Oh wow that was me who sent that list. I honestly wasn't expecting it to actually happened. I haven't watched the stream but for those who did. Hope the list wasn't too bad. I won't lie I probably could have done a better job of the list. So if I ever do another for something else I'll try to do better next time.
1:03:19 to answer this question, if anyone is actually curious, the first magical girl anime was Sally the Witch, which originally aired from 1966 to 1968. if i remember correctly, princess knight, mentioned by someone in chat later, is considered a foundation of the genre, but not part of it.
Which is sort of interesting because the manga Himitsu no Akko-chan predates Mahoutsukai Sari, but the animated adaptation of the latter came out a few years earlier. Why yes, I do like the magical girl genre how did you know? Sailor Moon was actually my gateway drug in the 90s.
52:41 I can say Alisia Dragoon is obscure for newer audiences, as it was not re-released until 2019 through MD / Genesis Mini. Not even a re-release on ProjectEGG was made, which includes several Game Arts games to be purchased.
Alcahest is actually kind of really great, I had never heard of it before a couple years ago before I downloaded this rom megapack and it was near the front alphabetically. I booted it up and played for a while and I was really surprised by the quality. One of those JP-only hidden gems
Some would say Sally the Witch is the first mahou shoujo anime. It is notorious for how, despite not being lost media, it has no decent quality media as it was only digitized from damaged film, so the only way to watch it is filled with mold spots and damage.
AW MAN I STOPPED WATCHING THE STREAM BEFORE VIN GOT TO THE SAILOR MOON GAME AND I HAVE HISTORY OF MAGICAL GIRLS INFO I COULD HAVE SHARED the magical girl genre was actually inspired by the show bewitched, and thus started with cute witch girls, specifically himitsu no akko-chan (first magical girl manga) and sally the witch (first magical girl anime) altho princess knight is considered a prototype of the genre, i believe theres no actual magic in it
I totally played Mega Bomberman's original on my relative's PC Engine. I had no idea it got a Genesis port. The port's music is like sacrilege to my memories. This is a heck of a pack. Several of the games got new games or rereleases on newer consoles (Cotton 100%, The Ninja Saviors, Umihara Kawase). I still can't believe how good the Sailor Moon games were like the GB action platformer one. 32:17 - Beh!
Ooh, MUSHA? Hell yeah. Good game, and it has significant history in the Puyo Puyo series, since the first game borrowed sounds from that game, and then subsequent games used those same sounds and remixed them, even when the series jumped to a new company. They're still there to this day, and even games like Puyo Puyo Tetris 2 are unintentionally making MUSHA references with those classic sounds.
the Cotton series was recently revived with a reboot and a full fledged sequel with Umihara Kawase as a guest character! meanwhile, the series Musha spun off from (Aleste) also got blessed with a new title for the Sega Game Gear in 2020
Aww, that made me sad when Vinny skipped past the Sailor Moon theme song, because it's actually a genuinely great song IMO, and very catchy lol (though I don't necessarily blame him for skipping it, in his context, of course)
1:04:53 and yet ive heard the REAL possible progenitor to magical girls may be the old sitcom Bewitched, as that show predates the first known magical girls and it did air in Japan back then. i recall the site i read this at, but i dont know if they keep their stuff archived at all. cuz it was like YEARS ago i read that little article.
Hopefully we end up finding it. That sure would be great compared to that time when Vinny accidentally caused a lost media search for a non-existent Evil Farming game during an EDF stream. Edit: It was Joel.
Honestly really nice to see that Genesis/SNES games was the last segment of this Sunday Stream. Makes it a good palate cleanser after what we just witnessed in the first two segments of the stream.
Oh shit, he played Ghost Sweeper! That's a game I enjoyed a whole lot! It is simple, but it's fun and has decent variety for how basic the gameplay is. I did a review of it, if anyone is curious about the game as a whole lol I love these segments because it's always fun to discover new obscure games I might not have known about to play/review, ooor recognize games I HAVE played and smile at Vinny's reaction.
