      I love the original story. It's just so stupid that it's brilliant. NES games were severely limited in graphics so anything serious would just look corny and silly so they just kind of went with that. The story is super corny and silly so it matches the graphics perfectly.

      It's one of my top nes games that I still play till this day, but it gets it's respect especially by the true hardcore gamers, why u think they made blaster master zero? Now here's hoping they make another game but with a more mature, gritty darker game instead of the 8 bit graphics.

    One of the best of the NES era. I think a lot of people who didn't grow up with NES games can't appreciate how ahead of its time this was in many ways.
    Also, that overhead Sophia gameplay looks like it has great potential. I hope they try that again in a future game, because with better controls and level design I could see that being really fun.

    And now, years later we got a crazy amazing trilogy out of it. It'd be fun to see you guys revisit this now that the trilogy is complete.

    • @justanotheryoutubechannel
      @justanotheryoutubechannel 5 лет назад +2

      You know why? Because it’s a 2D game without pixel art graphics or 2.5/3D models and environments. Think about it, Newgrounds and Flash games don’t rely on pixel art, but also aren’t 3D in any way. Instead, they use graphics like Overdrive. Therefore, Overdrive looks like a flash game because it tried to do the 2D style with higher resolution graphics.
      While it’s still not a good game, it doesn’t look like a flash game because it’s bad, it looks like one due to graphical style.

    • @justanotheryoutubechannel
      @justanotheryoutubechannel 5 лет назад +1

      Brian Donegan I never said they couldn’t, I just said they’re rare and the main examples of games using that style I could think of were flash games. I actually don’t even really like the 3D Models in 2.5D environments look that much.
      The Wonder Boy remakes are amazing too by the way, I love the artwork.

    The people behind Sunsoft games in the NES days were outright masters of the hardware. It is a shame that Sunsoft isn't still making games today, Blaster Master Zero is a game they contracted out. I will be buying Zero on my Switch as soon as eShop goes back up. Also Blaster Master Blasting Again is imo an underrated game, I had a lot of fun with it and though it had some quirky issues, I felt was a pretty good 3D game for the series.

I also have the Wii War version and you nailed it also about the poor style of the visuals. I will be picking up Zero for my 3DS.

It is defiantly my favorite game for the NES next to the original LoZ. I did not care for the Sega,Game Boy Color and Wii interpretations. Blaster Master Blasting Again is actually a decent game. I loved it. Blaster Master Zero is fantastic! It was the second game I bought for the Switch next to LoZ Breath of The WIld. I would indeed like to see a modern 3D take on Blaster Master. I just don't want it to suck.

    Another interesting episode, even though it's a series I'm not very familiar with.

    Of all the NES games I played and I love older games I'd never seen this game before. So I seen this video and just bought blaster master zero straight away. Love it :)

    I like how John considers a lack of respawning in Nes games a 'nice little feature'. One of the reasons the Nes is overrated is the constant respawning of enemies.

    23:30 my guess is that they're emulating the NES soundchip, but not the Sunsoft chip inside the cartridge, and the game _can_ run without that chip, so its still using the same channels and relatively the same effect, but with not nearly as high of quality.

      David Somoza Domenech Did you watch the video? The guy said Blaster Master Zero runs at 30 on 3DS.

    The video quality of these old games looks a lot better than anything I've seen before. Is the NES footage being captured from the Analogue NT mini? Why does this look sooo much better than any other HD video of NES games?

    • @dark1x
      @dark1x 7 лет назад +4

      EJ Crough Yep, it's from an Analogue Nt via HDMI. The other consoles were captured using the Framemeister as usual.
