WOW I'm one of the Broken Circle Developer.. i was really sad when it not got a release even if we cut of a lot and scale the size to 64MB.... Is really cool see it with a package now !
I'm learning how to develop for the GBA right now. Why is Broken Circle so large?
greg its broken thats why
@@digital_underground hey, i wanna start developing for the gba, mundo helping me out?
What I love about these and all the titles made for dead consoles over the last 15(?) years or whenever the first guy to do this put out the first title is that it proved I wasn't the only one who loved 8/16 bit titles enough to want to see NEW titles. It made it clear that my love of old Consoles wasn't just a peculiar sort of niche love of gaming for myself and a handful of other nostalgic nerds.
Nice to see companies doing this, keeping the retro flame burning bright. Homebrews and fan-mades are the lifeblood of 'new' games for 16 and 8 bit systems. and it makes me happy.
I'm so glad to see that these old systems arn't being completly ignored by the global marketplace anymore many people like the old styles of video games and this also brings title that would have never been into a place where they can be found
in the 90's cartridge were limited in terms of memory size , now that memory chips go up to 120gb and beyond , it is possible to create new games with lots of data on vintage consoles
Looks like Water Margin is a rip of the arcade game Knights of the Round, utilizing MANY of the same animations with different/modified sprites. If thr characters didn't look markedly different i would think it was a home port of that game.
Thank you so much for sharing this, MJR! Quite a few of these games really caught my attention :)
Metal Jesus never lets down, awesome video dude!
Totally stoked that new games are being released for the old systems. Video games are an art, and like paintings and drawings, don't necessarily go out of style for everybody.
Makes you think about how many games out there that never got finished. Thumbs up for that shirt!
The body of Dorke from Dorke & Imp really looks like Sonic's body.
He even runs like Sonic does.
Water Margin is extremely similar to Knights of the Round, a Capcom arcade port beat em up I used to play all the time back in the '90s.
Super Noah's Ark 3D is rad. I would love to have the original release. I remember seeing it in the Christian bookstore as a kid and I wanted it so bad but I had a Genesis instead of a SNES. One thing that's cool about Piko's cart is that the original required you to have a legit licensed SNES game attached to a cartridge slot on the top of the cart. Piko's release did away with that and the cartridge looks way better for it. But it is available on Steam now, too for those that want to play it on a budget.
Duke Nukem looks like it is a mod of Wolfenstein 3D and you can run that on an NES with some reduction in resolution and sound quality. Wolfenstein 3D was done on the NES. It looks pretty good but they removed the blood.
Hi Metal Jesus! I am a brazilian youtuber and I am your fan!!
Yes new turbografx games are coming out but there mostly on the turbo CD!
Apocalypse II reminds me of Crazy Comets and Mega Apocalypse on C64, which I think were based on an arcade game called Mad Planets.
Great Video! Would love to see more from Piko! :)
Great vid! The first game Water Margin the fighting moves seems the same as capcom´s knights of the round
Awesome! I have added a few new games to my wishlist. :)
im actually amazed they had Duke Nuken 3D running on the Gensis.
The water margin was actually a Chinese or Japanese program that was on the TV hear in the UK in the late 70,s
Water Margin is actually "Knights of the Round" by Capcom.
nice to see Engine Software, the guys who worked on terraria working on an old school release. Pretty cool.
New games are developed all the time on multiple systems so it's always better to mod your systems and use burned discs or rom sets. Doesn't mean you have to pirate since i buy the games that i want.
4:07 that dragon beatin your ass there
very cool
Great video MetalJesus!
i love how old games get cool again ;)
11:24 dude while I was watching that I was thinking how much better Golden Sun looks on the GBA.
134 likes and only 59 views?
429 likes 59 views now lol
Goes to show how good these vids are. :P
44,000 views 2k like and this has only been up for 3 or 4 days oh my gosh
they should do some for n64 id buy em.
still very cool that a company is doing this thats awesome
Very interesting video, but not only Piko does games... Will there be a similar video for Watermelon games? (Pier Solar, Sacred Line...)
Water Margin levels are the ones from Tenchi o kurau 2/Warriors of fate on CPS1 & PS1. Not sure it's a rip off of knights of the round.
by the way, this game looks very cool
That Duke Nukem 3D version is worlds better than the version made for Tiger Game.com many years ago, however!
