Is Garbage Pail Kids 8bit RAD-NESS for NES?!

This ain't your typical NES game. "Garbage Pail Kids" looks like it came straight out of the 80s, but it was actually released in 2022! Let's dive into this wacky world of gross-out humor and side-scrolling action.
- What are Garbage Pail Kids?
For those unfamiliar, Garbage Pail Kids were trading cards featuring grotesque caricatures of children. They were hugely popular in the 80s, even though many schools banned them!
- The NES Game Never Made
With the Garbage Pail Kids' peak coinciding with the NES's reign, it seems like a no-brainer that there should have been a game. Well, there wasn't...until now!
- Garbage Pail Kids: Mad Mike and the Quest for Stale Gum
This new NES game is a side-scrolling platformer with four playable Garbage Pail Kids, each with unique abilities. Explore six wacky worlds, from prehistoric jungles to monster-filled Transylvania!
- Authentic 8-bit Experience
The developers did an amazing job capturing the look and feel of an NES game. The graphics are impressive, the music is catchy, and the controls are tight. The difficulty is challenging, but fair.
he digital version comes with some modern perks, like save states, rewind functions, and fancy graphical filters. You also get bonus content like digital manuals and artwork.
- A Love Letter to the 80s
This game is a clear love letter to the late 80s and everything that came with it. It's obvious the developers put their heart and soul into making this a truly fun experience.

This is AWESOME. I just found my collection of OG garbage pale kid's card's. I would LOVE to see someone continue this into a Sega Saturn type game similar to Boogerman or Earth worm Jim. There's so much potential there if taken to that next level of art design and hardware capabilities. It's so awesome to see people making New games in a classic console design style! I hope this catches on with all the different styled console games

Well thank you very much for watching the video. You know The difference between developing for NES or Game Boy and developing for modern system these days is vast chasms of technical differences. The good news is like we have really cool software development kits and game maker middleware for these classic systems That has been helping fuel the trend of independent produce games, but they are some badasses like the guy who I talked to who made Project Blue who coded everything in assembly. And then you compare that to the amount of RAM and power that you have in a Nintendo switch and it's night and day. I wouldn't be surprised if the team that did this considers a follow-up retro game like Sonic Mania but on a modern game console.
What's crazy is that the PlayStation 4 was released 11 years ago. So how long does it have to be before we start to consider that generation "Retro". I totally need to do more videos on Retro games on modern platforms, but in this case it is both on a classic platform and a modern one

I had no idea this game was a modern game I did not grasp the concept at first

[@8bitjoystick]

Well, I think that it is awesome that it was developed for the 8-Bit Nintendo NES and also the Nintendo switch, Xbox series and the PlayStation 4 and 5. But there is an actual cartridge version that works on legit old school 8-bit Nintendo hardware.

Great Video:)

[@8bitjoystick]

Thanks. I actually regret not reviewing it earlier. I actually sat down to play it for a review and had a lot of fun and was kicking myself for not playing it earlier.

[@mahomet69]

@@8bitjoystick I'm gonna buy it as soon as it'll be on ps4 :)

How do you play this on Nintendo switch?

[@8bitjoystick]

It is sold in the Switch E-Shop, you download it and play it like any other Switch software. The built in NES emulator is pretty good www.nintendo.com/us/store/products/garbage-pail-kids-mad-mike-and-the-quest-for-stale-gum-switch/