These were mostly fan translations of Japanese exclusives right? I hope Vinny gets to try old procedurally generated games like dark cloud and Baroque. Feels like there has been a huge boom of translations being finished in the past year, which is great for Sunday.
Old games used fullscreen flashing more because old televisions would tend to dim the image a little bit during such sequences. TVs weren't designed to dim as a safeguard against strobe effects or anything, it just looked better. Maybe about 70% as intense. If you're playing old games on an emulator and an HDTV or flatscreen monitor, you're seeing the graphics in a more basic state, somewhat under the hood. A lot of the tricks that made old games look fantastic are just plain lost on modern screens, and visual effects like fullscreen flashing, or flickering transparency, appear unpalatable as a result.
By the way, this sort of screen hardware difference is why 80's and 90's anime sometimes looks like it runs at 5 frames per second, especially in fast-moving action sequences where the camera pans across a wide or tall image. When you watch those sequences on legit broadcast format for CRT, those animation frames are handled in a very particular way that delays the top and bottom half of each frame just a bit, blending them to appear _molto bene_ silky smooth. It's a rad trick that looks wonderful. To my knowledge, not many publishers bother to preserve this technique when reprinting old media, because broadcast hardware used to handle the process automatically, and it's costly to reproduce by hand. So they just copy a non-blended frame and paste it over anything blended, then copy the next non-blended frame and paste that one, etc., sacrificing most of the sequence and reducing the visuals to a slideshow. Trigun uses this A LOT, and the cheap Funimation transfer looks like dog water because tons of unique frames are straight-up deleted. If you want to watch the source material for these old SNES and Genesis anime games, you might find a lazy port instead of the real thing, and miss out on some cool animation.
@@mechadeka Oh, no way. There's zero reason to bring the effect over into digital transfer. It's made for broadcast CRT. I'm saying publishers will sell a product without ensuring the delayed frames are manually reassembled, because copy-paste is cheaper and faster. It's a pretty good indicator that the release is for rights and branding rather than quality, so you can skip it. Other releases (if they exist) may represent the work more faithfully.
45:13 HOLY SHIT, I remember this game! I was like fucking 7 years old or something when I first saw footage of it. We used to go to this former family friend's house and every time I'd go watch her son and my brother play some odd games on their PC. Fuck! I tried finding for help on r/tipofmyjoystick, but nothing came up. Thank you for making me remember!
i actually have the synesthesia that mixes smells with other senses and that first music smells like when a plastic electrical appliance heats up. the "wet rusty metal" actually smells like how one of those red painted bars of rebar looks, so you were pretty on the nose.
I'm glad that Vinny actually agrees Twin Bee isn't too obscure. I loved both Pop'n and Rainbow Bell Adventures as a child with my brother as they were excellent for 2-player.
Man, Vinny can kinda be impatient. I know he does a lot of games per stream, but he only played MUSHA for 5 minutes. "The game hasn't changed in 30 seconds, time to switch to the next game" idk, maybe at some point he can dedicate a full stream or something to some of these big Genesis releases that he missed out on.
2:48 The music from this segment sounds a lot like the trumpet section of Ocarina of Time's Hyrule Field theme, I wonder if Koji Kondo was inspired by it at all
35:57 As a kid I randomly picked Operation: Logic Bomb to rent one day, having never heard of it before, and it's one of the best such finds I stumbled over back then. Repetitive and just like a million other games in retrospect, I guess, but something about the gameplay and music numbed my mind in a bizarrely comforting way. The L/R aim lock combined with the ricochet upgrade is especially satisfying. I'm usually not one for arcadey stuff, but sometimes it's nice to just zone out and blast through a game like that.