Oh, I'd shit my pants if new Saturn games started coming out.
Sega Saturn is by far my favorite console, solely thanks to Legend of Oasis. that game was a marvel of (then)modern game development.
Speaking of unfinished games, they need to get Resident Evil 1.5 out there, I need to play that!
It'd be cool if Piko could somehow make a deal with Nintendo so Star Fox 2 can be released on the SNES.
This year started quite well :D ....now if I make into university XD
Have you ever used Hero Editor for Diablo II? I'm obssessed with that game lmao
If they could do Slam Dunk, Yuyu hakusho and things like this....japanese...etc
i want they release Residnet Evil 2 and 3 for DS or Residnet Evil for GBC :D
Whats with the vertical stripes on some, if not all, the game footage? (See it quite clearly on the dorke and imp footage)
Talk about a collector! Some buy games, Piko Interactive buys licenses! There's some cool looking games in there.
+John Riggs: RIGG'd Games Hey John! Yes it is the most expensive type of collecting, buying game rights/licenses!
kinda chuckleing right now just picturing the cobversation
"i own ocarina of time"
"cool stephen, yea so do i a bunch of people do"
"no.... i OWN... ocarina of time,(in irish accent) its mine."
+John Riggs: RIGG'd Games So does that mean that other companies who produce repros and that sort of thing do not aquire the licences of the games to do that? Is that legal?
+AquaDonkey69 480p You're a madman.
+CivDung Ghyaahahaaha 0_0
Excellent video Jason. I was pretty impressed with the GBA games
+Radical Reggie I knew you would be!

@Mr Happy Ñ
@Mr Happy ¿
Piko is a choice company. I love what they do. Great vid as always.
Hi
BTW: Their website is PikoInteractive.com if you want more information!
+MetalJesusRocks have you ever played cadillacs and dinosaurs?? it's a great beat em up.. much better than final fight and double dragon imo
+edec 16 That's straight video capture from the composite video cable from my SNES to the Elgato capture.
+MetalJesusRocks thanks for this.
+MetalJesusRocks So do You think Zelda is An action rpg too? I lost a discussion with some ignorants that doesn't accept my reasons to claim Zelda as an action rpg, maybe you could create a video someday to explain why You think Zelda is an Action Rpg too, people need to know our reasons. thanks
+MetalJesusRocks The main thing that bothers me about homebrews/re-released like this is for some reason people can't get labels to stick to a cart. This bothers the shit out of me considering it's typically a brand new product. 8:44 Noah's Ark 3D. Label is coming off on the top left already. I've noticed this problem for a while now and it's not just Piko. You would figure they would invest in some glue or something.
That 8-bit Cowboy Bebop T-shirt is absolutely amazing!
+Majin_Zed See you, Space Cowboy!
+MetalJesusRocks I need it. _Need_ it. Where2cop?
Water Margin is a rip-off of Knights of The Round.
+Jorge Mateus Yep, caught that too. They "reskinned" the sprites.
Yea you're correct, at first I thought it was a reskin of pirates of dark waters.
I noticed some Golden Axe elements as well
+Jorge Mateus Ya wow its just a reskin
+Jorge Mateus Yeah, for sure. I wonder if it is good.
I looked 7 minutes into this episode to realize I've been already watching it, and to find 2 comments of myself under this video....
The 19th Fighter I was thinking more like Golden Axe
That was cool of them to send you their games and to let you speak your mind about them (even saying you wouldn't buy some of them yourself!) Seems like a pretty good company.
Wow it's really cool how games are still being made for these great retro systems. That's crazy
Water Margin just looks like Chinese Golden Axe
PikoInteractive is doing god's work! I could cry!
These guys pose as legit but are not in the least, sure they got some licenses, but only to a few major titles, these guys where all wanted in several countries for a while for selling bootleg/chipped games for a seemingly legit company known as "Nordic Games", they are pretty good at making themselves seem legit, I remember how they began buying up cheap Super Street Fighter 2 cartridges (Japanese) for the Snes then basically stuck them in a EU cartridge, they did work for a while, until several consoles turned aflame and they disappeared as a result.
