The 2010's equivalent would be "Totally Lit". Jake: "This magic show is so lit! Zeb is a beasty magician!" Alison: "Jake, help! These guys are kidnapping me! That's so problematic!"
0:56 There is someone at my school named Rad On his first day, I gave him a tour of the school. And after the tour I said "Hope you have a rad time at our school" and ran. Let's just say he hasn't talked to me since.
YOU'RE GOING TOTALLY RAD MY GOD NURSE! BRING ME THE DEFIBRILLATOR! HE'S GONE _TOTALLY RAD_ *INTENSE HUFFING* HE'S DOING DISCO *_WITHOUT_* THE *_MUSIC_*
the spinning in the air would suggest that it is also from Metroid. They are definitely right at like 6:07 everything in this game is a slightly shittier version of something else. *Cough cough* Mega Man *cough cough* Metroid *cough projectile vomit cough.*
When I was young I played Super Mario 64 from 7:30pm to 8am straight. I got up and nearly fell down the steps because my mind was convinced I could make gravity my bitch and just double jump flip.
Josef Woods One night I had played Minecraft for about 5 hours straight. As I was going to bed, I thought "Better leave the light on so mobs don't spawn" Then I realized what I had just thought.
***** My best one was when I was playing Halo 3 and my mom was trying to get my attention. I was looking around in the game for a good 30 seconds before I realized what I was doing.
One time I played Kirby for 4 hours straight and when I had dinner we (we had macaroni with tomato gravy) and I saw a parmesan cheese ball and instead of putting it on my plate I was like "hell yeah I'll be a bad motherfucker and suck in this cheese ball and spit out the star on my plate and then the little star bits will be cheese and cover my plate and I sucked it in and choked on it and all of the cheese powdery stuff came out of my mouth and sprinkled all over the plate perfectly so my plan KINDA worked
Also another time I played super mario galaxy for a while straight and saw my brother and he was bothering me so I pointed my hand at him and kept hitting my thumb in my palm like I was trying to shoot star bits at him.
Apparently the plot of this game is that Jake(or 'John' in Japan for some reason) is Zeb's apprentice, but then his girlfriend -Lumpy Space Princess- Alllison is kidnapped for some reason that apparently involves her dad being an incredible scientist and there's an evil king and mole people involved. I don't even know.
I'm calling it: either Zebediah is going to be the main villain and/or the ending is going to be a total copout and he was just testing Jake to see if he would be a totally rad magician.
Wrong on both guesses! I played the game all the way through. Zebediah IS a menber of the underground monster people that are the enemies of the game but he's an exiled renegade so he's NOT on ther side!
think about it, this game is based entirely on an old pop culture way of speaking. If a game like this was made today, it would be called "swag", or something along those lines.
This is one of the best Game Grumps episodes. This game is amazing, not even ironically, the humor is great, the music is cute, game is fun. And, their stories are amazing. AND and, it's extra long. This is one I save for when I really need a pick-me-up.
14:35 Omg I only just noticed... it's a cob of corn, and he's flexing to produce popcorn projectiles lol I donno how many times I've seen this video without realizing that.
16:54 - 17:05 xD This was totally me with Ape Escape 3 for the PS2! I thought Kei and Yumi's victory dances were so cool that I tried imitating them a few times... The other kids were just like "wtf you kooky bastard" x'D
I love how every time Arin used the health boost, Danny would interrupt whatever he was saying to go "YEAH!" then continue on like nothing happened. The best :D
“Jake, communicate telepathically from now on.“ Oh yea, sure Zeb. I’ll just start doing something I never learned how to do, nor did you teach me how to do.