Battlemania Daiginjou is a good game. also the only way to have mania "flip" is to set up in the options 8 way shooting. by default it's not till you get Mania's partner that C does anything on the default controls. Pressing it "flips" Mania's partner as she by default shoots BEHIND you. Which is useful as the later stages spawn enemies behind you.
I'm surprised Vinny's not more familiar with Sailor Moon. He doesn't seem to be a super big anime fan but Sailor Moon was pretty popular when I was a kid and he's not much older than me.
This sounds dumb but these give me a strange nostalgia. As if I lived in japan in my past life or something and I was an adult playing these in the city on a chill night.
Hey, I have that Bomberman game on Genesis/MegaDrive! Also, each Louie (the kangaroo thing Bomberman is seen riding on the title screen) has an unique ability like jumping over obstacles(like bombs), kicking bombs and dashing Forgot if each ability was assignated to a specific color like the Yoshi in Super Mario World or if it was random
There's another obscure genesis game called "cyborg justice". It tried to mesh together arcade beat 'em up with 2d fight controls after your character "locks on" to an enemy. Aside from the crunchy penis music, it's unique for it's time because you can take apart your opponent. You can tear their arm off and attach it as your own, or throw it back at them. You can tear their torso off and assimilate it for life and lives. Or you can even take their legs afterwords. You can even reassemble a downed enemy just to beat on them again.
Cyborg Justice is metal as fuck I love that game. Great sound design too, it makes really creative use of the crusty Genesis sound chip for it's music and sfx
Märchen Adventure Cotton 100% gets really weird and kinda creepy later on, one of the bosses you fight start out as a cute doll and then turns out to be a giant skeleton and there's this thing with your mirror image coming alive that gets a really long buildup. EDIT: Oh, this is a translated version? The original infamously called the "barrier" spell "BARRIOR" (and also never got translated to english...)
Some mentioned Psycho Dream being on the Switch and how many other obscure games appear on the service. It's debatable how "obscure" they are after being put in the spotlight, but I say they remain obscure because no one actually bothers to play them as part of NSO in the same way a lot of GamePass games aren't played. But the reality is that those obscure games aren't being added to NSO because Nintendo thinks they are cool games and want to introduce people to things beyond Super Mario and Zelda, *no, they get added because their licenses are so cheap* since their rights jump around from one defunct publisher to another
That was probably the biggest regret I had was putting a couple of games that are on that service. I think I did point it out for one of them in the notes. I kind of just assumed most people forget they're on there.
@@angel_arle Put Game Freak's "Bushi Seiryuuden: Futari no Yuusha" next time, got a translation patch last year and no one noticed 💀(I know there was a DYKG video about it, but doesn't removes the fact no one has actually played that game when they totally should)
Always love seeing games that maybe weren't as in the spotlight as others. The only one here I actually knew of was the Sailor Moon game which I thought was cool (I'm a fan of the show lol) Operation Logic Bomb was also a nice surprise I'd be down for playing that one. All in all I think a lot of these had somewhat potential but maybe weren't fully polished to a degree. Thank you though Vin, really enjoyed watching these.
17:10 I agree with Vinny on that one. The photosensitivity was a big issue in the 90s. I heard about the story of a 14-year old british kid named Jasminder Bassi being found dead after suffering those symptoms while going back to his house after hours of playing Mario games. This death led to a worldwide moral panicking thanks to the cancer that is The Sun newspaper publishing their article, even though Bassi has a long history of epilepsy before this. Thankfully, this problem no longer exists thanks to not just advanced Televisions, but the infamous Electric Soldier Porygon episode as well.
With that Syd Valis game, I wasn't sure until Vinny fell into the pit and it just spat the girl back out, but I think that game is meant to be a literal babby game. An easy game for little girls who want an action game like their brothers play or something, I'll bet that's how they marketed it. Either that or it's something that was originally going to wind up on a handheld.

Wasn't expecting Vinny to play Ghost Sweeper of all things, so I give you big props for including that, and a few other titles I enjoy/adore!
