Super robot taisen W would be neat to see in the DS one. Got a fan-translation a couple years back and it was a pretty great niche Strategy rpg about robots fighting each other. Its basically a big officially licensed crossover fanfic which sounds stupid but the writers do what i think is a really good job making the player feel like these characters from different brands belong together under one fleet.
DEAD HEAD FRED (PSP) - it really annoys me how a game loaded with personality in both style, story, character, and humor has become so obscured. It actually the first game to won the Writers Guild of America's award for video game writing, and the lead character is voiced by John C. McGinley (Dr. Cox from Scrubs).
Not having the time or intrest in other RPG franchises, loves a RPG series known for being comically long and time consuming to simply finish yet alone to remotely complete which baloons the size potentially dozens of times larger. Guess all his RPG time is dedicated to Disgaea and he has none left for any others! 😅
me and my bro had to tag team it in order to really reach the high level we wanted and still took as such a long time, but everythin in it is so much fun. it was a great bonding experiece, i love this game so much
There is actually one PSP game that I used to play as a kid and it's called "Skate Park City". It's basically Jet Set Radio on the PSP, but you're actually fighting robots that takes over the city. PSP, in general, is way ahead of its time and it shows how games can fit in a small screen regardless of its hardwares limitations.
@@ultravioletcombat5933 because it’s the same game under a different name again but I’m pretty sure that the psp version controls way better the the Wii version but I wouldn’t know I haven’t played it (well outside of the tutorial on the psp version) I really hope I don’t sound rude here and if I do I’m sorry.
Disgaea is like my favorite rpg series of all time, so i was psyched when i saw the thumbnail featuring Etna. Disgaea 1, even if it's showing it's age a bit gameplay wise, still has possibly my favorite story in the whole franchise, it's emotionally impactful, funny, endearing, and has a wonderful message. So thank you for finally covering this series Pan, hope you enjoy the rest, they get better and better gameplay wise! (Disgaea 6 is weird tho, but i still liked it)
Disgaea 1 is also the only game that isn't super saturated, the colors are much darker than any other game. Plus, the story isn't full of meta, 4th wall humor nearly as much as the sequels.
Same here but replace my favorite with 2 since that's the one I dumped the most hours in (5000+) as a kid. I've also played every game in the series and became a huge fan. I still say skip Disgaea 6, tho. Very few redeeming qualities in that one.
@@rudeboyspodcast my favorite is disgaea 3, i adore the characters, and the setting of the evil academy, and it was the last disgaea game with the old sprite style which has grown on me quite a lot. We need a rerelease of that game (and Disgaea D2 for that matter), idk why nis isn't getting on that to be honest
Powered Up is such a great title that is severely underrated. It frustrates me so much that it still hasn't been rereleased on any other platforms. That game deserves more love.
Here’s a neat little story, while at Momocon this year I saw a booth had a copy Disgaea 4, which turns was one of entries Pan didn’t have, so I decided to gift it to him to help grow his collection.😁👌
If this is what gets you into Disgaea then heed this warning. Pan warns against throwing prinnies if you want the best ending, but the condition for getting the best ending isn’t avoiding throwing your prinnies, it’s avoiding any and all deaths via friendly fire, which includes killing an allied prinny by throwing it. Kill even a single friendly unit and you can say goodbye to the best ending. Also, Laharl can dang near solo the whole of Disgaea 1.
As someone who doesn't really know Disgaea but is interested in getting into the series, I unfortunately do not understand what throwing Prinnies means.
If you read "Tips & Tricks" in the early 2000s, you know Megaman Powered Up was THE game for the PSP! That game is still pristine. The art style definitely helped it age well. Thanks for the reminder, Pan!
43:48 funny thing about Prinnies? Later games make their deaths from being tossed not count towards your ally kills so it won’t lock you into the bad endings.
Even though I don't watch Pan's new videos all the time, whenever I do out of boredom, he never fails to give me 90s and 2000s nostalgia with the visuals, music, his voice and jokes.
I had a friend that said to have wasted a whole school year on Disgaea 2. I went to check it out. Honesty, it's not exactly what I go for, but it's great for people that enjoy it
They're definitely not games I'd recommend. The meta game appeals to the min maxers that love to pump the individual stat numbers and there's SO MUCH GRINDING.
