Taking a Look at the Ed, Edd, n Eddy Handheld Video Game Trilogy!

- Опубликовано: 18 окт 2024
- That's right! In this video I cover not one, not two, but THREE different Ed Edd n Eddy video games: Jawbreakers (GBA), The Mis-Edventures (GBA), and Scam of the Century (NDS). Hope you guys are as excited for this video as I am! EEnE has always been a show I've wanted to talk about on my channel, and now thankfully I can do just that! As I mentioned at the start of the video, the console version of the Mis-Edventures will be getting its own video, so stay tuned for that coming soon!
Also, as a side note I am going to be covering all video games in a franchise going forward, meaning that instead of jumping around to different shows like I did with my first few videos, I will now be covering one franchise at a time on my channel in order to maintain more consistency (with the exceptions being Spongebob and Powerpuff Girls). This means that the next video after this one WILL be the Mis-Edventures (console version), and then the videos following that will all be about another show, then so on and so forth.

![Evolution of Ed, Edd n Eddy Games [2002-2020]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/hxPgOYxvfAA/mqdefault.jpg)
Yes, my parents genuinely DID believe Ed Edd n' Eddy was teaching me to do bad things, despite it being a fun, harmless show.
Makes me feel more grateful that my mom would literally watch Ed Edd n Eddy and the other cartoons with me as a kid. I feel she did something right with giving me enough restrictions without going overboard. At least, Ed Edd n Eddy literally got me into video editing interestingly enough.
Weird... My dad's one complaint about it was that, because it was a cartoon in English, and we aren't native English speakers, that it was pointless for me to watch it since I couldn't understand what they were saying, as I was too young and my understanding of spoken English was still too basic... to which I replied that, by seeing their actions, and grasping at the few words I did understand, I could very much understand at least the basic plot of the episodes, and especially the characters' personalities!
L parents
I imagine it's one of the few shows where the term "PG" really does apply. It's a great, harmless show for the most part, but it sort of relies on a kid being well raised enough to understand not to copy what they're seeing.
My mom didn't like me watching it, but I think it gave me great memories and a good sense of humor. Plus a love for sound effects
The issue with making a show like Ed Edd n Eddy a video game is that in a majority of the episodes, the Eds fail at their schemes. This is definitely fine for an 11 minute episode of a cartoon, but trying to translate that formula into a video game where you're supposed to be playing as them and invested in trying to succeed can make that ending feel like you wasted your time, especially when they throw in frustratingly sluggish controls that inflate the difficulty more than it actually is.
Hey Chikorita
Actually, that's the best summary I've ever heard.
Yeah... Like, there was one or two times the ending actually felt like a win for the Eds, and of course there's the movie (which wouldn't have been a bad setting for a game, not gonna lie), but other than that, yeah.
It's a fun subversion that fits the cartoon though. You "winning" is getting to see them fail. That's right on the money, and it's fun too. "The Eds don't win that's disappointing" lol
Hmmm...
Great Vid, played mis-edventure on Gameboy and Gamecube, good times. My father took me to their animation studio in 2007. I met the animation crew and Danny Antonucci; super awesome and passionate people. All signed a CN Invaded poster that I still have today. They were working on the few episodes that was season 6 and the movie. A DS with Scam of the Century was there, they let me try it out. I have a vivid memory of the pink dolls, and for the longest time I couldn't remember what the game was called (thank you). When it was time to go, Danny gave me a real jawbreaker! I will never forget that experience.
The funny thing is that he chose jawbreakers as the food that the kids are obsessed with because he hates jawbreakers.
@@theonlybilge That’s hilarious!
OK, legitimately this is my favorite Cartoon Network show ever right alongside regular show.
God, i miss ed edd n eddy. Im 27 now and it was my childhood, me and all of my friends loved it and used to recreate episodes when we were outside playing
wow my parents were never that strict when I was young ; so I and my younger sister where able to watch any show we wanted. And Ed, Edd, N Eddy was one of them. Ah that was good times, good times.
yeah what a real fun crazy & stupid it is of what they did.