Simply put: These guys sell a couple of legit titles, and at times thousands of illegal copies (depending on their economy, these guys have done the same about 5/6 times before for over two decades, when consoles start breaking, then they spend the money and begin all over again under a new identity in a new country)
White Goodman really?
Kush Killa
Yeah, its their thing, they have done so for... At least a decade under different name, id say 20 years but I might be exaggerating.
Prove it or shut the fuck up, +Nero Angelo! Piko Interactive is nowhere NEAR as shitty as the people that piss you off.
I feel bad for people who had their console set on fire
If someone purchased the rights to Earthbound 64 and finished up the game, I would be willing to throw all of my money at it.
+radioactivechimp that would cost them a king's ransom likely, since Mother is such a legendary series, and are you sure that EB64 was even worthy of it's legacy?
+The Gaming Paladin Earthbound 64 is just one of those titles that has always fascinated me because of my love of the Mother series and how different it appears to be from Mother 3 on the gba. It would probably be a let down and might be better off as a mystery than a highly flawed game that was stuck in development hell for years.
radioactivechimp probably right about that.
No one got Mother 3 for N64.
Mother 3D got Cancelled.
The only Mother 3 that ever came out was for the GBA.
And Mother is an In-House Title.
It belongs to Nintendo.
That was nice to see the NUke Nukem on the video, I know it is a fraction of the original game and still not as fun as it should be, but back in the nineties we couldn't afford the new systems here in Brazil because they were too expensive, (video games are still very expensive around here) so at least Tec Toy, a very good Brazilian company created many different games for the old ones, like Street Fighter 2 for the Sega Master System and others.
If they can somehow get Starfox 2 for SNES, I will be excited.
+Pow3rh0use i doubt they get or can afford the rights
At this point you may have to settle for an overpriced reproduction
+Pow3rh0use Nintendo would own the license to that and I'd say they don't want to release a new StarFox game for SNES. Though it would be cool.
+Pow3rh0use i've played it, not really worth what nintendo will shill it out for, since Starfox is a big IP, it would likely cost them a king's ransom.
The Gaming Paladin
There hasn't been a new starfox game released since 2011, so the IP isn't as big as it once was (at least from Nintento's eyes). While it's not impossible, this company will need a large amount of capital and some more years under their belt.
I LOVE the production value to these. Great stuff!
Thanks for the video!
Water Margin is just a re-skined knights of the round arcade game which was ported to the SNES because if you look at the game with Percival you can see all the same skills and such.
Ecks™ Golden Axe
Russ Green If you look at the character models and stance it is no where close to Golden Axe.
Ecks™ : You beat me to the comparison! It is indeed Knights of the Round "with the serial numbers filed off", so to speak. But even a re-skinned Knights can still be tons of kick-ass game-playing goodness.
Sean Wilkinson It can but if it is the same game with a different background then you know what to expect in the end.
10:31 you trying to sneak some Atari footage in this?
They need to make something similar to golden axe (with game of thrones characters).
I am not surprised that these didn't work on the Retron5. The Retron5 uses stolen emulators to play the games. It dumps the cart and runs the rom every time you play. Retrousb and other sites that sell this kind of stuff usually have a disclaimer so that Retron5 users know it won't work.
In the first game when the enemies catch fire, I think they look just like in Street Fighter II when you get hit by a fire attack.
That Dorke & Ymp game looks really good.
I remember reading about this game in a swedish Nintendo magazin in the early 90ies. it was being made by two swedish guys and it looked really promising. But i never heard of it after that. untill now! Man how cool is this!
+berugaslabor This guy know whats up!
did you notice that he didn't attempt to pronounce the name of it?
Am I the only one who thinks the body of main character looks a lot like Sonic's, he even runs like sonic does
Duke Nukem on genesis despite being inferior in almost every way is just one of those things you want because it's just cool to have. It's cool to see, and to know it exists. It's something I think would be cool to have in my collection if I was focusing on genesis. Such an odd thing to exist it's hard to say no to.
Very awesome video! But all those titles games are terrible, not even worth to have or play as a collector :( . But good job metal Jesus ! You do rock!
I believe that the game Water Margin was based off of a famous Chinese book that serves as the inspiration for the Suikoden series.
