What to do next? hmmm
paper mario 64 would be great
Viva piñata would be amazing
WWF No Mercy
Body Harvest or Space Station.
Mischief Makers? Don't hear much about that one. Someone else said Body Harvest too and that's another one I never hear anyone talk about
Imagine being a fan of the N64, and specifically everything Rare did for the console, and finding a channel like this. It's glory itself!
Thank you :)
This game would really benefit from a remake.
It really would
I want to say THANK YOU for putting out the Jet Force content and RareWare content. Jet Force Gemini was THE first game my father ever gifted me as a kid, and it's one of the earliest memories I have growing up that I can remember. To this day, it has been my favorite game. And, after 23+ years, I finally beat it this year and it was one of the best days ever.
Heck yeah! I noticed Jet force Gemini in particular has very little content aside from like let’s plays. I’m trying to make it interesting! Rare on the N64 is my all time fav!
the music in Jet force gemini is so good! A lot of people dont even know about the game
It really is good! I wish more people loved this game
I might have an answer to Lupus' cybernetic enhancements, and it's to do with the character select screen
While the humans Juno and Vela have bio scans showing their brain and nervous systems, Lupus is the only one who shows his skeleton, or at least half of it (for whatever reason, his head doesn't animate to rotate profiles, so it's always from the side). His skeleton and nerve endings shows or seems to imply that he doesn't appear to have front or hind paws, seemingly suggesting that his feet are cybernetic prosthetics that function as his hover engines. The tank upgrade though isn't a full body replacement, it's just grafted around his body. If you look closely at his model, you can see his traces of his real body shrunken underneath to fit in
This video gave me life and just a GLIMMER of hope for JFG 💯‼️
That’s awesome! We need more JFG content in the world!
I think Wizpig, being a wily villain, got his terrorism sanctioned by the intergalactic racing commission. The Jet Force can't intervene in time because they're stuck navigating the red tape, and all their maverick cops who don't play by the rules are off fighting Mizar.
@@featurelength5086 I dig that
This game was indeed a classic. Only i never fully played it and would watch one of my friends mostly. I do remember once in a while, we would plug in a second controller. This would allow me to play as the little flying robot character.
Yeah Floyd! Stuff like that is awesome
@jiggylookback oh it was awesome. Great memories!!!!
The music is banging in Jet Force Gemini.
Even the character select screen is on fire with an epic Imperial March style of bombastic brass band marching.
100% it’s one of Robin Beanland’s best
Regarding the space station blue door. I remember reading somewhere that Rare originally intended for you to proceed to the center of the ship where its core was. You'd find an NPC who'd give you a spaceship part and would show you a cutscene showing how Mizar attacked the space station and how it came to be abandoned. But due to time constraints it was scrapped. I think they moved the spaceship part to another location as a result, or so I figure. It's a shame they didn't get to add that in because I would have loved to see what exactly happened to the space station!!
Right? Me too
Makes sense to me that this blue door was also what Lupus' blue key was for, and when they ran out of time and lost the reason to use it they just patched out the key as well.
@@CyberpunkStudiosLtd Oh yeah! That could very well be!
They’re actually is a second purpose for the fish food. You can use it to distract the maggots aboard the SS Anubis and they will go to eat it.
The fish food is exposed to be used for the final boss as the final boss is allergic to it :P
Great analysis as usual but you should do Perfect Dark next
My biggest jfg mystery is what did the original theme song sounded like considering the final main theme was originally the roman world theme from twelve tales Conker 64 yet jfg released right before twelve tales started transitioning into bad fur day so it makes me wonder since other rare games repurposed scrapped ost for other games(scrapped tracks from project dream even made it into viva pinata for example) and maybe the original jfg theme could have been repurposed for bad fur day after scrapping 90% of the twelve tales ost.
That’s a good question. Now I wonder too.
Shit I got stuck at work a bit longer than expected and missed the premiere. I'm here now though!
No worries! Appreciate you tuning in!
Had Rare not been bought out, I think we would of gotten a peak JFG sequel on the Gamecube. It would been interesting where would stacked with likes of Rachet & Clank.
Yeah dual sticks would have made this game so great
I actually did a 20-30 minute report/presentation for this game when I was in college. Even showed some footage too.
@@ryangreskoviak4889 that’s awesome. What was the report about?
@@jiggylookback pretty much everything from story gameplay, development, to Easter Eggs, Even hidden secrets like the names of levels. For sekhmet, Anubis for Egyptian gods. Even goofy names like eschebone, tawfret, and rith essa which are anagrams of “knob cheese” “wet fart” and “shit arse”.