@@that_deadeyegamer7920 depends on how you play it, you COULD spend your time just min and maxing on the grinding levels OR you can grind the fun way and just do item worlds and adjust the levels as you see fit to be fun. it's one of those games where you really have to separate yourself from the goal and enjoy the journey cause the fastest way is going to be the most boring way which is typical in rpg's or any game really. I only use the grinding levels to catch characters up or to create a "vanguard" character.
More Disgaea and NIS support is always nice, I live in constant fear that one day they'll no longer be around. I hope one day we reach Disgaea 5 level peak again with the 3D engine.
Dear@@RebelTaxiif you're going to look at DS Games you have to look at the Scribblenauts Series for many kids born in the year 2000 that Game was basically a gateway for the DS🎮and which of these Nintendo Video Games do you think illumination is going to try to make into a Kirby⭐Animal Crossing🎸🐕or Star Fox⭐🦊because if there's one thing I've learned about illumination they love their talking Animal Movies🐈🐕
@@mrmysterious8124If you're going down the Scribblenauts road, you also have to check out Drawn To Life. The franchise got drowned out by Scribblenauts and forgotten, which is a shame because it absolutely rocked when I was like 10.
Disgaea 7 is certainly getting closer to that, but since the stigma of game designs these days being less polish at the start and just fix it later, while also needing to put loads of more QoLs for those who have less time to couch and chill on stuff and usually more pre occupied with other things like social media. Kind of means older stuff can’t be as enjoyable anymore. Which certainly shows with say the recently released super Mario rpg remake where they put auto saves, a extra action mechanic with the gauge special moves and many other QoLs that are mandatory to any game made this day and age.
@@BladeSerph If it was any other company I'd be inclined to agree, but NIS has been pretty good taking chances and attempting to innovate for better or worse. They're the only company I feel still has a strong feeling of the eponymous "Soul" from their games.
Thank you so much for including megaman powered up and pointing out how much extra they went. Also the drop of dudes rap (megaman drops Jan. 7th) was amazing
That remake AMV Tribute based on the classic 2000s commercial/trailer of Disgaea 1 was wonderful. Really sums up the badass absurdly over the top exaggerated action and feeling of being an unstoppable force of nature wreacking havok on all who appose you that is core piece of Disgaea's identity as a series.
Danganronpa 1 & 2 were probably not obscure enough for this video but I thought to bring them up anyway. Silent Hill: Shattered Memories is also the best post-Team Silent game that deserves attention. Phantom Brave is also a game from the Disgaea devs. For your DS video: - OkamiDen is a sequel to Okami that not everyone knows about - Radiant Historia is a timeline-jumping RPG that's _really_ good - Sonic Rush & Rush Adventure were fun 2D games that introduced Blaze the Cat - The World Ends With You is an RPG in an urban setting with slick visuals
Honestly my thoughts. Some people might forget they come from the PSP/Vita though, and I'd say many people know _of_ the games but not really what they are.
Yo, seeing you fall in love with Disgaea (long before the conception of this video) was one of the coolest things I've seen from a popular cartoon RUclipsr such as yourself. Should your Disgaea love continue, I'd love for you to talk about how the game series does so much with limited animation and the way it recycles assets. Just check out the ultimate attacks in Disgaea 5. Amazing. Thanks as always for another video I will watch over and over and possibly leave on in the background. Edit: Oh, and I nominate Disgaea Infinite next, a visual novel in which you play as a Prinny trying to solve a petty argument between Etna and Laharl over who are Laharl's pudding. Makes great use of assets as I've stated above.
I always learn something new about the valley when I watch your videos. Also your videos have brought me so much comfort for 10 years now. It's to the point where I can be so depressed but I see you uploaded something, I can chill alone in my apartment couch, underneath my blanket, and just relax and forget about the world. I love showing your videos to several of my friends, even my friends, who have zero interest in any of this, like your content. I love everything you do, Pan. I hope you know how much your videos mean to me and many others. Can't wait to support your show once it's out, puro 956 ALV
For either another PS2 or PSP video, seeing Gitaroo Man get talked about would be great. It's a rhythm game that's stuck with me ever since I beat it at the beginning of this year, and it feels as if there's nothing truly like it.
