it's hilarious how Arin got practically every detail about the lineage of this series wrong in the first 60 seconds
As is tradition.
@ramirezthesilvite
"it's TRADITIIIIIOOON."
So what IS the lineage of this dumb game
@stoodmuffinpersonal3144
It’s the latest in the “hot shots golf” series - or at least that’s what they localized the series as until this most recent edition; they finally just gave it the translated title of what the series has always been called in Japan - Minna no Golf (or: Everybody’s Golf)
@akaButtons
So Arin was ALMOST correct, kinda
Absolutely obsessed with Mizuki yelling out random catchphrases that seem to have NOTHING to do with golf
He's a chuunibyo, which is a type of character with delusions of having powers and stuff. Gundam from Danganronpa 2 is a textbook example of this character type.
An odd choice for one of the two default characters, but whatever.
@LuckySketches and Love, Chuunibyo, And Other Delusions! is a wonderful slice of life romance anime that deals with just how unbelievable cringey it really is
@LuckySketchestextbook example would be Kaidou from Saiki K
@pb4705I was literally thinking of Kaidou!! That's fantastic lol
I think the best part is Dan hearing even weirder stuff.
"I'll never wear comfortable shoes again!" vibes
My thoughts exactly
I spent about half an hour today wondering "what was that thing they misheard on Danganronpa and it was really funny" and fruitlessly watching compilation videos searching for it. So thank you sincerely for scratching that brain itch.
It's only fitting that Dan played the Gundam Tanaka type character.
Hey, Big Zam!
'Huh, this Mizuki VA sounds familiar, I wonder why?'
*one IMDB search later*
'BAKUGO????'
I immediately recognized Clifford’s voice 😭
That adds up perfectly.
Guy spoke one line on the character select screen and I was like "that's Clifford Chapin."
"HATSUNE MIKU?!"
I KNEW IT
This feels like the Ghost Stories of the golfing video game world.
Just about to say the exact same thing when I spotted your comment. You can feel the VA's going over-the-top with that same Ghost Stories energy XD
2:46 "We're so fuckin tired!" Oh it's gonna be a good one.
"I hate controller share golf" *blasts past the option to have Dan use his own controller*
Very on brand. 😂
15:56 "is that Mt. Fuji in the background? it is snowing up there" great callback
its Mr. Fuji.
Arin, with the memory of a gold fish, couldnt appreciate the callback. 🤣
@SuperApaxton I WAS GOING TO MAKE THIS JOKE DAMN IT YOU BEAT ME TO IT
It's snowing on Mt. Fuji.
@briannowack4077
Goldfish memory
Arin did not get the joke.
It is snowing on Mt. Fuji.
Hot Shots Golf was the American title for the Japanese titled Everybody’s Golf. It goes back to the PlayStation. So I have no idea what Arin was talking about. But this is a great series.
Same family tree as the old Mario Golf games too, though I have no idea if any of the devs are the same.
Hot Shots Golf 3 my beloved
Arin "Confidently Wrong" Hanson strikes again.
I'm American and definitely played Everybody's Golf and never played Hotshots golf
@cloudy4801In the 90s? Cuz they changed it back
It's crazy that Mizuki is one of the default characters, and not a wacky unlockable character you get later on. They're doing line reads like it's for a shonen anime, not a delightful little golf game.
"Bro you need to chill" we're playing golf with Katsuki Bakugo. There is no chill. This will never be chill.
No "stroke play" jokes? I'm so proud of them
Man, that's a poor man's joke. Too easy for the pros Danny and Arnold.
Proud? I thought they got replaced by clones lol
So no wacky play? *spikes phone, leaps onto skateboard*
I'm dissapointed
i was so astounded that they didn't that i had to rewind because i thought i must've missed it
Mizuki reminds me of this one kid I knew in school who pretended to be Sonic.
funnily enough that's exactly the archetype they're going for
32:37 “It should say that on the screen” is the golf version of “if only there was a giant arrow to tell us where to go!”
Zuko and Sokka playing golf, Sokka hits it into some thick grass.
Zuko: "That's rough, buddy."
I know Arin loves playing the female characters, but Mizuki is very clearly Arin-coded with his commentary and crash-outs
a golf episode of game grumps is always a good day. an EVERYBODY'S GOLF Hot Shots episode of game grumps is heaven.
if that's not your style, a very pleasant purgatory works too
Holy crap! It's the official Bamco of America channel! Nice to see you here as a fan of the Grumps Golf vids!
WHOA!! Bandai Namco's here!!
Hi BandaiNamcoAmerica. Elden Ring 2 please. Thank you.