Looks like it took a page out of Golden Axe
It's one of a few books making up the canon of chinese literature. I would say shocking he doesn't even recognize the suikoden(japanese name) connection but then again gamers aren't usually well read.
The company's name is Pico?
Hmm, is their rival called Boku?
was going to order one of their games, but 30$ for shipping.... hell no
+cyrus649 Are you in international location? if you are in the US it should not be more than 6 USD
+PikoInteractive I live in the USA but the website after putting the info said 30
+cyrus649 Should be a bug on the cart. If you are still interested try it on an incognito tab, then make sure you pick USA (there is a button that says "change" under the Checkout button). Let me know if you still have any issues :D
+PikoInteractive do you have an eBay page?
Yes we have!
stores.ebay.com/retrotecus/
However prices are a big higher than the site to account for ebay fees.
Are you sure it's not "pie" ko? Isn't that a pi symbol in their logo?
+Will Bachinski It could be pronounced that way...but then again, I'll just blame my public school education...
+Will Bachinski Originally we've named the company to be pronounced "pie ko' however too many people called it piko that we were ok with it, mainly because we speak Spanish, and "Piko" pronunciation would be ok with us too.
+PikoInteractive while I have you here can I ask you a question? How is it that you go about securing the "rights" for these games? I guess I'm just skeptical that something with like Water Margin developed 20 years ago in China you were actually able to find the original developer and work out something with them. Plus these were never official releases anyway, are the copyrights and such even valid for bootlegs? Thanks!
Well this game is not a bootleg it is just an unlicensed game, like Accolade's carts on the Genesis or Tengen's on NES.
We actually acquired the rights of 8 Taiwan exclusive games from SuperFighter Team, which is a game publisher that does similar work than us, but have been around since the early 2000's. They have the rights of many Chinese video game properties, they've acquired complete Chinese game developers.
More info here:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Fighter_Team

+PikoInteractive gotcha! Cool thanks
Awesome that old consoles receive love too.
met you at easy-street a couple weeks ago, great review man!!
Just a little correction MetalJesus. The game Duke Nuken wasnt licensed to Piko. Tectoy doesnt sell then the license, they are pirating this game and Tectoy haves the license to this tittle as well as it is a Sega endorsed game, as well as any other Tectoy exclusive game. Tectoy have a license from SEGA to produce games that is still valid. Just to let you know! Keep up with the good work! I love your channel!
Why doesn't Sega allow TecToy to sell their games to places OTHER than the South American/Brazilian market then, +NERDestino?
has anybody ever considered that this guy might actually be Jesus?
They do not have those licences, it's a lie. I was selling my repros and they contacted me, i have asked some of those to proof (they asked me to stop selling due to this) and they never answered me back
Actually, I'm pretty sure they DO own the licenses. There are RUclips interviews with the owner where they talk about the cost of acquiring those titles.
They got many licenses, but not all of those whose games they sell, lets just say that I worked with them, they are good at making it seem like they got the rights to everything here, which they do not. 3D Noah`s is an example, they have not paid all of the rights, yet still sell the game as if they did. (The team behind this used to call themselves "Nordic games" and sold unlicensed and foreign games somehow modded to work on EU/US consoles all of which overheated them, the team disappeared years ago and have resurfaced now, ask my brother, he works with them still, their identities are fake)

Just as i supposed, thanks for sharing it angelo
TheDeath Manuele
My pleasure, glad I could be of help.
First game is a copy of "Knight of the Round Table" for SNES
+Roberto Romero Carmona Inspired of it, it's not a re-skin nor a romhack, it's a fully brand new game.
Locomamonk I used the term copy because the movements of the characters are the same. I am not an expert, even less in a language that is not my mother language haha
+Roberto Romero Carmona
I agree - it's definitely the same game, albeit with reworked visuals. They probably reused the original code.
knights of the round was ported to nes from arcade... so ha! ???
not a re-skin? ARE YOU BLIND??? LOOK AT THE CHARACTERS AND THE ANIMATIONS!!! they also use characters from final fight and samurai shodown3 (the final boss)
Haha I still have my Brazilian Mega Driver (Genesis) copy of Duke Nukem 3D from when I was like 10 years old. It was fun back then, but playing a FPS with a 3 button Genesis joystick was a real challenge.
