      I would say a lot of it came directly out of the horror of having the bomb dropped on them twice and WW2 generally. The mutations that occurred out of the radiation poisoning of the bomb. The unstoppable enemy wading in from beyond the sea to level their cities. A hero transforms from their regular selves to something else entirely to stop them.

    THAT'S THE GAME I WAS LOOKING FOR! Gegege no Kitarou, that's the one! Some time ago I wrote a comment on one of your videos asking about a weird Japanese game from my childhood but we couldn't figure out what it was. I've been trying to find that game for over 20 years (not exaggerating) and had pretty much given up on it, but destiny brought me to this video today. I can finally rest in peace, thank you so much for the video.

      The Rs mess it up a bit, but I guess I'm biased because my native language [Portuguese] makes it much easier to pronounce anything in Japanese, even if I can't understand crap. There's definitely a bunch of phonemes in English that are a PITA for me to speak right.

    Weirdest game on SNES is the one where you’re an Italian plumber who gets the power to fly with a weird yellow cape that appears on your back when you touch a feather and who sometimes rides a dinosaur around that eats turtles that you can them spit out at other enemies. The color of the turtle shells have different effects. The red ones let you shoot fire. Crazy, I know!

    Great video but I'm surprised to see you didn't include Umihara Kawase, that game is truly bizarre.

    Zig Zag Cat makes me think of an NES game with a similar concept, Pinball Quest. Here it's breakout, there it's pinball. Anyway, it was a welcome surprise to have a new video on Friday. Thanks!

    Majyuuo is so amazing. I tried to get through the game as just the initial gun toting Belmont clone, and it was super fun

    I like lists, and I hope you eventually do a top twenty or thirty something SN/SF games someday since you have a good idea where so many different obscure games should probably rank.

    "Maybe they make you wonder if you accidentally took something without remembering, and that's really the best endorsement that I can give." Thank you, that was spiritually deep, it helps me precise "goals" as a musician, for example :p.

    That is a good description of the Parodious games. That was among my first thoughts when I first played that game back in the 90s. I was certain one of my friends put something in my drink or the doc game me the wrong adhd pills

    Love your review of YYH: Tokubetsuhen! There is actually 20 characters total, the extra two (Yoko and Young Genkai) are accessible through secret code input at the startup screen. Probably common knowledge, but makes the game just a little more fun!

    Parodius is also one of my favorites, especially when you play co-op. Things can get batshit crazy on the screen sometimes that's why I love Parodius so much. And the music really helps too to stand out from the others.