How could you hate a game this utterly batshit and ridiculous? (also, Totally Rad was the inspiration for the beginning of Kid Radd, one of the best webcomics ever)
I've played this game all the way through, and theyr'e missing a big element of it. When you pause, it brings up a menu where you can select different kinds of magic. Besides the restore-life spell, there's also spells that let you call down avananches of boulders, transform into an eagle, and other things. Every other stage has a different "big" boss at the end, which is kind of impressive since you don't expect such massive enemies in an NES platformer! If you take a close look that first "big" boss is the monster in the cover art. I love how crazy some of the enemy designs in this game are! Somebody had a lot of fun designing this!
Daiyuki117 Nonono not that one but i love Castle Crashers and know the corn boss you're talking about. I saw one in the video and was too lazy to add the time.
Holy crap, I haven't seen that game for like 15 years! They dodn't even use the transformation power. This game needs to be revisited please! This video brought me back to my childhood and I would love to see more gameplay on this from the Grumps!
I'd rather listen to a surfer dude say "Dude, totally radical, man!" than one of today's kids speak Internet acronyms aloud. "EL-OH-EL, JAY KAY! DOUBLE-U TEE EFF bae!" Ugh, I die a little inside every time I hear shit like that.
Aww, you guys didn't even try the magic. You can turn into a fish, an angel, a lion, make earthquakes and bubbles and shit. All from the start. I feel like this one needs a do-over.
+FunderbunkPlays The biggest mistake people make with this game is never bringing up the pause menu. I'm not saying this is the best game ever but it's definitely overlooked. It's not easy, either. But much easier if you know about your abilities and use them properly.
+XXPedia yeah it's 550 feet, shorter than the stratosphere but it's still the largest ferris wheel in the world ^.^ it's super fun, almost an exact replica of the london eye. and the view is amazing ^.^
There's so much unexplored territory in this game... they didn't even try the transformation spells. Hell, they didn't bring up the spell menu at all, they just used the full-heal spell. You can transform into a ninja, a bird, and a tiger... how rad is that?! Also, the dialogue gets so much better. For example, this exchange between Allison and Jake: Allison: Jake, I'm like really nervous. Like, my dad tried to save me. And now they've got him too. I don't know what they've done with him. Jake: No way! He's the gnarliest professor on the coast. So, it's your dad they really want! Allison: Jake, I kinda want my dad back, you know? Jake: That's totally understandable. Wow, how about if I save him? That's just pure gold.
"I feel like I'm partially rad." I can't believe Dan missed an oppertunity to call himself radish.
Reilly Old comment, but ya gotta know, that would’ve made my day!
I respect it
There's no radishes in my garage.
I can't believe _Arin_ missed an opportunity to call Dan "radish".
I died at "JAKE THEY'RE LIKE STEALING ME OR SOMETHING!"
He sounds like LSP!!! XDDDD
Kallie Morgan HOLY SHIT YES!!!!
Kallie Morgan this comment... I lost my shit XD
This game was originally called "Magic John" in Japan. Then the localizers watched Bill & Ted and Teen Witch and this was the 90's result.
happysquidNET well that’s one question answered
The 2010's equivalent would be "Totally Lit".
Jake: "This magic show is so lit! Zeb is a beasty magician!"
Alison: "Jake, help! These guys are kidnapping me! That's so problematic!"
Bless those localizers for giving us this gem of a game
@@spaomalley Nah that's 2016
I refuse to believe that people can be intimidated by Danny
I'd be intimidated by how attractive he is
chloe mcconnell I'd be intimidated by how TOTALLY RAD he is
I dunno, he could probably kick my ass.
I mean...almost everyone has the ability to be intimidating. Dan definitely CAN be intimidating, just not to us.
Maybe on a bad day.
THE WORLD'S GONE MAD!
No Dan, the world's gone rad...

