I am going to upload some footage of Mr. Bubble on my second channel alt+f4mi very soon! I realized after shooting and editing that I didn't mention at all how the "motion features" are used in that game AT ALL, but, well... There is a reason for that. They just bound the "shaking" of the remote to one keyboard key. You can play the entire game without the remote and it's a better experience. It still sucks, but that tells you how much of an afterthought the remote was for them when designing that game.
posting this as a reply here as well as as a normal comment but see below. i'm a PS2 game collector who owns both the below named titles that aren't mr. bubble, but the name does ring some bells. just so you know, mr. bubble is actually a reskin of heracles: battle with the gods & cocoto platform jumper, both shovelware titles for th PS2 by Neko entertainment.

@@CrashFan03 another dumb bit of cocoto lore - cocoto kart racer and Heracles: chariot racing are also reskins of each other, and while i cannot confirm it properly as of yet, apparently cocoto funfair is the only ps2 lightgun game that doesn't work with the guncon-2, only the PS1's g-con 45
I got to play with an eeePeeCee when it was relatively fresh -- I was seven or eight. This was before I had much of a concept of what Linux was - and the other computer I used at the time was on Windows XP. I was amazed at how much it could do with only 4GB of storage -- and the fact said storage wasn't in a spinning disk. It felt futuristic. I remember playing Tux Racer on it. It was fun but I wasn't good at it. It ran fine on the device. Thank you for bringing back those memories (:
@@aldobonillaquiros7884 I used to use a phone app for that back in early 2010s. Can't remember the name but it turned my phone screen into a touchpad and it worked wonderfully.

@@5-Consecutive-Hairpin-Turns "is obtainable" in the present. we're not talking about the present here, we're talking about the Eee PC, thats what the video is about. yes, sherlie, people can get android devices that can run pretty decent 3D games CURRENTLY, but your anecdote of being able to run tux racer on a 17yo laptop (which isnt impressive since YES, decent laptops from 17yrs ago could do ir but they were MOST DEFINETELY NOT OBTAINABLE THEN) does not rly stands as a statement, i know this game, i know this era, and i have my reasons to think otherwise.

Wait, so the eeeStick sold for the eeePc assumed you would install windows to fully use it, while their obscure linux distro already struggled to run? Truly eee-nsane.
No way this video has the childhood game I've been searching for for years, Astro avenger 2 i never thought i would find the name of the game. Thank you eee stick game library and f4mi
Your description of Mr. Bubble unlocked a core meme-ory from my childhood. DuLuDuBi Star, an actual Super Mario Galaxy ripoff from Chinese amusement park company Fantawild. Weird bootleg knockoff that needed a JP locale to play, and chugged so hard on my old P4 machine that I just went back to SMG on my Wii at that point.
5:12 “I’m not installing Windows here, that would be torture.” Say that to some Asus branch which made a separate SKU for Russia which included a Windows XP on a TWO-GIGABYTE model.
I've seen this video get recommended a few times to me on my RUclips page, decided to give it a click; very very funny. Your presentation and general humor is great, the use of references isn't overbearing and super funny, content of the eeeeeeepeecee (lol) was really funny and so was how you delivered the whole thing. Actually amazing.
12:34 I really thought I listened to Hotline Miami soundtrack for the firsts seconds but it's the Plok Boss theme it fits so well omg this theme was ahead of its time
thank you for blessing us with a new video . I was given an eeeeeeeepecee 701 new when I started high school and proceeded to put a 8gb hcsd in it and use it to listen to bullet for my valentine and play adventure quest during class. This video was a great trip down memory lane.
2 min on the eeeeeeeePC and 11 on the nunchuck is... Normal actually, the epc is e waste in today standards (damm 480p and 4GB storage is criminal) Your editing is toptier (+ref) While writing this comment i noticed the 3/4 video format, ur a genius GG
9:20 oh my god, this game is actually just a 100% Klonoa rip off! Right down to the 2.5D rotating perspective and even the DOUBLE JUMP animation and everything it's identical lmao
i almost bought one of these lol. we used to have a computer store in san marino ca, great place.. i miss the days you could actually go to a brick and mortar to either build a custom PC or buy a quick little niknak like this. i only actually needed the thing as a forwarding device, but found a better solution on the wayside.

@@schtormmits like the biggest companies make the worst crap
first thing that came to mind when f4mi did the "AA" bit the first thing i thought of was "retro dankpods"

Wow Eee PC video on Italian Girl channel instead of usual Australian Man
This was a literal 'the important thing was are the friends we make along the way' type of episode. I love it.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who pronounced AA batteries like that
no one makes videos quite like yours, there's this great individuality and style that i just love
"We got some AAH! batteries" Fucking killed me lmaoooooo
Early 00s and Electronics companies' obsession with making weird tech will forever be unsurpassed
The DankPods references are killing me🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Was half expecting her to say “Someone’s been in here!!!!!!” 😂😂😂😂
had an EeePC before and played an FPS game semi-competitively on it
It gave me my daily dose of rage inducing lag for at least 3 years
Wow baby Linus, what a throw back!
I really like how the media coverage and critical acclaim footage is exclusively Linus on a CRT. Flawless.
zumba was my grandpa's favorite game put some respect on its name
Eee eee eeee, its in the eeeeeee

Must resist making a DankPods joke... 😅
Also 7:38 James May in the wild 🤣
Man the quality of the production just keeps getting better!
“Don’t make me use the eeepc. I hate the eeepc!” -DankPods
omg I completely forgot about that macbook air ad existing, what a memory
3:12 big dankpods vibe to this
Dude i remember seeing one of these way back in 2009, my grandma almost bought me one as a kid thinking it was a legit wii console at one point 💀
Whoa, that outro music threw me off guard! I dont know where it's from but I had a cellphone that had that tune a long time ago...
Damn, didn't expect the Plok music at the end. Great video as always!
fami is becoming a nuggeteer with this one
love the references, congrats with 100K!
"Do you like hurting people" - That appeals to more people than you'd think
I'm guessing F4mi has watched DankPods
I love your videos so much 😭😭❤️
foreshadowing this video with a hidden logo on a portal gun in the last video, well done
3:31 "AA!"
“They have this Tom Cruise lookalike, but maybe I’m wrong, maybe it’s just Bobby with that tool” was like getting kicked in the head by a horse
