I remember seeing the Wiiware Pokemon Mystery Dungeon games covered on Serebii and I was forever excited to see them here in Europe. I wanted to get Light Squad :')
Didn't think I'd see you here in the comments RT. I grew up with Red Rescue Team and later got both Explorers of Sky and Gates to Infinity. Happy to say that it's definitely one of my favorite game series ever
Hi dad
The pain of being European :'')
Those games never got released outside of Japan but there is a fantranslation in english
I want faint when
About 10 years ago I decided to try playing the Pokemon Trading Card Game sequel with an English patch, but the patch wasn't actually finished so eventually it went back to Japanese and I got stuck at a trainer who wouldn't let me battle them no matter which dialog option I selected. So I had to start learning some Japanese characters just so I could progress. And I never stopped, so thank you person who didn't finish the patch for being the reason I became bilingual
What was the trainer saying once You learned japanesse that wouldnt let You fight them? :)
PS. Congrats on learning a new language
@@patriciobatumanjr.4151 Thanks! I don't remember exactly what the trainer said, but they were requiring my deck to fulfill certain conditions in order to battle them
Nowadays people would just use google lens and translate it in real time. This is either good or bad.
@@romanski5811 I'm not sure how well it would work. The Japanese characters in that game are REALLY pixelated.
Based af
5:57 I’m more curious on why they haven’t brought the Pokemon TCG Online game to Switch.
Also I think it’d be cool if as a bonus for Nintendo Switch Online, we could get access to lost media and beta elements. Can’t leak anything if you already release it yourself.
Doubt it’d happen.
Regarding the Sega Pico Pokemon games. I think a relaunch of the Pico would’ve done well if they had a Pokemon game as part of the launch lineup
Probably first do a gb/gba online
I'm more surprised by the fact that there's no Japanese version of PTCGO or similar.
Nintendo is somehow extremely greedy yet extremely lazy.
They released Star Fox 2 on the SNES Classic, so I think releasing nearly complete games and new localizations may be on the table.
Can you do every Digimon Game That Never Left Japan? There's a _lot_ of lost media there too, I doubt you could even find video or screenshots of some of them. I've certainly tried finding pictures and footage of the US-exclusive CD that came with the D-Power US-exclusive version of the D-Ark Digivice
their are some china and korea only too
I remember reading about the exclusive mystery dungeon games. The sega pico is interesting too. Probably could of been an idea behind like actual drawing/gaming tablets of nowadays
Actually that Tamoaki game and watch style game did in fact make it to the US but it was on the Gameboy camera as a mini game
I see you showed the pokemon convention picture with the infamous pikachu bounce house.
Isn't the tomoaki imakuni character also in the Trading Card GBC game? Working off of fading memories here.
Every game AMERICAN never got
I loved the TCG on the Game Boy Color, so I was really disappointed when it didn't make it across the ocean. :(
I honestly never knew about any of these.
18:05 THE ADVANCED PICO WHAAAAAAT?!?!?
Someone need to make a meme of that dancing Chespin
17:00 it's a Picochu
18:08 The WHAT!!?
What about mystery dungeon on the switch
9:16 "pokemon mini had one of the last games where jynx had her original skin color"... on a black and white console? YA DONT SAYYY 😂
Holy carp I do remember reading about that PMD demo on the PC. Such a shame it still hasn't been found, but I'm glad yall are asking for assistance with finding, hoping someone out there has it!!!
'Holy carp'. Love it. I'm using that forever now.
@@HotMudrs nerd
Gen 3 really was the generation of experimental spinoffs.
All the more baffling that Nintendo keeps ignoring the Gamecube and GBA era. It was so experimental and not all of us grew up solely on the SNES and N64
Not really. Gen 1 was. Snap, Pinball, Hey You Pikachu, etc.
More like the world was starting to see this wasn't a fad and wasn't going away so everyone wanted to milk the cash cow. For fans more content, win win.
@@Vulpas Sometimes, on the internet, "etc." just means "that's really all I got"
@@NerdHerdForLife And sometimes people are dumb. Thanks for illustrating that. There was more experimental spinoffs revolving around gen 1 too, like Pokemon Trading Card Game (Game Boy) which was a full fledged JRPG, and the Pocket Pikachu, not to mention the majority of the Pokemon Mini's (a dedicated game system for Pokemon games) games revolved around gen 1.