Thank you for featuring Disgaea, I feel the same way about the trio and the other colorful characters! They do kinda remind me of Billy and Mandy (and Grim), just a couple of vitriolic friends facing unspeakable horrors. Just fyi, those images with the sprawl of characters is from the spin off novels that aren't canon but still interesting to read. Unfortunately, I'm not certain if all of them were translated but someone did some of them!
Our Messiah has returned! Love your content and aesthetic man. You’re one of the main reasons I love the 2000s video game scene as much as I do lol. Thanks.
I have a PSP emulator that I had basically exclusively to play the LocoRoco games, nice to learn about some other cool ones to check out! Awesome video as always. Also I'm a Mega Man fan so awesome to see you talk about one of the games.
That was fun! As always I appreciate your videos, Pan. They're like miniature, home theater events I always enjoy watching. I was thoroughly entertained and informed; whether on what new games to try, or what new music to go hunting for. Since 2014, it's always been great hearing you share your knowledge or sentiments on our entertainment. Here's to more in the future---and the the success of your Loki pilot, bro!
the way how you ended up this video with disgaea is just perfect,, i love it, you should defenetly give Disgaea Infinite or the Prinny games a shot since those are in the PSP as well
I love his Strange and Colorful games videos! I would love to see him tackle on thr Strange and Colorful Arcade Games, where he would talk about the arcade exclusive games like Namco's Taiko no Tatsujin, Sega's Let's Go Jungle, Taito's Haunted Museum, and Konami's Wartran Troopers and Action Deka!
As someone who has a fixation on Robot Masters, Megaman Powered Up is really precious to me, I love how very distinctive it is with each one, god I haven't seen another Megaman game where you can play as the Robot Masters, it It would be great that Capcom decided to make a sequel or a new game where we can have these interactions before starting a boss battle and we can play as them.
your new naration style is a straight up acid trip. It's a great addition to you're already impressive repetiore of balance between jest and informative deliberation. What'd you put in that Jam my mojito?
If you cover DS games there's an obscure one I had called Tornado. It's like Katamari but insits that you constantly spin your stylus and blow into microphone.
The psp has always been one of my favorite consoles, period. I put sooo many hours on that thing in my adolescence; sleepovers, holiday family visits, camping trips, school, friends house, bathtub, I always had that fucking psp. This was before I hacked it, and my usage really went into overdrive, playing literally any game I wanted! Eventually, it stopped working. It's been quite a few years but I'm currently working on slowly fixing it, piece by piece. But I think I'll just get one of those fancy pre-hacked ones on etsy someday. Also one time some kid in our class in the 8th grade was going around showing off the porn on his psp. He was a weird kid! Anyway I just know this video is gonna be a classic Rebeltaxi jam. Already smashed that like button❤
Yo! You're finally talking about Disgaea! Nice! I do hope in that next DS video you've mentioned, I hope you give a shoutout to The World Ends With You, especially since you mentioned it when you talked about Tetsuya Nomura in Samurai Legend Musashi on your PS2 video
Great video, can I just say how much I love how your the only RUclipsr that has ad breaks? Every other content creator on this platform just have ads that play mid sentence, thanks for such awesome content.👍
I love how he's playing Spiderman on a PSP. Maybe someone should tell him to review some Lego TV shows in the near future. I'd love a review on every Lego TV show ever made. That will be great for him to do. 36:2536:4534:3730:40
Really fun vid! Great to see some love for the PSP, it was a major part of my own gaming upbringing. For real tho, Sony actually had a solid first party lineup on the PSP, especially through Japan Studio. A couple of the studio's games I've played on the console include: - the Patapon series (1, 2, 3) - the LocoRoco series (1, 2, Midnight Carnival) - Ape Quest - Echoshift - The Eye of Judgment: Legends - No Heroes Allowed - Patchwork Heroes Also a special shoutout to another great game on the platform that's playable on Steam, Half-Minute Hero!
I can see why Spider-Man 2's soundtrack was too killer. Good for spreading the word about Disgaea! What an underrated JRPG franchise. When that DS games video arrives with TWEWY finally reviewed on this channel, my life will be complete.
