The 129 in 1 thing is clearly a Chinese bootleg program. Many plug and plays have that exact UI and sound effects. And of course the "same game under a thousand different names" thing and the "mysterious non-existent sequels" thing.
"AirB&B" was released in the US under the name "Samurai Zombie Nation". In that version you play a giant disembodied samurai's head rather than a tengu, and the people you kill are actually zombies created by aliens (yes, they did rip-off Plan 9 from Outer Space).
The reason why this system has no Zelda or other games which require saving states is it must not have the capability to save games. Pretty unfortunate....
I'd probably wager a guess that their setup lacked Famicom Disk System support altogether, based on the lack of Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels and Metroid as well
Every Jontron fan recognizes the game with the flying head destroying buildings, just the sprites are different for fuck all reasons. I'll stick with my PSP when it comes to retro emulation. It's still the king of it centuries later.
Sprites are different because of localization. They assumed American kids wouldn't understand a giant floating Tengu face so they changed it to a zombie.
Well they were right, but why they didn't change it to a spaceship or something is another matter. Still...we got the glory of NAKED ZOMBIE SEAN CONNERY.
+Leon S. Kennedy which made it make less sense and made it weirder than it would have been otherwise. This still kind of happens with localization teams for certain games, Japan should really stop employing space aliens to localize games for Americans.
I don't understand why they fill these devices with tat when they can download a full NES rom collection from any torrent site and chuck them on the devices. Given they don't seem to care about copyright or trademarks, I don't understand why they don't do it.
Years late, but my guess is that using pre-existing multi-cart ROMs or hacking new ones together is quicker/cheaper than making some sort of custom interface for storing and loading arbitrary ROMs.
oh man, the "summer carnival" you skipped over is actually "summer carnival '92 recca" which is a phenomenal shooter that does amazing technical things (like tons of sprites on screen with no slowdown) and has a wonderfully impressive soundtrack; you've gotta give it a try!
Bananan is one of the greatest games of the Famicom, but it took me so much to pass the stage 5-3, whose boss asks questions in Japanese. Kick Master is also amazing, I remember the power system with its dozens of power ups. Captain Tsubasa 2 is just amazing, but so damn long.
Wow, that's a cool device. At first I was thinking it was another "Pop Station" device, but it's actually a little "Famicom" system. I couldn't help but notice that "Abarenb" seems to play pretty similar to "Samurai Zombie Nation". Makes me wonder if "Abarenb" was the original game, but was altered here in the United States into the odder-ball game "Samurai Zombie Nation". Cool video.
5 years later, I'm here to tell you that you are right. "Abarenb" is a truncation of "Abarenbou Tengu" - the original Japanese version of Zombie Nation.
Aww, man, I was really hoping you'd start up that 'Summer CarniCarnival' game. Its full name is Summer Carnival: Recca (usually just called Recca), and it's an amazing shmup that really pushes the limits of the NES/FC. It plays like the fast-paced pre-bullet-hell games, comparable to the old Soldier games (such as Soldier Blade on the TurboGrafx-16/PC-Engine). If you like shmups, you owe it to yourself a go in that game...
ASHENS!!!! I hope you read this, like, alot. Your videos have helped me through so much in the past, through depression and happiness, they've brought so much joy to my life and so much geeky knowledge. So, essentially, what I'm writing this to tell you that you are my favorite youtuber and will be for a long time to come.
Ah it's nice that they have Kyatto Ninden Teyandee on it, that's Samurai Pizza Cats for those outside of Japan. Also Stuart, it has a bloody reset button. LOL.
About Contra and Gryzor..... They don't hold a candle to Probotector. He protects and probes at the same time. The robot is a hero but is also doing subcontractor work for grey aliens by probing the people he protects. Everyone wins, because after the probing, he replaces their memories with a trip to Disneyland, and no one can remember the probing until one guy goes to the hypnotist to quit smoking, and he scares the hypnotist by recalling his adventures in the lab with Probotector. So after he wakes up, the hypnotist tells him the bad news, and sez: "look you should probably not worry about smoking anymore, you got syphilis from a dirty Probotector probe. Your nose will fall of and you'll go crazy. But go on a talk show before you die and warn everyone about the upcoming alien Armageddon" So then he does that, and he is committed to sunny acres sanatarium, where he died insane with a fake Michael Jackson nose, so he can hit the high notes before he dies. Also, for some reason, when he is committed, a plastic surgeon bleaches his skin, and he gets a child named Blanket and a Bubbles. He dies because he paid a doctor to inject him with a medicine that's used to knock people out for surgery. The doctor was blinded by money and didn't hook him up to an oxygen machine, and all the doctors money doesn't protect him from his cell mate Romper Stomper. Coming soon to Netflix, starring that kid from Harry Potter. Daniel Radscorpion. 4 stars. Gripping....a real page-turner. Fun 4 the whole family, except the victims families. It's pretty fucked up for them. FIN.
And now, in 2021 the Bittboy has an SD slot. However, the Anbernic RG350 and 351 series consoles are incredibly superior. My favorite is the RG351V as it has the correct 3:4 display ratio and a better screen than the other 351 models.
7 yrs later and still re watching all your videos, by far my favourite toober! But damn it Ashens you said Robocop too many times and didn't sing the song, it's OK I got you! "He is a robot, he is a cop" "He is a Robocop" "They shot his head in, then he was deadin'" "Now he's a Robocop!" 👌
The "T" for the second row of A and B is a turbo button so you dont have to keep pressing the button for every bullet you can just hold one of the turbo buttons down
That Raging Tengu game (Samurai Zombie Nation on the Nes) controls differently with different difficulty levels: on easy it's like a normal shooter, but on hard, like Stuart played it, it has a weird inertia factor to it.
Jontron: "These are just a bunch of mislabeled titles from the NES!" Ashens: "Its just a nice little thing to play about on and not have to worry to much about" Different countries, different ideals.
SilverEevee There are plenty of books on the subject, many of which include photos from concentration camps. Maybe actually get off the internet once in your life and read one of them. You can start with Night and Fog by Erich Kulka.