I spent a lot of time at my grandparents house as a kid too they would watch me and my cousins while our moms were out. I still go see them cause we all live pretty close. 🤣
13:14 - 13.34
I mostly agree, but the same goes for level design. You can have the greatest controlling game ever, but that can only get an experience so far if the level design doesn't push them to their full potential and meaningfully challenge the player. Games like Super Mario Sunshine and Spyro 2 are particularly guilty examples of this.
And Sonic CD too, I think that game is beautiful both in graphics and sound, but it has some really bad level design
@@BinglesP
Good call. Everything else about Sonic CD is stellar, but a lot of the level design is just flat-out bad.
Really enjoying your game reviews so far.
Maybe your mom heard Double D saying "good lord" or "oh my lord" and took that as "swearing"?
maybe she misheard is "what in sam hill" as "what in the hell".
Or anytime they said heck.
Maybe it was the first episode. She might've confused Eddy saying "stinky pits" for "stinky piss". If true, she wasn't the only one.
“Ed can do nothing except bash his head through a wall and get distracted by chickens” oh like in the show lol
I know my little cousin couldn't watch too much of Ed Edd n Eddy because it was more "mean-spirited" in tone when it came to how the kids related to each other. Eddy would tell Ed to "shut up" a lot or call him an "idiot", with Kevin constantly calling the Eds "dorks". Sarah was always screaming, there was constant violence with characters hitting each other and beating each other up, etc. Fun show, but you didn't want a little kid to imitate that.
I also had the same experience regarding Ed Edd and Eddy with my parents as well as a friend with theirs. It was always strange to me because it was the only cartoon they were adamant about me not watching, I always figured that maybe it just gave off the impression of being a vulgar adult cartoon due to the art style or something.
I loved ed edd and eddy as a kid
In regards to the opening story about one of the characters supposedly saying a swear: There was one episode where Edd yells "What in SAM HILL ARE YOU DOING?" and even as a kid I legitimately thought he was saying Hell. I think it was the episode with Ed getting a pair of Slovak jawbreakers, but I'm not sure.
I like the detail of Donny is in the trash can
What's interesting about EEnE Jawbreakers is there are screenshots available online, which don't match the final game. Those screenshots were taken from the beta version, which might suggest that the game was meant to be completely different. For example, it seems only Eddy was playable at that point, being able to go anywhere in the map, including going into houses instead of being in linear pattern from point A to point B. The levels there seem the same with exception that all the Cul-de-Sac kids (Including Ed, Double D and Kankers) were there as part of the background or maybe as NPCs, which Eddy could talk to them. One screenshot even shows Eds fighting Lee Kanker by using a Newspaper Shooter.
There's also a screenshot on the back of the game's box that shows a level that never made it into the final game.
So it sounds like it would’ve been more like a metroidvania over a lost vikings type game, which would’ve worked pretty well for the series
Thank you. I have long enjoyed the handheld version on MisEdVentures one of the underrated gems of the Gba. So good to hear it get some love.
0:14 For the first few years of my life that was Pokemon but my mom eventually caved in and let me watch the anime and bought me Pokemon Crystal from Toys R Us.
I absolutely loved the mis edvendtures on the Gameboy and would play it consistently. I'm glad I'm not the only one that thought it was a great game.
I guess Evil Tim designed the enemy platforms of "Scam of the Century."
Anyways, I LOVED "Ed, Edd n Eddy" growing up, so of course I played some of these games. I remember playing "Jawbreakers" quite a lot, though I completely understand your frustration with it. With "Mis-Edventures," I might've played the GBA version, though not as much as the PlayStation 2 version. As for "Scam of the Century," I only played the first level or two, and lost interest after that.
Funny because there technically is an character called Tim
He was in one of those Cartoon Network mockumentary bumpers where they "trained" people to act like the Cartoon Cartoons' protagonists, and the instructor for the Ed impersonators was named 'Tim (AKA Edward)'
That first games spritework and pixel art backgrounds is pretty incredible for the time. (I see you did that now!)
