    When I was younger, I remember loving to go around the Coment Observatory from Mario Galaxy 😅 Idk why, I just enjoyed walking around...

    I wasn't able to experience a lot of Nintendo games as a kid since I only had a Wii, but here's what my favorite 5 locations would be:
    1. Cosmic Observatory
    2. That one lava skeleton dragon roller coaster level in Mario Bros Wii
    3. Final Destination
    4. Mushroom Gorge
    5. A recent addition since I'm still going through Pokemon Black, Castelia City

    Dragon Driftway is Chinese-inspired, not Japanese. The track is themed after Chinese temples, color palette of greens and reds, the red lantern decorations, and the Lakitu kung-fu statues scattered around all indicate towards Chinese culture. Fun fact the distinct string instrument being played in the track is called the erhu.

    It put me in the mind of Mario world-building at its best, like Paper Mario 64.

    Here are some of mine:
    - Comet Observatory: obviously it is so beautiful with the music and everything
    - Fossil Falls: powerful, daring music that goes beautifully with the lush landscape
    - Zora’s Domain: my favorite BOTW location, such a beautiful kingdom

  • @joeshroom5524
    @joeshroom5524 2 года назад +16

  • @joseybryant7577

    Hyrule Field is hands down my favorite. In OOT, it was just so peaceful during the day. Extra spooky at night though.

  • @Jackosaurus117
    @Jackosaurus117 2 года назад +2

    The best thing about nearly all these locations for me is how calming they are. When you’re an adult it’s just so nice to be able to escape for a while to locations like these and just relish in being a kid again

  • @yeeeeehaaaaaw

  • @Vehmura
    @Vehmura 2 года назад +6

    I love how after your introduction to the location, there's a part where there is just the music of the location and a video of you just walking around there. It really gives a chance to experience the atmosphere in the location.
    Very high quality video, good job :)

    The mansion in the first Luigi's Mansion makes me feel both uneasy and at home. Nintendo created a really special setting for that game that I don't think the sequels have managed to replicate. It's so memorable that it might as well be my second home with how ingrained the layout is in my brain. Also, there's no such thing as too much Wuhu Island talk. Great video!

  • @tommymaxey2665
    @tommymaxey2665 2 года назад +2

    Some of my favorite locations are Space Junk Galaxy was always such a blast to go through. The slow pace of the levels made me look at what was caught in this junk pile in space and I love the platforms that form at your feet. Beach Bowl Galaxy is such a fun world to swim and run around in listing to that awesome tropical beach theme. Link to the Past overworld is so fun to travel around especially because when I played the game the map was broken and it would only show the rough location of everything and I didn't want to use a guide. So whenever I played the game which was at my Grandma house I would just boot up my save in the Sanctuary after I save Zelda and I would just go as far as I could with only 3 hearts and lvl 1 sword. I found the first dungeon but it took me forever to beat it. Found Karkarioko village, Lost woods, the swamp area where the ice staff is. Such a fun time roaming around the world. Phendrana drifts, cold, icey, filled with dangeoruos ice dinosaur things I love it. The sketchy research lab where you find out the test of Metroids with Phazon. The boss fight is a little annoying but the spider ball is so fun to use. The sercets are fun but the one articfat that makes you shoot some random crate with like 3 super missles was dumb, it was the only time i needed to look something up for the game and I feel like that crate HP should of been lower. Some of my favorite palces in Pokemon are the Sevii Islands. I just had such a blast exploring all the new islands, i think people dont give them enough love. Another area is route 119 and 120 in RSE. And there are so much more from many more games. Great video man I love your take on Nintendo's games.

  • @reesecates8620
    @reesecates8620 2 года назад +1

    One of my favorite locations from a Nintendo game would have to be the Lor Starcutter from Kirby's Return to Dreamland. It has such a warm atmosphere despite it being a bit small of a location, almost as if Magalor invited you to come spend some time on his ship and maybe take a break from the main adventure by checking out the ability rooms or the challenge stages. I also gotta love some of the details such as the rainbow keyboard Magalor uses to control the ship, or the fact that there are multiple floating blocks moving around along with the giant screen in the main area. The music is nice as well, going for a sort of whimsical feel, signifying that even though things look bad, there is still a bright side to look forward to. Another one of my favorite locations is both Lon Lon Ranch and Kakariko Village from Zelda Ocarina of Time. Both have a slow and relaxing tone compared to Hyrule Field's adventurous and triumphant tone. They also feature folks you can talk to and see how happy they are living their lives blissfully unaware of what is happening in the rest of the world.