16:11 ... maybe some alpha/beta versions got shipped out by accident, comparing the box doesn't have the yellow color, says 300 games when there is not on your version but there is on other versions, and then is worded weird saying "pre loaded with 300 games" as to imply like you can load more since the wording for one that you can not update you would expect to be "includes 300 games" and not "pre loaded..." but at the same times doesn't mention the SD slot. Which probably means that the original plans was pre load with 300 games and allow a SD card to put on more, but then before final release they got told they should not allow people to load roms onto it since Nintendo might throw a fit about an emulator being able to play any roms, and so took of the text of a SD slot, but didn't change the wording that implied being able to load more on since that is an easy miss, and since yours was a beta build still had the SD slot with the SD slot removed for legal purposes. That would be my guess as to why some got 300 games and some didn't and why you have a SD slot with no SD reader and why the wording is a bit grey.... Obviously wording can be a bit grey from translation so really means nothing, but with the random color not listed, the 300/129 difference between some people, the empty slot, and the wording combined it seems plausible.
hockeyhacker97 The whole thing about Nintendo throwing a fit over an emulator, while completely understandable, wouldn't mean much. Emulation and emulators are perfectly legal, it's only the ROMs that aren't. It's the same reason why they don't get on the case of people who make emulators for stuff like the Raspberry Pi.
Um well, then you kind of missed exactly my point and fully agreed that that is a plausible reason then, if you re read what I had wrote, I had stated "they probably got advised to not allow people to install their own roms because Nintendo would throw a fit" ... I never said anything against the emulator, I said they where probably advised to not give easy access for downloaded ROMs to get onto the system. While yes they could argue they are not the ones creating the ROMs and the SD slot is there for people who have legal back ups of their games and not intended for piracy, Nintendo could still argue that it would be a easy tool for pirates to use if it was designed to allow more games to be added. Hence why they might have had a SD slot but pulled it before final release due to not wanting to risk getting in a tiff with Nintendo due to allowing illegal products to run on their system. Nintendo has the lawyers where it's advisable to just avoid confrontations like that and just pull the SD functionality out before sale, as such you kind of agreed with my plausible theory while miss understanding what I had said.
of course you can..... bloddy hell.. people did that already....(why the Pi Zero may people ask.. because its smaller and all. and you dont need to desolder the HDMI Ports etc because the Zero dont have it to begin with witch makes it smaller)
The only reason why I was thinking about it was mostly to see if the screen's controller board would be hard to mod for the Pi. However, the screen I'm using now is 5 inch wide screen. I'm kinda going for something similar to a PSP form factor. Mostly because it just feels more comfortable than a game boy for me. I do love how small and affordable the Pi Zero is. I have about five right now and planing to make other stuff. Wanting to replace my old car stereo with one.
Holy crap, there a bunch of cool "obscure" games on this thing. Mitsume ga Tooru, Yume Penguin Monogatari, Rockin' Cats, Recca... Hell this thing has Karnov! And somehow they missed Zelda??? Maybe they only wanted to piss off Nintendo a little bit?
The reason the kunio/river city games are listed as "hot" is because the Japanese title of the series is "Nekketsu Kouha Kunio-Kun" or "Hot Blooded Tough Guy Kunio-Kun" and yes the first game (arcade) was localized as renegade, but I would recommend playing the original.
No, old car brakes had asbestos for brakes, abs is the electronic system car manufacturers install so that people who cant control their feet in an emergency dont slide into the car in front when they are texting instead of noticing the traffic light is red.
@@Colt45hatchback I don't think thats what anti-lock brakes do. They pulsate the brakes so they don't lock, that's what that noise and vibration is when you slam down the brake pedal.
Aw man, Silkworm on the Amiga was our friggin' childhood... I was always the jeep, my bro (being the eldest) the heli. Pure nostalgia in game form right there!! Not to mention it had one of the BEST theme songs...
Can you imagine being 8-years-old and getting this for Christmas in 1989? My tiny little heart would have exploded.
My will exploded even back in 1998
It didn't exist back in 1989😊
The 129 in 1 thing is clearly a Chinese bootleg program. Many plug and plays have that exact UI and sound effects. And of course the "same game under a thousand different names" thing and the "mysterious non-existent sequels" thing.
theres actual famicom cartridges that are still made today that are the ### in 1that use the same ui and sounds
You can literally buy one for a few dollars.
Yep got a bootleg plug and play handheld with a ui that looks almost exactly the same
yooo stocking
Wow! I think you cracked the case there detective noshit Sherlock! Just wait till the cheif hears about this one!
"AirB&B" was released in the US under the name "Samurai Zombie Nation". In that version you play a giant disembodied samurai's head rather than a tengu, and the people you kill are actually zombies created by aliens (yes, they did rip-off Plan 9 from Outer Space).
I once heard of someone getting one of those 120 in one games and on it one said "Rocobob."
It was Tetris.
I once pooped out my knob
No Street Overlord??? I am disappointed :(
Larry Bundy Jr you are a great youtuber please keep making vidoes
@@dexterkoula3407 hahahaha
The reason why this system has no Zelda or other games which require saving states is it must not have the capability to save games. Pretty unfortunate....
That or they don't want the big N coming down on them
it appears that it's just the ROM of a chinese bootleg cart which didn't have the battery save
I'd probably wager a guess that their setup lacked Famicom Disk System support altogether, based on the lack of Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels and Metroid as well
I was literally about to comment this, thanks :P
so this portable nes handheld don't have legend of zelda nes? are you sure?!
No no, Ashens, that "Harry's Adventure" game was in-fact Harry Potter.
It’s funny how “Harry’s Legend” was actually a Harry Potter bootleg
Based on a Titanic bootleg is memory serves.
Even after more then 8 years Ashens videos NEVER change. The video quality just gets better.
Every Jontron fan recognizes the game with the flying head destroying buildings, just the sprites are different for fuck all reasons. I'll stick with my PSP when it comes to retro emulation. It's still the king of it centuries later.
Sprites are different because of localization. They assumed American kids wouldn't understand a giant floating Tengu face so they changed it to a zombie.
They changed it from a floating head to...a slightly uglier floating head. Good thinking.
Well they were right, but why they didn't change it to a spaceship or something is another matter.
Still...we got the glory of NAKED ZOMBIE SEAN CONNERY.
+Leon S. Kennedy which made it make less sense and made it weirder than it would have been otherwise.

