Fun Fact; those butlers were actually featured In the trailer but unfortunately got scrapped for the full movie and ended up here Instead made for the game.
thanks for the shoutout! i'm glad this game is getting more eyes on it again, even if people are severely underrating it. one thing i need to correct though: the emulator run was my first ever run back four years ago, and as such it is very outdated. i have put up several other runs of the game doing it on console, and the categories are separated due to load time differences. now we have a sub-50 minute run, and i plan on pushing further. currently it is possible to go below sub-48 minutes in real time attack and even below 43 or 42 minutes in a tool-assisted run the game has gotten even more traction recently due to a bounty for a skip (still up for grabs) and it has been featured in a speedrun marathon, specifically Licenseathon. we'll be returning to that specific marathon again this year anyway, i'm always open to enlighten you or anyone else about how this game is a masterpiece. thanks again!
Can't believe you missed the most important fact about the Simple Series games - you hold second place in the speed run for one of them! The Sniper 2 is part of the Simple Series in Japan!
This game deserved better ratings than it got, and it's really more like one of the "Middlingest Games Ever". It was clearly far more playable than most others featured in this series.
I just woke up, watching this video and already having a great time drinking coffee. Then at 13:56 - a prompt to press the A button popped up in the game. And my half away genius self tapped the A button on my screen thinking it would dismiss it Lmao - good morning from Los Angeles
I worked on this game as a QA Tester. The Jammy Dodger levels were simply the worst. If you went too fast and the boat sunk a bit too far into the water the game would immediately crash. I'm not sure if things have changed for Nintendo but when the GameCube test kit would crash it would make a very obnoxious sound and everyone in the room would know you crashed the game. And this was one of the better games I tested while working for D3.
That's really cool. Surprised no one has seen you in the comments section. I have played the game all the way through and it's such a so bad it's good game and I still play it for giggles.
I managed to finish it once. After you finish the main story, you get even more missions to complete. With all of them being super generic. I don't really think it's worth finishing them.
I played this game as a kid and remembered it being fun, now it looks pretty rough but playable. A game I didn’t like as a kid and was bad then and now is called Anubis 2 for the Wii. It’s arguable one of the worst games of all time if you want to check it out.
We have the same sort of thing here - two topping medium pizza, collection only for £5.99! Or upgrade to large for £2 more. Someone needs to inform Ben and Peter about this!
I still have this game. It was fine. The very begging levels are pretty bad, but the game was fine after that. I particularly enjoyed the castle destruction mini game.
Honestly, it's disgusting. They've been pushing this s* through fear tactics (James won't get paid, never gets old) for way too long. It's like saying "you'll dive into that cesspool if you really love us. C'mon. We won't stop asking until you do. There's money down there for us! We'll scrape off the s* and pretend it's clean" It's insulting toward their viewers tbh. You already know it's a wretched place, but that doesn't matter as long as they give you money for throwing your fans at them.
I haven't had a Facebook account in years and I'm never going back to any social media. Their patreon should be what they are directing people towards, not a genocide-facilitating dystopic mega corporation.
I think the sword thing is supposed to be one of those toothpicks that are often stuck into little pieces of cheese and such on hors d'oeuvre platters. You can tell from that shiny colored wrap at the end that they always have on them for some reason. Maybe as a warning flag letting you know not to pick up the cheese with your dirty fingers before absently biting down on the unadorned toothpick. Doesn't it suck when you try to twirl a toothpick in your mouth and it gets jammed between the roof and your tongue so well that you can't spit it out and you end up having to jam your fingers in there to get it out? Probably surrounded by bemused people watching your panicked struggle.
This was a game I played as a kid, but I never made it passed when you first make it to the sewer. My tiny brain just couldn’t piece together where to go and saw no indication of where to go. So hopefully some people figured it out and enjoyed it, because I never could.
Just started watching the video, and think it might be worth noting that you can actually get GC controller > USB adaptors very cheap, and I'm sure even third party GC-style controllers with USB connectors already. I have one of the adaptors and it works very well. If you're gonna do a lot of GC games it's worth having.
At 34:25, the subtitle for the spider death is written in Portuguese for some reason. It translates to "This is painful". I can't hear what the spider says clearly but I think the audio is in English.
I actually played this game, strangely enough it was possibly made before the movie since it has the hamster butlers that got removed from before the movie was animated
JIMMY! Wow, a Triple Jump/Rifftrax crossover. (The Rifftrax -- an offshoot of Mystery Science Theatre 3000 -- used the safety short featured here to set the stage for their mocking of "The Five Doctors.")
We have Little Caesars in America gentleman. It's $5 a pizza but it's crap. And that's literally what you'll be doing after you eat said pizza. You guys aren't the only ones that can make funny puns. Take care Ben and Peter from America.
Were those actual BBC PSA (circa 1980s?) clips about dangers of electricity ect? If so, wow! Over here in Canada you might see the kite electrify and leave it to kids in imagination, not showing the end result!
Thanks for making me crack up ,all day long ,much love to the triple jump trio Thanks ❤this may have been before Ashton joined but she showed up at just the right time, reprobates 🤣🤣
dominos is cheap here (california) but no one I know eats there very often since most towns have a bunch of small pizza shops, some are expensive but they are all good lol
Impressed they waited 24 minutes to inject politics into a kids game, especially given the subject matter, and we'll just leave the glaring hypocrisy for now 😂
No, I mean "hey, if you want Dominoes to bring you a pizza AND some McDonald's, we'll drive thru for you!" was the advertising pitch for some stores locally.
Fun Fact; those butlers were actually featured In the trailer but unfortunately got scrapped for the full movie and ended up here Instead made for the game.
I feel like all the digital assets where designed for a game and just polished into a movie…
so these are stills from that early version
Hmm interesting
Are we going to ignore their names being Gilbert and Sullivan?
@@EssexAggiegrad2011 They are the very model of a modern hamster butler!