Cope.
+1:30 one more thing about imakuni, he plays a HUGE role in the Gameboy release of Pokemon TCG, and that trainer card that is shown on screen actually confuses your own pokemon in battle 🤣 he was like the Tingle of Pokemon
If I recall correctly, that card confuses the Pokémon of the player who plays it. So it's counterproductive to play. And the character wasn't that important. You could finish both games without actually engaging with him.
@@MaxRavenclaw i mean yes and no, if you beat him he gives you a bunch of packs so he’s a huge resource and he’s just a cool unique character that even got his own IRL card eventually. If you’re stuck in the game you can just beat him, save and reset, rinse and repeat until you got the cards you need. But that card haha.. Imagine using that in a real battle and winning 😂
Funny Pico story. About 3 years ago I pulled up to a Chevron gas station and as I was getting gas, I noticed a Sega pico in the trash can. It was super random. I pulled it out and it had all the wires and 2 storybooks. Took it home, cleaned it up and it worked perfectly. I was blown away. Why would someone throw this away? I sold it on eBay about a month later for $70.
Thats wack
Thats really awesome. I had a Pico as a kid and it was sitting in my mom’s garage for like 20 years. We had to hastily clean out the garage and so I thiught about holding onto it and seeing if it worked but it was literally covered in dust and I didnt really have the time or space for it so I had to throw it out sadly. I almost hope it didnt work anymore or Id feel even worse lol
@@Granadico you didn't have to throw it out
Just for the record, the Japan exclusive Pokemon Mini games all have fan translations into English available, and emulate quite well. If you're one of the few nerds to actually own one there is a (rather expensive) flash cart to play those translations on the actual console as well, but that flash cart is currently rather hard to get due to parts shortages and they're only being made by a small team.
I liked the e-Reader minigames in the TCG, they actually made me more interested in the game for a while.
I loved the concept of the e-reader peripheral with the trading card game. I loved my e-reader to death and played with it endlessly as a teen. good ol memories.
How has the title still not been corrected?
Trading Card Game 2 is also fun because the opponents on the second island have deckbuilding requirements that you have to meet (like having at least four pikachu in your deck, or having only type of energy). It was a welcome change from the first game, where you can just make a single good deck and steamroll everyone with it.
Well technically, the remake mystery dungeon on the switch is also on a home console. Not just the 3 Wii games.
You mentioned the Wii version of Mystery Dungeon as being the only time it appeared on a home console.
I was going to assume you didn't count the Switch as a home console given Rescue Team DX released on the system, but in a previous Pokemon video you did count it as one when talking about Sword and Shield being the first mainline entries on a home console.
Me: Literally has access to any GBA game I could ever want to play on PC and phone.
Also me: Wow, red rescue team on PC? Wish I could play that.
Okay nerd
I wish bad luck to people holding lost media hostage
I'll be completely honest, I can't stand people who hoard otherwise unobtainable games for themselves. Like, I get you're a collector, but what the hell is a ROM gonna do for you? It ain't worth anything for you monetarily since you're just hoarding it. Wtf is the point? Dude's like that one kid who refuses to share their toys. Its just dumb.
And yes, I know its just a fishing minigame that most people would put down after about 10 minutes, but still. Selfish people like this are a big part of why video game preservation is so difficult.
Imagine when those people pass on and their children inherit their collection just to break it up or sell it off. They'll be rolling in their coffins so fast they'll power the whole grid for months.
Man, we've been getting robbed of all these titles
Ikr
The Pokémon company denying their fans content that they want is just a standard business practice that they and most companies do.
*Robing Downloading...*
@@MasterArchfiend Most of these are made for preschoolers bro
Not really you are not entitled to everything, nor do you own it.
I like how the title says American never got. WHICH AMERICAN!!! 😭
Pokemon is the japanese version of Disney, to fully experience everything the brand has to offer, you need to visit or live in their respective countries, I don't think its a good pratice for overall profit but I can understand that cultural diff would cause some failure with some products, both for Disney 'n Pokemon
Interesting thought. Reminded me of Disney/Marvel Studios marketing material in China and the whole deal with Jynx's original design... but I'll leave it at that, because comments sections are political enough as is. Going back to your point, you can't trust a committee from one culture to decide what's right for another. I mean, Ninty didn't set out to make Zelda super popular in the West, yet here we are.
lol no, Pokemon is not the Japanese Disney. TCPI isn't buying out other franchises to make an evil monopoly.