Dan should totally wear that rad look-alike as a bangin' cosplay, it would be, like, totally righteous.
No, it would be totally rad.

That sounds like totally far out

The Ultra-Gamer Dude, totally phat
The intro to this game is legendary
that voice arin does "MOST EXCELLENT DUDE" makes me die laughing every time
Joey Paris Haha me too
I dunno, I think the girl getting stolen dialog was pretty astounding
Especially when the Game Grumps narrate it XD
Ras Tafari more like it's totally rad
0:56
There is someone at my school named Rad
On his first day, I gave him a tour of the school. And after the tour I said "Hope you have a rad time at our school" and ran.
Let's just say he hasn't talked to me since.
Update on Rad; a year and a half later, we're sorta friends. I mentioned the whole "rad time" incident, he does not remember. Smh
I like the updates on Rad's story. You should keep doing it, I want to know how it ends
Gib update naow
Only every year and a half
update: rad is dead
YOU'RE GOING TOTALLY RAD

For a NES game, it has good graphics. I didn't expect a game named "Totally Rad" to do something right.
sounds like you've been watching AVGN. I want to see Game Grumps play a game made by LJN.

Danny's 90's girl voice cracks me up everytime.
4:24
Dan: "I feel that I'm not rad enough. I feel like I'm partially rad."
Does that mean you're...
radish?
* *ba-dum-tss* *
This game looks like it really, REALLY wanted to be the surfer/skater version of Mega Man.
Gnarly, duu....ammit wily!
I was absolutely thinking that. Even the interface.
a lot of nes plat-former games with indirect attacks had a basic attack that went straight forward.
the spinning in the air would suggest that it is also from Metroid. They are definitely right at like 6:07 everything in this game is a slightly shittier version of something else. *Cough cough* Mega Man *cough cough* Metroid *cough projectile vomit cough.*
"jake they're like stealing me or something" hahaha best game line ever
0:56
I checked; there's 862 people named Rad living in the United States.
Best name ever huh? (Nice profile pic :3 Kuzuryu)
That's pretty rad dude
Out of like 250 million that's a sadly not rad amount.
My cousin's name is rad!
Cyndasaur Now, that's rad! :3
Who else tried to double jump as a kid?
When I was young I played Super Mario 64 from 7:30pm to 8am straight. I got up and nearly fell down the steps because my mind was convinced I could make gravity my bitch and just double jump flip.
Josef Woods One night I had played Minecraft for about 5 hours straight. As I was going to bed, I thought "Better leave the light on so mobs don't spawn" Then I realized what I had just thought.
***** My best one was when I was playing Halo 3 and my mom was trying to get my attention. I was looking around in the game for a good 30 seconds before I realized what I was doing.
One time I played Kirby for 4 hours straight and when I had dinner we (we had macaroni with tomato gravy) and I saw a parmesan cheese ball and instead of putting it on my plate I was like "hell yeah I'll be a bad motherfucker and suck in this cheese ball and spit out the star on my plate and then the little star bits will be cheese and cover my plate and I sucked it in and choked on it and all of the cheese powdery stuff came out of my mouth and sprinkled all over the plate perfectly so my plan KINDA worked
Also another time I played super mario galaxy for a while straight and saw my brother and he was bothering me so I pointed my hand at him and kept hitting my thumb in my palm like I was trying to shoot star bits at him.
Whenever Dan is this enthusiastic about something, my day just turns good, no matter my previous mood.
Apparently the plot of this game is that Jake(or 'John' in Japan for some reason) is Zeb's apprentice, but then his girlfriend -Lumpy Space Princess- Alllison is kidnapped for some reason that apparently involves her dad being an incredible scientist and there's an evil king and mole people involved.
I don't even know.
I came from future to say this game is *TOTALLY RAD*
I'm calling it: either Zebediah is going to be the main villain and/or the ending is going to be a total copout and he was just testing Jake to see if he would be a totally rad magician.
Wrong on both guesses! I played the game all the way through. Zebediah IS a menber of the underground monster people that are the enemies of the game but he's an exiled renegade so he's NOT on ther side!
0:20 you sound like Lumpy Space Princess!!
I know, right! I was about to point that out!
hEgehEYH
GO to trUthCoNteSTcom< rEAd THe pResent4``5
Just about to post that too lol OH MY GLOB!!!
***** I don't know.. there's a certain... extra shallowness that goes with LSP. Surfer girls just don't tend to have that supreme vapidness.
Elle b LMAO
I wish my name was Rad, then formal conversations could begin with "Oh you must be... Rad?"
"YES, yes I am."
When I watched this, all that came to mind was Mega Man. Did this remind anyone else of mega man?
*mindles* YES i banana
It totally reminded me of Mega man!
Zero Blue definitely it did
Zero Blue Jump and Shoot!
I think you mean JUMP 'N SHOOT MAN!
think about it, this game is based entirely on an old pop culture way of speaking. If a game like this was made today, it would be called "swag", or something along those lines.

"Totally" and "Rad" are your favorite words?
Mine are "swood" and "grommet".
This is one of the best Game Grumps episodes. This game is amazing, not even ironically, the humor is great, the music is cute, game is fun. And, their stories are amazing. AND and, it's extra long. This is one I save for when I really need a pick-me-up.
Man, this game is like, and I quote "totally decent"
Like, fersure.

Alright! Time to watch Game Grumps!

