- Опубликовано: 15 окт 2024
- Shantae Advance: Risky Revolution is back in development after nearly 20 years! This lost Shantae sequel fills in the gaps between the original Shantae (2002) and Shantae: Risky's Revenge (2010), and will be released on an actual GBA-compatible cartridge from WayForward and Limited Run Games! Planned for release in 2024! wayforward.com...
Never thought I'd get to live to see a GBA game being released in 2023 and I'm all for it.
2024, but still...
+ Goodboy Galaxy, but IDK if it's going to release this year.
There's a surprising amount of Gameboy games being released in the new twenties, I've seen news of them ever since we were on quarantine
What the actual WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
i mean they made a game boy grimace game a month ago..
Matt seems like a really nice guy here. It doesnt even feel like I'm watching a lead game director, it feels like I'm watching a friend discuss their passion project.
This feels like I traveled through time in the gaming industry
Fr
Reminds me of those old Valve/Bungie interviews about their latest game
Yes! That's how it feels for me too!
I thought it’s gonna be a new Shantae game or some Seven Sirens DLC packs, but a finished version of the one unreleased Shantae game everyone almost forgot about? WOW! ❤
It is a new game the original demo was an hour long but they decided to go back and make the full game.
Still a W
@@CyberAztecAbsolutely!
It's not a ROM, its a Cartridge with the full version of Shantae Advance
@@Fancy2209RealI hope it also comes to Switch, PS5, and Steam.
Wow that's actually insane. You guys brought back a completely defunct/lost game from the grave and made it even better. And as an indie company this is HUGE!
We need to all support this. Like even if for some crazy reason I never play it I have to purchase it for the culture
Was never lost, as mentioned in the video they had everything saved for all this time. That's what preservation actually is btw, even if it was never actually released to the public it being archived is all that matters.
@@qactustick Then what's the point of preservation? Is art preserved if it's locked in a box where nobody can see it? Are movies preserved if nobody can see them again? Or is just the knowledge that they exist enough? You don't preserve something by taking away from fhe public. You aren't preserving plants if you lock their seeds in a box and never allow a single one to be planted. Functionally, what's the difference between an unpreserved work and a preserved one that none can access?
@@blueberrimuffin6682 I'm guessing the difference is that something that's "preserved" is being willingly withheld, while something that's lost only has hope of being found by accident.
@@qactustick I said defunct/lost, it was lost to the public and any known history about Shantae to my knowledge. Just because something is archived doesn't mean it can't potentially be lost or forgotten entirely. Do you have any recollection of what ‘lost media’ even is or are you just trying to make unreasonable claims just for the sake of it?
Didn’t think I’d be seeing a GBA game in 2023! But that being said I do miss the GBA era, so maybe this’ll be nice.
Believe it or not, it isn't the only upcoming GBA game from my understanding. Look up "Good Boy Galaxy"!
@@Rainbowmon Hime's Quest was another GameBoy game released recently. I'm still waiting for that to arrive.
@@Hauntaku Haven't heard of that one; thanks for telling me about it!
@@Rainbowmon Fun Fact: Shantae was inspired by Capcom's Aladdin game.
@@orangeslash1667 ...Okay? Not sure how that relates to the conversation you were replying to...
This is awesome and I hope it will get at least a digital release on consoles too. It would be a shame if this was only limited to the old original hardware.
Probably gonna have to wait for someone to dump the cartridge online to play it. If no digital release is planned.
@jedipow it'll get dumped immediately given how easy it is, modded Wii with GC link cable, R4 or Flasher, unless they manage to block dumping with the ROM chip's security or some DRM encryption of the ROM itself which would be a waste of time and money when it's cracked with the 23 years of system knowledge & exploits built up by the community
They're going to have to, especially if they make it where the cartridge is limited to being sold at certain stores, and the fact that not everyone owns a GBA, and those systems aren't being made anymore, and aren't being sold in any store except for used ones at certain stores.