@@svenbtb They aren't even close to a Monopoly, and there's nothing evil about it. Drinking the Kool-Aid much?
While certainly not the deepest level of research needed to "uncover" it, I will always appreciate the level of focus given to Card GB 2. :) Honest to God better than RBY ever was, the TCG games. So much fun
On another note, I love the coverage of the e-Reader games. They don't have much coverage online!! I didn't even know there were ones exclusive to Japanese events
not even close to better lol
Even random limited spin off aren't free from the blight of rom hoarders.
I have a feeling the typing game issue was that although it was already in English, they may not have felt like redoing it for American spellings. Annoying though.
Honesty most of these Pokémon games won't sell well outside of Japan.
love how one guy is holding onto the game refuding to release the rom. What a child lol
Pretty common with collectors of the rarer titles sadly, the rarer the game the harder it is to get a dump, assuming it's even legit and some later were found to be faked.
@@cericat It just sucks cuz it's always entirely in the hands of someone who may end of losing it forever but I guess there is nothing that can be done about it :/
@@cheeseisgood17 yeah sadly true, I know people who were involved with trying to archive every Dreamcast game that was ever made they can, and sometimes it's also a matter of you only have a finite time to do so, a lot of media does degrade over time. There's games from when I was a kid that are lost as tapes decayed, dye on rewritable discs has degraded to unreadable... *sighs*
I'm not surprised that Learn with Pokémon: Typing Adventure, for the DS, didn't make it on the list as that game came out in other regions except for North America (and other Asia regions). Fans believe this game could've localized over here, but I had my doubt at the time, due to how smartphones and tablet devices were so popular in the early 2010s, the game might reach a low sale.
Would be great if you guys did a video featuring Pokemon Comaster/Duel and, freelanced capcom artist, Hideki Ishikawa's contribution to Pokemon.
Anybody really.
At least these games didn't have a big impact on the cannon unlike the Digimon wonderswan games.
I own one of these lmao. No clue what's going on tho or how to play
17:27 here in Chile, the word "pico" means beak, but "pico" is also a slang for "penis". So yeah, "Pico for everyone" made me laugh please help
I keep forgetting that Imakuni is not actually an original name and that one vinesauce girl was just so inspired by that guy's doofy outfit
In primary school I traded a Neopets tamagotchi thing for the first Pokemon TCG game and it was the best trade I ever made. I played the heck out of that game. I didn't know there were english translations of the sequel so... I know what I'm doing rn
I haven't even finished your bit about this game but... I loved the Gameboy Trading Card game. It was amazing. (Back then, at my age. 🤣)
It’s on the 3DS Virtual Console for a reason. It was fire
@@MrZer093 I doubt I would find it as fun as I use to but I have a few months to change my mind I guess. 🤣😑😑 I mean it is inevitable but still.
It's still really good. The sequel is also good and you can find a english translated version rom easily.
Imakuni is actually in the TCG game boy games (both of them) and can be dueled in a game of cards. He is typically terrible and the card named after him confuses your own Pokemon. But he rewards you with one of every booster pack in the first one so he was worth finding (would appear randomly).
Here is a trick I did to farm him for the packs. 1. Load the game up.
2. Go check each “gyms” break room/area and he will be at one of the book shelves facing the wall.
3. Beat him in battle.
4. After you beat him save and quit. 5. Rinse and repeat.
6. Profit. 😎
11:18 What about the mystery dungeon remake on the switch? Or maybe the switch isn't considered a home console. I definitely think it should be though, I play my switch primarily on the tv.
It's about games that didn't come to the west, the mystery dungeon remake is a global game, hence why it isn't listed
@@alecrhea5773 but it’s still not accurate to say it wasn’t on a home console
I'm pretty sure I saw that on the eshop actually.
People in the replies... Please listen to the video at the timestamp. Morffin22 here is replying to the comment that these exclusive mystery dungeon games are the only time the series has released on a home console.