2:57 The Lost Vikings wasn't just for the SNES, it was released for several platforms.
27:00 that's Lee not May
Ed Edd & Eddy is my father's favorite show on CN so I got to watch it a lot as a kid.
Oh man you reminded me about how hard Scam of the Century was. Honestly to stand a better chance with the enemy placements, make sure you always have Eddy’s gum fully charged and Double D’s book fully charged as well since it will always aim the enemy when it’s charged. As for Ed well… good luck ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
5:24 *distracted?* This is game design 101, you dont take away control of the character unless its extremely necessary.
"SCAM is MONEY. I want JAWBREAKER!"
Yep, I can definitely tell the DS one was made by a Japanese budget game house.
As a huge Ed’s fan I only played the console version of mis-edventures as a kid but remember how awesome that game was too I’m glad to hear the gba title is also a worthy incarnation of the game.
The GBA had SO many Lost Vikings-like licensed games. Aside from the Ed Edd n Eddy game, there was a Shrek game, a Nicktoons Unite hand-held tie-in game, a Precure game, probably more I'm forgetting. I have to wonder what it was about that specific play-style that was mimicked so much on the GBA.
I’ll pop it in later tonight when I got off work for a replay, but I remember beating Scam of the Century. I don’t remember how insane the enemy programming was 😂
The sprites in that last game are rough! I feel like they should have left them pure 2d.
@@AlmyTheAlien you’re probably right. Idk, I just feel like they should have done either 2d or 3D instead of meshing them together.
Great video even though I didn't grow up with the games like the cartoons... though I felt triggered near the end of Scam of the Century because you kept calling Lee "May"
I loved Ed, Edd n, Eddy The Mis-Edventures. I had it for PlayStation 2, GameCube and the Gameboy Advance. I played a lot of the handheld GBA version whenever I was being dragged around as kid to places I didn’t feel like going too lol. I never played Jawbreakers and I recall seeing Scam of the Century at my local GameStop often, but I never bothered to pick it up despite being a huge fan of the show.
I remember having consistently had so much trouble emulating Mis-Edventures on VBA that I went out of my way to buy a physical cartridge of the game out of spite. I then 100% completed the game on my silver DS Lite.
I also had troubles with that game and VBA
I had to download a completely separate emulator just to play it
i looked it up and EEnE Mis-Edventures in particular just isn’t compatible with VBA for some reason, with very few other games that share the status
So I realize this video isn’t the most recent but I really wanted to comment. Especially since I just finished my rewatch of the show (would love to see you do some videos on it someday), and the fact the only one of these I had as a kid was Jawbreakers. That game drove me crazy and I don’t think I ever finished more than 2 levels (I still have it but only out of love for the show). The fall and game over animations are burned into my brain. Might have to pick up Mis Edventures now though since it seems really fun.
I watched 'A Nightmare on Elm Street' when I was 8 years old. My folks didn't usually have a problem with what cartoons I liked.
Only Cartoon Network shows that was frowned upon was Billy and Mandy (Mainly cuz of the Grim Reaper) and (big shock) Pokemon. Everything else was fine, including Ed Eds N Eddy. Lucky me cuz that was my fun-time favorite Cartoon Network cartoon! Great video! The second GBA game looks like 1000x more fun than the first one! I only played the DS game a few years ago, and I hated cuz of how difficult it was, glad to see if I'm not the only one who thinks that! Also have u thought about covering the Kids Next Door games? I have the GBA game.
1. Hollow Knight's Pantheon of Hallowest Hitless Runs look now very easy when you compare them to Ed, Edd n Eddy: Scam of the Century Hitless Runs.
2. I've never owned any of these games (I only watched the show and a movie), but I remember seeing silent let's play of them and oh man, I always prefered to watch The Mis-Edventures GBA Walktroughts than those two.