Man could you imagine a game where losing makes it so that you have to equip someone else's furry cosmetic set and it can spread throughout the entire world until everyone is entrapped in involuntary fur suits
Another fantastic video, Pan. Your editing style continues to be amazing and your humor continues to be absolutely insane in the best ways. "I believe in God but I praise no landlord" is just one of the many hilarious quotes in the vid. Keep up the great work and looking forward to the Loki IRL pilot.
As some one who used to physically own the Disgaea anime and made his ps2 explode for playing Disgaea 2 religiously for endless hours, i apreciate that Disgaea montage.
Surprised LocoRoco and Papaton were left off, but I suppose that's follow-up video material. Other games to consider for this list would be Archer Maclean's Mercury, Me & My Katamari, and Pac-Man World Rally (that last one has content exclusive to the PSP version, strange to leave it out of the home console versions)
thx for the INFECTED game cover. Its my fav game and the PSP helped my a lot back in my school days as a strange kid to find some cool friends to hang with and play. Hello to Theo if you reading this! (+[ ]::)
20:18 Megaman powered up is so underrated but I wouldn’t be surprised if this and Megaman zero maverick hunter on psp could get rereleased along side each other in the future.
Would be cool to see you cover Mad Rat Dead at some point since it was made by the same company who made Disgaea. Very fun rhythm platformer with an incredible art style and a good soundtrack.
Mega Man Powered Up was crack for my brain back in the day. I spent so much time making custom levels and uploading them when I got the opportunity. The two I remember being proud of was a difficult fire-based obstacle course and a series of 5 levels that progressed through "Atlantis". Another was a prison-break kind of level with an above ground path and an underground path. I still vividly remember loitering in a creepy abandoned two-story shed just to get a good free wi-fi connection to upload stages (such a thing was a rarity in those days lol). Anyway, some damn good times and I wish they'd make a sequel.
7:23 Hearing this just reminds me that there is a similar issue in Hot Wheels Beat That for the DS where one of the achievements have you use every shortcut in all stages, but one of the stages literally has no short cut so you can't 100% the game and that piss me off as a kid
There's one PSP game that I feel gets none of the credit it deserves. Dead Head Fred. I think most of us chalked it up to "That weird game cover we saw at Blockbuster". But the game is such a fun experience, with brilliant writing and voice acting and ... passable gameplay...
Mega man Maverick Hunter x was one of my all time fan games as a, i beat it with x twice and with vile and i would use the button lock on there to just listen to the music with earbuds while I did chores and stuff
32:53 That actually shocked me! I literally paused my Mario kart game because of how dark that was. Holy crap! That horrible! How did that make it into the game?!

REBELTAXI IS BACK YAY!!!! I love the way these videos are edited =)
That was fun! As always I appreciate your videos, Pan. They're like miniature, home theater events I always enjoy watching. I was thoroughly entertained and informed; whether on what new games to try, or what new music to go hunting for. Since 2014, it's always been great hearing you share your knowledge or sentiments on our entertainment. Here's to more in the future---and the the success of your Loki pilot, bro!
the way how you ended up this video with disgaea is just perfect,, i love it, you should defenetly give Disgaea Infinite or the Prinny games a shot since those are in the PSP as well
I love your videos, they're the closest thing to Saturday morning cartoons.
"I've got so few options for run-and-jump racers."
Rayman Arena: "Stop pretending I don't exist!"
I love his Strange and Colorful games videos! I would love to see him tackle on thr Strange and Colorful Arcade Games, where he would talk about the arcade exclusive games like Namco's Taiko no Tatsujin, Sega's Let's Go Jungle, Taito's Haunted Museum, and Konami's Wartran Troopers and Action Deka!
That disgaea outro was sick great job man.
As someone who has a fixation on Robot Masters, Megaman Powered Up is really precious to me, I love how very distinctive it is with each one, god I haven't seen another Megaman game where you can play as the Robot Masters, it It would be great that Capcom decided to make a sequel or a new game where we can have these interactions before starting a boss battle and we can play as them.
Being born in the mid 2000s I’m glad Rebel taxi can capture some of the aesthetic that I missed out on
your new naration style is a straight up acid trip. It's a great addition to you're already impressive repetiore of balance between jest and informative deliberation. What'd you put in that Jam my mojito?
