1.61% of the video was spent listening to "SNES Drunk".
Yeah, I fucking hate the long intros.
thank you so much for your service. i really appreciate all that you provide to the SD community
This isn't my livelihood
@@Konarcoffee tf are you on about
@@SNESdrunk you don’t solely exist in an ethereal matrix of SNES, emerging only to impart drunken packages of info from the great beyond?
I personally love the Cotton series, and have used the roms available to successfully introduce my 10 year old son the shoot em' up genre. With that said, I wish to admit that the real motivation behind this particular comment is because I simply want to reiterate just how great it is to have you back from your lengthy sabbatical. We were sorely missing your reviews, and your unwavering positivity. I find it significantly easier to have "a great rest of my day", after viewing one of your new releases; and sincerely look forward to upcoming videos in the near future.😊 Welcome back Drunk! I think it's safe to say we all missed you badly, my friend. 😄
THIS IS A HIDDEN GEM OF A GAME EH?!?
Huh, watched this and then got an email from Strictly Limited Games saying this:
Together with our close friends at SUCCESS Corp., we are ecstatic to announce that the Strictly Limited line-up of games will receive not one... not two... but four shoot 'em ups in the beloved COTTON series!
Cotton 100%
Panorama Cotton
Cotton 2
Cotton Boomerang
Yeah I thought this video was made in celebration of that announcement but he didn't mention it. Funny coincidence.
All of the cotton games are good, but the best two have to be Cotton 2 and Cotton Boomerang, both exclusive for the Sega Saturn. Deep, fun gameplay, amazing music, and gorgeous visuals with crazy 2D effects all over the place that the 16-bit consoles and PS1 could never hope to run. Check them out if you can!!
Those were originally arcade games so you can also play them on mame.
I'm not gonna lie, that cut scene with her lying on her broom moping looked really cute. I've always been kind of on the fence with shoot-'em-ups; some are just maddening, some are fun but frustrating, but this one looks just my speed.
A Japanese TV commercial from the series is available on RUclips, and it's super cute.
When you were describing the gane series in the intro I just could think of the Xzibit meme:
"Yo dawg, I heard you like niches, so I put a niche into your niche"
In his case it would be nitch.
A fun thing I like to do with friends unfamiliar with Cotton: have them play the SNES game and then put in the Genesis one and watch as they lose their minds.
Panorama Cotton is so much better SNES Cotton isnt even very good for a 2D game
I told my kids this is kiki's delivery service the game
Thanks man, the fact that you upload these videos either at night or very early in the morning and you saying “have a great rest of your day” says a lot.
If you live in Europe (which is my case), it makes perfectly sense, since I get new SNES Drunk videos at 1 pm.
We missed you. Glad to see content from you
I agree!
But you need a shirt bro !
Sheesh ! 🤦🏻♂️
@@Gamer-lq4wl why need a shirt? At least I'm having an actual profile pic
Haven't even hit play yet, just want to say welcome back bro!
Hope you've been well Drunk. Your vids help keep me upbeat during Australia's draconian neverending lockdowns.
Dan Andrews is literally an enemy of humanity.
@@16xthedetail76 💯%
you can also check out his podcast. It is a cozy listen.
Lockdown definitely has it's drawbacks but I might still prefer it to everyone dropping dead left and right like we have in Florida right now...
Its there because specifically you are a moron
I always wanted to get into shmups, especially the cute'em ups, but never got around to. The whole hectic action and craziness of them always fascinated me, but I am too inept to even get through a level. I'll give this one a go. Thanks for the video, man!
It's a fun genre once you get an eye for when to --- and not to --- dodge, amd how the scoring actually works.
After giving this game a try, I def recommend the Twin Bee series
@@MixMasterLar thank you for the recommendation, Lar! I will give it a whirl for sure. If you have any more for an absolute noob in love with the genre, feel free to do so!
@@VtheWanderer NP yo! I'll drop 3 more real quick and that should get you going lol. Hope you have a blast playing these
1942 from Capcom, or any of their 194X games are fairly easy and don't overcomplicate the formula (shoot n dodge) sorta as oldschool as tje genre gets while still mainting a sense of speed.
Super Fortress Macross II is kinda a time trial/score attack thing where getting hit just respawns you--doesn't count towards a game over as long as you're making qouta. The Easy course is loads of fun because of it.