So yeah, digital releases like on Steam or Nintendo Switch Online (especially since they are putting out GBA games on the console) will have to be a thing.
They'd be stupid if they didn't release it otherwise too. Only collectors are interested in getting those original cartridges, but everybody else wants to play it as well. I'm sure there will be a release on modern consoles too.
This has Switch Online written all over it.
Amazing! Reminds me a lot of _Metroid Dread_ in how it was abandoned for a long time, but once again being made for the modern day, so I'm really looking forward to seeing how it turns out!
Metroid dread wasn't good. AM2R was way better.
@@kennyryan4173 The game to compare AM2R to is Samus Returns (and it is better). Dread is a completely different game.
@@kennyryan4173 The game to compare AM2R to is Samus Returns (and it is better). Dread is a completely different game.
My mind has officially been blown, I had no idea a shantae advance sequel was in the works before the risky revenge sequel we heard about; what an unexpected surprise; I’m glad Matt and his team were finally to get it released after all these years.
This is the best fan service ever Wayforward is so cool. I am 100% picking this up
And that says something, considering that's what they're known for, lol
Definitely a buy on my list. I was very impressed with the video demo I had since showcasing the first dungeon years ago.
I am 100% playing the dumped rom because I do not support the artificial scarcity of Limited Run Games
@@CosmizEve When selling indie games it makes sense to me that they'd not want to overproduce and instead limit their sales to pre-orders - securing a profit. I bought River City Girls from them and didn't have any issues but maybe I'm just out of the loop on the distaste for them.
@@Farkonso They've become pretty disliked in recent years. I've scrolled passed various videos ranting, but I never watched them because they're all super long! But I guess the gist is what NotSoClearcut said, but at the same time what you said is also true. Like everything in business (and life) It's all just a big balancing act.
IIRC though, they don''t do reprints, which is total BS.
I always wondered what this game would've been like fully completed. And now, (assuming I can find a GBA somewhere,) I finally get to find out. Thank you so much, Wayforward for biding your time and taking this opportunity.
Good luck with that.
Same
If you want something cheaper, use a Nintendo, DS
I lost my GBA 15 years ago lol. I might have to resort to emulation on this until it comes to modern platforms. Maybe will use retroach to run it on my steamdick.
@@toonzelda3353steamdick huh…
Oh wow this is so interesting! Its like reviving lost media. Im especially hyped about the fact we will get to see Shantae meeting her friends for the first time! I always assumed she met them off screen.
You're saying this is the origins? So, she already met Rottytops before the first game? Strange, I thought that was the first time those two met.
@@HauntakuI think they're actually saying this is the first time that Rottytops meets Sky and Bolo, and maybe the first time they meet each other?
"Sick! I always wondered what this game would have been like!"
*Limited Run is involved*
"I hope they release it digitally!"
I hope the rom will be dump
@@sundownkids6631 It will be released on a physical GBA cart so it will be dumped 100%. I plan to get it and will dump it as well. I always back up my retro games for emulation and flash cart use. In fact, I'm willing to bet you'll find the ROM online the first day people get their hands on physical copies.
@@sundownkids6631it’s not a question of if so much as when
I hope they release it physically on Switch.
This is astonishingly cool! Can't wait to experience this lost story! GBA games always have that really amazing and nostalgic feel to them, and its awesome to see Shantae back in sprite form!
I really hope it releases this year and on the switch ( and other platforms) too. The only shantae games I don't have is the original and seven sirens and cannot wait to get them too.
Couldn't agree more! However, since it's gonna be a Limited Run exclusive, I'm kinda worried about the game's availability and affordability for an European gamer like me. As much as I'd love to get to play this as a Shantae fan, I might end up just watching the game's walkthrough on YT. Though a walkthrough watch session of a Shantae game that was almost lost forever will definitely be worth it!
Unfortunately there might not be availability so I'll probably have to wait until they release the game digitally.
Hello kuutti
@@alphonsejohnson5601Same hope it gets a switch release at some point too! I own all the Shantae games both physically and digitally on switch so would totally pick this up! I lost my old Game Boy Advance decades ago lol. So won't be able to get the physical cartridge of this.