3. I also remember the weird Ed, Edd & Eddy fangame, where The Eds beat up the robots from Mega Man, some adult gang members and a bunch of undead knights and at the end fight the Krankles.
The Vikings thing was used in shrek 2 on gba as puss and boots shrek and donkey
The Eds also appeared in Cartoon Network Speedway and Block Party for GBA.
these are great!! looking forward to Ben 10 whenever your gonna cover it!!
I swear Rook ,you were one of the few things i liked in omniverse .
I used to watch Ed Edd n Eddy with my mom. Good times~
Man I loved this cartoon it’s hilarious
Hi Shadow Streak I really love your video and your channel I think it's great channel so I got a few ideas of your next video when you do this handheld trilogy thing
1. Heavy Iron Studios SpongeBob Trilogy (SpongeBob BFBB , Movie (GBA) , Truth Or Square (NDS
2.PowerPuff Girls GBC Trilogy (I understand you don't want to touch these games because I heard it's bad)
3. The Fairly OddParents GBA Trilogy (Breaking Da Rules, Shadow Showdown & Enter The Cleft)
I hope you like any of these ideas and couldn't wait for your next video
So glad someone talked about how bad the first GBA game😂😂😂😂😂i really thought i was doing something wrong as a kid😭😭
Mis-adventures rocked as a kid, I remember beating it back in the day
I had no idea there was trilogy of games based on my favorite childhood show
This is one awesome video on Ed,Edd,Eddy Handheld game video trilogy,so that's cool.
Also nice story,and I wish y'all a great day.
My mom didn't like me watching the show because she thought it was too stupid, but my dad didn't see a problem with that, so I could still watch it. My parents let me watch most shows I wanted because they knew I knew better then to imitate what I saw or heard
16:00 wouldn’t have Sonic Heroes been a better comparison?
True
A cliché one, though
He even compared the console version to that
Theory about the swear:In the Latin American dub a character says "When is another cruise,my body wants sun and sex",a strech,I know,but I wanted to share that fact
No matter the version of the show Rolf always gets the lines that make one question themselves
Jawbreakers is actually pretty alright with save states, but it absolutely SUCKS without them
I think that another problem with the scam of the century game is that the screen doesn't give you enough room to anticipate what's ahead. My parents didn't like this cartoon by the way,but they never told me that i wasn't allowed to watch it on the house.
I remember playing the ever loving sh!t out of the GBA & DS games. I still own and play them to this day 👍🏼
Ed Edd n Eddy jawbreakers is actually on the finished. If you really pay attention there are certain things that hint at this and although I did get a chance to ask to people that work on the game and what was wrong, they were only able to give me short answers because they didn't know everything about it. One of the things that hints at this is the fact that if you put in the infinite in Jetpack code, all three characters have an animation for using the jetpack. The jetpack was originally intended to be a temporary power up. The only other thing that they were able to tell me is that the original concept well the game was not that much different but also the game was originally intended to be a little bit longer and have a slightly different storyline. I really don't remember what else I was told because this was years ago and I happened to meet them by chance. I had roughly 10 minutes to talk to them at most
Good job Shadow but can you play Ed, Edd, and Eddy mis-Ed adventure on the game cube it is really good.
While I never played Jawbreakers! I love the other two games Mis-Edventures GBA, and Scam of the Century equally.
WHOA!!! Hold up! So i wasnt the only one who's parents thought this show was a bad influence!? Like no joke, back in the day my mom blamed Ed, Edd, 'n Eddy for the reason i kept getting suspended from school
Out of all the three games that were mentioned, I never did owned Mis-Edventure, so I can tell that I likely missed out on the better Ed Edd n Eddy games.
Jawbreakers will always be a guilty pleasure of mine because I have beat it numerous of times. I even went as far beating it while collecting all coins and extra lives. I can almost beat it without losing a life once (which equates to quiting to the title screen for each time I died), but the Kevin boss fight at that time always gave me trouble. I'll not lie though, I thought there was a different ending if one were to play the game as that where the eds DID get their jawbreakers.