Touhou 7 (Perfect Cherry Blossom) got me into proper bullet hells but despite the reputation of the series being hard as nails, it has an easy setting that isn't near as bad. The game *looks* intimidating but once you realize you don't actually have to dodge EVERY bullet you see, it starts coming together.
@@MixMasterLar thanks a bunch, friend! I'll go with your recommendations!
Always look forward to your uploads. It has become a part of my Tuesday routine.
Me too 🙃
Love that game! I've always wanted to own it ever since I saw an import review of it back in 1994 and this year, I finally got it. Praise be to the lovely people at Analogue for making the Super NT region free 😃
The candy she is after is not Willow, its actually Uirou (although in they way the stylized the katakana would be the same as willow). Uirou is a traditional Japanese candy (Wagashi) that is kind of like mochi, but is made with rice flower, sugar and some other added flavor such as sweet bean, chestnut, green tea, etc.
So nice to have you back, SD.
This will be a great game to show my daughter when she's old enough (she's 2 btw)
the intro replicates the echoes of snes stereo perfectly 😂
I love that in this era we got games like this one and Panorama Cotton that plays like Space Harrier on acid. That's how you keep a game series fresh in such a short span of time.
I remember the sequel: cotton 25% polyester 75%
Just wanted to say that I'm glad to see you are back, and, I hope, okay. You've talked a few times about dealing with mental health issues and, as a person, who struggles with them too, I know how quickly they can rear their ugly head. I was worried that we wouldn't see you again and not because we wouldn't get any more content. We have loads of content. I was worried because I didn't know if you were safe. It looks like you are. I hope you are doing well.
I've watched your stuff for a few years and you are how I've introduced retro gaming to my 6 year old son. We will watch your videos and he will see a game that looks interesting to him, we'll find it and play it and that's been a fantastic way for the two of us to bond and I cannot express how important that is to me as a father. We have a hobby we both like, that we can share, that teaches us team work and communication and it's under the guise of games. What it really does though, is gives me an opportunity to spend quality time with him and get to know him better. And, I think, he gets to know me. So, yeah, it's just video game reviews, but the way you do it, got my son's attention and that has helped me build a better relationship with him and I think I'm a bit of a better parent because of that.
So, thanks SNES Drunk and I hope you have a great rest of your day
Just added this to my list of games to play on Christmas Eve this year. Looks fun.
it hurt when you mentioned the term "cute'm up" , but I love the cotton series, thanks for the mention
I came to this video to say, Cotton 100% has a Fan Translation now too.
The cartridge of this charming little SFC game comes with a mini drama CD which expands the storyline a bit, probably. I am not that fluent in Japanese to understand what it's all about, but it's there. The Megadrive installment of this franchise is crazy rare and expensive. If you can play it, do it, as it is a most interesting game, for its use of pseudo 3D.

::Gets Final Fantasy II for SNES flashbacks::
I’m here because I saw Cotton 100%, Panorama Cotton, and Cotton Reboot on the Nintendo Switch store.
I found this channel because of retro game stores/conventions, but I now I’m here because of all the recent remakes and ports.
Cotton 100% is probably one of the most chill feeling SHMUPS out there and I think that's a good thing.
After playing so many bullet hells, sometimes I need a SHMUP that's like a cute and simple joyride.
yea, i agree, a shmup most people can actually beat is not a bad thing. most shmups are way too hard, even on easy. it's insulting to have something be insanely hard on easy setting. easy is supposed to actually be fairly easy
Love you bro, I know you don't have many subs, but I feel you should have a few million. You've def introduced me into some awesome SNES games. Keep it up
Kickass, a new SNESdrunk video. This is my favorite RUclips channel; keep 'em coming! There are so many retro games/consoles to cover, I could listen to your takes all day, man. Cheers
Oh hey, you're back.
This reminds me of Harmful Park for the Playstation, which has the same candy-colored graphics. Also, there was a Sega Genesis Cotton game co-developed by Sunsoft and Success. It was a Space Harrier-like shooter seen from behind the lead character! Stranger still is that the 3D effects actually aren't bad considering the system!
Yes, they're both in the genre of "cute'em up."
The art is really nice!
This game is awesome! Its so chill to play and has great music!
It is so Japanese in the best way. Please check out the Japanese TV commercial. 😎😎😎
And exactly today, a bunch of Cotton games got announced for current console, including this one, nice timing!