Holy cow! What a story! The wayforward lore is crazy! I can’t believe this game is actually going to come to fruition!
I always wondered what that GBA game would have been like if it had come out back then. Now we are finally going to get the chance to find out. Thank you so much guys! I can't wait!
A professional game! There are a lot of indie games released in the last years :P
@@erik19borgnia Wayforward is an indie game studio
@@Popskittycat_Official I guess you're right. What I meant is that they are more experienced in game development.
Wayforward keeps making Shantae lighter and lighter each game
I didn't even know there WAS a GBA Shanate game that never released, And I certainly wasn't expecting any announcments today for one, but I am all for it.
There was also one planned for the ds that never came to be before the one that ultimately ended up completely scrapped
Love Shantae and will definitely pick this up, BUT PLEASE, release this physically on current gen too! I need this along with all my other switch Shantae games for a complete collection!
Samme!
That’s awesome! I hope it’s released on modern platforms as well.
I have the biggest grin on my face right now, and my boss doesn't know why. You've created a very awkward scene at my workplace and I can't thank you enough for it. As a Shantae fan from the GBC days, this brings so much joy to my heart. I can't wait to get my hands on it, whether my boss and I are still on speaking terms or not.
At long last. The GBA game we’ve all wanted to experience! Thank you to everyone in the development Team. I can’t wait to play and cherish it
I was amazed by micro mages, so if Wayforward is up to doing something like that on a GBA with the Shantae series, I'm excited for it.
Fantastic that they game is getting out.
Horrible that it'll be by Limited Run Games which means scalping, no protection against it, no reprints, delayed or just missing shipments and just general scamming.
It’s a return to form of sorts! Admittedly I haven’t been a huge fan of the creative direction the series has been going since Half Genie Hero, so I really hope this recaptures that old-school magic I miss so much.
I liked a lot Half Genie Hero, but i'm a bit dissapointed with seven sirens
@l.h.1429 The bonus content/extras was what helped Half-Genie Hero standout, but unless you get the complete edition it’s all paid DLC (a trend I sincerely hope they don’t continue). The Pirate’s Curse is still the magnum opus of the Shantae series visually, storytelling-wise, and gameplay-wise in my humble opinion.
HGH was really good. Seven Sirens could of been good if it wasn't so easy.
@kennyryan4173 agreed. I also don’t care for how watered-down and retconned the lore has become in these last two entries.
I cannot believe Risky Revolution is finally becoming real! I’ve always wanted to play it ever since I saw the demo footage years ago and now that time has come!
I am SO THRILLED that this is finally happening!!! The original was my favorite GBC game to speedrun, and now I can't wait until I can give the GBA title the same treatment. Hope development goes great!
This feels like a literal dream come true. I've always hoped yall would return to the ideas ya had back when you were tryin to get Shantae out. The moving world concept seemed super neat, so I'm lookin forward to tryin this out!
This is immensely cool.
I've played a few of the Shantae games and planned to experience them all in chronological order at some point. It's nice to know that this lost chapter will be available then.
Bruh, I'm about to start crying tears of happiness, because 2024 is going to be the best year for gaming to me. 😭
Also I hope that this game will release on PS4, PC, and other consoles, I don't think if I still have a GBA. 🙏
I'm sure they will eventually. It'd be kinda weird to only release it on a 22 year old console.
I know right? Only way for us to play it is on modern systems or unless you still have a functioning GBA (my past systems aren't working anymore and I expect out of print systems being priced high on eBay and such).
I just have to wait for a modern port release or I just miss out on this (and I have every Shantae game so far thanks to being released on Switch).
And plz let this be released on switch
@@dragon1130 Which I hope does happen, as I am probably not going to buy from Limited Run Games after seeing reviews that say they are not a company to order from, even if they do make physical releases of digital-only releases (which would probably see secondhand sales in the future).