Nah man lot of cool stuff I want to check out on that list! thanks for making it and sending it to Vinny!
you've done good
It's a good list.
By having Ninja Warriors Again in your list, it already makes you a hero in my eyes brotha. 👍
I love dowloading rom lists of obscure foreign games and then trying to play a bunch of them in a row trying to figure out what the hell is going on

Why yes, I do like the magical girl genre how did you know? Sailor Moon was actually my gateway drug in the 90s.
That rabbit hole led me to Aum Shinrikyo, the Japanese doomsday cult.
Thanks? lol
"In the name of the moon, I punish you"
*Brutally headbutts a guy before throwing him out a 20 story window*

30 seconds in and I know this is gonna be a good video.

52:41 I can say Alisia Dragoon is obscure for newer audiences, as it was not re-released until 2019 through MD / Genesis Mini. Not even a re-release on ProjectEGG was made, which includes several Game Arts games to be purchased.
Thanks to Vinny and the chad that submitted this pack. I checked out some of these games myself after this and they're absolutely great.
**Sees Vinny play SNES and Genesis**
You got my attention Vinny, I will watch every bit of these.
Alcahest is actually kind of really great, I had never heard of it before a couple years ago before I downloaded this rom megapack and it was near the front alphabetically. I booted it up and played for a while and I was really surprised by the quality. One of those JP-only hidden gems
1:14:05 Fun fact. The same artist who made this manga also made Golden Boy. And it's also as ecchi as Golden Boy.
Some would say Sally the Witch is the first mahou shoujo anime.
It is notorious for how, despite not being lost media, it has no decent quality media as it was only digitized from damaged film, so the only way to watch it is filled with mold spots and damage.
AW MAN I STOPPED WATCHING THE STREAM BEFORE VIN GOT TO THE SAILOR MOON GAME AND I HAVE HISTORY OF MAGICAL GIRLS INFO I COULD HAVE SHARED
the magical girl genre was actually inspired by the show bewitched, and thus started with cute witch girls, specifically himitsu no akko-chan (first magical girl manga) and sally the witch (first magical girl anime)
altho princess knight is considered a prototype of the genre, i believe theres no actual magic in it
For a second I thought you were talking about "Charmed," and I was very confused.
This whole segment was pretty much "Oops! All Anime" and I'm all for it
That's what happens when games are obscure and made in Japan
@1:10:45 lol Vinny agrees, somewhat
I've been feeling nostalgic for the segments like this in May and June so cool to see something reminiscent of it.
Ghostsweeper Mikami AND Magical Taruruuto-kun? Cotton? Valis? This whole collection is pretty great!
Hearing Alcahest use MIDI instruments that it undeniably shares with Kirby Super Star and Dream Land 3 is just utterly delightful.
I totally played Mega Bomberman's original on my relative's PC Engine. I had no idea it got a Genesis port. The port's music is like sacrilege to my memories.

@59:12 for some JAMS
As someone who played _all_ of the SNES roms around 2003, it's good to see these games again. Even if I only played most of them for like ten minutes.
The thing I am most surprised by is that the collection creator took enough time to get fan translated versions of JP only games.
Thank you as always, the verity streams are a big favorite of mine
They really weren't kidding about the El Viento plot, the final boss is Hastur, and the whole series centers around summoning him.
Idk what it is but I just love seeing pixelated anime art from the SNES or Genesis era
The fact that Vinny sat through the entire opening crawl of Ninja Warriors Again only to skip the epic intro sequence makes me unreasonably angry.
Yooo my friend is Angel arle. She’s a bit timid but this is just amazing she got her name said on stream
That GS Mikami game is a bretty neat Castlevania clone, it's even got music by the original composer.

I'm glad that Vinny actually agrees Twin Bee isn't too obscure. I loved both Pop'n and Rainbow Bell Adventures as a child with my brother as they were excellent for 2-player.
