    I think the Pyro Jack ending is meant to imply that Pixie is secretly the princess, since she came out from behind the door Pixie hid behind. I have no idea how that makes any sense since you see them together in the Jack Frost ending, but I cant imagine what else its supposed to imply.

      I interpreted it that *this particular* Pixie was the Fairy Princess herself in disguise and the Pixies helping Jack Frost and Jack the Ripper were just normal Pixies.
      It’s a bit convoluted, but I imagine that all 3 Jack Brothers’ “stories” are happening within the dungeons in a particular order, with one Brother speeding a floor ahead, one lagging behind, and one somewhere in between.
      I picture it like this:
      1) Pyro Jack finishes first, hence the Princess not being there yet.
      2) Jack Frost comes in second.
      3) Jack the Ripper arrives last, where he and the Princess enter the door and it closes behind them; ending with the villains’ dialogue.
      Yes. I am also implying that the bosses got their asses handed to them 3 times in a row in the same 1 hour timespan. Could happen.
      Ya know... since Beelzebub clearly wasn’t dead in Jack the Ripper’s ending.
      I think of it like Sonic Heroes’ story, where everything happened but you don’t question it ‘because video game.’

      @@t-wrecksthenerdasaur7468 Yeah, they know what it's supposed to be, but dropping the O' makes it easier to say. On the other hand, Will O' Wisp from that game is pronounced _with_ the O' because it would be harder to say without it (wiruwisupu? or back then, more like uiruuisupu??)
      How they spell "Jack-O-Frost" is just a mix-up though. That spelling suggests to me that Kaneko might have actually thought to include Jack O' Lantern in Megaten 2 before including Jack Frost, and someone conflated them. Pyro Jack could be the original Bro.

    I’m honestly surprised at how good the game seems to be, I figured it was basically a joke game. Definitely wanna try this later. There’s also synchronicity if you haven’t played that, which is probably the closest thing to a modern Jack Bros we’re gonna get.

    What pun? He's supposed to be jack o'lantern. This is just taking his japanese name (Romaji: Jakku rantan) without change...

    Even though the game was made well before nocturne or nocturne maniax, I'd like to imagine this was just uber pixie having fun blowing shit up in the hardest mode. Imagine a rerelease where the pixie ending legit just has a pixelized demi-fiend wondering where the fuck she goes every halloween. Either that or she really is the pixie queen like implied in the jack o lanturn ending... or ended up being a queen BECAUSE of the uber pixie buff.
    Fuck it, have Black frost be the final boss of the pixie playthrough after Beelzebub, the same one that joins your party without your consent complaining about favoritism.

    I’m really late to say this, but Jack Bros would work really well as a mobile game. Like- imagine this with updated graphics, a few tweaks, and a few more gameplay modes.
    You would have Story/Tutorial Mode, Daily Dungeons, Randomly Generated Infinite Mode, Vs Race Mode… idk man, it just has as lot of potential. Create a bunch of unique bosses, maybe you could have some different skins for beating Holiday Dungeons, and keep it in a pixel art style.
    Like an SMT version of Subway Surfers. Something to play on your phone while on a commute or when on a plane or something.

    You should do a video covering Synchronicity Prologue, the closest thing we'll get to Jack Bros. 2. Cool Cave Story-like platformer with the occasional bullet-hell segments, featuring Jack Frost and Pyro Jack. It takes place right at the beginning of Strange Journey, too.

    It's really interesting to see someone fairly extensively cover some of the less popular Megaten games. The only other time I can remember seeing this game in action was a one minute clip from AVGN, pleasantly surprised to find out that it's actually a pretty decent game. There are some other games I'd want to see you play, but SMT Nine has always been especially elusive, so I'd love it if you covered that one.