My guess would be they want it to have different games than you find on other Famiclones, so you’ll buy it as well.
Years late, but my guess is that using pre-existing multi-cart ROMs or hacking new ones together is quicker/cheaper than making some sort of custom interface for storing and loading arbitrary ROMs.
oh man, the "summer carnival" you skipped over is actually "summer carnival '92 recca" which is a phenomenal shooter that does amazing technical things (like tons of sprites on screen with no slowdown) and has a wonderfully impressive soundtrack; you've gotta give it a try!
Pretty sure that Contra rom has been modified, given that it has a bloody URL in the title screen.
"I want Bitt-Boy."
"Now Harvey, you've just had Bitt-Boy."
"BITT-BOY!"
WAYYYYY late comment but love me some Little Britain :)
Ashens that was clearly not Sky Blue but SKY BIUE
Also the Cattou Ninden thing is the japanese name of what became Samurai Pizza Cats.
Abarenb(ou Tengu) is the game that was localized as (Samurai) Zombie Nation and yeah it's really weird.
"Gurume World" is "Gourmet World"/"Panic Restaurant". "Nyankies" is "N.Y. Nyankies"/"Rockin' Cats".
Surely 'Robocop' was said enough here to be legally obligated to sing the Robocop song?
He is a Robot. He is a Cop. He is a Robocop.
Those "T" buttons would be turbo, right? That'd be the logical conclusion.
Bananan is one of the greatest games of the Famicom, but it took me so much to pass the stage 5-3, whose boss asks questions in Japanese.
Kick Master is also amazing, I remember the power system with its dozens of power ups.
Captain Tsubasa 2 is just amazing, but so damn long.