1:11:30 the music has a turbo Graphix 16 type of feeling
Damn, Trouble Shooter, Ghost Sweeper Mikami, Twinbee and Musha? This is gonna be a great watch.
I remember playing Syd of Valis. It’s kinda clunky and the music is odd but it was still fun.
(Oh and he played Umihara and Twinbee. That’s cool!)
Man, Vinny can kinda be impatient. I know he does a lot of games per stream, but he only played MUSHA for 5 minutes. "The game hasn't changed in 30 seconds, time to switch to the next game"
idk, maybe at some point he can dedicate a full stream or something to some of these big Genesis releases that he missed out on.

Apparently Alcahest uses the Kirby Super Star soundfont, as is explained by Vinny.
Same composer (Jun Ishikawa)
Märchen Adventure Cotton 100% gets really weird and kinda creepy later on, one of the bosses you fight start out as a cute doll and then turns out to be a giant skeleton and there's this thing with your mirror image coming alive that gets a really long buildup.
EDIT: Oh, this is a translated version? The original infamously called the "barrier" spell "BARRIOR" (and also never got translated to english...)
Umihara looks good but indeed, that UI almost ruins it.
Ah yes, put all the anime in the thumbnail
Some mentioned Psycho Dream being on the Switch and how many other obscure games appear on the service. It's debatable how "obscure" they are after being put in the spotlight, but I say they remain obscure because no one actually bothers to play them as part of NSO in the same way a lot of GamePass games aren't played. But the reality is that those obscure games aren't being added to NSO because Nintendo thinks they are cool games and want to introduce people to things beyond Super Mario and Zelda, *no, they get added because their licenses are so cheap* since their rights jump around from one defunct publisher to another
That was probably the biggest regret I had was putting a couple of games that are on that service. I think I did point it out for one of them in the notes. I kind of just assumed most people forget they're on there.
@@angel_arle Put Game Freak's "Bushi Seiryuuden: Futari no Yuusha" next time, got a translation patch last year and no one noticed 💀(I know there was a DYKG video about it, but doesn't removes the fact no one has actually played that game when they totally should)
Vinny really should play all of Battle Mania, great games.
This was a great stream, lots of hidden gems
Always love seeing games that maybe weren't as in the spotlight as others. The only one here I actually knew of was the Sailor Moon game which I thought was cool (I'm a fan of the show lol) Operation Logic Bomb was also a nice surprise I'd be down for playing that one. All in all I think a lot of these had somewhat potential but maybe weren't fully polished to a degree. Thank you though Vin, really enjoyed watching these.
I kinda hope he does a full playthrough of alcahest
Has Vinny ever played Castelvania Judgment?
Ha, I JUST watched a SNESDrunk right before this.
Yooo the bomberman game! That was my jam!
If you want good foreign games, you need to check out the Parodius games on the Super Famicom. A crime that they’re still stuck in Japan.

I agree with Vinny on that one. The photosensitivity was a big issue in the 90s. I heard about the story of a 14-year old british kid named Jasminder Bassi being found dead after suffering those symptoms while going back to his house after hours of playing Mario games. This death led to a worldwide moral panicking thanks to the cancer that is The Sun newspaper publishing their article, even though Bassi has a long history of epilepsy before this. Thankfully, this problem no longer exists thanks to not just advanced Televisions, but the infamous Electric Soldier Porygon episode as well.
Loved every second of it!
Do you think in 20 years somebody is going to do this but with the "anime rpgs" on Switch
Alcahest I enjoyed playing quite a bit. Played to the very end and beat it (with the help of save states).
With that Syd Valis game, I wasn't sure until Vinny fell into the pit and it just spat the girl back out, but I think that game is meant to be a literal babby game. An easy game for little girls who want an action game like their brothers play or something, I'll bet that's how they marketed it. Either that or it's something that was originally going to wind up on a handheld.
Yo Vinny you should play altar beast from SNES back in the day