Fellow rat here, "worst games ever" is an unearned label for sure
Can't believe you missed the most important fact about the Simple Series games - you hold second place in the speed run for one of them! The Sniper 2 is part of the Simple Series in Japan!
Simple series its like 98% the worst games ever
Feel honoured to have a game we sent in played, cheers guys, keep up the increbidle work👍🏻
3:15 - Read the health and s- DAMNIT. I never have TIME FOR THAT.

Thanks for the trip down "stuff that will kill you as a British kid"
"This one's called a rook you say? Whys that..does it nest in trees"
I know that reference Peter.. 😁
He also made a "I am bereft of ribs" reference in the latest podcast. He has good taste in comedy.
The perfect hangover cure after watching Wrestlemania and drinking for 2 nights in a row 👍

“This Tory rat…” killed me 😂😭
Omg, the like counter was at 999 :D and my OCD was happy when I liked the video.

It was the game of my childhood, it’s so strange seeing gameplay today it’s like a fever dream that reveals itself to be true 👀
Flushed Away was brilliant, one of my fav films when I was round my Grandparents’ house
I remember playing this game as a kid😂
So glad I could see this episode of Shit Games for Wankers early on. Love this series.
It's still shit games for wankers. It'll always be shit games for wankers, no matter what the advertisers say.
Gilbert and Sullivan remind me of Matt Lucas and Matt Lucas with a David Niven mustache, only somehow more tolerable.
I remember renting this from Blockbuster... I hated every second of it, stick with the movie folks.
Worse than most rat based movie tie in ps2 games.
This is a game that I remember playing when I was younger.
Could never finish it, though.
huh, nice
I managed to finish it once. After you finish the main story, you get even more missions to complete. With all of them being super generic. I don't really think it's worth finishing them.
@@TeamBlueToad Yeah that's part of why I didn't finish it, the generic in-between story missions.
17:36 Sounds akin to Korean restaurants in the US.
Also, decimalized pennies would've probably made more sense in-game.
I remember LOVING this game as a kid. It's quite weird seeing how shitty it looks as an adult. Lol
Indeed
Oh, Triplejump has a Facebook page, that's news to me!!
5:44 In the Italian version of the movie, Roddy is voiced by Daniel Craig's voice actor, so it makes sense ahahahaha.
Huh?😅
Never played this or seen the movie. For a Gamecube game it looks pretty decent though. (The visuals that is. It didn't look very fun to play.)
God, the Robbie Williams/Begimops, I am DYING. 😂💀

My local dominion's has a 6.99 carry out deal. They've had it since they opened 6 months ago. I live in Florida.
The lord of your local dominion is merciful indeed.
Brits: "Pizza here in the UK costs more than in the US"
Americans: "pIzZa iS cHeApEr hErE"

Should do "two worlds ". My wife surprised me with that, and I normally never care about the game......but I wanted to bring it back to the pawn shop
telling people to get a Facebook account is like telling someone to just get herpes.