@@dragon1130i agree it’s strange but I think the developers want to release the game in the same way we would have gotten it 20 years ago first to show what could have been.
Ok WayForward and Limited Run...Let's see if you can bring back the ORIGINAL ORIGINAL Shantae game that was originally planned for SNES and Playstation but never saw the light of day. I know mockups were made...but I wanna see it come to life.
THAT'S CRAZY AND I CAN'T WAIT
God bless these mad lads for starting up development for a game that was canned for ALMOST 20 YEARS!
Woo! After all of these years, it's great to see this happening! Congrats!
This is amazing! I love seeing the old Shantae art style so much! Though I have to ask, does this count as the 2nd or 6th entry to the series then?
Or is this Shantae 1 1/2?
Yes.
I would say this will essentially transform Shantae into a 6 piece series.
1. Shantae (GBC)
2. Shantae Riskys Revolution (GBA)
3. Shantae Riskys Revenge (DS)
4. Shantae Pirates Curse (3ds)
5. Shantae Half Genie Hero (Wii U)
6. Shantae Seven Sirens (Switch)
What I stated was the Shantae game for each console. I realize there has been ports to the switch of the older games but wanted to put out which console each one originated from.
I need thiss on switch and as a Limited Run Physical. Will totally be preordering that if it happens at some point. At some point will own the full physical Shantae collection and then replay through all the games!
@@toonzelda3353 Huh. There has been a Shnatae on every ninten console since the GBC.
HGH is almost the odd one out unless you account for Switch being a hybrid, in which case it just began the new trend of the games being on home console.
@@shupasopniOh yeah your right. They are on the older platforms as well. Almost forgot lol. The Riskys Revenge and the original are also playable on 3ds as well. But how to put it each device has a console specific Shantae game while containing ports of the previous games. If we are talking about non ports frankly and just the one game which started on that system then that is what have listed. There would be 6 in total. Shantae GBC originated on game boy color and while you can play it on pretty much any system after, the GBC is the system the game started on.
This is really cool, I'm glad you guys got the opportunity to release this.
This is a great achievement for the game industry
This is so cool, making the game for it's intended system instead of just making it a new game is sick, and the link cable mini game especially looks super fun!!
I never though Risky's Revolution would ever see the light of day. This is so huge!
New Shantae gameeeee
This is very cool to see. I did not know work was being done on a Shantae game between the first and Risky's revenge. I'm not a huge fan of LRG so I'm hoping very much this game get's a digital release. Best of luck with finishing up the game.
Dude, this is incredible to see happen. I love that there are people who put this much dedication into abandoned projects. Never thought this game would see the light of day. Keep up the great work team!
For many years ive been speculating the story of this game and even i wrote a little story, i am really excited for the release and the link cable is an awesome idea.
It’s really cool to that it finally gets its chance to shine
100% grabing this especially if its a physical copy. God i love a way forward. They realy just love the fans and there games
A new Shantae Game incoming? Awesome!
I gotta say, I love the way the game looks. Super exciting to have another pixelated Shantae.
Aside from everything else here, which i love so, SO much, I love the art style here! It's a weird cross between the HGH style and the style the first Shantae (and original promos of this game) had! I love it! Those are my two favorite art-styles the series has had, so seeing them smushed together, while surreal, makes me grin like a dumbass. Also, it's just cool to see the HGH style with more "realistic" proportions. I prefer a mix between stylisation and realism, and this style gets closer to that that HGH's.
Again, I'm so happy over this. I've been thinking something like this would happen for a long time, and I've never been more glad to be proven right, lol. I just hope that it's not GBA exclusive in the 2020s, (I mean, read that sentence for a MINUTE and try to take it seriously... that's just absurd...)
Hope this game gets ported to newer consoles later down the line so that players who don’t have a gba will get to experience this game.
I want it but limited run games puts me on the fence.
HOLY COW! I'm genuinely blown away by this! The only game I've ever purchased from limited run so far has been Scott Pilgrim but this might by my next one. The fact that it's releasing AND coming out on an actual GBA cart is amazing, hat off to you and your incredible team!