Whoa, that's a lotsa unreleased Pokémon games on the west.
You mean East, the United States is on the west. Japan is on the East:
There are English patches for PTCG2. It is fun. Using an emulator really speeds things up.
Ah so it's not an unreleased official version? I remember the map so thinking I downloaded a rom sometime long ago...
Ah watched on; not an official translation according to the video.
I appreciate the pokemon trading card game sequel being among the first titles mentioned in the video. I remember hearing about the sequel as a kid. I was so excited and waited and waited, but it never came.
I remember getting into Pokémon Mini roms. That togepi is awesome haha. Pokemon Tetris is really good too
Shouldn’t the the title be America instead of American?
I cannot stress enough how hard that Chespin was getting down 🤯
"the only time mystery dungeon has appeared on a home console" The switch is a home console/handheld hybrid, so wouldn't the remake of the first game constitute a Mystery dungeon on a home console?
Also, Wii U Virtual Console.
@@NitroIndigo That doesn't count, as they're unmodified games running through emulators.
It'd be like saying they released BOTW on PC because it's running through CEMU.
@@shiftfire4511 kinda but that's not an official legal release and it's not a release by nintendo. It's a bit different.
Typo in the title. It should either be "EVERY Pokemon Game America Never Got" or "EVERY Pokemon Game Americans Never Got"
I remember seeing footage of that Korean Rescue Team game YEARS ago. I figured by now that would be been out there and people would of already messed with the rom but I guess not. I'm looking forward to whenever and/or whoever finds it and shares it around.
Interesting that DYKGaming did not note that Iwakuni actually features in all releases of the Gameboy Color Pokemon Trading Card Game videogame. Nice to finally have context to what I always assumed was just Nintendo being weird.
22:11 That pronunciation hurt my soul. Its said like "DIE-SKI", and is Japanese for big-like (like love in English)
I really wish moders and hackers did more with the ereader always wanted to see what it could do pushed to its limits
@Chase Adams not at all what im saying. Im talking about making games using the eReader. As shown in this video nintendo released a series of mini games that you could play. Every last part of those games (images, mechanics, sounds, controls, ect) were stored in a barcode/qrcode like system that you scanned to transfer the code into the eReader. What im saying is id like to have seen that pushed to its limits. People are still making nes games to this day just to see how far they can push a 30+ year old system and what they can get out of it. This is the same idea. What is the largest game somone could make using it. Somone literally made a version of doom that runs on a pregnancy test. How has somone not atempted to do somthing similar with ereader.
The Pokemon mini isn't completely lost media. But it requires playing Pokemon Channel a lot.
i 100%'d that thing at least twice :D
gets a lot of shit. but it's "kinda" rewarding in the end. anime episode (even in japanese, which we don't see at all in the west), the games, jirachi in the pal versions
That makes it lost media. Pokemon Channel is approved by the CIA as a torture method 🙃
I hope that Mystery Dungeon game is found!! Thank you for making the most incredible videos on RUclips!! :D
I uhh think your title has a typo
"EVERY Pokemon Game *American* Never Got" ... Thats a good use of the English language right there
Till this day, Ronald's theme is one of the best pokemon game music of all time
21:54
This is the reason I ask, why there's no port of PTCO in the switch?
I mean, Konami has Yugioh Master Duel
These Japanese titles be like "Pokemon Super Ultra Generation Power League Rocket Reader Math Adventure Giga Book Learning HD Remix Deluxe, the Sequel"
"The last game to feature Jynx's original skin color"
> game is monochrome
1:21 among us
1:30 get out my head get out of my head GET OUT OF MY HEAD!!
There's a typo in the title. "American"
There's an error in the title. It should be "Americans" or "America".
15:15 Huh so _that's_ why Kega supports the roms, even if many are wildly unplayable.
I had a Sega Pico when I was a kid I didnt even realize until I was older that it was the same people who made the Genesis. I live in USA, would have loved to have that on my Pico as a kid.
seeing that there was a pokemon picross game before the one available on 3ds was surprising, and i'm surprised that the title that Was released worldwide wasn't mentioned at all, like "hey this pokemon picross NP game wasn't accessible but there is an actual pokemon picross game you can download and play" or like "you may have heard of the pokemon picross title for 3ds but did you know there was one beforehand???"
anyway the actual pokemon picross game is underrated and kinda cool
I think there's a type-o in the title of the video?