Cotton 2 for Sega Saturn is where it’s at , pretty challenging with great music and graphics
I have never heard of this one. It looks fun. I am no expert at shoot 'em ups and it looks like a fun game to play through.
Its a boring game to play. Good graphics but I wanted Halloween themed levels and these are mostly Hello Kitty
Thank you! I hope you have a great rest of your day too.
Good to see you're back Snes drunk. Seemed like you were MIA for a minute there.
What a coincidence i just put this on my super famicom mini today
Genuinely give the unreleased and 99% completed SNES "Spellcraft" port a real chance. Stick with for a little while. Once you get the hang of it, the combat is like fantasy super punchout and the spell system is fun to play with. The password system does not work, and some slight issues with text boxes but I think a lot of people will fall in love with it.
this looks like the fake RPG the little brother plays in Mission Hill lollll
The password system doesn't work? Save states to the rescue!
I never knew the Super NES/SFC had a Cotton game. There was a Cotton game on the Genesis/MD that is a rail shooter and the visuals are phenomenal. I might check this one out sometime. Hopefully it's not expensive for the asking price.
So glad I own this game, and not many people mention it!
It's great fun to play and very relaxed for a shmup - I love it!
Love seeing a new SNES drunk vid on my home page! Love your content man! "Cute em up" lol!!!!
My goodness, I love Cotton! I don't think I've ever actually played this one, though.
Just wanna say, great to see you back SNESDrunk.
Cute em ups are either balls hard bullet hell shooters like tohou, or stuff like this or infinite continues like harmful park, or goofy like parodius. I enjoy the non bullet hell ones. These backgrounds are so nice for snes! Thanks for the hard work
How did I not know this existed on SFC? Omg ty so much for showing me this!!!!
Funny enough, I only know Cotton from the Strategy RPG Rondo of Swords on the DS where she was a secret recruitable character in that one! never knew she had her own games till todays (it's been a LONG time since the Nintendo DS years LOL)
The last SNES shmup I remember playing on the actual SNES hardware was Darius Twin.
That was an early release was it not?
@@joesshows6793
Not sure. I ended up getting an NES by the time the SNES was already out,.
Got the rerelease of that game, i am playing it more than i thought i will.
Overall style, pacing and music/sound is just very well done.
It is a very good game you can just start and play.
I saw shumpjunkies video on cotton, and it does look pretty cool. Glad to see another review of it tho with drunk.
I think the arcade version did have a western release with english cutscenes. Don't quote me on that though, my memory is fuzzy and I might be talking about some other Cotton title.
I think I've seen this before, but have never played it. It looks like fun and I always enjoy a nice shoot-em-up (even if it is really easy). I did always thought Magical Chase was related to Cotton, but they did seem very similar. Most shoot-em-ups used spaceships so it was interesting to see Japan come up with something quite different like this, Parodius and TwinBee.
That is one reason I like the SNES. There is quite the abundance of shoot-em-ups! Thanks for reminding me of this series. I might have to finally play it!
Dude... I think it's time to swallow our pride... and do an entire "Cute 'em Ups" series. #manly
I wanna float around!
…like men.
@@TServo2049 super macho
Oddly, a French hack of this game exists.
The graphics and especially the backgrounds look gorgeous
Completely forgot about this series. I have to remember to put the new Switch-Cotton on my wishlist later
3:05 Those litte Archers on the ground look like little Haohmaru from Samurai Showdown.
Since Metal Combat (3 months ago) RUclips have stopped to show me your new videos. Cheers!
I played Cotton Reboot on the Switch and Panorama Cotton on the Genesis. Panorama plays similar to Space Harrier if you want to try it out, SNES Drunk.
Thanks for the video SNESDrunk
Hey drunk, would DOS games be too out of your content range? Would love to see a review for tyrian 2000, since we were talking about shmups. It's even free on gog :)
Thanks for all your work!
Personally for me,
I can take PS2, Gamecube, PS1, OG Xbox, TurboGrafx 16, Master System, SNES, Sega Saturn, Sega Genesis, Dreamcast, N64, even NES.
But playing DOS feels like being immolated while having spiked needles get slowly but forcefully shoved into my ears 💀
Kinda wish every single DOS game had its version of GZDoom, Zandronum, etc.
I remember SkyRoads, it was a cool game.
@@endoftheleft2704
Tyrian's a later release, with arcade quality graphics and soundtrack.