*passes out from fear*
14:35
Omg I only just noticed... it's a cob of corn, and he's flexing to produce popcorn projectiles lol
I donno how many times I've seen this video without realizing that.
16:54 - 17:05
xD This was totally me with Ape Escape 3 for the PS2! I thought Kei and Yumi's victory dances were so cool that I tried imitating them a few times... The other kids were just like "wtf you kooky bastard" x'D
0:16 That was the fucking AWESOMEST WAY TO SAY DUDE I HEARD IN ALL MY LIFE XD
Barry always does an amazing job with the editing 'n stuff.
9:37 Still my favorite Grumps moment of all time
would this game also be called Totallyman or MegaRad
Ha, pretty clever.
+Alex OmegaBeast What about Totallymega or Radman?
Cursio Neptune Totally Mega.... who knew?
XD
I accidentally misread that as MegaRed and was like "the fuck does this have to do with sentai?"
When he did the voice for the girl it sounded like lumpy space princess from adventure time:-)
Lumpy Space Grumps!
Game Lumps?
Haha
I thought the same thing. Drama booomb!
Am i the only one who thought he sounded like one of the goth kids in south park.
This game has the best health recovery mechanic ever conceived.
Pretty sure those green dudes in the first part were master chief
"I'm 6'2" and a T H I C C dude"
the voice that arin does in this episode slays me every time
I love how every time Arin used the health boost, Danny would interrupt whatever he was saying to go "YEAH!" then continue on like nothing happened. The best :D
“Jake, communicate telepathically from now on.“
Oh yea, sure Zeb. I’ll just start doing something I never learned how to do, nor did you teach me how to do.
This game consists of: 85% Mega Man, 14% Pop culture.
The extra 1% doesn't exist.
It's sad they never figured out how to transform to Jake's other forms.
Loved this game as a kid even though it's weird.
This game is totally hip and with it, dudes and dudettes.
I just about died at "WHO WERE THOSE DWEEBS ANYWAAAAAAAAAAAAAY"
1:50
So basically any 80s action movie
How could you hate a game this utterly batshit and ridiculous?
(also, Totally Rad was the inspiration for the beginning of Kid Radd, one of the best webcomics ever)
The main character looks like a young Spike Spiegel.
Lol completely forgot that brief moment Dan sounds like lumpy space princess
+Blank Blanky and then the main character is named jake... how the fuck did that happen
When I was in 5th grade around 1995, there was a kid named Radley. It always made me laugh.
I vote Jason as new smash bros character
He'd be a totally rad one, too
Who's Jason? I thought the main character's name was Jake?
DUDE
JAKE IS KEANU REAVES IN BILL AND TED'S EXCELLENT ADVENTURE
THEY EVEN SAID EXCELLENT IN THE INTRO
DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUDE
Animation starts at 0:00 btw. Didn’t know if I need to precise that, but yeah
Danny's LSP voice is the best.
If you remember the comic Kid Radd from almost 20 years ago, this game was the inspiration.
I loved that comic. Used to read it every day before school.
14:17 Maybe one of the most fabulous boss enemies ever ... and Danny's reaction is gold
Props to Danny for making the girl sound like LSP
Was that Kuwabara & LSP?
I'm so glad I wasn't the only one that noticed Dan looked like Jake a bit. Or that Dan looked like Spike Spiegel
I genuinely love the pose he makes when he heals
I've played this game all the way through, and theyr'e missing a big element of it. When you pause, it brings up a menu where you can select different kinds of magic. Besides the restore-life spell, there's also spells that let you call down avananches of boulders, transform into an eagle, and other things. Every other stage has a different "big" boss at the end, which is kind of impressive since you don't expect such massive enemies in an NES platformer! If you take a close look that first "big" boss is the monster in the cover art. I love how crazy some of the enemy designs in this game are! Somebody had a lot of fun designing this!
Wait that giant green boss thing was corn... it's a giant corn that shoots popcorn
I think you're getting this confused with Castle Crashers?
Daiyuki117 Nonono not that one but i love Castle Crashers and know the corn boss you're talking about. I saw one in the video and was too lazy to add the time.
Matthew Kunkle 14:20
***** Thanks.
We need a compilation of Dan going YEEAAH!
Arin, I'm 100% with you on the "Wacom" (way-calm) pronunciation thing.
whenever I hear people say wacom (wah-cum) I just get angry
0:31 wow jonathan joestar really changed