    @nico-tendo261 2 года назад +1

    Comet observatory is one of my favorites too but the music is what makes it great to me. As you progress through the game more and more instruments get added to the theme and that is a great touch

    You. You understand it. You get video games in the same way I do lol, I love these video topics etc, tiny moments and fav locations, video 'essays' on nostalgic games.. There's just so much more to these games than any non-gamer could understand, even some actual gamers. It's not just "reach goal, get point, fight" or just gameplay, kind of.. They're life changing experiences.

    Great Video as always! Your Video about your favorite Zelda locations, is my absolute favorite, so this one was as expected a Banger too!
    One little detail that I loved about one of your picks (spoiler ahead if you haven't seen the video):
    The Dragon from the Mario kart track, is also a bossfight in Super Mario Galaxy 2! Back then, when the track came with MK8 on the WiiU, I instantly recognized it, I love all the little details Nintendo does. :D

    I personally love Ricco Tower, the first platforming segment in Mario Sunshine. The cool Mario Bros. 1-1 background and giant wooden-block platforms, along with great background music, makes it one of the best in my opinion. I agree with all of your points, however; I love Terrey Town. Great work!

    Another banger video! One of the few times I can say I have an answer to what my “favorite” is. Without a doubt, the original house from Luigi’s Mansion. If I had the time and money, I would build a replica. Also I see you flexing that 100% Skyward Sword 😂

    I loved this video, some of my favorite places are Outset island 🏝 from Wind Waker, the look, the music, the heart worming idea of living with your grandma or parents in this place is amazing to me. Another one is Wuhu island, I’m from Puerto Rico so I’m an islander and that’s why I love this places so much. I’d love to bike around the island, stop at the house where you can hear Super Mario music and ask if I can join them to play. I’m with you with taking a boat ride with kappin, is so relaxing.

    I came up with this game based around wuhu, i think you'll the way i'd bring back the island
    Some sort of adventure game themed around wuhu island for Switch and why not for 3ds console.
    Heres the title:
    The Lost Civilization of Wuhu Island
    You just arrived at the wuhu town harbor with the queen peach, to enjoy your month of relaxation from all year long work, but as soon as you finish unpacking your bags at the cocoba hotel you decide to explore a bit the island at dawn before going to sleep. While traveling on car around the loop road of the island, you encounter the misterious ruins. You decide to stop, and check the ruins. After that, you decide to go back in town and talk with elderly locals and ask if they know anything about the ruins, they dont. After that, you return to cocoba hotel, and sleep. You wake up with the motivation of finding out who built the ruins, and this is where the Adventure trurly begins, you have to complete various tasks to obtain Nintendollars, used later to buy cosmetics for your Mii and buy equipment for the research, and the game diverges in different paths but all uniting at the end to find the truth about the ruins, when you finally finish the game, you can make daily quests to earn nintendollars to still customize your characters with a fully free roam wuhu and wedge island, including also multiplayer servers with which you can play with friends or all people around the world.
    P.S. i could write an idea also for the summerstone castle, tell me if you want me to or you write it, basicly would be the same thing but involves the royal family of wuhu etc.

    I LOVE Wuhu Island! I hope that, someday, we will get a game for the Switch where Wuhu Island will make a comeback. Doesn’t have to be sports related. Imagine like a Mii game on Wuhu Island with Animal Crossing and Stardew Village vibes. That would be amazing😌

    The Mansion from Luigi’s Mansion
    The Movie floor, the great stage and the pirate floors from Luigi’s Mansion 3.
    Cosmic Cove Galaxy
    Starshine Beach Galaxy
    Delfino Plaza
    The forest and bramble levels from DKC2
    Windmill hills and seashore war from DKCTF
    The trophy and credits cutscenes from MarioKart Wii
    The GameCube and Wii home screens
    The minor circuit vibe from Punch Out Wii
    The odyssey
    Driving up to Peach’s Castle in MK64
    The Wii, DSI and 3DS E-shops
    The results music (good and bad) for Wii Fit games.
    These aren’t all necessarily places but they all feel like it to me.