And it's one of the few western shmups from the era that doesn't use the "your slow, fragile ship and your underpowered spitball shooter" template everyone hates.
While we're opening the flood gates of MSDOS games, I might as well suggest Zeliard as a possible hidden gem.
Great as always Snes Drunk!
I think these games are easy/short on purpose so you can focus on the scoring system. I had the most fun in Cotton Reboot trying to have the best score possible. For sure having a leaderboard helps. These games are better suited as arcade experiences in my opinion where you compete against others.
The short playtime is also nice for those of us with busy lifestyles and/or families. Sometimes after work I only have 30 minutes to spend on my hobbies, so this kind of game is perfect.
I got this last year....fantastic semi sequel of the original Cotton game ^^
Epic SHMUP right here
Those Cotton games are all pretty good shooters for cute 'em ups.
That cute em up game looks cool.
The art style looks reasonably good and I personally sick at these kinds of games after the first couple of easy levels that most have. So I might just try this out to say I finally beat one without cheating.
Everyone cheats if anyone says they don't they're lying 👈
@@cazamilfs8945 In the past, sure. But that taught me that cheating isn't fun so I dedicate myself to beating a game fair and square and to never give up. The satisfaction you get after completing a game with sheer effort is something else. Of course, sometimes I might use savestates to save time or change settings but that isn't cheating, it doesn't give me an advantage to beat a game. In conclusion, if you want to have more fun, don't cheat.
Damn when I saw this in my recommended. I realized I haven't seen one of your videos in a long ass time. I hope everything is well and that you are doing well.
This video was exactly for me lol thank you! All your videos are fantastic snnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnesdrunk!
I just played my first Cotton game on the Sega Astro City Mini. Not sure which one that is in the series but its definitely fun stuff.
Shootemups being extremely hard. *flashbacks of Gradius V happen*
Thank you snesdrunk
I am a huge fan of this series of games and as you are already aware of the fact that it’s getting a huge comeback remakes yes I said REMAKE ‘S not remastered!
At least with a name like Failure Incorporated, expectations are low so the sky's the limit!
LOLLLL ALL VIDEO SNES DRUNK SAID: BUAGHHHG COTTON!! ....nice video bro!!
Thanks for pointing this one out. I'll get this as baby's first shootemup
My favourite Cotton games are the ones that are TPP, like the Mega Drive Panorama Cotton, but most of them are fun for what they are.
Awesome! More videos, thank you!
I suck at shoot 'em ups, so naturally I love this game because I could actually beat it.
He's back!!!
Nice little game with great visuals and cute OST. I still own a copy of the game in really good condition but unfortunately lost the little CD with the title song that came with the title. Even worse, I can't seem to find the song on RUclips. It's such a catchy tune.
If I get the time, I can digitalise my CD and put it on YT ;)
I remember playing cotton on either a play station or maybe even Saturn demo kiosk in a sears in the mall in my town, or maybe the babages idk. It was the mall and it was a 32 bit console
Anyway never saw it again thought I dreamed it. Were any of the cotton games ever officially released here in the USA?
Anyway awesome series I rediscovered many years later
it was my first snes games when I was 5 or 6. I played it so many times, great game, indeed it was made for kids.
A Cotton game also came out on the TG16CD
Silver surfer for the hardcore shootem ups.
Oh yeah. He's back.
Wish games like this that didn’t have too much text had an English translation, just so that more little gems could get more exposure to the West
This is my favorite shooter on snes/sfam
There is a new Cotton coming out called Cotton Rock and Roll.
"...or if you just plain suck at shoot-em-ups"
That's ME!
Cotton. Cute name for a cute game
The vgmpire podcast did an episode about Panorama Cotton for the Genesis a few years ago. It has a pretty good soundtrack.
Now, I am someone who looks for challenge in games but I am still going to play this because why not?
cotton are intense games
They just announced a Switch version of this, Cotton 2 with Boomerang, Guardian Forces and Cotton Diaroma. I think Strictly Limited has the Cotton 2, Boomerang and Guardian Forces. The rest you may be able to secure at game stores. This and Diaroma are there own release. Are they remakes like Reboot? Or ports/emulations? I dunno... we'll see.
Never heard of this but I want it!!!
Yup defo a game for me I suck at shoot em ups and can stand with the best on one v one fighting games lololol cheers SnesDrunk another awesomely made video to add to the many you made to date.
I think "cute 'em up" sounds cute :3