3:48 The T stands for turbo, dunnit?
When you planned on giving away the yellow one to keep the cool white one but find out it has a third of the games
Yes! Thanks for remaining to your roots of the channel. I love these.
Is it T for turbo?
Yes the extra buttons are turbo buttons
It has Gun Nac, so those are actually pretty useful
no, it's w for wumbo
I was just thinking the same thing.
No! T is for Trouble!!

Probably, someone needs to gut one and give the specs.
I'm sure it can soon as someone ports it.
sadly not the gb and gbc tho

he is a robot
he is a cop
he is a robocop

Now he's a robocop
Damn, Bittboy must have one hell of a marketing budget...
About every retro-gaming RUclipsr has received one to review so it seems...
Ashens, that "bizarre game" with the floating head dude is called Samurai Zombie Nation. JonTron did a pretty entertaining video on it.
HellJustFroze you mean Spoony made a video on it
I noticed that too. Though it seems like the emulated version has a different character sprite, for some reason.
probably just the Japanese version, actually. that'd my guess, atleast
The US and JP versions had different sprites.
Ah, that would make sense.
About Contra and Gryzor..... They don't hold a candle to Probotector.

Harry's Legend really is a Harry Potter, it's just some chinese rom hack of an unknown game.
It was originally a Titanic bootleg, specifically "Titenic".
Six minutes may be the fastest I've ever been to an Ashens vid without a notification. I doubt anyone else cares. I just thought I'd mention that.
Jason Zak same, I don't get notifications until around 15 minutes after the video is uploaded
No Skyrim?
Skyrim does not work on this because it not powerful enough for you.
Don't worry, future retro games will all have Skyrim
R. K. Vis Is Skyrim when you lick arseholes on a plane?

There are some amazing games on there. Little Nemo was amazing, as was Chip n Dale Rescue Rangers.
That Raging Tengu game (Samurai Zombie Nation on the Nes) controls differently with different difficulty levels: on easy it's like a normal shooter, but on hard, like Stuart played it, it has a weird inertia factor to it.
I missed your bootlegged game reviews. Cheers for this Stu
*There's a bloody reset switch*
I remember playing New Zealand Story / Kiwi Kraze quite a lot as a kid.
The Super 8-bit power hour podcast said they're busy right now, so they wanted you to hand the Bittboy to me and I'll make sure they get it.
Staurt's reaction to Zombie Nation is pretty incredible.
Did you check the other one? Maybe it has the fabled 300 games!
I know this is going to sound weird but your voice is so soothing and British, that listening to your electronics reviews helps me focus at work.
Happy about pronunciation of "Legend of Kage"
Game #87 is Natsume's "Shadow of the Ninja"/"Blue Shadow"/"Yami no Shigotonin Kage".
Pardon my haste. Taito's "Legend of Kage" is on this, as Game #117.
Man to be honest, I think ashens should be a gamer too like my god

I don't know if you know that Stuart, but there's a bloody reset switch :D

He points it out while reviewing the hardware itself at 3:53 and then just toggles the power button anyways...
I like seeing how many people don't understand sarcastic humor by correcting the "joke" someone posts. But there is a bloody reset switch, btw. ;)

Ashens only got 129 games of 300. He has been ripped off. *Like that's never happened before.*
The T buttons are for Turbo! I'm 22 years younger than you, don't own the device, and I still get it.
a handheld NES would be sick as fuck if this one wasn't trash
Emulation is the answer to a handheld NES
It's called a PSP. Get one.(It can emulate GBA games and much more as well.)
Aaaah, Zombie Nation. I really wish I hadn't sold my complete copy of that back in '07.
Jontron: "These are just a bunch of mislabeled titles from the NES!"
Ashens: "Its just a nice little thing to play about on and not have to worry to much about"
Different countries, different ideals.
Prove that it happened the way they said. Fucking prove it.
SilverEevee There are plenty of books on the subject, many of which include photos from concentration camps. Maybe actually get off the internet once in your life and read one of them. You can start with Night and Fog by Erich Kulka.

