Great job, didn’t even realise the Full Metal references. Remember playing this game in the arcades when it came out. Huge game.
Just beat this game. Had to switch to the MVS version in order to beat that final boss, wow that was frustrating, but finally got him. I'm in the process of beating every Neo-Geo game in chronological order, so thanks for this video series.
Great review. You are a brave soul to review this game. It is so intimidating and the surprise boss fights are a nightmare. It's great that you referenced Full Metal Jacket. Yeah my AES copy has the sharpie markings.
@SvperMarioShazam!
The earliest Neo Geo games had a feeling of melancholia and darkness over them, as did many pre-Neo Geo SNK games, a darkness that wouldn't vanish until they became known for fighing games.
Oh boy, reviewing all Neo Geo games in order? That must be the most ambitious project on RUclips! I'm only familiar with the most well-known SNK franchises like Metal Slug and King of Fighters, so I really hope to learn about some unknown gems. Nam-1975 looks definitely like something cool to pick up and play. Anyway, thanks for the review, really enjoyed it, especially the little injections of humor. :)
Your reviews are the best. Very thorough, dense with details and context. I like your dry humor too.
You channel is wonderful! Thank you Sir!
The black ink marker versions were not Europe but came from the Middle East.
I've always felt that explanation makes sense. The inked ones are common in Europe at any rate.
Great video - really looking forward to more of these =D Will check out the rest now.
Damn; I've got to the start and there's none left unwatched. I imagine you guys are busy, but I'd love to see your thoughts on other game going forward, so many left :)
I tend to regard Gallery Shooters as being more like Duck Hunt, where you have no protagonist to protect, just targets. I tend to lump these as simply "Cabal-likes'.
That intro!
"BWAAAAAAAAAAAA!"
Thank you so much for your content. I just purchased a Razer Ripsaw capture card. We’re going to put out footage of retro games. I actually beat Nam 75 in a San Diego bowling alley on ¢25! My brother & I made it to the end but he got killed. Hopefully I’ll be able to duplicate my run. 🤞
M'y first néo géo dream....love it
I mostly remember this game as the one hardly anybody played and was often in the machine to fill space. As soon as they got a new game that isn't a sequel Nam 1975 was the first to be replaced 2nd only to Crossed Swords.
Love these. Watching them in order. Never could get a Neo-Geo, or even see one, but it now I greatly enjoy these videos. I know they take a lot of work. Thank you for putting in the effort!
Glad to hear you're enjoying them. Thanks! Welcome!
Amazing review as usual. I have the unmarked AES carton box.
Muckly looks like a Well known Sega Enemy Boss!!!
He looks more like Gerald Robotnik than his grandson Ivo.
9:55 No and I know the story... I bought games from that seller!!! What happened (and I don't remember the exact year but it was around 2008) someone bought a warehouse in Saudi Arabia. It turned out it was full of Neo Geo games! The seller didn't care about the content but do understood that it had some value (it was not total garbage) but he/she was not into games or really needed the space quick... So listing on eBay appeared for lots of 10 Neo Geo games for $220. Not each, the entire lot. $220. I am not sure I remember all the games but it was Nam-1975, Magician Lord, Trash Rally, Ghost Pilot, Ninja Combat and 5 others I can't remember but all early games. The news was shared on Neo Geo forum and this listing didn't last a long time. Saudi Arabia had European version of the games and heavy censorship. Was is funny, is that they didn't bother putting the black marker on the cover but on the film, on the box. They did the manual too, where you can't undo it... What I discovered when I got the games, is that they came in the official SNK box (and I was sutpid and did not kept it). So it was 10 games per box. They just open the box, remove 9 games and added 9 games from different boxes...
I grew up in France. We see boobs in commercials, in the middle of the day.... It is changing now because of the religious influence but back in the days, any commercial for a body wash or shampoo in France would show a a naked girl in the shower. The camera would not show the v (for obvious reason) but boobs, no problem... And not blurred applied... Not even if the add was on screen at noon! I In France, or in Europe, you can also order a beer at Mc Donald... Censorship is way worse in the US generally speaking (Germany is a problem for violence and it depends if the game is for all Europe or some specific counties - This is why Contra became Probotector etc.).
@@migueldias8546 Censoring female boobs (but not male ones) is kind of weird when you think about it.
@@gumdeo I laugh at religions with a passion. Men things are eternals. Yet. when someone dies, life carries on... At the opposite, the day our Sun will die, life on Earth will disapear in a fraction... But they think they can achieve what even stars can't lol! And let's not even mention mitochondria that destroys the myth of God from the Bible...
It's available on Switch and the port is remarkable.
It's available on all of the consoles. (Switch, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S)
Love this game
Great review 👏
Solid start for the Neo. It just needed some Gunnery Sergeant Hartman quotes to make it complete.
That voice actor in the beginning sounds like the Baseball Stars Professional announcer 😂
Yes, it is Michael Beard. He did basically all English voice work for SNK in the early days of the Neo Geo.
They could have made a sequel, parallel to Capcom's 1942: Nam 1976, Nam 1977, etc. ;-)
Hey, in Cambodia, in those years, the war didn't end. ;-)
Subbed btw =D
7:40 hey those guys in brown pants look a lot like mutation nation s 4th boss, the one that attacks with electricity
theres a revision that lets you jump to unactive player at the final boss, at least on aes
No reference to the magnificent Blood Broothers?!?!
I was just about to post the very same thing!! My brother and I loved that game.
But there is no scene with wagner music, right?
Dude. How many ww 2 games haves cyborgs lasiers and zombies. A lasier is not so far fetched. Just a new type of weapon.
About the "stolen" shots, movies are full of shots, or lines, borrowed from other movies and TV shows. This is called culture, it's part of the fun of it, people use references all the time. See any Quantin Tarrantino movie, many Seinfeld Episodes, they have small portions where they borrow a few lines and camera angles from previous work.
However, if they had simply digitized the images and put them it that would be something completely different.
Otherwise, it's amazing to have that kind of in depth videos for the Neo Geo!
I appreciate that perspective. In this case we have multiple actors and poses from the same movie being practically traced over.
i wonder why snk didnt give the console versions infinite continued and just call it a day, come on, for that price tag at least give the customer some in return
Turning war into a game is insulting/offensive, so adding giant lasers isn't much worse.
Hey DJ,
I was just finishing up watching your video of NAM-1975 on your channel and I was going to post this on my Neo-Geo thread on Atariage.com for you. But you got to me first with the rest of your Neo-Geo works.
I got to say, its really informative and impressive to see this from you. If you like, you're welcome to upload them on my thread and your future work as as well.
Here's my link if you like to browse around to see what the thread offers.

Thank you again DJ. See you soon.
Anthony..
"Almost disrespectful" is an understatement. I'd go with "exploitive and insulting" myself. This thing came out barely 15 years after the fall of Saigon, and unlike the 1987 Full Metal Jacket film it steals from it has nothing serious to say about the war. There were vets from Nam who weren't even 40 yet.
Yes, I didn't want to steer too hard into a sensitive topic, but you are right.
@@BasementBrothers I mean, it's been almost half a century now, and that's a very different thing, but fifteen years when this came out? Too soon, especially if you're going to crib from FMJ, which had its flaws but was at least serious about the subject.
@@richmcgee434 It's a game... You'd probably find a reason to be insulted regardless of what it was.
My old man was there, and he wasn't insulted or offended by this game one single bit.
Wait... this guy just called Call of Duty realistic....