Just a heads up, there's a typo in your title: "AMERICAN Never Got"
While not a game, the Satellaview add-on for the Super Famicom had a digital magazine focusing on the TCG that covered things like tips, news about upcoming base/promo sets and official events.
"EVERY Pokemon Game American Never Got"
RIP Hudson. They made awesome Games...
7 months later and it still says American instead of America. Probably done to get people like me to comment lol
Excuse me! I take exception to your claim that this is EVERY Pokemon game that never left Japan. What about Pokemon Tretta Lab for the 3DS? Unless I missed something, you completely missed it. It's probably the most fascinating title that never left Japan and you somehow don't even acknowledge it?! It came with the accessory that was only sized for the original 3DS model, and could read your Tretta puck things, these little pog-like things you'd collect for the Tretta arcade game, and could be played with in this 3DS version, where you could analyze 2 of your own Tretta pucks at once and could auto battle. It's really fascinating, and you missed it!
I think maybe it technically doesn't count as a game that never left Japan because it wasn't released in Japan either? Though that's only a guess based on the official websites which lists the regions as Hong Kong, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, and Taiwan. Seems really interesting though
@@Lismakingmovie according to Wikipedia it only released in Japan. The writing is definitely in Japanese in the game too.
@@BlinksAwakening I commented asking the same thing. Wiki says no such thing about it not being released outside of Japan though. That's only true for the 3DS accessory. The arcades were released in several Asian countries though, as pointed out by @LJ
@@seanarend8566 The arcade version may have appeared in other countries but the 3DS version was restricted to Japan as far as all sources indicate.
@@BlinksAwakening That's literally exactly what I said. lmao
you mean... America, right? not "American" because that, grammatically, is incorrect
Poor American. He deserved these games
I don't know what's more amazing, Pokemon on Sega Pico or the fact that the Pico outlived both the Sega Saturn _and_ the Sega Dreamcast. Actually that's a lie, it's the later, obviously.
How in the actual Falz?
Mystery Dungeon DX is released on a home console…
I get so excited when a new DYKG video comes out :-) Japanese media is so fascinating to me as an American. There is a certain wacky charm, and I wish they would try an American release with things like these.
Why was Pokemon Tretta never mentioned? The arcades are available outside of Japan, sure (but not in the west), but the 3DS accessory was only released in Japan. Also, the arcade game itself is really fun.
Tretta also in the Philippines also in English tho.
@@FRANZTENDO64Philippines your point?
The Philippines is where I got to
Play it too.
My point was that while the Tretta machines *did* technically “leave” Japan, as they made it to other Asian countries (seeing as the video title mentions games “that never left Japan”), the accompanying 3DS accessory was only released in Japan, thereby making that particular game/accessory exclusive to Japan. So the 3DS part of it should have made the list.
"Pico" is slang for penis in Chile. So, "Pico for everyone" made me lost my coffee.
why is the title of the video wrong? did you knotice?
The game with two Pichu is based of the Pikachu short “ Camp Pikachu”
I’M SORRY THE ADVANCED PICO WHAT???? 18:00
I was very caught off guard
I'm always surprised we have never got a home/handheld console release of another Pokémon TCG.
That even TCG Live and TCG online were never brought to the west
Yeah, same. I think they just wanted to go in a different direction with the tcg (so they could sell more cards :p)
TCG Online did come to the west and TCG Live is currently a beta in certain countries though?
@@lilylopnco Yes, but as I said its odd they skipped over Nintendo's handhelds and home consoles especially how popular the Yugioh games were.
Even Pokémon TCG Live is skipping the Switch.
to think there were so many some I get why they didn't make it to the west but some I don't understand at all
Major regrets for not buying every single e-Reader card pack when they were available.
I can't believe that picross isn't popular in the west. They're my favorite.
So sad that american never got these games 😂 proof read your titles guys
The sega pico segment got Advanced Adventure stuck in my head lol
Pokemon on the SEGA Pico feels illegal
Lmao what is that title
