    • @vanessaashford9203
      @vanessaashford9203 8 месяцев назад +5

      I like how little thought went into Bubsy being made a bobcat, like he glides (something literally no bobcat does), and is about as fragile as a literal soap bubble (when bobcats are usually though of as pretty scrappy critters), and yet he still constantly tries so hard to reassure you of how cool and sarcastic he is and how he definitely doesn't care that a fall distance of about seven pixels can obliterate him (okay, maybe more like twenty pixels, but you get the idea)

    "Failed Mascots" doesn't seem right. "Forgotten" is more accurate. Eartworm Jim didn't fail. There was enough interest in the character to justify four games and a TV show. It just didn't last.

      apparently, unlike most of these, his game actually got pretty good reviews back in the day, although its extreme difficulty was also apparently noted. Might be part of why the game is so expensive now (which Vinny is right, that can definitely just be due to a physical game's rarity, but demand helps as well). It was developed by ASCII Corp, who are also known for RPG Maker, and the MSX computer

    A MOMENT OF PEDANTRY:
    Dynamite Headdy wasn't meant to be a "mascot" character per-se (at least, to the extent of most of these others). Treasure at the time had a stringent "No Sequels" policy (which the idea of a sequel is mocked in the bonus ending!), so technically regardless of the game catching on or not in the public eye, there was no way it was gonna "fail".

    • @AwesomeAceZ
      @AwesomeAceZ 4 года назад +5

      Thank you for informing me of this! I've also learned that Decap Attack was a reskined game from Japan. I thought that Dynamite Headdy and Chuck D. Head were Sega mascots because they're often included in Sega Genesis compilations.

    • @warbossgegguz679

    • @DmitriiGlandarius
      @DmitriiGlandarius 4 года назад +2

      Most of these games don't have mascots, just characters. They don't have a massive trademark behind them to push and often only have one game. The more fitting title would be "failed platformers" or "terrible and mediocre 16 bit games"

      Well sure but a number of those aren't really failed, just products of their time. Gex, Ty, Glover, Jazz Jackrabbit, they had their time and place. I believe the first of those three reached greatest hits status and Jazz Jackrabbit is well known to PC platforming communities. Still interesting games to look at nonetheless.

James Pond was actually a relative success - it had 3 games and I think Olympics Games-style althetics spin-off.
