franchise!
    and Gunbird which is absolutely one of my favorites Psikyo games franchise!!
    Well even they're quite known for they're brutal difficulties they are extremely love by many.
    It will be so great and amazing that you do a Ultimate Run about them especially Gunbird! ☺👍🥰👌🙏

    Snow Bros 3 - I think its called the Next Generation is really odd entry the snow Bros look totally different and even uncanny valley.
    There was another game similar to Snow Bros and Bubble Bobble was on the arcade and neo geo where you play as Gnomes or Dwarfs with big hammers but I cannot remember it's title.