Holy crap, I haven't seen that game for like 15 years! They dodn't even use the transformation power. This game needs to be revisited please! This video brought me back to my childhood and I would love to see more gameplay on this from the Grumps!
I'd rather listen to a surfer dude say "Dude, totally radical, man!" than one of today's kids speak Internet acronyms aloud. "EL-OH-EL, JAY KAY! DOUBLE-U TEE EFF bae!" Ugh, I die a little inside every time I hear shit like that.
+celestial derp I'm 25 and I've _NEVER_ heard _ANYONE_ say any acronyms like that in real life.
+Rein Engel i agree
+Rein Engel You forgot the word YAAAAAAS
+celestial derp From an actual fifteen year old with an actual twelve year old sister; yeah they do. You're just not hanging with the people who do...
+Rein Engel Wait- There are kids who actually do that..... why
*90's Grumps*
_All the drugs from the 80's mixed with the confidence of the 90's to make this game_
Mad props to Barry's editing here.
That beginning made me laugh so hard I fell out of my chair
Allison: " Jake, they're like stealing me or something!!!"😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
Aww, you guys didn't even try the magic. You can turn into a fish, an angel, a lion, make earthquakes and bubbles and shit. All from the start. I feel like this one needs a do-over.
+FunderbunkPlays The biggest mistake people make with this game is never bringing up the pause menu. I'm not saying this is the best game ever but it's definitely overlooked. It's not easy, either. But much easier if you know about your abilities and use them properly.
actually my name is Radd... and no it isn't short for anything.
Rad name! Dude
I love Dan's LSP impression.
So this is the game that inspired Kid Radd.
Silver surfer is named Norrin Radd
that character sprite looks waaaaaay to much like dan! lol
SHOW DAN-JAKE! SHOW DAN-JAKE!!
Danny sounded like Lumpy Space Princess in the beginning when doing the voice. xD
That's what I thought too lol
Vegas now has a Ferris Wheel in it's skyline. And it's the largest Ferris Wheel in the world.
It's not even taller than the buildings around it, though.
Yeah, the High Roller
It's about as high as Trump tower. Sweet Jesus.
XXPedia smilepoot.exe
+XXPedia yeah it's 550 feet, shorter than the stratosphere but it's still the largest ferris wheel in the world ^.^ it's super fun, almost an exact replica of the london eye. and the view is amazing ^.^
There's so much unexplored territory in this game... they didn't even try the transformation spells. Hell, they didn't bring up the spell menu at all, they just used the full-heal spell. You can transform into a ninja, a bird, and a tiger... how rad is that?!
Also, the dialogue gets so much better. For example, this exchange between Allison and Jake:
Allison:
Jake, I'm like really nervous. Like, my dad tried to save me. And now they've got him too. I don't know what they've done with him.
Jake:
No way! He's the gnarliest professor on the coast. So, it's your dad they really want!
Allison:
Jake, I kinda want my dad back, you know?
Jake:
That's totally understandable. Wow, how about if I save him?
That's just pure gold.
An English friend of mine got pissed when I called the London Eye a " big ferris wheel". Apparently they believe it is much more than that.
I'm English,
I've been on it.
It is just a Ferris wheel.
***** I know! I don't know why he got so offended. XD I thought it was pretty cool.
It is what it is......a big ferris wheel lol, I'm English too
I feel personally attacked, I talk like that-
Totally -Rad- Hard
EDIT: This game is totally a Megaman -Ripoff- Radoff
MEGAdfikc
Martin Binkley. played Matthew Lillard.
This has to have the most hilarious intro to any Game Grumps episode ever.
MOST EXCELLENT DUUUUUUUUDE...
Over a year later "Spain is just gay Portugal!" is still funny.
These green guys kinda look like Master Chief.
Oh wow! this has the name of my two favorite words! "Tots Alley and Radiation"...Wait...Thats three words
That's four words.
Fatherbrain1 Oh shi-
I think Game grumps is totally decent
***** wow youre cool

Why are you Watching?
TheRaven12356 He meant that as a joke from an episode of GG

Watch the Super mario world videos
I know right!
...shoulda rolled.
14:00 OH MY GOD IT'S THE BOX ART MONSTER :0 I've watched this episode so many times and I never noticed that!
Kid Radd was actually inspired by this apparently.
You should play conkers bad fur day >.> I would let you borrow it.
It's too bad this was a one-off. I was legitimately entertained watching them play this.
That Danny picture...
Thanks guys, I had this game as a kid and loved it. I've since lost my NES so it's great to see this again!
Love how Danny pauses and says "YEAH" every time he heals. XD