Hello Bamcomerica
Nothing quite like Arin fixing his camera almost immediately, and then when Dan asks how to do it he's just like "huh? oh idk maybe you cant" so Dan just cant see the rest of the game 🙃
A classic
Yup that's Arin to a T
@whitefang5973to a low t
With the little "Press the left triangle button to switch between 5 camera angles" graphic on the screen every time he complains.
Dan could also try pushing buttons. Like, it's not going to explode if you just try different buttons. That or just look at the incredibly clean and informative UI that's clearly labeled telling you how to do everything and what button to push to do it lol
This game needs to be their new go-to golf game. I love Dans character spouting random anime BS constantly!
Pangya was a Korean fantasy golf MMO exclusively for PC that was so popular it received a single player wii adaptation that, in the west, was called Super Swing Golf. It also received a PSP title called 'Fantasy Golf Pangya', Everybody's Golf/Hot Shots Golf is a completely different franchise and not at all related.
The presence of the Black Rabbit of Inlé, ever looming in the distance, adds a crucial layer of conceptual depth to Everybody's Golf: Hot Shots, by reminding the golfers of their mortality, keeping them humble.
Hell yeah.
Was not expecting a Watership Down reference.
Marcus mentioned 21:10
It's just not the same without Eugene Levy
The last Friday mini golf play through was a sign
I would pay an unreasonable amount of money for Eugene Levy commentator DLC à la Steve Carell in Outlaw Golf.
well, they chose NOT to play the "Wacky" version, instead choosing a Normal Golf round in this game...
@misterperegrineI thought Dave Atell was the commentator on outlaw golf
Dan's character having Adolescence Syndrome (Chūnibyō) made me cringelaugh.
Fun fact, mizuki is acting that way on purpose. Its a personality trait that children in school in Japan would act like because they thought it would make them cool. While often recieved the complete opposite. Its called chūnibyō.
The complete rejection of hitting the X button that shows above the target area of each shot- let alone going into the controls menu at 12:00 - while trying to figure out how to change perspective is frying my brain.
Despite playing video games for a living, these guys are NOT good at video games lol.
First time?
Golf, Chess and Wheel of Fortune are the peak games for Game Grumps Versus, always happy when they upload one of the three.
100%
Caddie: "I think it's leaning a bit to the left."
Happy: "That's because you're only wearing one shoe."
I like to imagine the dev team had to take a vote on who were going to be the first two unlocked characters that everyone was going to have to play. And they all voted for delusional psychic boy.
my husband has hundreds of hours in everybody's golf games, so excited they're playing! they're by far the best golf games, in his opinion. it's weird to hear the english though lol
So is it Everybody's Golf because it belongs to everybody? Or is insinuating that everybody *is* golf? Is this game gonna get existential on us?
You're making 1 caddy serve 2 rods at the same time?? By default??! I'm calling the BBB!
Oh my gosh, chuunibyo golf was not on my list of expectations for the Grumps' game choices for this year but it's so hilarious
That being one of the two default characters was definitely a choice.
I love that the 2 starting characters are like "yay im playing golf" and "if I go anything below par the universe will implode
20:53 we have to get Jimbo James
This feels like such a good episode for showing someone Grumps for the first time. It felt like a classic
I’m so happy they’re playing this. Hopefully they play some story mode in the future
(0:29) Arin is *_not_* correct on his assumption. In actuality, this series started as far back as the PS1. In Japan (and I *_believe_* Europe as well?🤔), this series is known as "Minna no Golf" (or "Everybody's Golf"). -The first couple installments were developed by Camelot-who also did "Mario Golf".-
(CORRECTION: Camelot only developed the original game, not the sequels.)
Umm aktually
Arin is not correct about a lot of things.
Camelot had such a weird array of titles, but also dropped Golden Sun / GS: The Lost Age, and for that they're awesome.
@NygmaRam03 It's okay to be wrong but it's not okay to speak confidently about something you're not confident about. Arin almost always falls into the latter category.
Not “the first couple”. Only the very first one. After that they only did Mario Golf in terms of golf games.
In between Hot Shots Golf 1 & Mario Golf 64 the director of HSG1 Masashi Muramori quit Camelot to form the studio Clap Hanz, which would go on to develop HSG2 and every succeeding HSG game all the way up until this newest one, which was instead made by a studio called Hyde and published by Namco (licensed out to them from Sony, who owns the series).
A whole bunch of misinformation at the beginning, courtesy of Arin Hanson. Hot Shots has always been a Japanese title lmao
It amazes me that they have yet to play any of the Hot Shots Golf games, which I personally consider to be the best golf games, especially _Fore!_
Super Battle Golf should have been it.