I'd like some new games on the Game cube. Am I the only one?
No you're not
+Tails Thecartoongamer respect my good man, high five!
Hell yeah, GameCube was one of my favorite systems. The penical of graphics that I dreamed of as a child coming to life. Lol
Comments: Water Margin looks like it was totally inspired by Knights of the Round. That Duke Nukem 3D release looks like it's based on Wolfenstein 3D. Also, I am able to find it among many other new Genesis releases available on Ebay from Russian sellers, fully translated into Russian and featuring Russian box and manual. I wonder about Piko's licensing of these things, since they're obviously being manufactured somewhere in the East (Russia and/or China) as well. I've seen many new Famiclone games from Chinese sellers on Ebay also.
+Eric Wood Those are just pirates, usually chinese and russian markets don't care or respect copyright. We do license everything we put out :D.
I like how for Dorke & Ymp you never actually refer to it by name. I'm assuming you weren't sure how to pronounce it, so you just didn't. LOL
2019 and already Anguna Warriors of Virtue for GBA is I available.
Hopefully, they’ll publish more for the GBA. If you’re listening, Piko, I’d love to have Shadowrun and Zombies Ate My Neighbors on the GBA. 😃👍🏻
MetalJesusRocks, the Genesis is capable of doing great FPS games when used correctly. A member of our forums is porting Wolfenstein 3D to the stock Genesis, and it's looking very impressive. Check it out!
Here's a video of it in motion:

Water Margin is definitely a re-skin of Knights of The Round by Capcom.
I've been waiting for someone to review these games.
I did enjoy your video
Thank you sir 😎👍🎸
Take this with a grain of salt, because I neither own the RetroN 5 nor any Piko Interactive release, but I'm guessing that the reason the games work on the original consoles, but not the RetroN 5 is due to the games being designed with copy protection in mind, to prevent pirates from buying their games, dumping them, then releasing them online. I remember another team releasing games for retro consoles, Super Fighter Team, releasing a translation for Beggar Prince on the Sega Genesis, and making it a point to design the cartridge with features that would block ROM dumping.
Dude awesome video. Didn't know games where stilling being made for the old system... Thanks \,,/
I already have Duke Nukem 3D for the Genesis (Mega Drive) imported, I like the game, plays smother than Doom on the SNES, it plays a bit like Zero Tolerance... but it is crazy hard... good if you use cheat codes. Biggest problem, is not enough ammo, your biggest challenge is being careful not to waste bullets, and-or running out of bullets.
If they didn't change the difficulty level for this version then this game is not for everyone.
MJ, ur shirts are always badass..especially love this one. See you, space cowboy.
really nostalgic video because today we dont see anymore the manual in the game, so that was pretty cool metal jesus!!!
I wonder when Piko will do DS games also. Excellent video, I am interested in the Gameboy advance games. 95% of my play time is handheld which is why I love the Nintendo switch. At least when I can use the TV I can see my games on a big screen. Sadly I didn't see these games for sell on their website.
The reason Water Margin: A Tale of Clouds and Wind is called that is because it's based on an ancient Chinese novel called Water Margin. Water Margin was also the basis for the Suikoden series.
Dude, learn to open those cardboard boxes! As a collector and lover over minty packaging that was hard to watch. Great vid otherwise.
Wow, I didn't know that there are so many new games for my beloved Super Nintendo out there. I need to go shopping, bye.
your channel has a lot of interesting content, I subscribed.
I love your videos! im always checking your channel for new vids every week here from Puerto Rico, keep up the good work!
So "Jesus" enjoyed "Noah's Ark".
That is pretty fucking metal! \m/
It must be a pain to program for those old systems! :D
Hell yea PS1 games... someone need to make them lol
New TurboGrafX games is actually a thing! gooddealgames.com/inventory/Turbografx.html I've heard some good things about Mysterious Song in particular.
Also: Super 3D Noah's Ark is actually just Wolfenstein 3D, but with different sounds and music. The levels and controls are exactly the same, so it's no surprise that it was still enjoyable. Says a lot about the game, and how it's able to be engaging at its core even with a new skin. And about you, for being able to look past its surface.
Awesome stuff! Thank you for sharing this with us...I just ordered two games!!