I will agree with what criticism this game has, mostly with the hit boxes and how playing as Ed or Double D cannot jump over an enemy without the need of an extra platform.
Another criticism I do want to add is that when you brought up the timer at 10:13, you forgot to mention that the game has a Hard Mode difficulty, which gives you less time than before. While some stages are doable in Hard Mode, the fourth Junkyard stage (the one with the falling gears room with an infamously placed robot enemy) is impossible to complete since it gives you 115 ticks, and I say ticks because the timer does not count down at regular seconds.
Again, Jawbreakers will always be a guilty pleasure of mine, but had it got more development and better QA testing, those issues wouldn't have been presented.
It may have been the first episode. When Eddy says "As much as I love the smell of your stinky pits", I actually confused it for "piss". So did a bunch of other kids and adults.
I once drew out plannings for a fan video game of Ed edd n eddy. The plot would be that the cúl de sa children have been kidnapped by
The evil robot emperor Zodd. Ed wants to vanquish Zodd, Double D wants to save the kids of the Cúl de sac While Eddy is more concerned about not having the kids around to scam so he Joins up and get the kids back. It was a pretty fun idea and allot more original then the games CN put out. I think I still have the plans at school. Or again I could of destroyed them trying to do a voodoo curse to kill my bullies.
PPG will always be my favorite CN show but Ed Edd n Eddy is a damn close second and arguably the funniest CN show ever man I miss it 😂
And heck I never realized the console version of Mis-Edventures was a remake of a handheld version.
I've always remembered Ed Edd n Eddy back then when I was a kid and they didn't swear or used curse words it's not South Park ether
fun fact: the reason A2M (artificial mind & movement) changed their name to behavior is because A2M stands for “ass to mouth”
Exactly. They also released everGirl for Game Boy Advance the same year.
Funny thing, I heard this same claim as a pre-teen while I was playing with another kid. Even then, I was baffled.
0:08 i had the totaly opposite of that I did not watch homestar runner for most of my childhood because i thought it was extremely adult for some reason
Scam of the Century looks completely forgettable and mediocre from this gameplay, not to mention the weird spritework
Especially the fact that the AI is so broken at times that losing is incredibly easy.
3D models with sprites for heads. That just does not work here.
@@KeybladeMasterAndy To be fair, the resolution of the actual DS would have crunched those models into looking more like sprites. The emulation does away with that.
@@Cyberguy64 Yeah, I really hate when I see someone emulate a 3D game with the resolution set to above what the console's native resolution is. It always just ends up looking goofy.
@@Eddies_Bra-att-ha-grejer only really for ds games
Jawbreakers was a fun enough game when i was young. I think my major issue was an issue i have with so many other platformers.
No health bar and 1 hit deaths.
I dont know why people enjoy games with no margin for error.
It was also disappointing that the jumping was atrocious.
I get that Eddy was the one with a double jump, but Double Dee and Ed still needed to jump to platforms to progress and it was just frustrating that They couldn't jump more than a foot off the ground.
Damn, using an emulator really shows the weird disparity of the character models in Scam of the Century... I mean, it's not bad, just weird.
Also, I honestly had more fun with the meat minigame than the main game. The levels were tough, and in a cheap way as I now realize, the Game Over screen was my one constant for that game, and Rolf's tractor was one of the worst things that game came up with, but it was quite satisfying to finally pummel Jonny's melon. Plus, it was one of my first games, so it still has a neat place in my heart.
I played the other two games a couple years later on an emulator. Jawbreakers, didn't even get past the first stage without getting annoyed, so I just dropped it. Mis-Ed-ventures, on the other hand, was really fun!
Bottomless Pits? Bad Enemy Placment? This isn’t a Dimps Sonic game
Mis-Ed-Ventures on GBA was among my earliest handheld games alongside Flight of the Falcon and Cartoon Network Speedway and it ended up being the only way I got to play the game since my parents never got me the console version. I loved it all the same tho, I almost beat the whole thing 100% actually, I'm just missing one jawbreaker that I can't seem to find in any of the levels.