I also included fan art and even answered questions from audience so ask away if you have any
@@ryangreskoviak4889 haha I’m pretty researched at this point I don’t even know if I have questions lol
With all the decompile/recompile stuff going on, they could do wonders with this game (even just modernise controls).
That would be fantastic!
Still never beaten this game after all these years so the ending is a mystery to me. As long as Floyd makes it okay
…..I can’t say anything. Don’t ever finish the game.
This man’s big brain got CIA concerned.
Seriously good work. If you keep this up, the subs will come.
I really appreciate that! Trying to put these type of videos out every week!
Thanks so much for watching.
Did anyone know you could play as Floyd during the main story by pressing start with a second controller plugged in? Your stationary but get unlimited ammo
Its the only N64 Rareware Game i never played. I read so much comments, that its kind of annoying to complete (rescue these little Koala guys)
I listened to its soundtrack!
Yes it really is annoying to complete, but the soundtrack is in fact banging!
The Jet Force Gemini game looks awesome
Another one worth a play. Though I will say completing it is a slog. It forces you to collect all the tribals which is sort of tough.
@@jiggylookback It sounds tough
I bought a copy for 20 bucks at a flea market took it to my homies 64 great time love mystery videos
What a good find! Totally worth it! Thanks for watching :)
Who thinks we need a remaster and not just a rerelease?
Fish Food is for mines to clear your route.
That’s one use!
Great video! These are all interesting questions! I loved this game when I played it many ages ago, but it is probably the only N64 Rareware game I just couldn't complete as I couldn't find/save all the Tribals! 😭 I really want to give it another go again as the atmosphere and gameplay were quite fun. I remember the controls taking some getting used to on the original N64 controller, though!
Saving all the tribals was an insane feat
@@jiggylookback I honestly don't know how you would manage it without a guide! 😅
Didn’t know this game! Looks fun!
Def go try it!
Nice video and my dude is running 2160p60 video quality
😎👍
Thank you! Yes I always edit in 4k at 60, even if my games aren’t necessarily running that my animations do and I think it makes a big difference!
If we're going off of your map of the rare universe, then this probably takes place right in the perfect dark timeline, but also at the same time. Maybe the beginning of the killer instinct. That's why they are like super soldiers and have the super powers
Could very well be. Since it is on earth. But that diddy Kong racing track would have been preserved really well then! Wish it was a little worn down to confirm my map even more haha
@jiggylookback Well, we already know that the island is magic in nature. What if magic is keeping it from decaying?
@@alexandernix9681 excellent point. Could very well be. Maybe the doors are portals to that specific area almost trapped in time.
It sure is animal abuse - Lupus be abusing tf out them ants
I couldnt get anywhere in this game as a kid lol. So I tried again on Switch as an adult but using a regular controller as an N64 controller is just awkward so I couldnt play any N64 games with any level of control. SO I got a wireless N64 controller for the switch and it works great and tried Jet Force again. Still cant get anywhere lmao, I have lost ALL skill with N64 aiming 😅, too used to modern controls now.
I understand. It really takes a couple levels with the N64 controller to get it all figured out. Really it takes a bit to adjust. I think it took me like 3 worlds to really get the controls down.
It’s a really good game but the controls are a big headache!
They do take some getting used to for sure.
nicely done, as always
Thanks man!! Appreciate it :)
Pretty good video and I need to give this game another chance, cos I was confused by the controls while playing it on an Emulator🤔
Yeah it’s a good game!! If you have it on switch online that’s a good one. Emulation is tricky unless you have a good controller for it. It really comes down to that.
@@jiggylookback I think I'm too oldish and pay the cartridge only😆
I do like jet Force Gemini the only thing I don't like about that game it's a awkward controls it really takes some getting used to i horizontal controls kind of frustrating but but you do get used to him
Yes exactly! I agree
@@jiggylookback yeah still a good game though if they ever remastered this I hope they make it so you can change the controls
This is impressive
Thank you :)
@@jiggylookback can you do mysteries of shovel knight?
@@Cardknight-yk4pc oooo that could be fun. But it’ll take a bit of time. I like the idea tho!
Enjoying the process means respecting the process
Could you do shovel knight dig after treasure trove? If your okay with that?
The absolute worst Rare game on the N64. Even in the 90s I thought it was unplayable. Worse still, it's one of those games in which you need to collect EVERYTHING just to access the final boss.
I agree with the collecting everything to complete the game is trash.
But the worst rare game on 64? Ummm maybe…I don’t think Killer Instinct or Blasts Corps are quite as strong as Gemini, but I guess with N64 titles like DKR and Banjo it is more bottom tier