I had the game for the GameCube as a kid, absolutely adored it but never finished it😭 this was like a great nostalgia trip
I like the fact that you included mario and sonic at the start of the video
I’ve never heard of this masterpiece, lucky you getting to play
Iron bumblepiss had me laughing way too hard for way too long. Even started laughing again as I typed this 😂
I remember watching this movie as a kid in theaters. Either this or Ratatouille.
Two very different Rodent movies.
KuroAsterisk holds the new speedrun record with a time of 39m 35s 170ms
Literally the only channel I have the bell turned on for
We wish we could flush this game away.
At 34:25, the subtitle for the spider death is written in Portuguese for some reason. It translates to "This is painful". I can't hear what the spider says clearly but I think the audio is in English.
I'm an American and I deeply apologize for how expensive pizzas are in the UK. That's just insane
how is that our fault?
Lol the basic attack is literally like kingdom hearts basic 3 combo
God I love the movie but now I'm glad I chose not to rent this game from the video store when I had the chance 😅
I forgot this movie exists, let alone the game.
Jesus! Those old mini horror films, aka: public safety films, are older than me, and that's saying something.
I actually played this game, strangely enough it was possibly made before the movie since it has the hamster butlers that got removed from before the movie was animated

Niagara Falls, NY here.. pizza here is 15-20 a pop. There's at least 8 pizza places(private owned)for a population of 50,000.
Now 53k subs ahead of Hat Gaming ;)
🎩♥
No matter how poorly this game did, the movie is excellent. One of my favourites from them.

Not sure if I should blame Blast or TripleJump for me losing the ability to pronounce “button” correctly.
Thanks for making me crack up ,all day long ,much love to the triple jump trio
Thanks ❤this may have been before Ashton joined but she showed up at just the right time, reprobates 🤣🤣
this episode was chalk full of laughs
Matthew Catshtons is my favourite TJ presenter.
The main character reminds me of Ed milliband
Btw I like Ed milliband just thought it was funny
Lol I'm pretty sure the trophy said 1st place
Also I don't like how the butler fight chess board is wrong
Sid sounds like a classier Mrs Sluggy Slugworth
I keep thinking Brian Bumblepiss is meant to be Pacitti ffs
15:30 got a little interstellar there for a moment...
Well I’m sold, off to the quarry!
Who'd win in paw to paw combat? Roddy from Flushed Away or Remy from Ratatouille?
Have you seen my dad?
Maybe it's just pure nostalgia goggles, but I loved this game as a kid
dominos is cheap here (california) but no one I know eats there very often since most towns have a bunch of small pizza shops, some are expensive but they are all good lol
Speak of the devil I got a dominos ad right after the pizza talk. $5 AUD each if you're curious.
You hadn’t seen it, it’s so memeable
love your videos guys
why won't you say anything about the spiders? 32:54
Is the main intro sprite based off Baraduke? That's what it reminds me of
I think the guy on the tv is supposed to be Trevor McDonald?
I own this game! Right now. I can touch it!!
How did Crash Bandicoot end up in the developer intros? Thought he was PlayStation exclusive and his developer was Naughty Dog 🤔
I wish Dominos was really as cheap as Ben said... Little Ceasars is cheap but also makes you shit your brains out (that might just be me).
Why not boost the internal resolution in Dolphin settings?
“1st Place” 16:33
James' editing improves fortnight after fortnight! Like the Facebook page so they can pay the man!
Day 8 of requesting every N64 release title ranked from worst to best
No it isn't! I liked that game as a kid!
That is what pizza costs here too lol
Something under will pull you in.
Who are the multiplayer characters in the game?
Impressed they waited 24 minutes to inject politics into a kids game, especially given the subject matter, and we'll just leave the glaring hypocrisy for now 😂
Peter Bang on w 2!! Percentages I'm impressed
Hamsters would be my best guess!
You mean UK Dominoes hasn't turned into their own DoorDash too?
You mean pizza delivery drivers?? Those have been around alot longer than Door Dash...
No, I mean "hey, if you want Dominoes to bring you a pizza AND some McDonald's, we'll drive thru for you!" was the advertising pitch for some stores locally.
I really like the film, Flushed away - shame to see the game was so bad!
14:44 where I left off
I think 'nezumi' can mean mouse or rat in japanese
Jesus I remember playing this game
I'm slightly upset by the R@t logo. The @ symbol means there's no need for the t. See what I mean, m8?
Aw man. I just bought this
Millicent Bystander, Stull funny.
Kiss me, I'm Jenny Greenteeth.
Graphics are great for PS2 amazing even