Lol why did Dan say hello like Joe Biden from that one skyrim vid
To clarify Arin's attempted explanation: "Everybody's Golf" (called みんなのGOLFゴルフ ("Minna no Gorufu") in JPN) was originally known as "Hot Shots Golf" in North America right up until this game! It was published by Sony for most of its life, until this latest game, which was published by Bandai Namco, and while most of it was developed by the studio Clap Hanz, this one is made by a newer studio called Hyde (can't find a Wiki article on them)... while the _original_ was made by Camelot Software Planning, the people behind many Mario sports series' (Tennis, Golf), SEGA's "Shining" series, "Golden Sun", and WALUIGI!
**WHEEZING** I can't not laugh everytime this Mizuki guy does his wild shouting about the dragon in his left hand, how he's a legend, and his INSANE "flexing" and hand posing. Like my brain just goes "THE CLAAAAAAW!"
Mizuki and Gundam Tanaka would be besties
Alternatively theyd hate each other and call one another frauds
I need to get this game solely to play as the chunni character
I missed you, Golf Grumps
Really bold of this game to make the only two playable starting characters so damn extra.
Grump Golf LFG
If Mizuki had the key to his zoo, he could say "I'm Mizuki and this is my zoo key."
That's all I have to contribute to the discussion.
9:20 I keep thinking I've joined a Discord voice channel
Arin's "nice shot" landing him not only in the water but also in the penal-ty area made Dan's soon to be ending life (presumably because of killer grass) that much more legendary.
3:47 "Praying Mantis Man" great song if I don't say so myself
That Mizuki is going to have to rely alot on his possessed hand.
Super Battle Golf.
Super Battle Golf.
I’m worried about Mizuki
22:00 I saw Dan's guy right away (looks like a Quentin Crisp illustration), still can't see Arin's.
Is Mitsuki doing the Spiderman Train Scene as his victory pose?
Pangya was developed by Ntreev, also known as Super Swing Golf in the Wii release. Everybody's Golf is Bandai Namco, also known as Hot Shots. Arin has _approximate_ knowledge of many things.
Or as people call Ntreev, NtGreed. xD
I liked Pangya a lot. The power spin mechanic was so fun.
I love it when they start off an episode making dumb jokes and talking about how tired they are. That's the formula for a great show!
Arin forgetting he's referenced Marcus the worm by saying My Bad in his voice a million times and Dan saying he doesn't know who Marcus is is v funny
29:15 it’s ok Dan, I too thought of Howie Mandel
16:13 - craziest laugh ever by Dan
3:26 Hannah literally calls her "Aye-lee" in game. And a second later Arin is calling her "Ale"
1:05 Hotshots Tennis was fun! :D
3:12! "You'll beat me in my left eye" has that same vibe as "I'll never wear comfortable shoes AGAIN!" lol
Mizuki needs to chill tf out. It’s just golf my guy.
I wish the Grumps would play Outlaw Golf, Outlaw Tennis, and Outlaw Volleyball.
Mizuki even has white hair. Before he joined the yokai and got a big ass hat, he was a golfer.
Those moving lines on the green? Ignore those.
16:13 my new ring tone
The Caddy at the very end: "Looks like a downward slope"
Also the Caddy at the very end: "The terrains Perfectly flat!"
xD
3:00 I feel your pain, Dan. I feel your pain.
the mocap in this game is absurd XD
Arin out here hitting 2 Black Flashes in a row! 16:45
It's snowing on mt Fuji
32:37 I was only half paying attention so when Dan says "that's what it should say in the screen." I was confused because I genuinely thought it did. Well done you sneaky editor, you.
11:18 me screaming "X"
"Heheheheh I need this guy to go to therapy" might be the funniest thing I've ever heard that didn't get a laugh. XD
Every day is improved by Grumps playing golf.
I love when you guys play golf games
0:45 I was literally JUST playing Pangya Reborn lol
bruh an "it's snowing on mt. fuji" reference with no fanfair at 16 min. I SEE YOU
golf? never clicked faster in my life
The character’s lines are so unhinged. It’s ridiculousness makes it so hilarious
32:38 we need to give the editors more love you guys ❤️
Golf backwards is Flog. Which kind of sounds like a sport.
some of our favorite memories are of Game Grumps playing golf games
deep breaths, girly
"Wilhelm scream," Arin. 29:07
I. LOVE. Mizuki.
I love that Mizuki is the chosen one and he chose to be a golfer.
32:35 I was fooled good editing
15:23 is this guy kaidou from the dark reunion
The "Thats Rough Dude" edit was SO good, props!
Golf... Meh
Tired boys? Goddamnit I'm in
10:47 Arin finally admitting he has low T.
0:24
Dan: Idk what this is. What is this?
Arin: Well Dan, if I'm correct in my assumption...
Narrator: Arin would not, in fact, be correct about his assumption.
Mizuki is channeling his inner Yuuta from Chunibyo