I’m so glad somebody is finally saying something good about Sonic Rivals. I love the game
Still have my modded silver psp 2000 to this day. Great little console for emulation and has a fairly big library full of all sorts of classics!
The level of marketing that Infected had was wild. Pan truly finds the most fascinating games that I've never heard of.
The eyecatches are beautiful... The first one nearly drove me to tears
He released this on the same day the Madame Web trailer came out, featuring a PSP. Coincidence? Probably.
I WAS LOOKING AT THAT TRAILER seconds ago. They took out the silver circle in the back of that PSP. Is this movie in that past?
@@RebelTaxi Surreal knowing that a PSP marks the film as a period piece
If you cover DS games there's an obscure one I had called Tornado. It's like Katamari but insits that you constantly spin your stylus and blow into microphone.
The psp has always been one of my favorite consoles, period. I put sooo many hours on that thing in my adolescence; sleepovers, holiday family visits, camping trips, school, friends house, bathtub, I always had that fucking psp. This was before I hacked it, and my usage really went into overdrive, playing literally any game I wanted! Eventually, it stopped working. It's been quite a few years but I'm currently working on slowly fixing it, piece by piece. But I think I'll just get one of those fancy pre-hacked ones on etsy someday.
Also one time some kid in our class in the 8th grade was going around showing off the porn on his psp. He was a weird kid!
Anyway I just know this video is gonna be a classic Rebeltaxi jam. Already smashed that like button❤
By the way, this is my favorite series you've been making Pan. Keep it up, I always love these videos.
I can’t believe I’ve been getting off of school or work to a rebel taxi video for almost a decade.
Yo, I've been looking forward to this video since you announced it. This is gonna be the good stuff.
Yo! You're finally talking about Disgaea! Nice! I do hope in that next DS video you've mentioned, I hope you give a shoutout to The World Ends With You, especially since you mentioned it when you talked about Tetsuya Nomura in Samurai Legend Musashi on your PS2 video
I dont know what a "Disgae" is, but I dont want my parents walking in on me watching that
Good thing the PSP is portable
I´m not a megaman fan but that remake sounds great, it shows a level of effort they just don´t put into games anymore
Great video, can I just say how much I love how your the only RUclipsr that has ad breaks? Every other content creator on this platform just have ads that play mid sentence, thanks for such awesome content.👍
4:25 is that matt mcmuscles in the corner lmao
The Disgaea segment brought back many nostalgic memories 😊
I love how he's playing Spiderman on a PSP. Maybe someone should tell him to review some Lego TV shows in the near future. I'd love a review on every Lego TV show ever made. That will be great for him to do. 36:25 36:45 34:37 30:40
51 minute video? We're in for a treat!!
Pan i finished Disgaea because of you!! Thanks for the recomendation
Really fun vid! Great to see some love for the PSP, it was a major part of my own gaming upbringing.
For real tho, Sony actually had a solid first party lineup on the PSP, especially through Japan Studio. A couple of the studio's games I've played on the console include:
- the Patapon series (1, 2, 3)
- the LocoRoco series (1, 2, Midnight Carnival)
- Ape Quest
- Echoshift
- The Eye of Judgment: Legends
- No Heroes Allowed
- Patchwork Heroes
Also a special shoutout to another great game on the platform that's playable on Steam, Half-Minute Hero!
The joke about your dad falling asleep to ice road truckers really hit home for me
27:39 "Boo I'm a ghost." - RebelTaxi
"I believe in God, but I praise no landlord." LOL 😆
Banger video yet again, Pan. You always bring quality and attitude that's sorely missed from most gaming content these days.
People write off the PSP because of all the ports and whatnot, but honestly the system was so wonderfully weird and unique. I really love it.
I'm just happy there are so many PS2 ports
Makes emulating them so much easier
I can see why Spider-Man 2's soundtrack was too killer. Good for spreading the word about Disgaea! What an underrated JRPG franchise.
When that DS games video arrives with TWEWY finally reviewed on this channel, my life will be complete.
Thanks for mentioning Sonic Rush! That series doesn't get much love.
hell yeeee
31:13 2016 was such a different time.
Battle of the bands feels like it spawned the "There I ruined it" guy.