EXCUSE ME??¿????????????????
THAT'S WHAT I SAID!!!!
I know right!
As someone who just recently discovered Shantae and having finished the first 3 games so far, this is very exciting news!
Tente imaginara felicidade de quem esta desde 2004 esperando LOL
Thanks for making an awesome series, WayForward. 😎👍
I remember seeing the original Shantae Advance on websites years ago. Back in the days of dial up. It looked cool, then it disappeared, and now its back again. I played the original on GBC and I loved it. Thank you Wayforward.
I don't have anything to say. I'm rendered speechless. I love Shantae and have all the games. This just feels so good to see this unfinished game being brought back to life. ❤
So unbelievably happy about this.
OK, but what about those who don't have a GBA? Will the game be available on other platforms?
Problebly
This is genuinely a moment in History, A GBA Game IN THIS YEAR AND AGE, I LOVE THIS
This is gonna be interesting…could this be a release on Modern Consoles down the line?
Aside from that…this intrigues me!
"That's what I doooo" - and very well, might I add! Super excited for this!
I hope this game will receive an official release in the not-so-distant future. I own all the Shantae games on the Switch, and I want to play the missing chapter of Shantae.
Same! I own all Shantae games physically and digitally and would totally preorder a limited run physical for this if it also came to switch!
NO! I WANT DIGITAL RELEASE!
@@vgbcp3rs0na41 I want both honestly. I own all the Shantae games both physically and digitally. Would double dip. Dont get the hate for Limited Run honestly..
@@toonzelda3353 Probably because they don’t keep their physical versions on store shelves for long.
@@vgbcp3rs0na41 Makes sense but thats really the only complaint I can see. Other than that they still sell you a valid physical copy of a game. They are called Limited Run after all lol. Limited meaning first come first serve. Your just forced to get it soon if you want to or else miss out on it which sucks for the consumer. Just to get ahold of a physical copy you have to immedietely get it which isnt cool.
Oh WOW, wasn't expecting this when I got up from bed today, definitely looking WayForward to this!
I NEED THIS NOW ❤❤❤ I love the old artstyle…is just so good, not a fan of the new style. Please consider releasing a digital version for modern consoles too.
They have to release it digitally, as if they didn't that would be an insult to their fans
@@derektereve286 let’s hope so
@@aleee2323 I don't think there's any hope to it, as a lot of their fans can't or don't purchase from LRG, so a digital release would be the best way to guarantee that the game reaches all their fans
This is one of the most shocking bits of gaming news alongside the SMRPG remake. The fact you guys are going back to complete a GBA game and releasing it on the GBA is just insane in the best possible way! I wish more companies would do stuff like this, imagine if something like Mother 64 came out in the modern day, it’d be insane.
However, I feel like a modern console release is definitely needed. I worry about limitations of copies and seeing the game being hiked up on eBay, plus the piracy is going to be a huge issue to. I’d gladly pay for the game twice just to support you guys and I know I’m not the only one.
I hope it’ll get an eShop/Steam/etc. release too at least, this is wild! This is basically the Shantae equivalent of when Star Fox 2 was released!
Yeah but less of a dog 💩 game...
I still have my GBA. I'm so glad I decided to keep it.
Always down for more Shantae 👍
I’ve been in love with this franchise since I first saw the multi page spread in Nintendo Power (R.I.P), but I was never able to find a cartridge since the sales were so low. It still amazes me that this small plucky studio from back in the day has become a giant in the indie scene. I still remember seeing the announcement for riskys revenge and being so excited for a sequel to a game I still had not played at that point. Cheers to you Matt Bozon, and the rest of Wayforward; I hope you guys can continue the amazing work you’ve done the past 20 years for the next 20 years!
Nice! Can't wait to play it, hopefully it comes to current gen consoles at some point too.
It's so cool to see a game that was never released but was leaked finally get a chance to shine and on top of that being released for the original console, I really wish more developers would do this, there are so many games that were canceled but had a great potential.