"This first game is utter shit" That caught me off guard😂😂😂
Ed, Edd n' Eddy was the whole reason i watched Cartoon Network in the first place.
I always thought Jawbreakers was bad, but I never got far enough to really realize why. I was pretty bad at this game and never got past the second level.
Me (to myself while clicking on video): "There was an Ed, Edd n Eddy handheld videogame trilogy?!"
Video intro: "Duh."
Me: ".... Alright then."
Edit: As a side note as far as the swear goes, there's one part in I think the rule-breaking episode where Double D says "WHAT IN SAM HILL ARE YOU DOING?!!" As a kid I was convinced for a while that Double D was saying "What the damn hell" instead.
The first part about moms banning cartoons my mom actually really liked Ed edd n eddy and courage the cowardly dog and would watch them with me sometimes as a kid she only ever banned one cartoon that I can remember and it was south park still would watch that show as well lol
Who’s in the mood for jawbreakers ???
My mom felt the same way about Ed Edd n Eddy , mainly cause she thought it was stupid .
Mine too
Yeah for the jawbreakers game I felt Ed should be the fastest like a juggernaut either with a running dash or you build up in place like sonic spin dash. I can't remember if you can ko enemies but I feel they should have had more focus on that with Eddy being the one that can't fight. In the show the other kids would often get in the way of the ed's so them fighting makes sense. Or at least have the kanker sisters
My issue with these games was I felt the camera was way too zoomed in, making it very difficult to see the enemies and where you were jumping to.
Had the first game. Never completed it because I got stuck on the level at 6:14 and gave up after losing to time over again or dying. I wish younger me knew about the jetpack cheat.
Hey I loved the first game as a kid. Never played the handheld version of mis edventures. Or scam of the century
There is an episode of Ed edd n Eddy where they bleep out a bunch of cuss words. Maybe she is referring to that episode?
Damn, Sakurai needs to nerf Marie. Her up special is broken in both recovery and the damage it deals.
15:33 is her final smash, lolz
My mom would often laugh out loud at ed edd n eddy she thought it was hilarious but even though i was a massive fan and watched it constantly i never played any of the games
What the... My mom had the exact same rule about that show. She wasn't good at enforcing it, but still.
15:56 So basically like sonic heroes.
I just found out why it’s called “Scam of the Century”. It’s called that because it’s precisely created to scam YOU of your enjoyment of the game! And now it’s the driving force behind Nintendo’s god awful sports games of yesteryear!
I should probably give this show a try 🤔
All of these games have some bumpin' soundtracks.
Also, I actually really enjoy Scam of the Century. Maybe I just have more patience for how cheap and unfair it can get. And btw: The Eds' jumps are different.
*I still remember crying to myself over the Kevin bossfight, though.* I'm not sure which fight it was (might've been the one where he's on his feet chasing you alongside that damn tractor) but the fight was so stupidly frustrating and difficult I just went and cried to myself cuz of how hard it was.
Fuck you, Kevin.
lmao i was about to ask if it was possible to do reviews on ed edd n eddy?
Wait ... did ever got an episode in Ed Edd n Eddy, where there's at least one scene of characters playing video games?
Maciej Ciszewski --- no, there wasn't a single one.
Ayo I used to have the mid eddventures when I was little
Did you check out the P-06 remaster
i’m rly confused about the fact that some peoples parents didn’t let them watch certain kids shows growing up, i remember one of my friends in like 2nd grade not being allowed to watch spongebob..
Awesome vid.
27:00 May? That's Lee Kanker
Wow i did not know they had a console game
Did you know that the creator of ed edd n eddy was also the guy that made lupo the butcher?
The Eds almost outlived three generations of videogames, let that sink in. Also for those wondering about the Lost Vikings, it's like the Three Stooges in Wario Land.
Fitting it’s a clone of that, then, considering the Eds are like the Three Stooges mixed with Wario themselves.