"Was NetherRealm Studios in charge?" Damn, that hurt lol
Bro what the hell is your channel, I’m like, transported back to the early 2000s, I was freaking out for a second, love this video.
Man could you imagine a game where losing makes it so that you have to equip someone else's furry cosmetic set and it can spread throughout the entire world until everyone is entrapped in involuntary fur suits
Another fantastic video, Pan. Your editing style continues to be amazing and your humor continues to be absolutely insane in the best ways. "I believe in God but I praise no landlord" is just one of the many hilarious quotes in the vid. Keep up the great work and looking forward to the Loki IRL pilot.
42:17 The only thing I heard rn is Rukia from Bleach
ayyyyy caught the Repo: The Genetic Opera reference haha
absolutely loved this video, man!
As some one who used to physically own the Disgaea anime and made his ps2 explode for playing Disgaea 2 religiously for endless hours, i apreciate that Disgaea montage.
Yeeee disgaeas one of my favorite game series! Always a pleasure to see it :D
Surprised LocoRoco and Papaton were left off, but I suppose that's follow-up video material.
Other games to consider for this list would be Archer Maclean's Mercury, Me & My Katamari, and Pac-Man World Rally (that last one has content exclusive to the PSP version, strange to leave it out of the home console versions)
I appreciate showing some light on Disgaea, I love the first two games stories so much.
thx for the INFECTED game cover. Its my fav game and the PSP helped my a lot back in my school days as a strange kid to find some cool friends to hang with and play. Hello to Theo if you reading this!
(+[ ]::)
20:18 Megaman powered up is so underrated but I wouldn’t be surprised if this and Megaman zero maverick hunter on psp could get rereleased along side each other in the future.
Gitaroo-man might be a fun game to look into sometime. I think it was originally a PS2 game but I have the PSP port. Super unique and fun rhythm game
Really enjoyed the segment on Disgaea.
The PSP was so ahead of its time!
Would be cool to see you cover Mad Rat Dead at some point since it was made by the same company who made Disgaea. Very fun rhythm platformer with an incredible art style and a good soundtrack.
Legitimately the few channels left on this hellsite that I actually get excited for when a new video drops.
2:29 the irony about this comment when you realize Ash was almost in MK11
RebelTaxi casually slipping in the great gospel of "Scatman" John automatically confirms what is already known to be true: he's GOATED.
Mega Man Powered Up was crack for my brain back in the day. I spent so much time making custom levels and uploading them when I got the opportunity. The two I remember being proud of was a difficult fire-based obstacle course and a series of 5 levels that progressed through "Atlantis". Another was a prison-break kind of level with an above ground path and an underground path. I still vividly remember loitering in a creepy abandoned two-story shed just to get a good free wi-fi connection to upload stages (such a thing was a rarity in those days lol). Anyway, some damn good times and I wish they'd make a sequel.
ive been in love with disgaea for so long and seeing anyone talk about it makes me happy. really poggers of you
7:23 Hearing this just reminds me that there is a similar issue in Hot Wheels Beat That for the DS where one of the achievements have you use every shortcut in all stages, but one of the stages literally has no short cut so you can't 100% the game and that piss me off as a kid
There's one PSP game that I feel gets none of the credit it deserves. Dead Head Fred. I think most of us chalked it up to "That weird game cover we saw at Blockbuster". But the game is such a fun experience, with brilliant writing and voice acting and ... passable gameplay...
5:58 bro, Bully Maguire basically telling you to touch grass
Mega man Maverick Hunter x was one of my all time fan games as a, i beat it with x twice and with vile and i would use the button lock on there to just listen to the music with earbuds while I did chores and stuff
In the mega man Archie comics instead of choosing from the original or American design they gave him a red bandana that covers his mouth.
32:53 That actually shocked me! I literally paused my Mario kart game because of how dark that was. Holy crap! That horrible! How did that make it into the game?!
"This frame of her death is canonized as a fun trading card" lmao
36:26 I didn't know this game existed, and now I've listened to part of the soundtrack.
Etna and Marie rose really activated the flat feel in a lot of teens back in the day
what's the flat feel?
Ah that intro gave me such a nostalgia vibe.
Miss you so much Screw Attack.