This is actually so sick!!! I’m playing this the second I get the chance!!
This is so awesome! I'm glad that your team didn't scrap the GBA game idea or files.
This is incredibly cool, how often you see an unreleased game revived like this? I'm looking forward to play it
On Original Hardware no less.
This is why archiving/preservation is important.
Wow this is iconic! The art and fluidity of the gameplay looks beautiful. Releasing a GBA game in 2024 is next level 👏
Oh my god, I can’t wait to play this lost Shantae title!
I for one still hope Shantae will get her own animated series or movie!
And if there’s any video game adaptations Wayforward is considering, they should make a game based off Nickelodeon’s Glitch Techs, which is a cartoon all about gaming!
Or WayForward should consider acquiring the rights to Glitch Techs and revive the show.
Ngl we don't need a shantae series they always ruin it in video game adaptations
@@HarukoPlease sounds like someone didn’t like The Cuphead Show.
If reviving cancelled games is gonna be the new trend of the industry, then I'm all for it.
Other developers should watch this and take notes. THIS is how it's DONE.
I love WayForward. Best development house in the business, hands down! ❤
Let’s go!! Tell the untold tale of Shantae!!!
I was disappointment when the game is cancelled along time ago, but now that it's getting released next year the childhood in me is relieved and screaming right now. Thank you WayFoward and Matt Bozon!
Um sonho que esta prestes a se realizar!! Wu esperei por esse jogo desde o dia que vi a um vídeo com a demonstração, O dia esta chegando!! 😁
What?! Shantae Advance!!! I remembered the original trailer and getting bummed it was never released.
Spanky McGee better make the cut!
I love you guys for rescuing this lost game. I hope one day we can have a DS cartridge version of Risky's Revenge as well.
Is this going to get a digital release? After the LRG fiasco, I'm not keen to support them.
i honestly had always wondered why these characters suddenly new each other between the first and second games, wasn't expecting it to be because there was an entire game supposed to be there. glad it's gonna see the light of day.
Awesome!
I'm SO glad I still have my GBA!
HECK YES
I AM SO HAPPY THAT A NEW GBA GAME IS COMING OUT IN 2024 THIS IS SUCH A TREAT
Will this also see a release digitally on platforms? Or strictly as a GBA Physical game?
A GBA Game? In 2023?!
AND IT’S SHANTAE?!😃 I have a DS! Send it over, WayForward!
will a digital version be released on current gen platforms?
*That's actually amazing! I hope more companies can follow the example and release their unreleased games!*
First Metroid Dread and now Shantae Advance.
SOMEBODY PLEASE TELL ME THIS ISN'T A DREAM!!!
Whats next? Megaman legends 3?
Awesome! I hope she'll have more dance moves in this game than in the last one!
Sucks that it'll be for Limited Run Games after they've blocked me, banned me and will not allow me to buy anything from them nor will they reply to any of my messages.
I guess I won't be able to buy any games from you all anymore. Really sucks. I've been an avid fan of Shantae since my DSi days and fought hard for her in Smash. I'm heartbroken I will not be able to get anything from you all anymore.
Try using a VPN lol
I wouldn't want to buy from them anyway.
banned on what?
Could this be the return of the lad, the legend...
SPANKY JOE?!?!?
I'd love a new, good GBA game but I won't buy from Limited Run.
Wise choice! Hoping for an alternative manufacturer/distributor.
This is really cool! I' find it funny that they took an old project just lying around and was like, "Yeah, we'll finish it."
My only concern is that I hope this game is available on more than just the GBA cause I don't own a GBA and I really wanna play this.
Muito massa! Espero q lançem logo pro game boy advançe. Kkkk Mais espero q eles portem pros consoles atuais. Kk
It's always the coolest thing to see seemingly scrapped games come back. It's like Metroid Dread how people know about it but think it will never see the light of day and then out of nowhere it just does.
Can't wait to see what they do with this game with 20 years of experience.