That screen looks bloody marvelous!
Ashens I still can't believe you haven't reviewed the gpd xd
I brought two.......both broke one was the screen one was the battery
Cattou Ninden Teyandee - is the show that quite famously got bought and redubbed as Samurai Pizza Cats... it has some fascinating story behind it...!
9:40
I am proud that the Ashens community will not make 9/11 jokes.
Well done everyone, have a cookie...
Because it didn't look like the twin towers
finally!, Ashens had to be the chosen one to know what the bloddy "R" in contra does, yes!, it's rapid fire!.
I wonder if I can put a Pi Zero in something like that. I'm currently building my own handheld but waiting on the rest of my parts to get here.
of course you can..... bloddy hell.. people did that already....(why the Pi Zero may people ask.. because its smaller and all. and you dont need to desolder the HDMI Ports etc because the Zero dont have it to begin with witch makes it smaller)

mintypi
It's called a PiGRRL and they use a model 2 B because there's enough space in the case.
Everyone knows about the PiGRRL. But I'm wanting to make my own that is closer to the PSP.
15:32 Game #103 is really awesome, best game by miles!
They seem to have completely removed the DPCM channel from this device. So, none of the games have samples.
His reaction to Zombie Nation is about the same as mine when I first played it.
"A PRODUCTION" haha
That's a crazy good looking screen, though. Super sharp.
Air BnB The Game :D
actually pretty good selection. lots of deep cuts.
That 'l' being in lowercase in the word "SKY BlUE" really bugged me.
Sword Master and Kage (Shadow of the Ninja/Blue Shadow,) are my two absolute favorite NES games
Does that thing ship to other countries?
From the website Ashens linked, seems so.
Just checked, yeah pretty much world wide. Shipping was dirt cheap too.
Eucep thanks
Ok, going to give a warning, ordered one a week ago and it's still on processing.
Oh...
Take this entire monologue of Ashens talking about old video games, present it to a mental health care worker and what do you have?
A SECTION!
Holy crap, there a bunch of cool "obscure" games on this thing. Mitsume ga Tooru, Yume Penguin Monogatari, Rockin' Cats, Recca... Hell this thing has Karnov! And somehow they missed Zelda??? Maybe they only wanted to piss off Nintendo a little bit?
Save feature.
It also has Altered Beast.
Yeah, that seems to be the usual Schtick with multicarts. As long as they put no first party games on there they usually get away with it.
Recca , thats one is my favorite
For those who don't know, there really was an official Famicom version of Altered Beast.
It was made by Asmik.
I want this for summer carnival 92. Such a rare cartridge and is super fun
yay its the game child with a nes put in it
Josh S How about Nes Boy
The reason the kunio/river city games are listed as "hot" is because the Japanese title of the series is "Nekketsu Kouha Kunio-Kun" or "Hot Blooded Tough Guy Kunio-Kun" and yes the first game (arcade) was localized as renegade, but I would recommend playing the original.
He is a robot he is a cop he is a robo cop..
Cool, it was the Famicom Contra that actually gave you units of health. Which was a step above our Contra but lightyears above Probotector. lol
Material: ABS
It's made from old car breaks?
No, old car brakes had asbestos for brakes, abs is the electronic system car manufacturers install so that people who cant control their feet in an emergency dont slide into the car in front when they are texting instead of noticing the traffic light is red.
@@Colt45hatchback I don't think thats what anti-lock brakes do. They pulsate the brakes so they don't lock, that's what that noise and vibration is when you slam down the brake pedal.
@@LCAC75 exactly. They are for people who cant maintain control of the vehicle in an emergency situation.
Aw man, Silkworm on the Amiga was our friggin' childhood... I was always the jeep, my bro (being the eldest) the heli. Pure nostalgia in game form right there!! Not to mention it had one of the BEST theme songs...
You bite the peach the peach bites back
Thank you for reviewing a console like you used to!
Robocop "4" appears to be a weird version of a Robocop 3 game - namely because the third film is the one with the kid in it.
It's a terrible film.
If you look closely at the title-screen, you can see where they haven't quite removed the "3" from the logo.
It was labeled Robocop 4 because multicarts tend to include Shatterhand but rebranded as "Robocop 3"
good thing i grabbed one when i saw someone reviewing one week back, just have to wait now till it comes in
